I unchecked 'Enable Update' and 'Enable Fixed Update'. Still no hands. I do have controllers and all the buttons move in VR. I will continue through the tutorial and the series with just the controllers. It would be nice to have hands though.
I am facing problems in using the new SDK(V38). I need to implement Grab with hands and controllers and also need to move characters in the 3d world. but for interaction, I need to attach "InteractionOVRCameraRig.cs" to OVRCamera. and for movement, I need to attach "OVRCameraRig" to OVR camera. and I can use only one. please help
For those wondering why the InputOVR component is different now and no longer has references to the controllers and hands: Just delete the OVRCameraRig and InputOVR from your scene and search for and add the OculusInteractionSampleRig to your scene, this has everything already set up for you :)
Dude, you just solved a major issue for me. For anyone having problems with the Universal Render Pipeline (URP), just use this asset that mike mentioned instead of doing what is suggested in the tutorial above and it will be working flawlessly. Thanks!!
@@karolledzinski710 My experience with hand tracking is a lot like when I first started using the XR Interaction toolkit. I feel Oculus interaction hand tracking needs time to develop to become less of a pain to use and work with. In contrast the XR Interaction Toolkit has now fixed a lot of the stuff that made it really awkward to use, but does lack hand tracking for obvious reasons.
As others have pointed out: The "Transformable" script is now called "Grabbable". Be sure to drag that component to the "Pointable Element" field inside the "Grab Interactable" script. Then your controllers will be able to grab that pesky cube 👍
I added Grabable and Grab Interactive to the cube I need to lift, and assigned the cube itself to Grab Interactive > Pointable Element and Grab Interactive > Rigidbody But I still can't lift the cube. Do you know what the problem is?
I enabled OculusInteractionSampleRig>OVRCameraRig>TrackingSpace>LeftHandAnchor>LeftOVRHand>OVRSkeleton>EnablePhysicsCapsules, but I couldn't pick up the cube only because it was pushed by my hand.

In SDK 42.0 The [Grabbable] property in [Grab interactable] script is replaced by [Pointable Element]. So you need to drag the [grabbable] into [Pointable Element]
Quick note to anyone who has invisible hands when hand-tracking. If you are using URP, you need to update the render materials. I was expecting bright pink hands but instead they were just invisible until I converted the materials
OVRCameraRig would not be accepted as the reference rig by OVRInputs. (v38 of Oculus Integrations.) This is because OVR Inputs expected an "Interaction OVR Camera Rig". So I looked that up in the package and it was a little script. Adding that to the OVR Camera Rig made it possible to reference in OVRInputs. And I could continue the tutorial from there. Another note is "Transformable" scripts are already deprecated, replaced by "Grabable".
Michael Odland - Your comment helped me solve the issue. I was wondering if you made the hands grab objects after replacing "Transformable" with "Grabbable" ?
If you still can't grab the object by hand, select the InputOVR from the scene then go to the input data provider update component and make sure to untick Enable Update & Enable Fixed update options.
Valem: It is MUCH MORE RECOMMENDABLE to show how to do all of that with only Unity and minimal necessary Oculus software. That way the tutorials will actually stay correct more than a week.
Hello Valem, there are errors coming up as soon as I integrate the InputOVR and I dragged the OVRCameraRig into the InputOVR Config. OVRCamerRig as i Press play 4:25 -> "ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index" (2x ControllerInteractors and 2x HandInteractors) ... I dont get further. Any help?
@@williamebbesen6256 There is no need to care about the error here. when you have set up your controller and hand grab interactor later on, the error will disappear itself.
Hey, I'm a total noob in Unity and VR, but I found a fix that worked for me with the disappearing hands. I applied the changes above, but it didn't work (still do these). After that, I went into the OVRCameraRig > OVR Manager > Quest Features and changed Hand tracking support to 'Controller and Hands' and V1 of the version. This might seem obvious but before I was able to use the finger gestures in the game without the hands showing up, which seemed like the hand tracking is enabled. I hope this helps :)
I had a bit of work to do to make the modifications needed to work with v41, but I got it all working. It is impressive (not in a good way) how much Oculus (Meta ugh...) likes to change the SDK API between versions. A bit ridiculous if you ask me. We're at version 42 now?!?? It seems that stability with the API is merited by now. Oh well, welcome to VR development. But your videos are great, my friend. Keep up the good work!
hi guy, can i refer to your settings for version 41? I really need that, because the 2 versions are so different, and it's really hard for me! Please!! Thank you so much!
