How to make a door in VR - Unity tutorial

[@GamerReality]

Thank you for another helpful tutorial! If it isn't too hard, I would love to see a tutorial on getting physics based interactions in VR like boneworks.

[@neddo1598]

Gamer Reality the boneworks engine was designed from the ground up by the team, so it would be very hard. However if you have knowledge with programming physics you could try that, there could be a realistic physics thing in the assest store or a tutorial for it.

[@Johnny-wn4dl]

@@neddo1598 no it wasn't lmao, it uses unity

[@neddo1598]

Johnny VRer the physics engine is custom, but other than physics, yes it uses unity

Here is a fix for the new XR Interaction Toolkit I made! using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.XR.Interaction.Toolkit; public class handleGrab : XRGrabInteractable { public Transform handler; public Rigidbody rb; public void EndGrab() { rb.velocity = Vector3.zero; rb.angularVelocity = Vector3.zero; transform.position = handler.transform.position; transform.rotation = handler.transform.rotation; } } Then Inside the script New XRGrab Interactable go under 'OnSelectExited' and slot in the 'EndGrabFunction'.

YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hasannagaria1395]

I just want to say thank you. I am new to VR dev and with this little methodology you just gave me the ability to do so much more then open doors! Your videos have been abundantly helpful!

[@orioncloud1772]

I'm using oculus integration in unity 2021.3.2f1 now. And It works very well. Thank you so much for your effort.

[@buddster124]

Love the video, Could you do a video make a video on climbing?

[@AlexLeggo]

[@playerzklubvrstudios4077]

Yes, on both SteamVR and Quest :-)

[@jonathanlovholm5132]

Would love that!

[@TsetTsyung]

What game had that "magnetic hand" that you showed at the beginning? I had THE EXACT same idea to use Inverse Kinematic character body with VR. Oh well... at least I now know I'm not quite as stupid as I once thought, lol. Thanks so much for another informative video. Keep them coming.

[@ValemVR]

Thanks Michael, its from Enrique Tromp, I am not sure the game is annouced yet but yere is the original tweet with more information. twitter.com/entromp/status/1149699790277623809?s=09

[@justsports9677]

Great tutorial, can this scene be extended to have custom hand mesh grabbing the handle and the real hand turning "ghost like"?

[@PixelWitch]

Thank you, I would have taken a million years to bumble through figuring out all these solutions on my own.

[@cakeservant]

Awesome Tutorial! Taught me a lot of new Mechanics. I never used Hinges or Joints before... so thanks!

[@heliorabadantoro105]

All said Valem thank you very much, im looking foor VR tutorials all over the internet, and your tutorials are the best, keep on like that man, thanks for helping everybody,is good that we help eachother¡¡

[@haiminh643]

Good Job Bro, I would like to want make a book which can interac with pages and I find your video which helps me very much. Book and Door are same

[@ptinosq]

If your custom hands are in the floor and not moving, place CustomHandRight/Left under OVRPlayerController > OVRCameraRig > TrackingSpace> Right/LeftHandAnchor

[@GeekyLuigi]

Wish there was a simple way to combine this with the SteamVR SkeletonPoser to have the hand model "snap" to the door handle while you're pulling.

[@KentHambrock]

This explains the issues I was having so perfectly. Thank you so much for this.

[@ndonkey]

Thanks s much for another really helpful tutorial. Cant wait to see what you do next :) Any chance we will see a gun holster/inventory system where you can connect items to your body as you move around?

[@sirawesomeness7543]

Now you gotta make a tutorial on inverse kinematics using vr to show us how to snap to objects

[@DNetworking]

This is a cool trick for dressers, doors, and so on. XD Thanks a lot for these tutorials

[@devseb]

I love your videos. Thank you.

[@jonathanlovholm5132]

Youre awesome man, so helpful! Keep up the great work!

[@JessicaSFranco]

Hello Valem. Great Video. Have been learning a lot with you. I would love to know how you can move the hands in the unity play mode.

[@THE_ONLY_GOD]

Thanks! Can do a tutorial on how to make the UltimateXR style (VRmada) arm extenders shown in that video?

[@Corysia]

Thank you so much for doing this tutorial!

[@gwenthetodeke]

Some bits are outdated, unfortunately. Please, can you recreate this tutorial with the new OpenXR?

[@bthadley5006]

Can you do a tutorial on Buttons and Levers using the Oculus Integrated tools?

[@elaboure]

How would you make a foldable door (with the external pane being grabbable) ? Simply adding panes with hinge in between, or is it more complex with need to add scripts, etc. to have the various panes moving together ? And also.. comparing with your other video "Introduction to VR in Unity - PART 7 : DOOR, LEVER, DRAWER,...", this video looks more complex.. I could build simple grabbable doors without all the scripts and intermediate cubes of this video.. So what's the best way for making foldable doors ?

[@ruhlmcu]

Valem, Thanks for the tutorial. Can you explain how objects that slide in and out (like a drawer) or twist (like a dial) might work? Are there joints involved or just a colliders to keep things aligned?

[@Biestly122]

How does the "ForceRelease" work with the new XR Interactable Toolkit?

