Thanks for this vr tutorial series it’s really helpful. Im following along but was wondering if there’s any chance we might see another vr template soon? The last one was great as it added a lot of functionality beyond just the basic stuff and i feel like especially with motion controls there’s a lot more involved. Starting a new project from template would be super useful.

I posted a thread here asking for something official but it doesn’t look like that’s coming anytime soon and consumer vr is now here. I know a lot of people would like to jump in and start creating who may not be devs so this would go a long way to helping.

One more thing i’ve yet to see answered was if unreal can do the mixed reality stuff thats possible in unity?

I was thinking of eventually putting the source files from all my videos into one project and sort of making a VR Content Examples instead of a template.
As for the mixed reality stuff I’ve thought about it a little bit but I haven’t actually tried to sit down and do it. When I get some spare time it’s something I would definitely like to look into

How do we show the vive controller in game. Isnt there some default model?

There isn’t a default model in UE because of the generic motion controller support, however you can download the .fbx for the vive controller form inside the SteamVR folder in steam.
Also Proteus is making a SteamVR Template, there are a few things about it I would change so I wouldn’t quite recommend using it fully just as of yet but I’m going to try and help them with it if they need it. The reason I mention this is because they already imported the controller models for you (albeit not at the right scale just as of yet)
