Thanks for this! Like you, I also just bought a PC after trying to develop for the Quest on a Mac for a while. You might want to include in the description that you must set up Oculus Link and enable "Unknown Sources" from the Oculus Desktop App settings. That might be obvious to most, but it took me a while to figure out since I've been building to my Quest 2 and haven't had the chance to use Oculus Link until now. Looking forward to following along with more videos now that I have this working! (But am moving slowly since I'm relearning Windows after many years...)
I think if you packaged lessons in a format building a game from start to finish for any genre and then sold the package as a lesson i would buy it in a heartbeat. You could have a curriculum and list everything a student needs to build what you are building and list your affiliate links so we can buy from that. ( photoshop, assets, etc..) And sell the lessons in packages for those that want to learn 2D platformer, 3D games, tower defense, endless runners, horror, survival, etc. theres a HUGE market out there for early devs bottlenecked by code and i think you could teach it all with playmaker. I would buy every package you sold if you get it all together and teach us on it!
this is a great tutorial, very helpful! One comment though- when you talk about single pass instanced vs. multipass you say that multipass is necessary for stereo rendering, which is a little misleading. It's a little more work but if you get your stereo VR game working with single pass instanced it will save some CPU cost since it is able to share some of the setup between eyes
Thanks fhuj. Once you have a project all set up, it's good to just duplicate that and work off of the set up project so you don't have to do a set up every new project. I usually do this after I've added in Playmaker and other assets I normally use in all my projects.
Huge fan of your videos! Quick question for you! When I go to add the XR Origin, I do not have the Action-based option. Any idea why? Thank you in advance!
OMG absolutely not. That thing is ridiculously expensive. The Syntech cable on amazon works just as well. www.amazon.com/Syntech-Compatible-Transfer-Charging-Headset/dp/B098399X91/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1ZJCKS75I470E&keywords=oculus+cable&qid=1696008891&sprefix=occulus+cable%2Caps%2C107&sr=8-3
@@BlizStudio so Air Link is just for playing? i use air link for playing. Can i use also for compile build for quest2? thanks for your response :) your videos are awesome.
if I were you I would buy virtual desktop which gave me double to triple the performance over oculus link, I with virtual desktop I can charge the headset while playing because oculus link will discharge it. Also if you aren't close to the router you can get an edup wifi 6 pcie card and a used tp link wifi router which will give you good VR bandwidth or use ethernet
Hi, Is there an updated version? When I installed, an error message came up saying "This package has been manually changed. Also, there are no samples - therefore I was not able to install the starter assets. Did I download the wrong thing? I know this was a year ago, so I figured that there may be an update. Thanks
Hey Kage, they use the New Input system so will be the same as using a controller, etc... I'll be getting into using PM with VR as I go through a few of these tuts.
Hey @scottcastle9119 sorry I wasn't able to comment sooner. Was out for the weekend and disconnected. Ok, have you made sure that your headset is connected and that you first have the Oculus app running? Then make sure that you have gone through the process of connecting your headset and have approved the connection within the headset? Have you set your headset to developer mode? Lots of questions here but there are quite a few steps. You can definitely connect with me on discord. Easier to answer there. Link to discord is up in the first pinned comment.
Hi, can I suggest a video you can make ? Please , big screen app VR , give us the opportunity to create a theater environment , and we can make a user environment for big screen using unity , can you teach us how we can make a theater fir big screen with unity ? Now 4 people makes 4 new environment for user , please say yes jajaja , there are not any video with this theme on TH-cam
@@BlizStudio oh thank you , I just suggested because because I was trying to find a video with how we can create a home theater, or imax theater , make with unity for bigscreen VR , ands I never find it on TH-cam, if you go to bigscreen in your oculus quest and goes to environment, and then goes to user environment , and you will see 4 new environment makes for users , in there you will see the instructions what you need to do this in unity app .. bigscreen only accepts environment only with unity .. one user make one theater and called Ark Max , it’s amazing .. another user makes a environment inside of airplane with screen each sit , and another user make a theater with neon blue , and anther inside a cave it’s lava called vulcano , and another make a studio . I hope you can help how we can create a theater using unity with the bigscreen protocols.. you can make any , just just we no to know the steep or how we can start to using unity and learn
Hey Alicia, Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I'll try to help when I am back. Also you can ping me in Discord. That's a better place for questions. My discord is the pinned comment at top of comments.
Thanks for making these! There is a typoe on the com.unity.xr.interaction.toolkit from your video description. I tried copy-pasting it and couldn't. Love your content.
lol, good catch!! Yep just bought a PC laptop just so I could do VR. Tried with my mac but for every change and wanted to test, would have to make a build and push it to my Oculus and was very tedious. So decided to grab a PC laptop.

simple and amazing! made my day with XR origin setup for my project!
Hey Manicka, that's awesome!!! I'm excited by VR. It's definitely a very large growing industry for sure.
Been waiting for VR tutorials. Thanks, Jerry!
Thanks John!! Really enjoying VR for sure.
Thanks for the videos! This is my first time hooking my quest up, this is really valuable
Thanks and that's awesome Charged Up Beats!!
This is what I was looking for, thank you very much!
That's awesome Thiago. Please share as well. I'll be recording more VR tuts coming up too. Glad you found the channel.

Thanks David. Great suggestions. I'm still fumbling my way around windows. I do need to make a tut on setting up Oculus Link, etc...
@@BlizStudio Same here! I'm trying to get over my initial revulsion over everything Windows seems to do to protect me from myself. :D
yep. Still awesome to be able to have headset plugged in and hit play in Unity and BAM there it is.

Thanks Peter. I'll look into that. One of the things I definitely want to spend more time with is optimization.
很好的视频，你有很强的学习欲望，每次都能学到新知识
Very good video, you have a strong desire to learn and learn something new every time
Thanks. I'm always trying something new. So many things to learn and to teach.
thank you so much!

same problem here did you find a solution?
same problem, but i think is because unity changed that. now there is only one type.
thanks for the video, is awesome. Is necesary the official oculus cable $100 for anything? maybe for build or something? thanks!

Your Welcome!! VR is a blast and the XR toolkit in Unity makes it easy!!
I don't have the android tab in the XR Plug-in Management, how do i fix it so i get it?
Hey Tobias, make sure you have the Unity Android installed in your Unity project.

Hey @thatsicdude2465, there might be. I haven't checked in a bit. I'll need to do that for sure.
Can you make a tutorial on gradual speed increase in endless runner 🏃♀️ 😀 🙏
Can do.
Any idea how to use playmaker with VR controls?
Hey Kage, they use the New Input system so will be the same as using a controller, etc... I'll be getting into using PM with VR as I go through a few of these tuts.
