I just submitted a new GunSpinning VR release to the Windows Store with controlleurs support :) My detection code was bad, I don’t know why but the InputManager seems to not send any events.. I described a quick way to detect controllers here. 

To be able to use them you’ve to use a special version of Unity called MRTP. This version was published with Unity 2017.2f2-MRTP.

This Unity version does a good thing: It adds the controllers into the InputManager joysticks array. You can easily detech them by getting the name of all connected joysticks.

Input.GetJoystickNames();

And then with a simple forEach loop test the name of connected devices. A Windows Mixed Reality Motion Controller has the Spatial string in its name. So with the following code you can detect them:

public static bool MRControllersConnected() { var joys = Input.GetJoystickNames(); foreach (var joy in joys) if (joy.Contains("Spatial")) return true; returnf false; }

Edit

Hey guys it's me again! It looks like Unity 2017.2f3-MRTP has a small bug. When you start the game the first time without controllers, the joystick array is empty. When you put controllers on, the array contains 2 new entries. But if you put controllers off, the array still have the two entries...

This is a better way to detect controllers with Unity 2017.2f3-MRTP

var sourceStates = InteractionManager.GetCurrentReading(); foreach (var sourceState in sourceStates) if (sourceState.source.kind == InteractionSourceKind.Controller) return true;

This solution works great! (The edit is done).

Finally the game was sent to more than 10 testers, I wanted to thanks all of them :-D

The next step is now the final submission to the store, I have to make more tests with the Xbox version and it’ll be ok.

Hope to be in the store for everyone very soon!

I own a moving company chain and a large portion of our business comes directly from referrals from people or businesses that refer my business to their clients. Because of this I am in a constant pursuit on how I can obtain more referrals from the same sources. In the past I have done a challenge where I built in person relationships with 500 of these sources (I will link below). This time I had the idea to purchase 500 lottery tickets to give to 100 referral sources as a thank you and to encourage future referrals. This experiment is now complete and the results are tallied.I will detail the entire process below in text as well as link to the video that covers this entire process from start to finish and includes visuals on what exactly I sent in each package.Idea:To purchase 500 lottery tickets and mail these tickets to 100 referral sources in hopes of showing appreciation and increasing future sales per source.Process:Purchase 500 lottery ticketsPurchase 500 12" x 8" envelopesDesign and print thank you cardsPrint business cards and brochuresChoose 100 sourcesTally current sales from 100 chosen sourcesPrepare and mail out 100 packagesAllow one month to pass and tally resultsCost:500 lottery tickets: $520 (I intended on purchasing only $1 tickets but I bought the entire store out and had to buy some $2 tickets)Envelopes, cards, and brochures: $90Postage: $160Total cost: $770Results:During the one month period we booked $16,800 in sales directly from these 100 sources. This is a 32% increase over the same one month period before (around a 7.5x return on investment in increased sales).
