[GO] UE 4.21.2 + 1.34 app instantly closes after launch

@NinjaGaijin ^^ I submitted a bug report for that last night  :)

I wonder if no one even using 4.21.2 + 1.34 currently :/

I'm not, will be soon though once I finish all of the updates for my current game. 

I'm of the mindset to not transfer projects to newer versions of ue4. I know you CAN, but all I ever see are problems lol. Is there no reason you can't just finish it in 4.21.1? My current game is still using 4.16 lol, everything would stop working if i tried it in 4.21

That's actually a mistake, since UE4 keeps making things better for VR with every release. On top of that if no one tests newer version, Oculus/Epic will not know about bugs. That's actually the case with mobile VR and UE4 - only a few people use UE4 for mobile VR and even less people report bugs. Thus we have lingering bugs in the engine related to mobile VR.

Also, if you are on 4.16, you are lacking a ton of performance and functionality improvements, especially in Audio/Platform departments.

My project is still in the very early stages where I can afford to update to most recent version.

If I was a better programmer or had the time, I'd agree with you. I'm a one man team that does this in my free time.  For me, the best option is to not mess with it. I don't have the time to fix half of my code lol. a large part of that stems from using plugins that wouldnt transfer well. Besides, at this point, I'm almost done. by the end of the month I'll be using the newest versions with you! 

@motorsep, I'm using ue 4.21.2 plus 1.34. From the Oculus distribution  but only with Rift.
Sometime I don't now why my game is crashing also without warning even if the build was good.
When this is happening I delete all the files in my project and keep only:
Config
Source
Content
Plugin
xx.upropject
 Re-generate VS project file and rebuild all.

@Neontop

You wouldn't have any issues with Rift, because it builds DLL for Windows. In my case, it also builds DLL for Android, which isn't how it works. I think it's still issue with new Audio SDK.

I tried recently the template of @beaulima9933 v5.1 with the Oculus dis ue 4.21.2 and I have to flag false the Oculus Audio plugin has it crash the template on launch. 
Good luck.

Well, that defeats the purpose of using the new build of UE4 - I'd like to have 1.34 Audio SDK with new occlusions and stuff.

Check in Project Settings 
- Go to bottom end  - OculusVR and Launch Utilities - Select Mobile and Click on all the suggestions like android config..etc
- Make sure your android sdk is Android 21, higher version not supported. 
- Uncheck the "Use Gradle instead of Ant", Gradle builds on the higher android version.
- Textures format is ASTC, I think you already know this.
Try these and let me know.
