XR integration

[krzysztofpniak]

Do you have any hints How can I integrate with @react-three/xr ? I would like to use it as it works by default with additional support of VR, when when enter VR is clicked. Any hints are welcome.

I'm also interested in integrating it with XR, but I haven't tried @react-three/xr yet. I'll give it a try when I get back to this project.

You would have to manipulate the camera returned from https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/renderers/webxr/WebXRManager.getCamera rather than the default camera. No other changes are needed.

Thanks, @CodyJasonBennett! Good to know!

@ErdongChen-Andrew in my project I got pretty stuck on this and the solution was to make sure you do
gl.xr.enabled = true; after you do the getCamera suggestion above or the headset wont follow movement or do any xr things

[ErdongChen-Andrew]

Thank you, @antpb ! I'll definitely keep that in mind while I'm working on XR!

@CodyJasonBennett How exactly do I do this?

Yo, glad this is being worked on, been trying to make it work myself using @react-three/xr but I'm not able to get the movement / rotation right.
I was able to get the camera connected, but I'd like to be able to use the vr controllers.

left controller joystick to move around relative to where im facing (click in to sprint)
right controller joystick for rotating left and right
a button to jump

I noticed there was controller support added but doesn't seem to work with the xr controls.

anyways big thanks for the library @ErdongChen-Andrew hope you get around to this soon :)

Hey thanks for the bumping this thread again, I love open source, I can contribute what I can but I know there are those who are better at doing this than me and I wish they can do what they can as soon as possible. Will keep you updated in the PR i plan to create.

How exactly would this work in XR? Using headset controllers? What about hands for example?
