Turn your ideas into reality. Whether you’re developing a virtual reality game, social experience, entertainment or education app, you can easily develop across the entire Oculus platform with your favorite game engine or with our native SDKs. Dec 17, 2017 - Unity Technologies has announced that the Unity development engine. The ways that Unity developers can unleash their creativity on macOS.
Now I had a 3d scene.But my end goal was to walk in my own modeled street in virtual reality though. How would I do that? First, I needed some hardware. Hardware VR doesn't work with MacBook's yet as their GPU isn't powerful enough.
So I had to get a PC. I searched around a bit and found, a great 3d designer, and copied and made a few adjustments: I went for the GTX 1080 as that's the fastest GPU you can get now. I chose the because I wanted to travel with it (as carry-on), apparently I could've gone smaller but it was okay: The case is 23 cm x 37.5 cm x 39.5 cm. The for Qatar Airways (to give an example) is 25 cm x 37 cm x 50 cm.
So just 0.5cm too big but that can be considered a margin of error so it's probably okay. There's VR laptops now but they are prone to overheat and break. Don't buy them. I also got a Dell 24' dislay. Not too big, and this could actually fit in my rolling suitcase. Why try be mobile with AN ENTIRE VR SET UP? Well, I had this epic plan to go live on a beach in Bali at the end of 2016 and learn to surf in the day and learn VR dev at night.
I know, ridiculous. I chose the HTC Vive (made in co-op with Valve and Steam) as it seems like the best choice of headset now.
It has room scale VR by default, which means you can walk around freely in your room. Oculus just added it too (with Touch) but it's lagging behind a lot in features. They're quickly catching up though (see ). I also like that the Vive is built around a future open source SteamVR framework, which means other headsets will be able to use the technology.
After a few weeks I got my setup in the mail: And the neighborhood cat used the PC box as her new home ^^ Hardware Update 2017-02-22: It's been 4 months and there's actually pretty good VR-ready laptops available now, primarily by MSI and Alienware. If you're moving around, I suggest getting those because traveling with a 12kg rig was terrible! Emirates broke my $300 Dell monitor I checked in in my suitcase (even as I insulated it).
Unity For Vr Chat
The PC still works but carrying it through customs (where they ask many funny questions) and all to the gate (there's no carts AFTER customs did you know that?) is intense. TL;DR get a VR laptop if you move a lot. Software Just like with, most of game development can now happen with just one tool:: I remember years ago being scared of even getting close to Unity as it seemed so complicated, but having mastered the basics of Cinema 4D, this seemed like a smooth ride. It feels, looks and acts a lot like Cinema 4D.
The difference is everyhting in Unity is primed for interactivity., although if you release your game I think you have to pay them a% of your revenue. There's also, which looks better and appears more photorealistic.but I feel Unity is more noob-friendly and more people use it, so you can find answers to questions you have easily.
Everything I write now I learnt by just Googling again and watching lots of YouTube tutorials. Let's start I started by making a new project and importing my entire scene from Cinema 4D into Unity as an asset: That instantly crashed Unity as I think the scene was too complex. So instead I made an empty project in Unity, quit Unity. Then I went into the project's Assets folder and put the C4D file there. Then I loaded the project and my scene was in the Library. Dragging it into the viewer, there it was! It didn't go perfect though.
I had to reskin ALL textures as they were missing.this seems to be a common problem as had the same issue. Also all light and physics (e.g. Gravity) was gone. Making a project VR-ready To make a Unity project VR-ready for Vive, you need to go into the Unity Assets Store and download the SteamVR script: Drag the CameraRig and SteamVR object inside the SteamVR/Prefabs folder into your project and you instantly make it VR-ready.
The blue line is you room's boundaries and help you scale your scene relatively: Add some random objects and bam: Literally that's how easy it is. It even adds the Vive's controllers into your project. When you click Play in Unity, you put on your headset and it works! Or well.So I tried it with my scene but the scale was completely off. I was in a giant street about 100x off scale.
It took a few minutes to scale it down to 0.075x. I literally just measured with my controllers how big or small the scale should be and adjusted accordingly. But then it worked. And amazingly the scale was pretty consistent too even though I designed it in 3d from just that photo: Yay! From, to VR in just a few months.
Apart from the skins, the lights weren't properly imported either, so I had to rebuild them in Unity. That took a while. Adding interaction Now that I had a scene, how could I let the controllers touch and interact with stuff? Because by default you simply move through objects that remain static and can't interact with anything.
Well, you use the.
Anyone who uses a MacBook Pro or Mac Pro knows that these machines are perfectly capable for just about everything. Apple deserves a lot of credit for the world of ultra-thin and incredibly stylish laptops available on the market today, but those design decisions come with some clear performance limitations. There are plenty of Desktop PCs, and even a couple of laptops if you're brave, you can buy today that support VR headsets right out of the box. Unfortunately, Apple's logo doesn't exist on any of them. That's the bad news. The good news? It's an easy enough thing for Apple to fix, and chances are we'll see some of those fixes soon.
VR computers have one major requirement right now, and it's something your average small laptop just can't provide. A powerful GPU needs space to dissipate heat while generating all of those fancy graphics, which is why all of the 'VR' laptops you see right now are heavy, thick, and usually around 17-inches. Apple isn't going to deviate from their laptop design anytime soon, and the NVIDIA mobile series of GPUs has been replaced with Intel and AMD graphics for the last two generations. With Apple's focus on functionality for the masses, there's no reason to assume the next generation of Apple laptops will be VR-ready. It's possible the highest end 15-inch MacBook Pro, which currently offers a beefier GPU than the rest of the pack, will meet the minimum system requirements, but we'll have to wait and see. For better or worse, Apple users have a wait in front of them. The world of Apple desktop computers is a little different.
Apple's Mac Pro is a powerhouse of performance, but the individual GPUs used in this first generation weren't individually enough to power Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. Separately, the AMD FirePro D500s in the Mac Pro are less than half of what is needed to power these headsets. Together they still aren't quite enough, but a hardware refresh will certainly fix that. While there's no guarantee that Apple will stick with AMD for a refresh, it's clear with the recent announcement of the that AMD has what it takes to make sure Apple's Mac Pro refresh is VR-ready.
While it's a little rough that Apple fans are going to need a complete hardware upgrade to be VR-ready, it's not the only hurdle. Oculus and HTC have to support Mac OS separately, and for Oculus that could mean fragmenting their store into Mac and non-Mac VR games. We've already seen Valve do this with non-VR games on their Steam platform, so it's likely the Steam VR-powered HTC Vive would have a similar experience. It's unlikely Mac owners with VR hardware would be able to play all of the games current VR owners can play at least at first, so it's an uphill battle on multiple fronts for Apple fans. Users who have thoroughly embedded themselves in the Apple ecosystem but want to get in on VR right now are in a tough spot.
Running a separate Windows PC just for VR isn't a great option for a couple of reasons, and if you're waiting for Apple to do their own VR thing there's a good chance you'll be waiting a while. That's not to say Apple won't do VR at all, in fact on why that's not really a concern, but as is often the case with Apple this is all going to happen on Apple's terms. For better or worse, Apple users have a wait in front of them.
