Oculus build works for 5.1.2f1 but not 5.3.5f1?
Hi Everyone, I am a teacher and have two carts with a workstation and an Oculus DK2 installed. In one computer lab, I have Unity 5.1.2f1 installed and in another room I am using a laptop cart which ha...
Does this mean that all .exe files directly built in Unity for VR will not be supported on the consumer model of the Oculus?No. SDK 1.3 and the latest Runtime both support DK2 in addition to the consumer Rift. The problem is that they aren't compatible with the 0.8 SDK or Runtime. The main reason they aren't compatible is that 0.8 lacked many important features, such as VR focus, audio redirection, recentering, and app lifecycle support. With the new Runtime, 0.8-based apps would therefore have a lot of issues. We decided to make a clean break between the old beta SDK and the new official one. Unfortunately, this does mean all apps will have to be rebuilt with 1.3 or newer before they will work.
do all games now have to be ported for the Oculus store?
No, you don't have to use our store. You can easily "sideload" apps by opening OculusClient and enabling Settings > General > Unknown Sources.