Damn it, I was doing your other tutorials on your (main?) channel, and found this one by mistake... this is so much easier ;-; can't wait for the next ones
Hi Valem, thanks for the tutorials! Unfortunately for those starting now the new version 40 of the Oculus Integration is completely different (much more than the 38). For example the inputOVR has only one child (HMD), it no longer has "Hands" and "Controllers" like in your videos. You've already covered the changes with version 38 in the 4th video of this series. Is it possible to know how to integrate with version 40 too?
You can replace the OVRCameraRig with the prefab InteractionRigOVR-FullSynthetic which contains eveything Valem adds. There are a few things you still will have to add manually such as the HandGrabInteractor
@@xanderdevelops Hi, i did just that, but when im adding the HandGrabInteractor, i cant drag to the controller ref the LeftControllerHand or the RightControllerHand, do you know how to solve it?
@@antonioamaya3762 hmm, are you sure you are adding the "HandGrabInteractor" to the ControllerHandInteractors? and that you are dragging the LeftControllerHand/RightControllerHand? And everything is under "Controller hands"? I'm not really sure whats going on. In any case, if you don't manage to get it working, you can find another prefab (which for some reason I can't find it using the search bar) called "InteractionRigOVR-Synthetic". It is located under Assets > Oculus > Interaction > Samples > Scenes > BasicGrab. It has everything set up. Hope it helps.
InputOVR -> hands + controllers aren't visibile, just delete OVRCameraRig and inputOVR and replace them by OculusInteractionSampleRing and you will see that all the start of the tutorial is already set upped. HelloWord ! for all
Hello I followed the tutorial, and the steps mentioned in the model for later versions. However, I still can not grab the cubes. My Unity Editor version is 2021.3,22f1 and I used OculusInteractionSampleRig and Grabbable and still can't grab the cube. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Hello Valem, Thank you for always sharing your knowledge and expertise. Unfortunately, with the Meta XR Interaction SDK OVR Integration, everything is different now :/ hope there will be an update soon.
Hello, I am using Unity 2021.3.7f1 and while following the tutorial, at 3:53, the InputOVR is having just 1 component under it namely Hmd. I tried downgrading to 2020.3.5f1 version to test but stuck with same result. Please help to understand and fix this.
Great video thanks Valem! I've also been looking into this recently but found the setup to be pretty weird as the documentation for grabbing via the hands seems to be out of date. Apparently they're going to significantly change how we set up interactables in the near future, which is both good and bad. Did you find the physics on the objects to go a bit crazy when you dropped them with the hands by any chance? Mine seem to being thrown at force downwards on release. It sucks there's no hover/select/exit events we can use, but that's probably why they're changing stuff soon.
Hey, I really appreciate your videos! In the new Version (40) there is a change to inputOVR. There are no controllers or hands. I am looking for help :). Thanks in advance!
Thank you very much for your excellent education I wanted it to be red when we hold the cube with the right hand and blue when we hold the same cube with the left hand. How should I do?
there is no existing documentation i can find on snapping the hand to a specific part of the object, could you please feature this in the tutorial too? I need help with it 😅
This is great! Is there a way to combine the accuracy of the InputOVR/interactable method here and the customization of using OVRGrabber for various gameplay actions? I need to know what was grabbed.
So in case anyone else is wondering this: There is a component you can put on the interactable object called Interactable Unity Event Wrapper. It allows you to do all the custom code gameplay stuff by calling script functions through that depending upon the desired state of the interaction.
Can you make a video of how to create movement in VR without needing the controllers and only walking forward to move? Example game is blade and sorcery
This video is how it uses two hands, but what configurations should I do so that it can use the 2 pointers, that is, the one on the left and the one on the right?
Guys I'm using the latest version of the Oculus integration package which is 46.0 and when I search for InputOVR and darg and drop the prefab in the scene it has no children like Valem's. Someone please tell me how to fix this issue.
If someone is unable to have the grab working in newer Oculus API's with the grabbable component, I found a fix for it. Uncheck "Enable Update' and "Enable Fixed Update" under "Input Data Provider Update Trigger" component in the InputOVR GameObject.
