Thanks mordecentral. Just wanted to follow-up for anyone having a similar issue.
Stupid question but how can I tell which version of the template I’ve downloaded? The plugins themselves say they are version 4.17 within the editor.
I just tried to find the most recent version by poking around your Bitbucket. I downloaded the template from the “downloads” section and the “source.” The template folders I downloaded read ‘-vrexppluginexample-823b70c95557’ and ‘-vrexppluginexample-ae544fa4dd45.’ Both seemed to build successfully (‘Development with Editor’ seemed to be the default setting). Still I wasn’t able to open the project file without receiving the usual litany of errors (editor/plugin version mismatches etc.). I’m assuming there’s something obvious I’m missing due to my lack of familiarity with building projects via VS.
In desperation, I copied the content folder from the template into a new project and added the pre-built plugin. I then opened the project folder and opened the MotionControllerMap. Aside from some networking errors (I had to unpin Start/Stop Networked Voice) with the Vive Actor, the plugin seems to be functioning as expected. I’m sure is the wrong way to go about things but it seems to work for now.
The pre-built version is always a couple of days behind on updates, other than that it should be fine like that.
The template is 4.17 and both plugins included with it are 4.17 as well. The moment a new engine version releases out of preview I move the template over to it so I dont’ have to manage multiple engine versions for the example content.
