Cardboard on iOS
Hi folks. I’m over here after viewing the discussion on Google Cardboard on iOS support - XR Development - Epic Developer Community Forums
I lost a few days to other projects and problems with mobile provisioning, but I’m back. Before I try to do anything fancy, I just want to test the pipeline from Unreal to Cardboard on iOS. I’d love any help you can offer.
- I can build a non-Unreal app in Xcode and launch it on my iOS phone
- I can create a First Person Blueprint Template (no code) and launch it on iOS either from Mac Unreal or Windows Unreal
- If I disable all the VR plugins and enable SimpleHMD, I can run that same project on Mac or Win with dual cameras
- If I enable the SimpleHMD plugin and then try to run that same Blueprint-only project on the phone again, I can’t.
Do I need to find the SimpleHMD source and build it? I have minimal experience understanding where things break in Unreal. The relevant part of my log is at the bottom of this post.
Ultimately, my goal would be to use the Cardboard SDK in a new plugin built on SimpleHMD (if I can find the source and figure out how to do that), because there are variants of Cardboard and it’d be nice to use the QR code configuration.
I also tried using the Rift template mitchemmc created and offered to the community here (VR Game Template - XR Development - Epic Developer Community Forums), disabling the Rift plugin and enabling the SimpleHMD plugin, but no luck deploying to the iOS phone either, although again, I could preview with two cameras in Windows just fine.
Log of my most recent attempt deploying from Mac Unreal to the phone with SimpleHMD plugin enabled:
