Let's Make a VR Game Part 1 - VR Setup and Hand Presence

[@waffle_cs366]

*IF YOUR HANDS AREN'T WORKING* My hands were getting stuck in the floor and not working at all. I did some digging and apparently you need to add a component called "Input Action Manager" to the "Left Controller" and "Right Controller" objects. Then you need to go under "Action Assets" and click the + symbol. Then select the circle thing to the right of the element and select "XRI Default Input Actions." Then hit play and it works (at least it did for me).

[@waffle_cs366]

I was pulling my hair out tryna figure this out lmao

[@FileTh1rt3en]

I think you can just add one and it can be anywhere in the scene, I typically put mine on my XR Rig.

[@WhoopyStick]

Dearest Valem, I know you are a busy man, saving the world one tutorial at a time. But I humbly request a tutorial dealing with an array of things across a multiplayer photon network and dealing with final IK if there is time for it. Unless there is a place to ask you for help specifically. You rock. Stay fly.

[@enesbunyamincelik9622]

I definetly agree to you bro I want to leanr multiplayer logic in VR as well.

[@CactusVRstudios]

It's nuts how the SDKs change so dramatically. How many times have you had to revise this so far? While I'm stuck in my big game project, I kinda lose the versions out of sight and when I check your channel, I'm often flabbergasted what has changed in XRI, Oculus Integrations, MRTK etc. Sometimes, even stuff I squeezed in myself is now a basic function in XRI and I'm afraid to upgrade the toolkit. I think you know what I mean. Anyway, lads and lassies, if you really want to learn making VR apps, this is the channel!

I like the portal ripoff you did :)

Thanks for the very helpful video. I am only 1/2 way through and got stuck when first trying the interaction. The controllers were not visible. I found with XR Interaction Toolkit 2.5.1 that the controller model prefabs are not set like yours (just visible at 5:59)

your probably on a different version, I switched from 2022.3.9 (which didn't show controllers) to 2022.3.7 (which showed controllers). The controllers don't even matter as he gives them the ban hammer a minute later anyway

[@EOS-ci1po]

me too. can't find VR controllers in VR Scene. unity 22.3.7f1, XR interaction toolkit 2.4.3

[@greendino30ba65]

Tysm for this series!! VR Development is so hard to wrap my head around. I'm trying to add additional hand animations and I can't figure out how to add something like the thumbs up since the blend tree has a limit of two values. I also don't know how to check for thumbstick contact on the oculus controller. Will you be doing a more advanced animation video in the future?

[@proKaps]

Here you can simply make three nested 1D Blend Three, and in each one setup, respectively, from Idle to Trigger, Grip and ThumbsUp.

[@landon1460]

Im having issues with the movement I have the hands in the game and I can move my fingers and everything but the joysticks do not let me move around

[@Imperial_Dynamics]

Hi from Greece. Wouldn't it be a good idea to also enable the VR Device Simulator? Having to put the headset on every time you test a change is annoying.

[@WhatWhatWHAT233]

i can't find the whole "XR controller" thing and i was wondering if anybody could help me with that?

[@부앋]

Is there difference between built-in vs URP?? What has more assets in asset store?

[@jeremychan2006]

i am unable to make pinch and trigger work on Quest 3 even before all the terminator hand stuff. I added debug statements on the animateHandOnInput script and the values are all 0. I also tried changing the paths in XR Default Input Actions to use the touch pro controller profile but it didn't seem to work either.

[@ansdummymail2024]

how did you get that red dot on blend tree animation?

[@redshark8796]

Bonjour ! Merci beaucoup pour le tuto il est super bien, je le suis pour une veille technologique sur la VR. J'ai un léger soucis, les modèles de mains n'ont pas de textures, ils sont rose. Est ce normal ?

[@손유경-l9t]

Thanks for your kind and detailed lecture. As a beginner, I'm following your lecture step by step. But the problem is that the Unity project goes down when I play even thought I did everything you said in the lecture. I've made a new projects and tried it again several times, but the same problem always happened. Could you let me know if you know how to solve the problem? Thank you.

