How to do Multilayered Cameras With 0.4

That's odd, the two cameras should render with no difference in latency. You might want to double-check Camera.depth. Your near rig's depth should be higher than your far rig's. Have a look at Assets/OVR/Scenes/MultiCamera.

I just looked at the MultiCamera scene included with the 0.44 Unity package, but there's no difference in the Depth or Clipping Planes settings between the cameras. Am I missing something?

Looks like the scene has been screwed up. The two OVRCameraRig GameObjects should not be associated with the same prefab. Here's how it should be for the left and right camera on each rig:

Near Rig:
Depth = 1
Near Clip = 0.0001
Far Clip = 0.1
Clear Flags = Depth Only

Far Rig:
Depth = 0
Near Clip = 0.1
Far Clip = 1000
Clear Flags = Skybox

Great! Thanks for clearing that up! Got it working now :) Happy new year!

Cheers vrdaveb,

That MultiCamera scene def needs to be updated with those correct settings for the two near cameras and an actual skybox for it to make sense!

Am starting to work on a DK2 prototype now with Unity, so looking forward to taking part in these forums etc.

Is there a way to make the 2nd OVR camera not rotate when the rift rotates? I would like to have a static OVR camera to render special effects.

Blur Image Effect still doesn't work for layered cameras (I have OVR 0.4.4 and Unity 4.6.1).

My background OVR rig has lower camera depth and Solid as "Clear Flags" and blur effect, while my foreground OVR rig has higher camera depth and "Don't Clear", but the foreground cameras do not respect the depth data rendered by the background cameras (foreground cameras always render on top of background cameras, regardless of existing pixel depth).

With standard, non-Oculus cameras this setup works as intended. Any ideas what to do?

Hello Everyone.

I've finally managed to get my depths etc set up on a multi camera rig, the problem now comes with trying to move my player controller.

OVRPlayerController
--ForwardDirection

--Near
----LeftEyeAnchor
----CenterEyeAnchor
----RightEyeAnchor

--OVRCameraRig
----LeftEyeAnchor
----CentreEyeAnchor
------HandController
----RightEyeAnchor



OVRPlayerController: More then 1 OVRCameraRig attached.
UnityEngine.Debug:LogWarning(Object)
OVRPlayerController:Awake() (at Assets/OVR/Scripts/Util/OVRPlayerController.cs:112)

Is there a workaround for this.

How would I go about setting up a multi-layered CharacterController?
Any Ideas?

Also the plugin on the first page wont download. could someone provide me with an alternative link

Can anyone confirm that as of 0.4.4, it is safe to use more than 1 OVRCameraRig to achieve layered camera set up?

Are there any known limitations? Does anything have to be done in order to make sure they are all initialized and recognized correctly by the OVRManager?

Thanks!
