[Gear VR] SDKs as plugins for UE4 ?
I am wondering why doesn't Oculus make a plugin for UE4, the same way it does Utilities and such for Unity. I get it, Unity is what you guys use on daily basis, but it was my understanding you also us...

not sure why Epic refuses to enable GLES 3.1 + AEP. It's what you guys recommend for Unity.

Typical UE4 teams include programmers who can build from source, and apply patches from third parties such as Oculus and AudioKinetic. The binary releases are often limited or based on older versions of a given dependency. Or you could try 4.11 preview 7.
I prefer using UE4 binary releases

I (and I bet that many folks out there who chose to dev with UE4 too) would like to see at least one Gear VR Blueprint template for UE4 that has all the stuff that is required for release on Oculus Store (https://developer.oculus.com/documentat ... blish-req/ Technical section).

Downloads should continue

Oculus Social with lip sync would be cool too
