[SOLVDED] [UE4 4.11.1 / 4.11.2] Problems getting sample content
Hey there! This is my first post in this forum and I hope it won't be the last one.
I'm new in developing for DK2 and UE4. The only thing I've installed it's the UE4 Version 4.11.1 / 4.11.2 and the new Oculus app (latest runtime). In the Oculus app I can do many things, I can play games, have friends, etc etc, but in Unreal Engine I can't do anything. I'm trying to follow the documentation from UE but it must be outdated or something like that.
When I open a blank project with content sample, I try to open the VR level but it doesn't appear. I also have tried to download the ShowdownVRDemo but it doesn't work on my DK2. The thing is I can't check the option of "VR Preview" and the Oculus Rift checkbox is marked on the plugins page. What I do to enable it is: Edit->Plugins->Virtual Reality->Check "SimpleHMD"->Reboot editor->"VR Preview" is enabled-> I play it-> Can see the doubled screen in my computer but not in the Oculus HMD. I've tried ALT+ENTER, commands, and everything but still doesn't work.
I need help! :P
Thank you in advance!
[SOLVED] Ok, new runtime fixed it all. OMG you can't imagine my happiness right now!

Nice one, could you let me know what your successful settings were? what runtime, card and drivers etc? lots of people struggle with this issue so any info' you can give would be greatly received.

- I have the same problem!
- Yep, 4.11.1 and up should work on DK2 with the latest runtime from https://www.oculus.com/en-us/setup. Once you install that, it will keep itself up-to-date, prompting you when updates are available.
