7 replies

I try to increase / decrease the IPD value in my game settings. I use:

GameObject.GetComponent(OVRCameraController).IPD = ipdFloat;

This works, the value in OVRCameraController get changed in realtime but i see no effect on the camera.
When i "click" a second time on the OVR camera in the game hierarchy (editor), the camera jump to the new IPD position.

Is here a solution to refresh the OVR camera after changing the IPD by java script?

You should not need to be changing the IPD in your app.

Ideally the user would configure this once in the Config Util and all apps read that value.

Yes, i know. But it would be a nice feature to change fast the IPD value from the app settings with a slider.
It works only when the OVR camera is selected in the editor.

You can try setting "UpdateCamerasDirtyFlag" to true after adjusting the IPD but, again, I recommend you don't do this.

Yes. I try it already. But "UpdateCamerasDirtyFlag" is not public, its private.

The problem is all developers has different (favorite) IPD values. So a final 3D scenery looks different for many users, and a small IDP difference has a big 3d depth consequence.
Before oculus rift i use nvidias 3d vision, here you can also increase and decrease the 3d depth in game.

You shouldn't be using IPD as a "3D Strength Meter".

In any case, I believe you should be able to use:
