CPU Issue

Ok so I posted this on the Occulus Forums, but since I narrowed it down to the CharacterController I think this is a better place:

https://developer.oculusvr.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=12234

 

Could you run it again in deep mode, as this might highlight the problem if it is in the C# code.

But the code is in the OVRPlayerController.Update() method it looks like the problem is in the Oculus Rift code base, or at least until you run it in deep mode then that's what it looks like.

 

If you read the post I made on the OR Forums, I already narrowed it down to the CharacterController.update function, inside the OVRPlayerCntroller. Problem is that this is compiled code.

 

Then you should contact Oculus and raise a bug report with them.

 

Its a thing in Unity:

http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/CharacterController.html
Component -> Physics -> CharacterController.

The Oculus SDK Uses this, but when the CharacterController.Move function gets called the CPU ms spikes up. The CharacterController class is a compiled Unity Class.

 

In that case raise a bug report with Unity -> Help - > Report Bug.

You could also check that you're using the latest version, and also check the patch updates to see if this is a know bug that has been fixed in a more recent patch.

 

But so this is definitely a bug and not something I can fix myself? Other then patching because I am indeed running on 4.3.1, but I dont wanna break the project by updating.

 

Possibly, you could share the project or ideally a simplified version of it that has the bug with another Oculus Rift Unity developer to get a second opinion.

You can upgrade to a separate folder or machine and copy the project to a new location or back it up before testing it in a newer version of Unity (just in case it breaks).

 

Im gonna see what happens if I replace OVRPlayerController with the normal 1st person. The both have the character controller so it should have the same problem.

To rule out OVR
