Oculus Quest 2 image banding in vr template

[Paul_Eckhardt]

I deployed the ue5.0 vr template to quest 2. There were very odd color banding effects.
It seems that it’s rendering very dark, and then something is scaling up the color giving a ~0-25 range, instead of 0-255. (People were reporting issue with very dark color rendition in 4.27, is this a fix for that?)

Tried simplification of the materials, lights, and lighting, and had the same issue.

-Mobile HDR did render correct colors, but was black on the left eye.

Image from scrcpy. This image looks like it’s a compressed jpg, but it’s actually the view from in headset

Quest2 Shadow artifacts

[Quest2_UE427] this is taken in Quest2 built with UE4 4.27 [Quest2_UE500] this is taken in Quest2 built with UE5 5.0 can anyone help me with this problem. Have tried to adjust lightmap compression, texture qualities I can not get rid of the artifacts in the shadow areas As it seems, they are most clearly visible in dark areas. Both are built with Epic’s standard VR template without any changes.

this is working better in unreal 5.0.2 - however some users are still having issues with Quest 1 due to using improper android sdk version numbers - 29/29 may work
