UnityVr vs Oculus Utilities

Hi guys!
I'm at a confusion point...
I'm reading two separate docs:


I'm trying to use a single, unified base for my project, but I don't know which one I should stick with (integrating both sounds like a debugging nightmare waiting to happen).
I understand that Unity wants to cover more than just Oculus (Vive & PSVR), but what does that mean for Oculus developers when considering the two integrations?

My immediate questions are:


  • What things should I weigh in (pros/cons) considering which to marry my project with?

  • Is there any indication that Oculus Utilities will fully dissolve into UnityVr?



Any thoughts?

    Strange. I haven't seen anything like that. Can you send a project that reproduces the issue?

    Right, InputManager.asset doesn't affect OVRInput. The axes and buttons map directly to the controllers, so you would have to query a different value.

    We'll update OVRInputModule to use OVRInput instead of OVRGamepadController soon.

    The goal is to build all of this into Unity itself. Then you won't have to do anything special.

    Sorry, I have moved on with the project. Can't offer a version with the bug.

    It happened only in unity version 5.3.2p2.
    Maybe it was related to the bug that you have posted in the other thread.
