Unity 5.1 VR, Problem with Linear Color

Hi guys, I'm having some problems with the new Unity 5.1. When I try to use linear color spacing and the "virtual reality supported" option enabled, I get the following on may Console:

[CAPI] LibOVR module is located at C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\LibOVRRT64_0_6.dll
SUCCEEDED(hr)
depthSurface == NULL || rcolorZero->backBuffer == depthSurface->backBuffer
refCount == 0

The Oculus(DK2) displays the health info and then goes black. Is that a bug or linear color are not supported?

    Check the release notes. I think there is a known issue with linear.

    I am having the same problem. Just checked the known issues and sure enough:

    "Apps that use linear lighting won't render. Recommended to use gamma for now."


    huh. Hopefully they fix this soon

    Just saw this on the official unity forums:

    Apps that use linear lighting won't render. Recommended to use gamma for now.

    Thanks for the update, is this going to be fixed in the patch? This isnt a trivial setting... thanks!

    Fix is currently scheduled for patch 2 which is either next week or the following week.


    So not too bad :)

    They seem to know about it: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/psa-5- ... es.350644/

    My question is, does the 0.7 Runtime work with 5.1.3 regardless?

    EDIT: NVM, it does not seem to http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/oculus ... st-2271072