[@TheAdventuresOfMontuMiah]

It's better and much easier to use Steam VR or VRTK. Much smoother and no extra code. Using unity's joints are a mess and probably a bad idea. NEWTON VR was the best solution but the developer discontinued that remarkable asset. Anyway use whatever you find comfortable. Nice video! Thanks Valem.

[@Robber7]

How does steamVR work on games that arent Steam games?

[@hasannagaria1395]

I would like to ask, is overriding the Oculus SDK something that I should be doing a lot? I.e for different behaviors and such? For example if I am looking to do things like nested grabs or two handed grab or play certain animations?

[@pixelb0i255]

Always on point!!

[@teemuleppa3347]

Hi, awesome content ! Could you also make a tutorial about how to add realistic touch to characters...ie. let's say you have a 3d model of npc and when touching it the mdoel would realistically interact... eg. dents in the skin etc.... sorry my english is bad but im sure you know what i mean :)

[@SlamDunkYaJunk]

It wont let me put a rigidbody in the ConnectedBody slot of both the HingeJoint and the FixedJoint????? Am I missing something?

[@NeroForte_]

Hello, Valem. The issue now is We move through the walls and the door. how can we avoud that. i tried coliders and rigid body on walls and ground, but no luck

[@heliorabadantoro105]

Hello again¡¡ i did it, but i dont know if it is correct, what i made is to put the distance Grabber hands in the scene with vissible Skinned mesh renderer, and put also aswell the CustomHands but with the Skinned mesh renderer off, and right now it works perfectly well is it a good solution?

[@thomasbodin9029]

Merci pour le feedback Thomas ça fait plaisir ! :)

Like so he can make series about making horror games in VR!

[@Sueko2009]

Your tutorials are awesome!! Do you have already one where i need to turn down the handle to be able then to open the door, and then if the door closes it resets making again the need to turn the handle.

[@SibrisLarenz]

QUESTION! - Say you have a flight craft cockpit, and have a steering wheel of sorts for control of your craft, what should I use instead of the hinge joint? I've ran into an issue where the angle limits wont work on the HingeJoint if the rigid body is kinematic, and if its not kinematic, the object will not transform along with the parent object. Suggestions to alternatives short of programming my own joint? - Thx

[@erdemhilmi]

I love the video, but there is little problem. Public OVRgrabable doesn't have HTC Vive either. I don't know which class to use. Somebody help me please

[@eshapatil9858]

the door i made is spinning 360 degrees continuously, how do I solve it?

Question custom hands has Parent Transform and Player... what should I put for player

Problems i'm dealing with: - Your way of setting up the player controller makes my movement glitchy ( When turning left or right i spin in a circel and phase trough walls...) - Can't grab objects... (gave a cube rigidbody and OVR Grabble script with "snap position" Enabled.) - When exporting my project to quest, and open the game. I have four hands instead two ( two hands wich are dark blue ish and two hands wich are the same mesh as those of the "custom hands" prefab... Please help me : ( Gotta finnish this project next week....

[@lovesterposey5109]

Hello, I'm trying to combine this video and the object grabbing video. I am trying to make a mini gun that requires two hands to aim and shoot. I've added hinge joints to the front and back, but when I grab it the physics is ignored. Also, I can only hold with one hand when I try with two it just switched hands. Any advice??

Can you do a tutorial on how to make a game for the oculus go plz?

[@emilypolanco4014]

When I apply the Door grabbable script, I can move my grabbable handler once but then it goes flying into space like Vector3.zero is not working. Any advice?

[@krabesandwich]

Hi, Great tutorial! I have made a cabinet door that opens and closes, but the door does not want to stay closed all the way. How I can I get it to stay closed without bouncing open a little. I have tried adjusting the damping on the hinge and the mass on the rigidbody and it seems to help a little. Any suggestions? Thanks!

[@ValemVR]

Really good question! Hopefully there is an easy fix for this also, go to the hinge joint of the door and check the spring box, it will add a force that will automatically rotate the door towards the centee

[@krabesandwich]

Valem ok thanks!

[@lukeyager5039]

Hey man, I love your videos and they've really gotten me into VR development. One problem I'm still having is that the quest won't let me use both hands(and the one that works is 3dof not 6).

Hi¡¡ please is there any way to make it work with Distance Grab Hands? i've been trying to inegrate the distance grab hands,and i dont know how to make it work

I would suggest looking at his tutorial where he was setting up distance grabbing hands + creating some cubes to grab from a distance using said hands. Maybe you'll think of a way to do by watching it :o

[@II3URNZ]

my door gets destroyed by the kinematic cube LUL damn edit: nevermind i fixed it by using a smaller collider box :)

[@soundsosound]

Thanks a lot. This was super helpful! Had to adopt this a bit to the new XR Interaction Toolkit. I just could not find out, how the last step can be realised, as there does not seem to be a ForceRelease method in the XR Grab Interactable class. But what even bothers me more is, that my character controller pushes the door - not when I use the thumbstick, but when I move my head into it. This even pushes the door out of its anchor. And sometimes my character controller is suddenly beamed up onto the door. Any idea, how this can happen? I use the XR Origin (action based) with a character controller component - no Rigidbody.

[@mateofloyd5263]

try to using Physics.IgnoreLayerCollision, so anytime you grab the door you will be ignoring the collision with this

[@halabahahg5759]

why is the door disapearing