@valemtutorials Great tutorial serries! Do you know how you can display the hands and the controllers simultaneously ? I would really like to show the hand movement when pressing the buttons. One way would be to animate the movements, but is there a faster way? thanks a lot! :)
hi, i followed all steps till 4:25 to show basic hand mesh as you showed. but in my oculus, nothing is shown. when i grab controllers, they are visible but when i put them down no hands appear. is there something in missing like some settings in headset itself or anything else? i followed the steps many times
I had that issue. For me it was just that the hands were using legacy materials which would not render on my version of unity so making a new mat worked for me
@@kaushikpaddy7467 thnaks mate...i fixed that after few days of my comments. i didnt add the android part as i was thinking its not needed for oculus but later i realized its a must for oculus apps.....im still learning :)
This is so funny, what you show is how easy hands/controller setup was with old Oculus Integration, before they came up with the XR-crap where you need half an hour to setup. Now we use Ocu. Integr. to make hand-setup in XR a bit easier? 🙂 Why Unity/Oculus/Suckermeta could not come with such a XR-prefab with hands, animation, teleport -controller out of the box? For example to choose in the Unity 'Hub'? But thank you for this tut anyway. 👍
Hi ya, only just come across your channel. I am planning a game with occulus integration and snapping. I know that your series on your other channel uses snapping for XR interaction toolkit, does occulus have verision that matches those features?
i don't have a VR device....I need to make the VR game for my college project.... can I still make a game ...If yes how can I check the hand movement as if they will be working fine when played ?
Hey, i loved the tutorial series, but I couldn't make it work at all. I can only use the OVR 46.0 version, and eben though I can see my hands, I can't grab anything. even trying one of the ready scenes that come with the OVR I use exactly the same scripts on the objects and still can't grab anything. :/
I am confused as to how you get hand tracking enabled while in play mode. This requires link for me and I can't get hand tracking to work using link? I connect to air link with hand tracking, and as soon as I start the game it connects to the controllers and will not change to hand tracking or seem to recognize it at all. edit: wont detect it on build either. Tried multiple installs now. Not sure why it's not working. :(
amazing titorial as always....i subscribed to the channel after watching ur so many videos my question: how to remember all these steps when we are replicating it for multiple projects? its making me crazy :(
I unsuccessfully tried to make my hands show up, trying some of the suggestions here in the comments. It turned out that I had to enable hand-tracking in my quest menu (Settings -> Hands and Controllers).
Good video, but seems as soon as these videos drop - Oculus updates it making the videos dated. Like the OVRInput no longer has the additional components demonstrated here.
FYI if you have tried all the previous workarounds and your hands still don't show up- make sure you have hand tracking enabled on your Quest settings by default :P
Any idea how one would make an interactable that has both a translation and rotation transformer? I would like to be able to pull an object on one axis and allow rotation on one axis.
If we choose to use the Oculus sdk will this stuff still work on other headsets aswell? (except hand tracking) Or if we plan to support other headsets should we use Unity XR tookit instead?
Hey! URGENT HELP NEEDED. I'm at 3:20 of the video and the hands arent showing up!! Oculus is recognizing that my controllers are down because the oculus sign comes up, but no hands are showing up!! In the OVRCameraRig Manager Hand Tracking Support, I tried changing it to "Controllers and Hands" but it still doesnt seem to work :(. How can I get the hand tracking to work on my app!! THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Can you continue the tutorials on multiplayer with photon pun 2 in vr i wanted a tutorial on usernames if thats possible id really love to see that because i dont use photon often
Hi..I need help please Can u help me how to mirror the hand in Oculus integration I mean that when I do something with my right hand in reality, VR shows that left hand is doing that thing
hi and thank you very much for your tutorial, unfortunaltely im stuck now to make my object grabbable, as the component you are using are no longer available, i know that is a pain in the ass to update the same video all over again, but can you please make a HOWTO script somewhere in gdrive to download without making a whole new video. i have just started using unity and VR for university project and i can't follow up with these changes :(
Hey I've been experimenting with Unity for building a VR piece, and have also previously had success with showing hands and controllers in VR but for some reasy in my latest projects it just never shows the controllers nor the hands. its really weird cause they even cast shadows in VR so they are there but doesn't matter what tutorial I try the hands or controllers never show. Any hints on what I should check? Thanks in advance!
