    I will try https://www.vrdesktop.net/ as soon as I free up some time for this.
    If I could work in VR on our scenes, without any cables and such, that would be a game changer!

    Agreed. I remember trying a build someone made in our group on Oculus Quest, but it was a standalone build and not tethered to the Unity Editor running on a PC.

    Do you know if it works on Quest, I am trying something like this out for a project on a MFA thesis.

    Tethering works but Universal Pipeline appears to have issues with anything made in shadergraph.

    Sure, just make sure you install the optional android components and use the XR Manager from package manager to set up the correct stuff you need. Finally you must remove Vulkan from the list of rendererers for now and choose OpenGL.

    As of version 0.3 the docs should be updated: the runtime settings can be found under "Player Settings > EditorXR" instead of the preferences.

    I'd like to build the EditorXR in a very basic scene for the Oculus Quest.

    What do you mean by optional android components? On the recommended Unity version 2018.4.x I can not see possibility to install optional android components or XR management. (also not mentioned on EditorXR Google doc)

    If we could describe the steps here, I think lots of people would benefit from it. (Quest sold out after Xmas 2019)

    Thanks. I removed the mention of "preferences" in the docs.

    I think what @hippocoder means is that you would install the necessary components in order to make an Android build -- i.e what you would normally do in order to build to the Quest (e.g. install Android as a platform in Unity, installing the Android SDK/NDK, etc.)

    Apologies for not being able to work through this issue with you all yet. Our focus is on getting out the next release of EditorXR, which will be a bona fide package! After that is complete I could foresee getting support for the Quest working.

    Another thing to try -- are you making sure to use the Oculus Android plugin and not the new Oculus XR Plugin?
