Too bad this wasn't made as an OpenXR API layer so that it could be used with existing software

[ipsum2 → charcircuit]

The great thing is that its open source, so you can add whatever niche APIs you want to it!

[charcircuit → ipsum2]

Why would I be the one to do that? I already have a pressure sensitive 6dof stylus that is compatible with openxr.

OpenXR isn't a niche API when you are dealing with 6dof input devices.

I know this might be shocking, but OP didn’t make this for you. There’s actually all sorts of people out there making all sorts of things without considering your specific needs

[bloopernova → cududa]

Please don't feed the troll. They're being deliberately argumentative.

[charcircuit → cududa]

Why are you using that tone? I never had the intention to use this. I am just stating that there is a missed opportunity that exists. Why are you implying that I want this as feature for me to use?

I'll chime in and say that OpenXR integration is a good suggestion, just not something I had the time/effort to implement (this is a university project, after all, and was focused more on the core tracking tech). I think people just took issue with the way you phrased your original comment.

Because you are the one who is complaining.

[bloopernova → grodriguez100]

Please don't feed the troll. They're picking fights on purpose.

It's open source so...