Awesome video! I am finding this very useful to quickly get going in building some fun stuff in Unity! I am having an issue with the OVR Camera rig, though. The InputOVR isn't letting me put the OVRCameraRig in its place in the InputOVR where it asks for the camera rig (script). Any idea why this might be? Anyone have any advice? @Valem The camara rig is in the game, but it's not showing up as an option when I look at options in the script reference.
So what does this mean for XR Action Based Rigs? I'm about to make a fresh new project and I don't even know which one to go with anymore. I understand XR will increase compatibility, but is it worth it to just make games for Quest and Rift with all of these great features?
So I totally understand your point right now. With all the current solution it is hard to know how to start your project and with which SDK. I should make a video about it but in my opinion it really depends on what feature you want to develop in your game. If you're looking for cross platform Unity XR Toolkit is still the best SDK to get started quickly in my opinion but it lacks some advanced feature that other SDK have but that your game might not potentially need ? In this example if you're looking to make a game working for both Hand Tracking and Controller with the Oculus Quest this Interaction SDK is a great solution. Keep in mind that a SDK is just a set of tools given to speed up your development its normal that it doesnt cover every angle but in my opinion the best thing to do is to understand how all these SDK works and maybe try to use part of them in multiple project.
@@ValemTutorials I think I know about some of those features you mention that XR is lacking, but do you think XR Toolkit will get more in the future? Is there hope that as I am working on the project that I may get better tools on the go as I need them over the next 2-3 years? Also, are most of the features fancy and quality of life like nice pointers, hand models, and locomotion? I would still have to code game mechanics myself right?
@@GamerReality Afaik the hand tracking stuff has been on XRI's roadmap since it released. It's still on the "planned" list so it'll come one day (hopefully). XRI was sort of promised to be the one solution to replace them all and it is great, but can be tricky especially if trying for a cross-platform action based controller. That said XRI is highly recommended at this point due to it being developed internally by Unity. Other solutions are Hurricane VR and the VR Interaction Framework but I'm not sure about hand tracking for these.
@@Project-NSX Oh I own Hurricane VR, I didn't know that it necessarily replaced XRI. I don't really care about hand tracking, that's not one of the features I'm missing.
Hi Valem, Thank u so much for your tutorial :) I checked all the comments and tried many methods but i was not able to see hands. It exists in the scene and looks like transparent. I tried to change the materials and convert to URP but none of them works. Controllers looks fine and are visible. Could you please help me to figure it out? Thank u !
Hi valem! I have a problem with the OVRControllerPrefabs. When i try to use it, in the scene they show pink and then when y play the game and use the Oculus, the controllers hasn`t appear but they still move into the scene! Can you help me?
----- V39 UPDATE PROBLEMS ------- ..and of course, after completing all the tutorials, Oculus updates the library and everything stops working! Problems After v39 update (so far): 1) Hands tracking support got reset to "Controllers Only" --> if you don't see hands, just re-select "Controllers and Hands" 2) Hands appear, but they are misaligned (on the left compared to my body) ---> "Hand Visual" component in OVR input seems buggy 3) Hands & Controllers Grab stopped working 4) Hands & Controllers Poke seem unaffected by the update, still work(incredibly) 5) Poke UI stopped working did anybody have the same problems? PS. why is VR development such a pain? 😅
To solved the 3 problem you have to add to the pointableElement the component grabbable, to the rigerbody the actual rigerbody and to the grabSource you have to add the transform. If you do this you can Grab the object, but there is a bug that do the grab item fall to the floor all the time. The solution that I found is to deactive gravity, I know that this is not a solution, but it is that we have XD. I don't know what class of person Oculus has for his Api, but I have problems always because they do changes all time and remove things that they upload the week before.
Nice video! When i try to touch the same object with two controllers or hands.... like when i try ro rescale the cube, the cube turns crazy and i lose of the scene. Some idea of what can i do? Sorry for my bad english
Do you mean the cube disappears off screen? I don't know if this is the same issue I had but for me the cube would fly off the screen. To fix this I clicked freeze constraints for both freeze position x y z and freeze rotation x y z in the gameobject rigidbody
Ovr Camera Rig in "Input OVR" requires me an Interaction OVR Camera Rig, not an OVR Camera Rig. I had to manually add Interaction OVR Camera Rig into the camera rig... this might be because of latest version of the SDK?
