Package Manager: "Meta XR Interaction SDK" VS "Meta XR Interaction SDK OVR Integration" difference ?

Hello !

Since the Oculus Integration SDK is being split into different modules and will only be available through the Unity Package Manager from now onwards (as show here), I'd like to know what's the difference between the Meta XR Interaction SDK and the Meta XR Interaction SDK OVR Integration packages ?

Hi jazzbach, Meta XR Interaction SDK provides the core components of Interaction SDK, which are agnostic to the platform and data sources. Meta XR Interaction SDK OVR Integration on the other hand depends on the Meta XR Core SDK package, and provides data sources and features provided by this Core package.

If you are using the Meta XR Core SDK then you should use the Interaction SDK OVR Integration to take advantage of the Core functionality, and we also recommend checkout out the sample scenes within the Interaction SDK OVR Samples package as well.

If you are not using the Meta XR Core SDK then you can still use the interactions within the Meta XR Interaction SDK package, you will just need to provide data sources for your specific platform/use case.

Thanks for the tip - that's what I needed too.

DvNn how did you figure that out though? I'm curious if there's some documentation I'm missing. I haven't really seen any formal documentation clarifying this.
