SteamVR_UpdatePoses deprecation removes the controllers

[danksky]

There is no way to see the controllers with the current version of the SteamVR plugin. Even adding the Update Poses script to the Camera component in the [CameraRig] doesn't do anything because the script is automatically removed now with this message:

SteamVR_UpdatePoses has been deprecated - REMOVING
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)
SteamVR_UpdatePoses:Awake() (at Assets/SteamVR/Scripts/SteamVR_UpdatePoses.cs:14)
UnityEditor.HostView:OnGUI()

That's because the poses are updated in a way that means no additional component is necessary anymore. Working fine for me on Win10, SteamVR release branch, SteamVR plugin 1.2.2, Unity 5.6.0f3, 5.6.2p3, 2017.1.

I'm using 2017.2.0b4 and I only see the Vive wands in the editor scene window and not in game window.

Repro:

• Create a new Unity project and install the SteamVR Plugin 1.2.2
• Create a new scene
• Drag in the Steam [CameraRig] prefab
• Press PLAY
  Expected:
• in VR headset can see my Vive Controllers
  Actual:
• Can't see Vive controllers in VR, only in the editor scene window

Any ideas?

Further downgraded to Unity 2017.1 and still can't see the controllers in VR play.

Oh IGNORE ME! In turns out I had left the default Main Camera in the scene. That meant in VR I was seeing that camera and not the steam vr camera !!

I'm having the same issue as the OP. Any advice @bddckr ?

[BenLorantfy]

This is what happens when I launch the example scene and then hold the controllers infront of the headset,. They're not shown and they're grayed out in the inspector.

[BenLorantfy]

LOL never mind, my controllers were just in standby mode so they didn't show up.

[peterept]

LOL. Makes me feel less dumb about leaving the default Main Camera in my scene when I couldnt see my controllers.:-)

Same happening to me, my controllers are grayed out in unity editor, I'm using Oculus Touch, but the SteamVR home can detect my oculus touch, unity can't, I try shaking the controllers, pressing all the buttons, but no response

As a note, the current instructions in the quickstart.pdf included with the Steam VR plugin for setting this up state to add the Steam VR_Camera script to the existing Main Camera in the scene. This causes the controllers to not correctly render. Instead, as described, removing the Main Camera and then dragging the [Camera Rig] prefab into the scene causes the controllers to correctly render.

The PDF should be updated to reflect this, or the Steam VR_Camera script should be updated to correctly render the controllers if added to an existing camera in the scene.

This was tested using Unity 5.6.3p4.

Same problems with 1.2.3 and at least windows 7. Even with a new project in any version of Unity from 5.6 to 2017.3 and just loading SteamVR's demo scene, the controllers don't show and the following errors show up:

Failed to load IVRRenderModels interface version IVRRenderModels_005
UnityEngine.Debug:LogError(Object)
RenderModelInterfaceHolder:get_instance() (at Assets/SteamVR/Scripts/SteamVR_RenderModel.cs:90)

I am encountering an issue identical to the one above by @gevarre
