Bloom Effect on Oculus Quest with UE4

Hi, 

I'm wondering if anyone has experience making bloom effect work on Oculus Quest. When I enable the bloom option the apk doesn't run on Quest. 

Any tips would be extremely welcome!

Thanks!

    You need to enable Mobile HDR to get bloom working on android/quest, see for example:
    This unfortunately has a huge performance drop meaning for the majority of projects it's un-usable.

    In some cases you can fake the bloom using a transparent plane glow texture as a potential workaround

    I ended up using a transparent "shell" to fake the bloom effect. 

    It Looks good enough even when unlit. Thanks for the suggestion!
