How to remove VR Split Screen when App starts. Unity 5.6

Hello everyone. I'm making an App in Unity that has VR/AR and non vr scenes. I can enable and disable the VR inside the app by using VRSettings.LoadDeviceByName however when the app starts before unity Splash screen app shows a split screen. PlayerSetting => Virtual Reality supported is checked of course when I uncheck it VR is not working as you can imagine. I'm calling VRSettings.LoadDeviceByName in an IEnumerator in the Awake Funtion. If you want I can upload the APK to a link.

Is there a way to remove the split screen at start?

 

Hi,
you have to choose None as the first device in the PlayerSettings Virtual Reality SDKs
Device None is equivalent to a non-VR application.
Built applications: Choosing startup device

But in my application it doesn't work - If I set None as first device and then I switch ingame to VR, I got a very strange result...

Cheers

 

No I haven't tried that let me try and get back to you thanks for the advice.

 

Hi crpt(). Thanks for your answer I finally figured out how to remove it thanks to you. As you mentioned I select the device type to none but then GoogleVR didn't work at all but later I added the Cardboard sdk as an second SDK and worked like a charm. Here see the picture on how I manage the Player settings.

Also this is the code I'm using to enable and disable the VR.

Hope this will help people.

Code (CSharp):

1. using System;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using System.Collections.Generic;
4. using UnityEngine;
5. using UnityEngine.VR;
6. public class VRSceneManager : MonoBehaviour {
7.  
8.     public static VRSceneManager instance;
9.  
10.     void Awake()
11.     {
12.         enableVr();
13.         //or
14.         //disableVR();
15.     }
16.  
17.     // Use this for initialization
18.     void Start()
19.     {
20.         instance = this;
21.     }
22.  
23.     IEnumerator LoadDevice(string newDevice, bool enable)
24.     {
25.         VRSettings.LoadDeviceByName(newDevice);
26.         yield return null;
27.         VRSettings.enabled = enable;
28.     }
29.  
30.     void enableVr()
31.     {
32.         StartCoroutine(LoadDevice("cardboard", true));
33.     }
34.  
35.     void disableVr()
36.     {
37.         StartCoroutine(LoadDevice("", false));
38.     }
39. }
