  • Hi David,

    I've just started using the new mrtk_release branch of the MRTK github repo. But I found out through the release notes that there are no motion controller models. Is there a way to load the standard motion controller model into my scene without GTLF? Not too keen on using the "gizmos" that currently show

    Thanks,
    David
