VR Expansion Plugin

That’s great thanks! Tools to help with VR, it looks amazing, These all seem like things that should have been in the basic packages / SDK’s etc. but were not.

However, “demo”, “example” and “sample” ALL still sound to me like ways of saying, “Look!, then buy!” I’m just trying to find out if is a ‘complete’ or ‘usuable’ package, or just an ,… well,. s
“Sample example demo” :)_ I’m just used to those words being a bit of a trick,… (or form of AD…) and after 4 years lost to cancer, I have little time to explore things when a 2 second question might save me days first learning about something then being dissapointed it is too expensive for a startup to consider at time :slight_smile:

I am sorry but , I keep reading the sentence and over:

“The demo is the example template but packaged into a running sample” that really s not all clear to me :slight_smile: Sorry,… By ‘Running sample’, maybe you mean it is executable? I like that, I learn best by reverse engineering…

I’m sure you’re busy, but could you just either say:
“Yes it is the full version for free”
or
“It is a Demo that asks you to pay after you decide you need it!” ;~)

I’m 100% sure it’s my fault, I am too literal (and OLD), (It even took me HOURS to try to figure out ‘google drive’ thing, looking for how to get it, how to install it (?? I guess I had it??) and how to use it,… and most importantly, where the files go when you unzip it,. (then how to download from Google drive, WHERE IT RE-ZIPPED IT BEFORE DOWNLOADING LOL< I was like WTF!?!?!
Actually, I think that frustrated illogical re-zipping to download moment is about when I left my message sorry, it seemed like the ultimate waste of time when most online files you can just right click and open or save, not have to learn new tools, just to get a file…,. I don’t particularly like Google, (none of you will in a few years when we start to refer to it as Big Brother and Skynet –> FOR REAL,…/) .

BUT I got it in the end, and I greatly appreciate your help and info and if is a community accessible tool, that is of course amazing, and very much appreciated! . :slight_smile:

I’m not a jerk, just in an insane rush trying to recover time and rebuild my career after fighting not to die for 4 years,… I ‘woke up’ to a world with VR and I have to catch up,… I love it! It is kinda what saved me…

I look in the file, and I don’t see any sort of ‘Unreal’ stuff,.(All and I still don’t understand, LOL). I see an executable (that does not run, it opens a black screen for a second then closes instantly, maybe I was supposed to install ‘UE4PrereqSetup_x64.exe’ first? ??) I have no interest in Demos anyways, I just care about the tools etc I can read about them if/when I find them,…)

Please consider the possibility that you are all so very used to and utterly intrinsically familiar with what is (and it’s history), that you speak and write about it in such a broad, assuming way, that it makes it really extra hard for people 100% new to it, to come to any kind of understanding what it is, what it DOES, What it costs (If anything?) or even what system it is for with that cryptic (to me at least…) ‘open vr’ opening. I’m still asking all these questions,. and curios what is aabot about, You say to read further I read for an hour last night, all the early stuff and a ton of comments, It’s just too much and NOTHING plainly stated, like: " TOOL DOES ." " tool is free" “Right click and open into Unreal” …

It’s not just me, All the info text is replete with so many assumptions of someone already knowing what it is all about, it makes it so hard to get ones head around… I wish you could experience the page FOR THE FIRST TIME TODAY, and how overwhelming it might feel never having known anything about it, you might be more compassionate to my quandary and you yourself might even realize, "it never really says what it is! It says not to use it for big projects, or something, or not to use in in existing projects,. BUT: where all that text is, IT SHOULD SAY WHAT IT IS; FIRST!! All that text about not using it in project or that, assumes people know what the thing is, right? you see?? Instead of having to ask me if I read ‘more’ you should probably be asking people, , Did you read the opening text, (and if they did, the way it is now, they would, like me, have little to no idea what it is even IS, (only what projects NOT to use it on,…)
Heck, before it really says anything specific about what it is, it lists like 30 games it was used on , I’m like Wow!, GREAT!
But what is it??? :slight_smile: ;~)

I think it is probably hopeless for a lifelong Character Animator,. I tried understanding again before clicking send here:

“Clone in source tree”?
BitGot? Gitbot?
Visual Studio?

It’s not exactly simple, already dealing with Google drive for the first time seemed so unnecessary.
I already know, is never going to be accessible to a hollywood animator porting skills to VR,… I guess I was stretching,. I don’t have to time to learn all these different 'Source Tree- Got-Bit / (Big-Got?) things, just to get a file to open in Unreal,.

The demo doesn’t even run on an i7 machine with 128GB of DDR4, Two 512GB NVRAM-SSD’s and EVGA water-cooled SLI’d 1080 Ti Founders Editions . (bought for me by Fans of my animated series and my Youtube subscribers, I didn’t have the money believe you me.) as I said the Demo Sample Example Template opens and closes instantly. I even tried using compatibility tool in Win10-64… Without the demo running, and cryptic descriptions like: " plugin is intended to ease the creation of VR games/experiences in UE4" How could I possibly know what it is or does? I don’t feel like I was unreasonable asking… definitely does not feel like it would ‘ease the creation of VR’.

But THANK YOU for responding!
