Unreal Editor in VR - Official megathread

[do-while-true]

Thank you for making this early version available to test out! It already seems useful for tweaking scale and placement within VR.

Any plans to allow editing in VR while playing a game? I’ve found that a common method in iteration is tuning numeric values on objects while playing the game, and instantly seeing the results in the context of the game running. I didn’t see a way to do this with the current VR editor.

Thank you for your feedback and input !

Well it isn’t possible in VR Editor and the conventional editor to change levels in-game/play mode. However, you can try running VR Editor in simulate mode. I have to warn you that it’s not perfect yet.

To iterate quickly, I am looking for a way to change numeric values in the Details Panel. The quick fix might be to fix the scrubbing when you select the field value with the laser pointer and attempt to increase or decrease it by moving the laser pointer left or right (or let me know what the correct input is). Alternatively, a numeric keypad on the Vive touchpads might be a step towards a full swipe style soft-keyboard.

I agree, the current way with the laserpointer is barely usable. We need to find some way of doing it with the laserpointer and also allow some kind of virtual keyboard input. I have some ideas for virtual keyboards with the touchpads, but I didn’t have the time to implement that yet.
