Implement Login Operation When User Not Entitled

I think you might be confusing what the entitlement check is. The entitlement check makes sure that the user has purchased your application. This also covers receiving a key or being granted access through release channels. It's effectively a kind of DRM check to ensure the user has acquired the application through the oculus store (though it does not preclude you from selling your product through other stores, which would require you to implement their own version of DRM).

If you want people to login to some other kind of system, that is optional and up to you on how to implement it. But if a user does not have the Oculus entitlement, you should prevent the user from running your application (though you could just throw some text up on the screen saying they are not entitled and the application will now quit).

Sorry seems that I didn't state my question clearly... I meant to give another chance to user to logon to Oculus Store when he/she fails entitlement check when having an entitled account, like, when one has several Oculus accounts but not starting up the game with the right one logged in, or when one has accidentally gone offline when launching the game.

What we do now is quit the game directly if entitlement check fails, but I just want to make it smoother so players won't need to take off the HMD, do login process on PC, and then put the headset on again.

I'm pretty new to Oculus platform developing and have no idea if there's any API to pop up an in-game warning window (under VR mode) showing "You failed entitlement check" or so and a "Log in" button under it to hold the rest operations, or do we have to make a custom one?
