Our game won't get past loading screen in Quest
Hi Guys. For the last few days I've not been able to get our game to launch natively in VR in the Quest and I'm wondering what types of topics I should be looking into. I can build in Unreal 4.27.2 Meta Fork v57, and it was all working last Wednesday lunchtime. I can upload the APK successfully to the Quest 2 and 3, and both fail to get past the initial loading screen and return to the main Quest menu/lobby. I have tried going back in Gitlab/GitHub to the last day it worked with a dedicated branch and I did manage to get one successful build to launch in the Quest, but unfortunately I am not really sure which setting made it work and when I try to reproduce it again it fails. The last setting I changed was moving it from 'Shipping' to 'Development' so I thought it was that, but it appears not. Since then I've been trying Git branches from different days with various settings I know I played with when it did work, and haven't had any luck. I'm now trying to see if I get a Vanilla VR Template from Epic to build, and having trouble getting it to copy the APK to the headset (fails with the red bar in HUB) but that's never surprising as any initial project setup always takes some noodling to get it to work. The upgrade to Meta Fork 4.27.2 v57 was fairly recent but it has been working for a couple of weeks. The only other change was integrating FMOD into our pipeline and that we got working as well for a couple of days. I've looked into that, but it's hard to eliminate it as a related issue. Any clues would be appreciated. Thank you.1KViews0likes1Commentovr_IAP_LaunchCheckoutFlow Dialog Immediately Closes
When calling ovr_IAP_LaunchCheckoutFlow, a popup will appear showing three white dots and then immediately closes. No error messages and the purchase does not return as being cancelled. I can see in the android logcat an IAP API call that includes the SKU and I couldn't identify any IAP errors. I used the 4.27 Launcher and Oculus build of UE4 and both have the same issue.

Unexpected Editor Crash (4.27.2) With OpenXR
Hello World! I am working with the Quest 2 and recently I am seeing this error in my Unreal projects. This triggers every alternate time I play (VR Preview) from Unreal Editor.

Ending development for UE4 is a huge mistake.
The branch of UE4 is being abandoned with a series of bugs that were never fixed, bugs that break the proper functioning of the engine. UE5 is clearly aimed at new generation consoles, the performance loss on mobile devices is huge, mainly due to the lack of features such as software occlusion. The lack of fixes and the implementation of new features in UE4 coupled with the loss of performance in UE5 may doom the development of quality Unreal apps for the Quest platform. I opened an issue reporting this: https://github.com/Oculus-VR/UnrealEngine/issues/300 According to Jay from Meta they are discussing about the possibility to release another version of UE4 4.27.2 with fixes. It is important that you as a developer take this opportunity to report the issues you are experiencing with the current UE4 version, as well as suggest improvements. So at least we will have a more reasonable last version to finish our projects...1.3KViews3likes1CommentUE4 OculusSceneActor Mixed Reality walls scale issue
I was trying to expand the wall and found an issue with the scale. Somehow, it is also able to affect the plane orientation. When I attach any 3d asset on the wall, it causes the geometry of my asset go berserk. To fix this, I had to create a new plane actor at origin and apply the original scale to get the dimension. Then, using the "GetComponentBounds", I recalculate the scale. With this new fixed scale, I can create my new wall. Also, I had to call "ClearScene" on "OculusSceneActor " after building my custom walls because Quest performance is tanking if I left it on.943Views0likes0Comments

If there is a better way to do this, please let me know. In the development build, wavs are exported to the following folder. /sdcard/Android/data/(Package Name)/files/UE4Game/(app_name)/Wav (For example, is there any other way than modifying the UE engine to export to the MUSIC folder?)957Views0likes0CommentsFirst Project using Oculus Quest 2 and VR Preview Disabled / Greyed Out in Unreal Engien 4.27.2