This is very helpful but boy is it confusing trying to set all this up and also like people mention what is said has been replaced lately so the two things don't match up .......I wish Unity just made life a bit simpler here....is there an easy template we can download anywhere please? Thanks
I've just had to give up. Until they can make this all a bit easier it is too hard. I managed to build some apps for Unity but now I can't build on the Quest 2 despite being able to see it in Unity under Devices and I can see Developer in the menu. I turned off Developer mode and turned it back on using my phone - still the same. When you plug it into the computer it does come up with the first popup up 'Allow Access to Data' but not the key one that let's you build. It was all working. There are so many factors that one minute work then they don't work. They just need to make all of this easier for people. It promises so much but you just spend a day going around and around in circles. It's just a waste of time. I am going to try Playcanvas. Thanks anyway Valem these tutorials were really excellent.
Great video. I'm trying to calculate the angle between the hand and the arm (wrist flexion) but I can't find it. I have tried to calculate the angle between Hand_WristRoot and Hand_Forearm (OVRSkeleton) but it does not work for me. Thanks in advance.
Hi I need help pls. I do not understand why I cannot drag the OVR Camera Rig in the OVR Camera Rig section of InputOVR. The cursor becomes a red stop/error mark.

Hey, I'm a total noob in Unity and VR, but I found a fix that worked for me with the disappearing hands. I applied the changes above, but it didn't work (still do these). After that, I went into the OVRCameraRig > OVR Manager > Quest Features and changed Hand tracking support to 'Controller and Hands' and V1 of the version. This might seem obvious but before I was able to use the finger gestures in the game without the hands showing up, which seemed like the hand tracking is enabled. I hope this helps :)
This worked for me
I had a bit of work to do to make the modifications needed to work with v41, but I got it all working. It is impressive (not in a good way) how much Oculus (Meta ugh...) likes to change the SDK API between versions. A bit ridiculous if you ask me. We're at version 42 now?!?? It seems that stability with the API is merited by now. Oh well, welcome to VR development. But your videos are great, my friend. Keep up the good work!
hi guy, can i refer to your settings for version 41? I really need that, because the 2 versions are so different, and it's really hard for me! Please!! Thank you so much!
Damn it, I was doing your other tutorials on your (main?) channel, and found this one by mistake... this is so much easier ;-; can't wait for the next ones
Hi Valem, thanks for the tutorials! Unfortunately for those starting now the new version 40 of the Oculus Integration is completely different (much more than the 38).
For example the inputOVR has only one child (HMD), it no longer has "Hands" and "Controllers" like in your videos.
You've already covered the changes with version 38 in the 4th video of this series.
Is it possible to know how to integrate with version 40 too?
You can replace the OVRCameraRig with the prefab InteractionRigOVR-FullSynthetic which contains eveything Valem adds. There are a few things you still will have to add manually such as the HandGrabInteractor
@@xanderdevelops Thank you! Also run into this
@@xanderdevelops Hi, i did just that, but when im adding the HandGrabInteractor, i cant drag to the controller ref the LeftControllerHand or the RightControllerHand, do you know how to solve it?
@@antonioamaya3762 hmm, are you sure you are adding the "HandGrabInteractor" to the ControllerHandInteractors? and that you are dragging the LeftControllerHand/RightControllerHand? And everything is under "Controller hands"? I'm not really sure whats going on.
In any case, if you don't manage to get it working, you can find another prefab (which for some reason I can't find it using the search bar) called "InteractionRigOVR-Synthetic". It is located under Assets > Oculus > Interaction > Samples > Scenes > BasicGrab. It has everything set up.
Hope it helps.
@@xanderdevelops Thank you!
InputOVR -> hands + controllers aren't visibile, just delete OVRCameraRig and inputOVR and replace them by OculusInteractionSampleRing and you will see that all the start of the tutorial is already set upped.
HelloWord ! for all
help a lot！
Hands tracking move with camera when turning left or right please help.
Hello I followed the tutorial, and the steps mentioned in the model for later versions. However, I still can not grab the cubes.
My Unity Editor version is 2021.3,22f1 and I used OculusInteractionSampleRig and Grabbable and still can't grab the cube.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Hello Valem, Thank you for always sharing your knowledge and expertise. Unfortunately, with the Meta XR Interaction SDK OVR Integration, everything is different now :/ hope there will be an update soon.
