Platform failing initialize on Oculus Go.
I was trying to follow this basic Avatar tutorial, but I can never get the 'Loading Personalized Avatars' section to work. I have been struggling with this one error for a while now:
UnityException: Oculus Platform failed to initialize.
I have tried multiple AppIDs, I even make a new user and tried adding them as a developer, etc. No joy. I have also tried the Unity Stores 'Oculus Integration' package and also a clean project with the latest code. Unity v2018.1.0f2, Oculus Utilities v1.26.0, OVRPlugin v1.26.0, SDK v1.1.13.0 with OSX. I have walked through the docs multiple times now and stepped through the code but most of the Unity logic is in a DLL. I have even deployed the project and tried running that build.
What is the best way to figure out what is going wrong?

- This should be explicitly pointed out on the following pages:
https://developer.oculus.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-to-develop-for-oculus-go/
https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/mobilesdk/latest/concepts/mobile-game-engine/#mobile-game-engine
...but I'm also wondering...why not? It's just another Unity (or Unreal) target, and all you would need to support is signing and loading the app to the Go. - Solved!
Arg... this was my bad. I was following the Preparing for Mobile Development and skipped the link too Android Development Software Setup because I miss interpreted "Most Unity developers do not need to install Android Studio or NDK." I already had Android Studio installed; however, I did not have all of the following installed.- Android 5.0 (Lollipop)
- Android SDK Platform, API level 21
- Android SDK Build Tools, v 26.0.2
- Android NDK
- LLDB
