Portal 2 - Hydra not working?

[wccrawford]

I bought the Hydra when it first came out, and it worked great with Portal 2.

I recently tried to use my Hydra with Portal 2, and it doesn't make anything happen at all now. I verified that the Sixense DLC is still listed on my Steam account.

The Hydra itself works fine. I can even use the SDK and Unity and control things on-screen with it. It's only Portal 2 that is not working.

As far as I know all software, firmware and drivers are up to date.

I attempted to work with Razer's tech support via email, but after sending me in circles and asking me to do impossible things, and then sending me to the FAQ when I asked how, I'm giving up on them.

Please help me get this working again.

Do see a Portal 2 MotionPack logo at the main menu, or just Portal 2?

Did you ever add -nosixense to the commandline of Portal 2?

Did you try to verifgy game cache integrity through steam on Portal 2?

Wow, I feel really stupid now. That's exactly what it was. I had some issue long ago, and forgot about doing that.

Thank you so much.

We should've had a patch to day that fixed rebuilding and publishing issues found with the new DLC, but I don't think it has gone live yet.
