Meta Multiplayer Mixed Reality APP [Beginner Friendly]

[@doctorbill37]

Clear presentation showing how to put together all of the pieces -well done.

[@T4m4g0tchi]

I’m reaching out for help with an offset in how my scene is represented between two headsets (Quest2/Quest3). Despite checking the MRUK documentation, the block colocation setup, and digging into the SSA level, I’m seeing discrepancies in the positions of various objects between the different headsets. I’ve been going in circles between all these different docs, so if anyone has a lead or suggestion, I’d really appreciate it!

[@mukheemuddin]

Amazing bro !!! I love the pace you are putting things and also in such a precise manner :) Lots of Love and Support

[@immersiveinsiders]

Thanks a lot :D Happy to hear that our video helped you :)

YESSSS. I’ve been looking for more MR dev channels! Thank you SO much!

[@hita.s3281]

Thank you so much, users should be on the same network right?

[@AaronAsherRandall]

This is awesome man! I love the speed as well, this is perfect for me who works in Unity every day! Dumb question, but will this setup work with the new Meta Quest just announced for $299?

[@immersiveinsiders]

Yes it will :)

[@tufanaydin6340]

Thank you very much for this simple explanation. I hope we can hear more quality with new microphone.

[@TestlaGogle]

Hi, thanks for your tutorial but I followed your steps in October to install multiplayer packages (from 1:57) and failed. Could you please teach me to install the update Photon v2.0.3?

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@TestlaGogle he have a base project setup with Fusion. Hope this works github.com/immersive-insiders/Muliplayer_Fusion_VR.git

[@ricardojaviergarnicapena6749]

Thank you, amazing video. One question, This funcionality (multiplayer) only works for MixedReality or alos for VirtualReality? I just have a Quest 2 and a Quest 3. Thanks again

[@jalals9365]

Thanks for the video. Do you have any idea why the second avatar is not spawing exactly onto the real player in MR?

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@jalals9365 it’s spawning but it’s not spawning on the player?

[@jalals9365]

@@immersiveinsiders Right. There is a significant gap between the avatar and the second player's real body. Does it have something to do with the colocation and shared anchor? I mean the settings required in the dashboard (user app, user profile, ...)

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@jalals9365 yes it’s a problem with collocations. Many developers are facing issue. We are trying to find a way around it.

[@SweetDreamJennie]

Thanks for the video! can you add the link you said about how to do the colocation?

[@anthonyhuynh2863]

I am trying to make an enemy "choose" between attacking Player 1 or 2. I believe I need to add the Players to a list. What variable / function should I reference?

[@anthonyhuynh2863]

Is there a video you can recommend, when holding the lightsaber, I can press the button to activate / deactivate the lightsaber blade?

[@immersiveinsiders]

You see how to map controller buttons here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ravNf4iOgLmYnKssi=Ts2QRih9niPqNNET However you need to write your own code to activate or deactivate the sabre

[@inyalk3149]

Thank you for this amazing video, followed this when I try publish the test user app its asking for Organization verification, is it compulsory to verify?

[@mtekinc9356]

Thanks... It would be great if this laser also cut any cube

[@AlessioMenegazzi]

Great tutorial thank you so much! Does the app still work without Meta's avatars? I have a mixed reality project to do so I don't need them. Thanks if you can answer me!

[@immersiveinsiders]

Yes! We added the avatars as just an additional feature.

[@dharshinir6237]

Hello, how do i setup voice interaction. Will the voice interaction work in this ?

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@dharshinir6237 yes! You can use Meta’s Voice SDK for voice commands.

[@rex_xzec]

Is there any way to make the network objects viewable in real time? For example if the material changes on a gameobject can the connected players see it in real time?

[@immersiveinsiders]

It's possible, checkout this document: doc.photonengine.com/fusion/current/tutorials/shared-mode-basics/4-network-properties

[@AmanChaudhary-tb7ly]

this is local MR multiplayer ?

[@immersiveinsiders]

The project is currently setup for co-presences I.e other people far away in your room. However this same app can be converted into Local MR with some additional steps.

[@AmanChaudhary-tb7ly]

​@@immersiveinsiders we are currently facing some issues with Local MR. Even the Meta side has acknowledged these problems. Can you help us resolve the syncing issue with the grabbing function? In Local MR, I am experiencing difficulties with position synchronization when grabbing objects. Specifically, when the first player grabs a cube, the second player sees the grab, but it is not synchronized with the first player's hand."

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@AmanChaudhary-tb7ly can you share some screenshots on our discord server so that I can understand better? Not sure what you mean by the hands are not synced.

[@filipemaliska]

@@immersiveinsiders Nice! Can you tell what additional steps are?

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@filipemaliskahere’s a video on that kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4OqqHWMp7dnjassi=vVT3Vc5hhhJ9q_mW

[@AmanChaudhary-tb7ly]

Could you generate a random ID and use it to connect the client with the host who shares the same ID?

[@immersiveinsiders]

Yes it’s possible for that you need to use Client/Host networking. You if are an intermediate developer you can easily implement it by modifying the existing script or by writing your own.

[@AmanChaudhary-tb7ly]

@@immersiveinsiders its working but one problem faced by both players is the same position instantiates can you help

[@immersiveinsiders]

@@AmanChaudhary-tb7ly to fix this you need to write a script to assign different spots to different users. The ideal way would be to have a few shared spatial anchors around the origin. Have a networked script that will keep a track of spots that are filled.

[@RMWaqas21]

Is there any option available to instantiate my own avatar instead of random meta avatar?

[@immersiveinsiders]

Yes, check out this video:kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4OqqHWMp7dnjas At about 1: 16 I show how you can request to use the user's avatar.

[@RMWaqas21]

@@immersiveinsiders Thank you so much 😍

[@apoorvapise7881]

Awesome Tutorial!! Thanks a lot for this! My question: how can I use a custom avatar (not a Meta Avatar) in this setup?

[@immersiveinsiders]

To be honest, it's not that easy to add a non-Meta Avatar, because 1st you'll have to rig it, and then send the body position across the network to other clients. However, you can refer to our video on Movemnt SDK and Photon Multiplayer and combine both the concepts.

[@hamzzashaffi]

Keep it up! :)

[@zesori]

This video was great and it works perfectly on my device. I can't get it to work with the simulator though. It has problems with the passthrough layer and the avatar which makes sense as the editor probably can't get them from anywhere. Do I have to somehow disable them or configure them differently for it to work with the Meta Simulator?

[@immersiveinsiders]

What do you mean you can’t get it to work on the simulator? Nope you don’t need to change any settings.

[@zesori]

​@@immersiveinsiders Hm on the Simulator I get the error "Passthrough layer is not configured for surface projected passthrough". My Avatar works now though after logging in with a test user in the editor.

[@zesori]

PS: I noticed that you never used the Surface Projected Passthrough and I don't need it either. I don't even know when I got the building block in there. When I remove it, everything works fine, thank you!

[@GeetikaMittal-q2w]

Hi.. i am creating a MR game and with multiplayer and i want to test it with a friend. i want to know how will it work? do i have to create a room and a code first and then ask him to join it by sending an apk file?

[@immersiveinsiders]

You need to send the apk file, then you send the room code.

[@SarpKaya-p3m]

Can we use this app for 2 devices from different networks? And if yes how can I share the project?

[@immersiveinsiders]

Yes we can, in the photon setting you need to set the a region and that it how other player will join the same session. The more advanced version of it would be for you to create a lobby and add room codes.

[@mferna23]

Im a developer and to be honest ive done this all before and im jus trying to set it up as a new project to make sure my skills are up to date. All my photon and meta settings are set up but my avatar isnt displaying, and im seeing 2 right controllers. This is a fresh build becuz i was seeing 2 right controllers previously. Testing on quest 3 and my app is in alpha on app lab so i need to fix this lol...

[@duirdesign]

Did you ever solve this problem? Similar issue myself where my avatar is not displaying!

[@tokyohthegoat]

@@duirdesign no, but they did kill the old avatar SDK not to long ago. There's all new avatars and a whole new system, so my guess is avatar SDK 2 is dead and 3.0 is somewhere around the corner. Been mainly developing in Meta Horizon ATM so I'm not to sure.