I cannot grab objects with the hands with v.38 :( I am only able to grab them with controller
Hello,
I am using Unity 2021.3.7f1 and while following the tutorial, at 3:53, the InputOVR is having just 1 component under it namely Hmd. I tried downgrading to 2020.3.5f1 version to test but stuck with same result.
Please help to understand and fix this.
How to show hands AND controllers with the animations (including capacitive button touches) like Oculus apps often do? Thanks in advance!
This will be AMAZING
Great video thanks Valem! I've also been looking into this recently but found the setup to be pretty weird as the documentation for grabbing via the hands seems to be out of date. Apparently they're going to significantly change how we set up interactables in the near future, which is both good and bad. Did you find the physics on the objects to go a bit crazy when you dropped them with the hands by any chance? Mine seem to being thrown at force downwards on release. It sucks there's no hover/select/exit events we can use, but that's probably why they're changing stuff soon.
Nevermind. Adding the PhysicsTransformable script to the object fixed it!
Hey Valem, I’d love to request a tutorial on how to punch characters in VR that turn into ragdolls 😁
Hey, I really appreciate your videos! In the new Version (40) there is a change to inputOVR. There are no controllers or hands. I am looking for help :). Thanks in advance!
it is now called OculusInteractionSampleRig
@@philipchristiansen3824 Thanks man, this helped
Again great tutorials Valem. I have an Oculus Rift S. Can i use hands instead of controllers prefab?
3:16 my quest 2 is connected with my macbook but its not controlling anything inside unity? what could be the reason?
it was a great to watch. On which tool you are using for this?
This is a life saver! thank you so much!
Thank you very much for your excellent education
I wanted it to be red when we hold the cube with the right hand and blue when we hold the same cube with the left hand.
How should I do?
This Was Awsome Thank You
there is no existing documentation i can find on snapping the hand to a specific part of the object, could you please feature this in the tutorial too? I need help with it 😅
This is great! Is there a way to combine the accuracy of the InputOVR/interactable method here and the customization of using OVRGrabber for various gameplay actions? I need to know what was grabbed.
So in case anyone else is wondering this: There is a component you can put on the interactable object called Interactable Unity Event Wrapper. It allows you to do all the custom code gameplay stuff by calling script functions through that depending upon the desired state of the interaction.
InputOVR is not there in my package what to do then .?
same its so frustrating
Can you make a video of how to create movement in VR without needing the controllers and only walking forward to move? Example game is blade and sorcery
This video is how it uses two hands, but what configurations should I do so that it can use the 2 pointers, that is, the one on the left and the one on the right?
Guys I'm using the latest version of the Oculus integration package which is 46.0 and when I search for InputOVR and darg and drop the prefab in the scene it has no children like Valem's.
Someone please tell me how to fix this issue.
me too
for version 46 use OculusInteractionSampleRig contains the Camerarig and the inputOVR with Hmd, controller and hands
If someone is unable to have the grab working in newer Oculus API's with the grabbable component, I found a fix for it. Uncheck "Enable Update' and "Enable Fixed Update" under "Input Data Provider Update Trigger" component in the InputOVR GameObject.
You're the best!!
this became old , please create new series on meta all in one sdk
@valemtutorials Great tutorial serries! Do you know how you can display the hands and the controllers simultaneously ? I would really like to show the hand movement when pressing the buttons. One way would be to animate the movements, but is there a faster way? thanks a lot! :)
Vidéo bien ciblée et qui couvre bien et rapidement les principes. Merci
hi, i followed all steps till 4:25 to show basic hand mesh as you showed. but in my oculus, nothing is shown. when i grab controllers, they are visible but when i put them down no hands appear. is there something in missing like some settings in headset itself or anything else? i followed the steps many times
I had that issue. For me it was just that the hands were using legacy materials which would not render on my version of unity so making a new mat worked for me
@@kaushikpaddy7467 thnaks mate...i fixed that after few days of my comments. i didnt add the android part as i was thinking its not needed for oculus but later i realized its a must for oculus apps.....im still learning :)
Did you get the solution?
This is so funny, what you show is how easy hands/controller setup was with old Oculus Integration, before they came up with the XR-crap where you need half an hour to setup. Now we use Ocu. Integr. to make hand-setup in XR a bit easier? 🙂
Why Unity/Oculus/Suckermeta could not come with such a XR-prefab with hands, animation, teleport -controller out of the box? For example to choose in the Unity 'Hub'?
