Technical Review Test Results - VRC.Mobile.Input.1 fail

No answer at all?   :(

 :'( 

Hi Andrew

I haven't tested on Gear / Go, however IsControllerConnected also has a RTouch option which I did test and it returned True when it was connected and false when it wasn't so can't see why the RTrackedRemote wouldn't return false if not connected.

If I'm reading your post correctly you want to display a message when the tracked remote isn't detected? I quickly wrote and tested the below which worked so should achieve what you need.

On your first screen
Create a "Missing Remote Message" GameObject and give it some text for the "Game requires you to connect a controller"
Create another Game object and attach the below script
Assign your "Missing Remote Message" GameObject to noRemoteMessage

public class CheckForRemote : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject noRemoteMessage;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        noRemoteMessage.SetActive(false);
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (OVRInput.IsControllerConnected(OVRInput.Controller.RTrackedRemote))
        {
            noRemoteMessage.SetActive(false);
            Destroy(gameObject); //Found Controller so can destroy this object to stop constant checking
        }
        else
        {
            noRemoteMessage.SetActive(true);
        }
    }
}

And the celebration fireworks are going off downunder  :)

Thanks very much Mike for putting me out of my misery with that controller check. Monday morning I was actually going to remove support for the Gear VR as I'd completely had enough which would have been a shame as the app looks clearer and more vivid colours on the Samsung phone compared to the Oculus Go screen.

I followed exactly what you said and now have a nice popup screen with text and a controller graphic when the gear VR has no controller attached and a no show screen if it is attached.

App just resubmitted and will wait to see how it goes with the Oculus store guru's.

Final code below just in case anyone else out there stumbles across this post in search of a solution to the following test fail.


The using parts at the top I just got from another CS file so you may not need all four of them

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class CheckForRemote : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject noRemoteMessage;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        noRemoteMessage.SetActive(false);
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (OVRInput.IsControllerConnected(OVRInput.Controller.RTrackedRemote))
        {
            noRemoteMessage.SetActive(false);
            Destroy(gameObject); //Found Controller so can destroy this object to stop constant checking
        }
        else
        {
            noRemoteMessage.SetActive(true);
        }
    }
}

Mike, please PM me your PayPal account address if you have one and I'll gladly transfer some cash to get you a 6 pack of Kronenbourg or your preferred beer / wine.

Really appreciate the help.

Hi Andrew

Glad you got it working and can now launch with Gear VR support.

I don't have PayPal but no need, I'm happy to help out where I can. As an indie developer I know how frustrating things can be sometimes when your on your own.

Best of luck with the technical review and the game

Mike

Yes... certainly frustrating at times. My app is one of those 360 VR experiences of Crater Lake in Oregon with popup info windows and animations. Bit of a steep learning curve for me but worth it.

I'll be getting a Rift S in a couple of months so will check out your Time Crystal and Tranquility apps. 

Thanks again and greatly appreciated.

Andrew
