Enabling Facial Expressions on Networked Avatars
Hi all! I'm looking to enable face tracking for a multiplayer game I'm currently developing where each avatar is network instantiated. The current documentation explains how to set it up for local avatars. Is there any documentation available for networked instantiated avatars?
Change Meta avatar transparency
Hello, I want to make a remote Meta Avatar fade in and out. I can't find a way to make the avatar transparent. I can't find a way to access the mesh render and change the alpha channel. It must be possible as in the documentation they put best practice to fade in the avatar on loading:Meta Avatars hands tracking offset
I have upgraded my project from Avatars 2 SDK 8.0 to Meta Avatars SDK 9.0 and avatar hands started showing up very far away. It's like prime finger tip and hand wrist positions are mixed up. Can easily see the error on an empty project on Unity 2019.4.33f1, with XR Plug-in management enabled, Oculus Integration 35.0 on one the MirrorScene or NetworkLoopbackExample scenes.
Meta Avatars Appearing With Missing Head Or Body In The Unity Editor And On Windows Builds
UPDATE (01/03/2023): As of January 3rd 2023, Loading avatars with federated app ids simply doesn't work. Instead I get an error log saying 'Spec Request Failed'. UPDATE (12/22/2022): I've managed to narrow down this issue to something to do with the way avatars are loaded using federated app credentials. I've made a new post about this here: https://forums.oculusvr.com/t5/Unity-VR-Development/Loading-Meta-Avatars-With-Cross-Play-using-Federated-App-Are/m-p/1010823/highlight/true#M21422 As of the 16th December 2022 we have started seeing incompletely constructed avatars. The Meta Avatar SDK version we are using is 18.0. I have tried updating to 20.0 but still see the same problem. Here are some additional observations.: This does not occur on a Quest build. It happens in the Unity Editor or in a Desktop build. The problem sometimes resolves itself after I make a change to my avatar's look in settings, save the changes and then try reloading the avatar. The problem does not resolve itself by re-loading the user. If a user has the problem, it persists each time the avatar is loaded. Mostly the avatars head is missing, and occasionally only the hands of the avatar entity's LOD4 is visible: Help would be greatly appreciated as it is impossible to launch our product with Meta Avatars if this is not resolved.