But thank you for this tut anyway. 👍
Hi ya, only just come across your channel. I am planning a game with occulus integration and snapping. I know that your series on your other channel uses snapping for XR interaction toolkit, does occulus have verision that matches those features?
what is the VR system that you are using and which controllers are you using
i don't have a VR device....I need to make the VR game for my college project.... can I still make a game ...If yes how can I check the hand movement as if they will be working fine when played ?
Hello Valem, thank you very much for the videos, you are the man! Is there a way to get around with the controls?
thank you
awesomeee I really want this
Hey, i loved the tutorial series, but I couldn't make it work at all. I can only use the OVR 46.0 version, and eben though I can see my hands, I can't grab anything. even trying one of the ready scenes that come with the OVR I use exactly the same scripts on the objects and still can't grab anything. :/
I am confused as to how you get hand tracking enabled while in play mode. This requires link for me and I can't get hand tracking to work using link? I connect to air link with hand tracking, and as soon as I start the game it connects to the controllers and will not change to hand tracking or seem to recognize it at all.
edit: wont detect it on build either. Tried multiple installs now. Not sure why it's not working. :(
You should first enable hand tracking options in the oculus system settings.
amazing titorial as always....i subscribed to the channel after watching ur so many videos
my question: how to remember all these steps when we are replicating it for multiple projects? its making me crazy :(
How do I change snap-type in the updated version with grabbable?
Can i use quest 1 for this sdk
I unsuccessfully tried to make my hands show up, trying some of the suggestions here in the comments. It turned out that I had to enable hand-tracking in my quest menu (Settings -> Hands and Controllers).
Oh, my god! I am so nooooooob. Thank you!
The InputOVR doesn't contain the controller and hand folders. It only contains "hmd". Did he go over this again in a up-to-date video?
It is now called OculusInteractionSampleRig.
Good video, but seems as soon as these videos drop - Oculus updates it making the videos dated. Like the OVRInput no longer has the additional components demonstrated here.
FYI if you have tried all the previous workarounds and your hands still don't show up- make sure you have hand tracking enabled on your Quest settings by default :P
Are there any packages for the hp reverb g2 headset? Thank you in advance
👍 great!!!
hello i have downloaded one character from mixamno now i want to interact with handtracking plz make a video on it or plz suggest some help
I only want see hands, even when controllers are in hands, I would be very thankful for any info.
Any idea how one would make an interactable that has both a translation and rotation transformer? I would like to be able to pull an object on one axis and allow rotation on one axis.
I wonder if I can get the coordinate once my hand pokes. I'm going to design a remote control using pure hand interaction.
the hands/controllers dont show up and the camera starts spazzing out
i am uable to ovrcamera rig in the latest version then how to find
If we choose to use the Oculus sdk will this stuff still work on other headsets aswell? (except hand tracking) Or if we plan to support other headsets should we use Unity XR tookit instead?
Hey! URGENT HELP NEEDED. I'm at 3:20 of the video and the hands arent showing up!! Oculus is recognizing that my controllers are down because the oculus sign comes up, but no hands are showing up!!

Hey I've been experimenting with Unity for building a VR piece, and have also previously had success with showing hands and controllers in VR but for some reasy in my latest projects it just never shows the controllers nor the hands. its really weird cause they even cast shadows in VR so they are there but doesn't matter what tutorial I try the hands or controllers never show. Any hints on what I should check? Thanks in advance!

Hi Unity is better for Oculus App with handtracking ? I ill develop in UE 4 and 5, I have much problems with ... configuration
Awesome video! I am finding this very useful to quickly get going in building some fun stuff in Unity!
I am having an issue with the OVR Camera rig, though. The InputOVR isn't letting me put the OVRCameraRig in its place in the InputOVR where it asks for the camera rig (script). Any idea why this might be? Anyone have any advice? @Valem
The camara rig is in the game, but it's not showing up as an option when I look at options in the script reference.
Add the InteractionOVRCameraRig script to the OVRCameraRig Prefab
Didnt work for me :/
It's worked: now can drag it.
I didn't work: instead of showing the hands, now it shows the controllers with a displaced behavior 😑
'do not work followed as well all the tutorial but hands do not comes off...only controller...
So what does this mean for XR Action Based Rigs? I'm about to make a fresh new project and I don't even know which one to go with anymore. I understand XR will increase compatibility, but is it worth it to just make games for Quest and Rift with all of these great features?
