Basic Question about Frame Rates
Sorry for the simple question, I came to Oculus as a end user, and now I have decided to move on into Unity.
Everything working fine, and I'm at the scene creation part, and not having any issues designing the scenes using a mix of my own design as well as assets which are really useful.
I've intergrated the Rift with no issues, and had a good walk around my scenes, and I'm going to move onto Trigger events soon, sound etc but before that I have a question about Frame Rates.
After I have designed my scene, I press the Play button in Unity, put my headset on, and I'm in the scene. When I press space bar, it shows me the FPS, which for most of the time shows a solid 75 FPS, but in some scenes, this drops to 64 FPS. It only does this within Unity, because if I build the project and run the exe, I get a solid 75 FPS everywhere.
Now I understand there is going to be an overhead running it in Unity, so generally, without having to build my project to test FPS, is there a general rule of thumb anyone uses to test FPS within Unity, and how do I know what sort of spare room I have got in terms of FPS or is it just trial and error? I mean, let's say I am showing a solid 75 FPS, this is fine for the DK2, but how do I know that my project is going to reach 90 FPS for example?
Thanks
