Hey

I have trouble to find how to customise the basic hands and lasers for headsets

Just having no more laser would be great

raycaster=“showLine: false;” and/or cursor=“fuse: false; rayOrigin: mouse;”> doesnt seems to work

I guess its possible as there is no more laser in Wol project

Thanks !

Hi! You’re looking for the hand-controls component from A-Frame.

Hi George and thank you for quick reply !

I tried this already but I cant override the default one
Even if I try to setup a new one it is just build on top of the default one

Would you mind showing your code?

Sure we can use the A-frame World template :

  <a-light type="ambient" intensity="0.5"></a-light>

    shadow>
  </a-box>

  <a-plane
    height="2000"

    rotation="-90 0 0"
    material="shader: shadow; opacity: 0.67"
    shadow>
  </a-plane>
</a-scene>

I tried raycaster=“showLine: false;”

I found this yesterday for custom texture on hands where @joshmao used threeJS (I didnt tried yet) but I still need some help to control the lasers display

Thank you again !