[@cybor808]

I had a similar problem, caused by Oculus link not working. Stopped Oculus link. Restarted unity editor a few times, seems caching some stuff, and second time miraculus it played thé scene. I then reactivated Oculus link.

[@SamOnTehsea]

will it be possible to do a tutorial on the change between the 2.0 and 3.0 version of the XR toolKit ? I am not really sure how to use the new version.

[@yoonjukim7754]

Valem, please let me know how I can find more custom hand assets like the terminator asset! Really couldn't find much infos

Will this be compatible with the VR full body integration tutorial as well?

Hello there, I love your vids. Just a question, can't find the terminator hands in the assetstore. Are these free to use in other projects for commercial use or not? Kind regards :)

Sadly, with Q3, the floor Tracking Origin Mode is not working for me, my head appear in the ground :(

[@Ashtin-hb3yq]

Change it to device

[@GiantBean]

-As this is just setting animation poses will it work with any rigged hand or does the rig need specific bone structure and naming? There is nothing in the script suggesting it wouldn't work with a different bone structure but in a hand with 5 bones instead of 4, it doesn't seem to work?- Edit: I figured it out! I had just forgotten to set up the parameters in the animator. Thanks, Valem!

[@Parkourgorillavr]

Can someone help me? When I was following step by step I couldn’t find the same editor verison I could only find 2022.3.3.37f1 LTS and when I went to new projects I couldn’t find 3D URP

Hey dude, Im making this game in unity right now, I was wondering if I could build the environment and add some multiplayer stuff and publish it to app lab (ill give you credit for the game so theres no copyright)

[@gyproc9739]

there is a bug when ur hads are in the flor, i looke it up in internet and looks like its a popula problem. can u make a vid abt it? bc of this problem i cant repeat after u.

[@gilatto]

Make sure you're not using your real hands as these will not track. The hands you see in Valem's video are the controllers, and when they move it's because he's pressing the controller buttons to make these gestures.

[@riccardodeiuri8576]

Is the starter assets and the hands model open source?

[@Jennieeew]

I can't see my hands of VR (quest 2) Can I ask why for that?

[@GamingMoose1736]

Anyone know why when I start the game my camera is in the floor??

[@Sam_r16]

Have you discovered the solution? I am trying but I don't know how

[@Gasteryoug]

Salut Valem ! Je me demandais comment faire pour que les mains "Terminator" soient adaptées à la 3D non URP parce que j'ai déjà commencé mon projet et ça me prendrais trop de temps pour tout refaire. For those that are english and have the same issue i translated here what i asked (sorry if theres mistakes): Hello Valem ! Just wondering if there was a way to use the "Terminator" hands in a non-URP 3D Project because i already started my project and it wouls take me too much time to redo all the project in URP Just for custom hands Love your videos

[@itsaducklin]

Probably already did something about it, but the wireless vr headsets (including quests and picos) usually run on ANDROID. Are you converted to android, and do you have the right tools to actually upload android in the first place?

[@hi_hi535]

Hope u see this valem but is it physic movement? Like can my hands go through things or no

[@Walloie_vr]

Mine doesn’t say default controller it just says none what’s the issue?

[@JoshDreamsofClouds]

Do you need an oculus link to be able to test your own game? Or can even a simple MacBook charger cable can work?

[@roosevelt8731]

You need a USB cable with USB-C at one end to use oculus link feature. Oculus link cable from Meta is overpriced piece of wire, you can buy a resonable usb cable for oculus for 15$ (see eg: KIWI design Oculus cable or Ikar Vr cable) or just use your usb charging cable (it will work however for smooth performance I recement spending those 15$ to have at least 2Gbps transmision) Also if you have strong Wi-fi connection, use AirLink to achieve the same resoults

unsure if you fixed this but go to project starter assets and then go to prefabs and slect the controlers(there are 2 models one for left and one for right) and then connect them to the correct controller and then the models will work i must warn momvment will still not work which i am working on
