VR-Ready C++/Blueprintable Pawn with common VR functions. Also good as a SteamVR project template.

Hi I’m having a problem with the timed dash move and enable vr movement functions, If I move away from the player start area, the player starts moving much slower then it should, is this a bug?

Hmmm… It shouldn’t do that. I’ll need to check. I’m just in a month long holiday + work trip overseas. Will see if I can squeeze some time to have a look otherwise might be not until endo of this month.

In the meantime, try changing the speed if the camera location isn’t the same as its spawn location and see if that helps as a temporary workaround? Re

The camera and pawn will have different locations in the world as the player moves around in room scale. Pawn location only gets updated after a move is initiated which I’m guessing could be causing the issue.

Hi runeberg,
Trying to package the plugin when its install into the project plugin folder, but can’t seem to get it to work. When I open up the plugins menu and navigate to the the Runeberg VR Pawn and Components Plugin under Project, I hit the “Package” button and it fails to build. Here’s a snippet of the errors

*UATHelper: Package Plugin Task (Windows): E:\UNREAL_ENGINE\UE_4.20\Engine\Source\Runtime\Engine\Public\Engine.h(10): warning: Monolithic headers should not be used by this module. Please change it to explicitly include the headers it needs.

what am I doing wrong?

Hmmmm… That’s interesting, thanks for the report. Can you make sure you grab the latest commit from master or the 4.20 branch?

The plugin should build as Epic compiles it for publication to the marketplace.

Can you tell me what type of build this is and whether you are just trying to build a base project with no other custom code in it?

Thanks.

Question for you Runeberg,

Did you have any thoughts on how to integrate Armswing Locomotion to your Plugin?

[FurrieBunnie (ShaunNeal)]

Have a funky error when using the enable 360movement node - hooked it up to the thumb left like shown in the demo. Basically works fine, except when I go off the edge of something - then I very slowly float down to the ground. I increased the gravity to 3 and it didnt change. I increased the gravity to 10 and I fell through the landscape mesh. I’m not using a navmesh because the level is quite large and I dont otherwise need it. I’m using V3 with 4.20.3, just downloaded from the store today. I followed the tutorial “uneven terrain” to create the pawn and its movement. Thoughts?

Hi! Thanks for the feedback – There was one other request for this a couple of years back… Have it in my backlog. Will note another vote for this feature and let ya know once it’s implemented.

Hmmm… Are you able to give me a stripped down version of your project so I can check it quickly?

[FurrieBunnie (ShaunNeal)]

The project is a few GB due to the landscape size (2kx2k). Not sure if that has anything to do with it. However, I did download the demo project from github and ran map 8 (RunebergVRPlugin/Content/Maps at 4.20 · 1runeberg/RunebergVRPlugin · GitHub) and out of the box using HTC controllers I just walk through the hills, so that’s not working at all.

Here’s a video which demonstrates the issue. The “floating” and “slow fall” occurs at around 0:39. 2019 02 14 22 27 28 - YouTube

Hi! Thanks for the info… the video helped quite a bit (nice scene btw!)… I think I know what you’re referring to, it’s an experimental feature in my plugin and havent really updated that bit, so may need to do some work on it… there’s an easy solution I can patch in, but let me get back to you after the weekend (still mulling over joining the GameJam or catching up with Spellbreak )

[FurrieBunnie (ShaunNeal)]

There’s a for loop that is seeking the terrain in that VR Actor class; however this movement is also broken in a static mesh - stairs dont work for example. In my game the player is starting on a dock and will need to go into the house to grab some guns. I even put a transparent ramp on the stairs, but it just blocks in a funny way. Also I can run through walls sometimes.

Know of any good VR water? Every one I tried killed the frame rate, so I ended up with a flat blue plane for now.

Hi — sorry was on a different project.

Gave this a go this morning and the demo level seem to be ok. which version of the Engine are you running on? also, for your terrain, are you using it for the collision checks? - This won’t be ideal.

As for the water, I used some from vr projects but they are mostly custom and proprietary for the company i worked for. I’ve had success though for smaller projects with using the free ones from Soul Cave and modifying them to suit (performance & look) - in a pinch, they’re a pretty good starter

lemme know.

Hi all,

I am starting to learn Unreal and try to learn the basics. I have an Oculus Quest and loaded this great Plugin. I tried to get the Gesture System to work, but it writes no Data in the Gesture Database. Is it possible, that there are some problems with the Oculus Quest or my project?
I copied every Step from this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z78C…4g&index=7

My Project Settings are changed for the Quest (Platforms - Android - APK Packaging). I launch the game directly to the Quest (see Screenshot). I can’t use the VR Preview because Oculus Link is not working for me (endless 3 Dots Loading Screen).
When I paint gestures during the game, they get green but don’t get saved in the Database. I also tried the “Demo Content 6_Gestures” from the Plugin. It says “New Gesture Recorded” but when i try to paint it, it just crashes. And it also saves no new Gestures in the Database. But at least I can use the Gestures stored in the “DA_GesturesDB_Demo”.

Below the Screenshots you can see the part of the log file when the game crashes.

Thanks,
Tommy

Howdy! Will the plugin be available in UE4.24?I really love this plugin!

[FrankiePibbs]

Is any opportunity to see compiled for 4.24-4.25?
