Unreal Multiplayer issue Joining Session
Hi, I've posted this on the Unreal forums as well so if I get an answer there I will post it here. I've been developing a VR demo in Unreal 4.22 for the Quest for about a month with great success. It is a multiplayer shooter and I've been hosting on the Quest or Vive and have tested with 4 players, everything's great, until... Randomly about a week and a half ago, for some reason the Join Session node is not allowing the client to connect to the listen server anymore. When the client calls Join Session after finding the server, the Join Session node fire off and complete off the success pin as if everything is fine! except nothing happens... I also setup a test in 4.23( of course following the instructions on this site) and am experiencing the same issue or issue where I connect to the listen server but it isn't the same instance of the server as the players cannot see each other inside the level. Has something changed recently regarding networking on the Quest? Is anyone else having multiplayer issue in Unreal recently? I feel like something changed and I just don't know about it.
Splitting Single OBB Expansion file, into Multiple OBB Expansion files [Unreal Engine 4]
Since OBB files have a limit of 4GB, we are looking at providing multiple OBB expansion files. On this topic, I was reading the following page https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/unreal/ps-assets/ I see how additional OBB expansion files can be provided as required assets, but how can the initial OBB be split into multiple smaller files? Does this require Engine changes? Just wondering if any other Unreal Engine developers have encountered this issue, and how they have solved it? Thanks
Cloth Simulation in Oculus Quest?
Hello, I tried to build a demo(including very very small size of cloth simulation) and played in oculus quest2(stand alone), but cloth simulation did not work, actually it showed just a mesh without any cloth simulation. However, Played Correctly in Unreal Editor's VR Mode. So I was wondering if I did wrong with the unreal engine setting for oculus quest, Are there some specific unreal settings that I should do for using cloth simulation? How shoud I do for it? Thanks for advices, have a nice day 🙂
Is it possible to deactivate Oculus sleep mode when removing HMD in Unreal builds?
Hello everyone! My team and me are working on a VR game. My game goes like: -The experience START when HMD detecting a player wearing it. -The experience STOP when HMD detecting nobody wearing it -then ***screensaver Mirrored on screen*** with the VR still activated (Working in Unreal Preview). We are using the proximity sensor of the Oculus to know when changing the level. (So it is impossible to just Tape the sensor to solve the issue). THE PROBLEM: The Oculus Rift in standalone builds, for performance issues or something, will not render camera when not weared, and then will not mirror any images on screen, making the screensaver full black. Is there any option, or modifiable SDK code to prevent Oculus to stop render? Thank you!
