Super good news in the Firedrake world.\u00a0 Today we got a clean GearVR build out.\u00a0 \u2026\u00a0 and it was a process\/fight for sure!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We had all sorts of trouble getting the mobile SDK configured right with Unity, a process I thought would talk about two hours, that ended up taking about 10 hours, over the course of two days.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then there were all sorts of problems getting the oculus_device OSG file for the Samsung s7\u2019s we are using to test on, all configured up.\u00a0 That was a hunt and peck exorcise in figuring out just exactly what the directory structure was all about.\u00a0 but in the end, it took six or seven tries, fixing something on each try, till we\u00a0 got a build out.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now, there are all sorts of issues yet to over come.\u00a0\u00a0 The game geomotrty needs fixed in places.\u00a0 Skybox and lighting clean up and the like and the controller schema is really wonky still.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We used RFPS prefab\u00a0 from the Unity store to get our character controller working, but from the start that has had some issues with the gamepad controller mapping right.\u00a0\u00a0 It works perfectly in the PC version and in testing the VR in Unity on the dev PC\u2019s, but once ported over to the Samsung and with the blue tooth controller.\u00a0 Things only half work.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019m sure someone with way more C# experience then I could figure it out in an hour or so, but the issues have plagued me since day one.\u00a0 Oh well.\u00a0 We\u2019ll figure it out somehow.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I had secretly hoped that the new Mobile SDK for Oculus would just \u201cmajically\u201d fix the problem, but no luck.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Anyway, now onward to level testing in the GearVR\u00a0 (our first target platform release.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
