Need to disable movement completely

You have to also disable time-warp, as I have mentioned.

I have, both instances of it... Still shows this movie screen like effect.

Do you have some example code?
Trying to attach my stuff but i dont know how to on this forum...

Both Time warp and Freeze time warp are unchecked, and position tracking is checked.

Then, in my camera rig i have...

#if !UNITY_ANDROID || UNITY_EDITOR
	private void LateUpdate()
#else
	private void Update()
#endif
	{
		EnsureGameObjectIntegrity();
		
		if (!Application.isPlaying)
			return;

		UpdateCameras();

		if(trackingEnabled) {

			UpdateAnchors();
		}
	}

#endregion

Any guesses?

I just tried again with my instructions, and they work fine with Unity 5.0.1f1 and Oculus 0.5.0.1 (confusing numbers I know!). The issue is almost surely that time-warp is still enabled.

Please follow these steps exactly:

I can email you a picture of my OVRManager script... its
Use position Tracking
[] Time warp
[] Freeze time warp
Reset tracker on Load
[] Monoscopic
[] Hdr

I'm on Unity 4.6.2f1, and i'm not sure how to check the oculus version - but i downloaded it about a week and a half ago so i doubt its out dated. Where can i check the version?

I wonder if i'm portraying what the end result is correctly - Basically when I disable the UpdateAnchors(), it essentially takes a screenshot of what the Head mounted display is looking at - so if you don't move your head, basically i have my desired effect. However, if the user then looks around, this screenshot stays put and locked, but its "movie screened" in a black world, and the user can look wherever, even behind them (and the "Screenshot" is off the screen entirely.

Have you seen this before? Do you have some sort of sample simple project so I can test something that you see working?

Yes, I've seen this exactly before. It happens when you disable tracking but have time-warp enabled.

I just ask that you follow the instructions I posted exactly (look at the code and the screenshot).

Have followed your instructions EXACTLY, even with the same code and variable names. Still does this "window" with a stale world, while tracking the head movements.

This even happens when I tie the "trackingEnabled" to false on scene load (and not have it based on a button toggle). Like in the script parameters.

I'm so at a loss here. This seems like something that should be simple. What could I be missing? Do you have a simple unity file with an example you could send me? or maybe post your entire OVRCameraRig?

Hmm, Just thinking through this...

I think the issue on my application is is that i'm trying to do this as a "toggle", so the scene allowing for the tracking of the HMD initially, and then disabling it on a button press.

However, this means that the scene initially runs through "UpdateAnchors()" several times (particularly, at startup, in the Start() method, and does not just return;). Is this what attaches the camera to the Head Mounted Display (HMD)? It seems so. If so, how would I enable this "toggle" functionality? Is there any way to essentially reset the camera to be stuck where the user is currently looking?

So sad this doesnt seem to be working. No matter what I try, i get this movie screen effect. I've even changed the above now to be set through the unity editor ("Checking Disable Tracking"), and it still movie screens on me. Could it be because I have several other scenes that use this OVRCameraRig script, and have probably already run through this UpdateAnchors() method before?

**Edit** - I've even made a brand new application. Nothing in it but 1 scene which has a cube, and the OVRCameraRig prefab. Edited everything the way you said, and i still get the "Screen" effect. Help! Could this be because i'm deploying to an android device? The Samsung Gear VR. But I don't see how that would be an issue...

I don't think the toggling would mess anything up, as I have done this just checking the box I created while the game was playing and it worked fine.

Still trying to debug this....

If i amend my OVRCameraRig to be:

if (disableTracking) {
			OVRManager.display.RecenterPose();
			return;
		}

Then it gives me the desired effect (The scene freezing and essentially just being a monitor in front of you) and disables looking side to side, but it still has this "movie theater" effect for looking up and down.

Cyber, could you maybe email me a simple unity project that you are enabling/disabling this on? I just can't understand whats missing here...

Yeah, sure. I can send you a project. Not sure why my instructions aren't working for you.

The files are on my work computer, but I can check tomorrow.
