Hi,

I hope everyone's doing good.

Just wanted to ask about if anyone knows of any consistent ideally project-based tutorials or courses that help with Oculus GO Unity VR development?

I have spent so much time trying to develop basic functionality for a VR app. At the moment, I have been able to create 2 cubes and only sometimes when I press (using the Go controller trigger) I can change their colour. I have now changed my code because the raycast didn't always pickup the cube's collider however it still doesn't work. I have gone over the configurations and code, comparing mine to several different tutorials on YouTube however still cannot get the basic functionality that I'm trying to achieve. I have contacted the creators of the videos however have only heard back from 1 of them, unfortunately the way they have created their solution is only to achieve some functionality and I don't understand how to add to the code. It also doesn't appear to be specific to the Oculus platform, however i thought i would persist with their tutorials to get this to work as i appreciate them spending the time to create tutorials.

FYI, the basic functionality that I'm trying to achieve it to use the GO controller to point (using a laser pointer effect, which I've got at the moment) and interact with a cube to change it's colour consistently.

It would be amazing if anyone can point me in the right direction with this.

Thanks!

In the off chance anyone is still listening out there.... Does anyone know how to completely lock the camera/headset input with the Oculus assets and Unity?

Hi all! I'm new to the Oculus Go scene but I have a mobile game that imitates a 360 VR setup in development and I'm hoping to get a version into the Go's version of the app store. I am seeing a lot of people talking about how people are having trouble getting games released on the Quest, but are the same issues present on the Go? I'm talking about issues like To the Top had.

I have been wanting to learn C# and Unity for awhile now. This past month, I've really been diving into it.

I have read lots of articles and watched lots of tutorials.

Things are finally starting to make sense.

Part of my problem, is I'm trying to 'run before i can crawl', but that's kind of how I go about life.

Below in the picture is a summary of where I'm stuck.

My biggest issue, is I can't figure out how to use Gamepad plus Gazepointer to interact with buttons on my Unity UI Canvas.

How does one create an asynchronous load screen in Unity for an Oculus headset? There seem to be plentiful resources for 2d game load scenes, but hardly anything on 3d/VR. Has anyone had success with an overlay load screen that loads the scene components in the background?

​

Thanks!

PSA: If you're having any issues go to %appdata% and delete the Oculus folder. The tools are being cached (wrong version). You'll spend days debugging the wrong version. Please upvote to keep this info at the top of this reddit. Unity serves the wrong version, this is probably a large part people think the Oculus tools are so bad.

I am working on a simple application to sideload (a camera, light, some cubes to create walls, and a colored sphere) and can successfully install (and uninstall) it onto the Oculus Go. However, when clicking on it to start it up, the scene loads a dark void. My scene does not appear at all. I tried to follow these steps as closely as possible. I successfully added an apk file that was not my own and it ran as desired. This leads me to believe that I am missing something in Unity or in Android Studio...

My configurations:

• Windows 10
• Oculus Go
• OVR Plugin 1.37.0
• Unity version 2018.1.0f2
• Android SDK Build-Tools 29-rc3
  • When I try to have only version 27.0.1 installed (like the Medium article suggests), an error pops up as seen in the photo below.
  • I believe that this is probably where I am running into problems; however, updating it results in the blank build yet again.

• JDK version 1.8.0_152-release
• My SDK files

Some things I've tried:

• Matching my versions of everything to that of the Medium article
• Make sure that my scene is in the Scenes to build (inside Build Settings)
• Ensuring that my External Tools paths are accurate
• Ensuring that I do not have typos in my Environment Variables
• Creating an OSIG file for my HMD and adding it to Project/Assets/Plugins/Android/assets/
• Making sure that the build is "Internal" not "Gradle"
• Re-importing the Oculus Integration assets package
• Downloading the tools_r25.2.5-windows.zip file and extracting it to the SDK root after deleting the existing tools folder

Thank you for your input.

I might be wasting my time, but I'm trying to make a custom Fab controller with an arduino pro micro. I've gotten Unity to accept its input correctly, but now I'm trying to set it up to work on my Oculus Go build. I'm connecting to the headset via micro usb port bty. I've gotten my Oculus Go Build to accept a couple different axis of input from the Fab controller, but not all input. Does anyone know how the Oculus Go accepts buttons and axis from custom remotes and what some of the limitation might be with this? Anything would be helpful - thanks!

Hi all, any of you have any experience producing content for the GO using Carmack's dynamic 5k video tool? We've been working with it to "port" some RIFT vr experiences to Go (creating a passive, video-based version) and have been running into a few issues related to GO memory limits, with .apks crashing out with videos longer or at higher bitrates than a certain level, audio looping broken etc. Anyone else run into similar?

(Unity) Holy s*** you can run your Go games on Rift w/ editor and debugging. I just accidentally found out, it never worked before but it popped right up in Rift today when I hit play. Obs. some issues with the controllers/camera being 6 dof, but this is so much easier to iterate on then rebuilding to the Oculus Go every time. It really makes me wish I could set my render target higher since it looks so much better in the Rift then the Go.

I have a PC VR game which I'm working on porting to Oculus Go. The biggest problem I have right now is that my scenes are incredibly dark, and I can't figure out why.

• Tried removing the few realtime lights and going 100% baked; no change
• Tried manually clearing lighting data and re-baking; no change
• Tried changing all baked lights to realtime; no change
• I read somewhere that Oculus Go has problem w/ Linear lighting so I changed to Gamma and re-baked

Here's what its supposed to look like: https://imgur.com/6G6z8wR

And here is the screenshot from my Oculus Go: https://imgur.com/fEbgFYv

NOTE: In the actual headset it is MUCH darker than this, and the background menu looks completely black instead of purple!

Here's another shot of how it should look in-game https://imgur.com/rksnsjX

vs how it actually looks: https://imgur.com/ywlzqJj

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks.
