Both modulated shadows and Vulkan could really up the quality of the apps you receive for the GO.....after-all, don't you want to have visually impressive apps using the latest and greatest tech?!
Update your documentation to reflect these features not being supported. Even if a temporary note at the top of the page or outlined in the feature. This would save developers a lot of time and frustration.This falls on communication between the Unreal Documentation and Oculus Documentation teams.
A lot of the documentation for Oculus in relation to UE4 is out of date as well. Images, procedures, and even tools no longer exist in the engine. Trust me when I say, I know how often UE4 is up to date, but I feel the Oculus documentation could be updated half the amount of time which would better assist developers trying to create for the GO.
