Passthrough play mode doesn't work since Quest 3 update yesterday
I don't know how long the update was but it was working before the update and now it's not working. Normally I open unity and as long as I have quest link open on the headset and on my pc, clicking play in unity will launch the passthrough app preview on my headset. Now, when I go to launch link on the headset, it begins the colourful loading screen animation and then after a moment says "headset/pc disconnected - please disconnect and disconnect your headset" (or similar. Even though the desktop app shows the header as connective and active, and the quest home settings menu preview shows link as active.
Quest 3 new BUG : Big issue with the guardian while using Quest Link, and disabling guardian limits.
Hello, Since the last firmware update of my Quest 3, when I connect my Quest 3 to my PC using Quest Link, when using the Quest 3, the guardian limit of a room next to mine is always displayed. Even when I start a PC VR game (Flight Simulator for exemple) the blue limits of the room next to mine are still displayed on top of Flight Simulator. So the only solution I have found is to disable the guardian limit inside the Quest Link parameters on the Quest 3. But playing a VR game with no guardian is dangerous, plus there is a second problem : if I do not re-enable the guardian using the Quest Link parameters, then if I use my Quest 3 without connecting it to my PC, there is no way to re-enable the guardian, all the guardians parameters in the Quest 3 are greyed out. So then I am obliged to connect back my Quest 3 to my PC just to re-enable the guardian. So here are my 2 questions : - while using Quest Link (cable) how to force the guardian limits, which belong to the room next to mine, to not be permanently displayed (as it is also displayed while I play my PC games) ? - Once the guardian has been disabled in the Quest link parameters (while connected to a PC), how to re-enable the guardian on a Quest 3 without having to connect it to a PC ?? Thanks
Meta PC software can't reach Meta Quest Link services.
as you can see in my screenshot somethings not right. ive searched the internet but i found nothing, i use windows and this error came when i installed the software and it went through a scan to verify everythings alright. I also tried the "repair" button many times and uninstalled and reinstalled the program a couple of times but its still not working. (also restarted my pc many times and i also have a stable internet connection.) Does anyone know what i could try?
OVRBoundary.GetGeometry returns incorrect play area data when using Link
I am calling OVRBoundary.GetGeometry(OVRBoundary.BoundaryType.PlayArea) and receiving an array of four Vector3 as expected. Since the docs say these are in local space I'm converting them into world space by transforming them by OVRCameraRig.trackerAnchor. This produces different results based on headset: 1. Correct on Rift S in Unity Editor (Windows) 2. Correct on Quest 3 in a build (Android) 3. Incorrect on Quest 3 + usb Link in Unity Editor (Windows) 4. Incorrect on Quest 3 + Air Link in Unity Editor (Windows) 5. Incorrect on Quest 3 + usb Link in build (Windows) The common denominator seems to be Link. In this case while the actual dimensions seem correct, the OVRCameraRig.trackedAnchor has not been updated. It (and OvrCameraRig, and it's 'TrackingSpace' child) are all at identity. Which places the PlayArea points around where I booted the game, and not where the center of the PlayArea should be. This can be reproduced by creating an empty scene and adding the OVRCameraRig, and setting the tracking origin to 'Stage', then visulising the PlayArea rectangle in some way. Adding a LineRenderer under the TrackedAnchor and populating it directly with positions from GetBoundary shows the issue.

US Patent - Interactive Player Board Game I’ve recently been granted my first US Patent on 11/05/2024 for the idea to have a configurable game board with technology to check whether a rule of the game has been satisfied. Was wondering if anyone would be interested in developing this type of game for the Oculus. I see the possibility of having the user be able to generate their own game board depending on the theme (exercise, eating, traveling, etc), setting the number of spaces for their game board, and have the ability to make this into a private game or public game. The user can invite friends to play on the game board and it can be played asynchronously. If the theme is exercise then if they roll a 1, they need to do 10 jumping jacks. The oculus will be able to see whether that task is completed successfully. If so they can roll again and see what task they need to perform next. Each game can be considered to be a pod and can invite others to join. Each person that joins is a pea in the pod because of their similar interest in the theme. Certain pods can become quite big with many peas. You can use the potential of these pods to generate income through ad revenues. The ads can target specific pods that may relate to the product. Please reach out to me if you think is a viable idea and can be developed. Thanks!Built Unity standalone app becoming laggy after enabling passthrough through airlink
Hi everyone, I have a problem regarding my built app becoming lagging after enabling passthrough in airlink, because I needed the depth api and passthrough mode. When I run the app when disabling passthrough in airlink, my app will run smoothly. I used the oculus debug tool and I will see that my compositor latency is very high when passthrough is being turned on. Any solution for this situation? I have connected my PC using ethernet cable and used a dedicated 5GHz router for my quest 3.
