Competitive Games Thread
Hey everyone! I'm one of the new Moderators, and I wanted to say hello. I also want to ask you guys what you're playing as far as competitive multiplayer games. I used to be more of a fan of single player and cooperative gaming experiences, but when I was in high school I started playing Rocket League when it released. This game got me absolutely hooked and it is a game I still play to this day. I think the most rewarding part about these games is seeing the tangible progress you're making compared to other players. I feel like competitive games get a bad wrap because they tend to have more toxic communities than other genres, but for me nothing matches being able to easily measure my progress and compare it to other people. In addition to Rocket League I play a little bit of CS:GO but am not as competitive, and mostly just play with friends. What kind of competitive games are you guys playing? Are there any you would recommend that maybe a lot of people don't play, or are underrated?
gorilla tag not entering public lobby
I play on quest 2. I've been away from home for 2 weeks and when I came back, I turned on gorilla tag, jumped out the stump, waited a few seconds like I usually do, and nothing happened. I didn't enter a lobby. I restarted my quest and uninstalled and reinstalled gorilla tag but still, nothing would work. Can someone help please?
Any possibility of sharing spatialanchors in a local network?
So I've gotten the whole spatial anchor photon multiplayer to work, and it works pretty well, however I would really like to have the whole application be able to run on a local network. I've set up everything but I run into the problem that OVRSpatialAnchor is not serializable and cannot be converted to byte array or json for transport. I've even tried sending the OVRSpace and UUID seperately but OVRSpace is not serializable either and doesn't seem to contain the actual data just the ID to access the data (probably from the cloud). Now it has to be possible to serialize this data as there is an option to store the data locally. (unless that can be saved even though it isn't serializable?) Does anyone know what data format to use to do this manually?
Accepting Group Presence invites inside the app
Hi guys @OculusSupport , I'm implementing the multiplayer in my app using the Group Presence / Destinations APIs + Photon, using Unity 2020. Problem: - I can't find a way to let the users accept an invitation without going to the Notifications panel in the Oculus menu. This is horrible, because most of the users cannot find the Invites after the Toast is hidden. I've seen that in the old (to be deprecated) Rooms API we had the "Rooms.SetRoomInviteReceivedNotificationCallback", but I can't find anything similar for the Group Presence API. Also, I can use "GroupPresence.SetInvitationsSentNotificationCallback", "GroupPresence.SetJoinIntentReceivedNotificationCallback", but there is no "GroupPresence.SetInvitationsReceivedNotificationCallback". Does anyone have a clue about this?? Thanks in advance
