IsHeadMountedDisplayEnabled always true in packaging build when Oculus is enabled

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

When I do a packaged build (tested on both shipping and development) the node IsHeadMountedDisplayEnabled ALWAYS returns true if the Oculus runtime is running in the computer (even if no console command to activate it as “Stereo On” has been activated). However, if I Force Quit with the task manager all Oculus Processes, it starts behaving normally again.

I think that the Oculus runtime and ue4 are having some kind of conflict…

Regards,

Carlos.

Hello ,

After running a few tests I was unable to reproduce this issue on our end. I unplugged my Oculus and follow the instructions above. Have you made any other changes to your project that may affect the outcome?