So I totally understand your point right now. With all the current solution it is hard to know how to start your project and with which SDK. I should make a video about it but in my opinion it really depends on what feature you want to develop in your game.
If you're looking for cross platform Unity XR Toolkit is still the best SDK to get started quickly in my opinion but it lacks some advanced feature that other SDK have but that your game might not potentially need ?
In this example if you're looking to make a game working for both Hand Tracking and Controller with the Oculus Quest this Interaction SDK is a great solution.
Keep in mind that a SDK is just a set of tools given to speed up your development its normal that it doesnt cover every angle but in my opinion the best thing to do is to understand how all these SDK works and maybe try to use part of them in multiple project.
@@ValemTutorials I think I know about some of those features you mention that XR is lacking, but do you think XR Toolkit will get more in the future? Is there hope that as I am working on the project that I may get better tools on the go as I need them over the next 2-3 years? Also, are most of the features fancy and quality of life like nice pointers, hand models, and locomotion? I would still have to code game mechanics myself right?
@@GamerReality Afaik the hand tracking stuff has been on XRI's roadmap since it released. It's still on the "planned" list so it'll come one day (hopefully). XRI was sort of promised to be the one solution to replace them all and it is great, but can be tricky especially if trying for a cross-platform action based controller. That said XRI is highly recommended at this point due to it being developed internally by Unity. Other solutions are Hurricane VR and the VR Interaction Framework but I'm not sure about hand tracking for these.
@@Project-NSX Oh I own Hurricane VR, I didn't know that it necessarily replaced XRI. I don't really care about hand tracking, that's not one of the features I'm missing.

Thank u so much for your tutorial :)

Hi valem! I have a problem with the OVRControllerPrefabs. When i try to use it, in the scene they show pink and then when y play the game and use the Oculus, the controllers hasn`t appear but they still move into the scene! Can you help me?
----- V39 UPDATE PROBLEMS -------
..and of course, after completing all the tutorials, Oculus updates the library and everything stops working!
Problems After v39 update (so far):
1) Hands tracking support got reset to "Controllers Only" --> if you don't see hands, just re-select "Controllers and Hands"
2) Hands appear, but they are misaligned (on the left compared to my body) ---> "Hand Visual" component in OVR input seems buggy
3) Hands & Controllers Grab stopped working
4) Hands & Controllers Poke seem unaffected by the update, still work(incredibly)
5) Poke UI stopped working
did anybody have the same problems?
PS. why is VR development such a pain? 😅
I can't even get it to work c': I press play and its just like "nope" //Index out of range\\
To solved the 3 problem you have to add to the pointableElement the component grabbable, to the rigerbody the actual rigerbody and to the grabSource you have to add the transform.
If you do this you can Grab the object, but there is a bug that do the grab item fall to the floor all the time. The solution that I found is to deactive gravity, I know that this is not a solution, but it is that we have XD.
I don't know what class of person Oculus has for his Api, but I have problems always because they do changes all time and remove things that they upload the week before.
My ovr controllerprefab are in pink like there was no material on it. Any clue on why ?
bro would you please tell me how to add continuous movement with hands in oculus interaction sdk ...
I can't pull it up if I set gravity to True. If I drag very quickly, the cube will bump up but soon fall again.
Did you ever figure out why it does this? I'm having the same problem
Nice video! When i try to touch the same object with two controllers or hands.... like when i try ro rescale the cube, the cube turns crazy and i lose of the scene. Some idea of what can i do? Sorry for my bad english
Do you mean the cube disappears off screen? I don't know if this is the same issue I had but for me the cube would fly off the screen. To fix this I clicked freeze constraints for both freeze position x y z and freeze rotation x y z in the gameobject rigidbody

I've just had to give up. Until they can make this all a bit easier it is too hard. I managed to build some apps for Unity but now I can't build on the Quest 2 despite being able to see it in Unity under Devices and I can see Developer in the menu. I turned off Developer mode and turned it back on using my phone - still the same. When you plug it into the computer it does come up with the first popup up 'Allow Access to Data' but not the key one that let's you build. It was all working. There are so many factors that one minute work then they don't work. They just need to make all of this easier for people. It promises so much but you just spend a day going around and around in circles. It's just a waste of time. I am going to try Playcanvas. Thanks anyway Valem these tutorials were really excellent.
