I’m interested if there has been much experience yet with utilizing a Convai character in MR in Unity on the quest 2 and/or 3. I have a nicely functioning character and I’d like to figure out the simplest path to interacting with him in MR on a quest 3 as a demo.

We’ve started doing this for Metahuman in Unreal Engine but it’s a tedious process so far.

Unity is generally more useful in the XR environment.

When I start a new unity project, which of the core templates should I select to begin? I chose the MR template, but it seems older. not sure if you have had success with a different one? <@1023671043287699568>

Also, Can you link to the “Meta Quest SDK” That you have had success with? The one I’m trying is Meta XR All-in-One SDK | Integration | Unity Asset Store

Use the Meta XR All-in-One SDK from Oculus on your next project. Find this integration tool & more on the Unity Asset Store.

It’s not important. You can use whatever you want.

I’m stuck at Add NPCManager and GRPCApi components to your Meta Quest Player. Is there more detailed instrucitons for this step?
Reply by k3kalinix | 2024-08-23 18:25:01
