Reset Orientation

Here is one way to do it. Copy and paste the following code into a new C# script in your project and then attach the script to a GameObject in your scene.

using UnityEngine;

public class Reset : MonoBehaviour {	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
		if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.R))
			OVRDevice.ResetOrientation();
	}
}

The previous code would reset the orientation when you pressed "R". To reset when the player has turned farther than "MaxRotation", try this:

using UnityEngine;

public class Reset : MonoBehaviour {
	public float MaxRotation = 90f;

	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
		Vector3 pos = Vector3.zero;
		Quaternion rot = Quaternion.identity;
		OVRDevice.GetCameraPositionOrientation(ref pos, ref rot);
		if (!(rot.eulerAngles.y < MaxRotation || 360f - rot.eulerAngles.y < MaxRotation))
			OVRDevice.ResetOrientation();
	}
}

Both very useful .

Hi, I find this errors on the scripts

Assets/PREFAB/RESET.cs(7,35): error CS1501: No overload for method `ResetOrientation' takes `0' arguments

Assets/PREFAB/Reset_2.cs(3,14): error CS0101: The namespace `global::' already contains a definition for `Reset'

and the.... All compiler errors must be fixed before...

What I am doing wrong ?

Thx

You might be using a version of the SDK where ResetOrientation requires a sensor #. Try changing it from ResetOrientation() to ResetOrientation(0).

If the class name "Reset" conflicts with something else in your project, you could also rename that to "ResetCamera". You'll need to rename the script to "ResetCamera.cs".

Thank you VRDave!

Here is a modified version of the reset orientation script that resets when any key is pressed.

using UnityEngine;

public class ResetAnyKey : MonoBehaviour {   
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
		if (Input.anyKeyDown)
			OVRDevice.ResetOrientation();
	}
}

I'm using it within the 'Health and Safety Warning' display so as a user clears the warning they go into the menu facing the proper direction. The file name should be "ResetAnyKey.cs".

Thanks for the scripts!
