Is anyone having success with Liv and Andy's experimental builds?

ZZandy Is anyone having success with Liv and Andy's experimental builds?

andybak•11/17/21, 5:07 PM

Hmmmm. I've never used Liv with Open Brush so it's not something I would have tested. Is it broken? Is it broken in other experimental builds?

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:08 PM

hey @andybak I have tried it before with liv (not your experimentals) and it worked. I need to start using Liv more and tried it but no luck.

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:09 PM

which builds are broken? Rosie and I use OB + LIV fairly often with no issues

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:11 PM

Not sure if its broken Mikesy because of his builds but cant get them to work with them. I use Andy's build created on 10/10?

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:11 PM

Standalone Windows Oculus

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:12 PM

I can give it a test just to see if i can figure it out

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:12 PM

sweet thanks so much

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:12 PM

perhaps even from the editor

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:12 PM

Just as we're about to merge some big things, would be good to make sure everything is still working as intended

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:12 PM

cant wait to see

andybak•11/17/21, 5:14 PM

Which build? i.e. which feature are you using?

andybak•11/17/21, 5:15 PM

Send me the download link

andybak•11/17/21, 5:15 PM

(i've got about 6 different builds on the go at the moment)

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:15 PM

no worries.... sending a dm

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:29 PM

sorry its the reg open brush one. Most recent. Sorry Andy.

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:30 PM

0.4.0?

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:32 PM

Where can I find this? I just download the file and slap it on my taskbar lol

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:33 PM

when it's running, look at the back of your brush hand, it should have a little panel that says 'Open Brush v0.x.x'

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:33 PM

ok will check now

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:38 PM

0.1.0.86

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:39 PM

oh damn, that's very out of date haha, yeah i think that predate our liv support!

mikesky•11/17/21, 5:39 PM

I'd suggest grabbing the steam version for auto updates

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:42 PM

Lol. Ok that’ll do it. Sorry mikesky

Mmikesky oh damn, that's very out of date haha, yeah i think that predate our liv support...

mikeage•11/17/21, 5:42 PM

not.. necessarily. It seems like someone (don't want to point fingers, but his name rhymes with bandyak) might not have all of the tags from the main openbrush repo, so when builds are made, it counts commits from the v0.1 tag only! Unfortunately, it can be a bit hard to map that to a git sha; it's in the build stamp, but we don't show the stamp on the panel (I guess it's too long -- but maybe we should change that)

Tell me how to fix my tainted behaviour, oh wise one.

mikeage•11/17/21, 5:45 PM

hmmm. I think doing a will do it (assuming

origin

origin

points to your fork). See if it says that it pushed a v0.2, v0.3, and v0.4 tags. But in any case, this still might be a bit confusing -- I should really make sure the version number is more visible for these builds. When I originally did the versioning, I didn't really consider people sharing builds that weren't from and

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 5:47 PM

Does the steam version have the experimental s and is there an updated version in oculus for pc as well or just steam?

andybak•11/17/21, 5:55 PM

the experimental what? brushes?

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 6:23 PM

yes

andybak•11/17/21, 6:42 PM

they are supported in any experimental build. either grab it from itch.io: https://openbrush.itch.io/openbrush

andybak•11/17/21, 6:44 PM

or you can choose it in the Properties dialog in Steam:

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 8:32 PM

Thanks Andy

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 8:52 PM

Do you mind if I pin that so I don’t forget it?

Go for it

ZandyOP•11/17/21, 10:23 PM

thank you

Hello everyone, sorry for the newbie question. I've pulled the latest unity-2020 branch, I'm trying to build the project using the following configuration and upload it to oculus quest 2 device. But I'm getting black screen after the preloader. Could someone help me please, what am I missing?

mikesky•11/19/21, 1:04 PM

That branch (and unityxr) aren’t ready for production yet and are actively being worked on, that’s why it isn’t working for you

mikesky•11/19/21, 1:04 PM

Good on you for getting stuck in though

nike61•11/19/21, 1:05 PM

Ok, thanks. I was getting the same black screen in the master branch, that's why I've decided to try another branch. Let me try again the master branch though

nike61•11/19/21, 1:05 PM

I mean "main" branch

Nnike61 Ok, thanks. I was getting the same black screen in the master branch, that's why...

You can do a github cloud build. That works for me (takes a bit longer)

nike61•11/19/21, 1:14 PM

Thanks, but I want to build it on my local machine in order to be able to change something in code. I'm currently studying different existing libraries for oculus. This is one of libraries I want to study and maybe integrate somehow in my project

nike61•11/19/21, 1:17 PM

Btw, is there any other exitsting games or projects that is built on top of open brush?

andybak•11/19/21, 1:18 PM

Yes - the workflow is: 1. fork our repo 2. Turn on Github actions on your fork 3. Push a change with "[CI BUILD]" in the commit message. Then Github automatically does a build for every platform

andybak•11/19/21, 1:19 PM

Well there's all the stuff mentioned in the docs: https://docs.openbrush.app/alternate-and-experimental-builds/

Pre-release, Alternate, and Experimental Builds

andybak•11/19/21, 1:19 PM

But there's probably more. I always keep an eye on the Github network graph: https://github.com/icosa-gallery/open-brush/network

But that doesn't catch stuff that isn't public, isn't a direct fork - or stuff on Gitlab etc.
