Question Half fps in build

Hello, i get around 70fps in editor and around 35fps in build, i ran the profiler and i get this, which doesn't clarify me anything about why in editor has double fps

 

Check OVRMetrics, probably GPU is at 100%

 

But anyways why in editor doubles fps then?

 

In Editor profiler shows me this, instead PostLateUpdate make it lags it is FrameEvents.XRBeginFrame and RenderingPipelineManager.DoRender, but requiring much less ms

 

I'm assuming the 72 ish fps you see in Editor is because that's your actual target rate. On device, when you miss that target, your frame rate is capped at 36 (half) which makes sense from an interpolation/extrapolation point of view.

 

I cannot set a target frame rate with VR, it picks the VR SDK picks it, and anyways why makes sense that frame rate is capped at half in build? don't understand what you mean bout interpolation/extrapolation, and how could i solve this? It should miss the target in editor or in build, what is the difference?

 

A PC is faster than a android device/quest.
If you test in editor, you are running the game on PCVR, not on the quest natively.
Vsync will set the fps to a value which is a halve of the full fps(72), which is 36, hence that FPS.
In order to fix it, you need to optimize the performance of your game

 

So i need to set my fps always higher than the hz the device has? or fps will be halved?

 

I see i get fps around 71.8, is like 72hz which is what oculus quest 2 hz has, i tried to remove all geometry and gives me the same fps, so if in editor i have the required 72 fps why in build halves fps?

 

I am using quest link, i am not running just on quest, i am using PC resources

 

If performance cannot be achieved it will halve.

Ah, I thought you were in standalone android builds. If it happens on windows build, make sure oculus app, unity, oculus xr plugin, xr management, and (if used) oculus integration are all updated.

And make sure you use the same quality tier in-editor as in builds

 

I don't use oculus XR and oculus integration, i use open XR, i use quest 2 but i want to be compatible with other devices too. Yes, i set the quality level in script to make sure i use the same quality level, but still build has half fps
I use Unity 2021.3 LTS, i cannot update it. XR plugin management is updated

 

Sometimes i get around 72 fps in build at start but always end falling to half fps after some seconds, don't know why drops and why sometimes starts in 72fps and other times not

 

I'd say check the frame debugger and GPU profiler to see where gpu performance goes
