Unable to find AudioPluginMsHRTF & AudioPluginOculusSpatializer

Hi,

I'm using Unity 5.5 and Android 6.0.1. When starting my game on the phone, I get two error messages:
- E Unity : Unable to find AudioPluginMsHRTF
- E Unity : Unable to find AudioPluginOculusSpatializer

If set the spatializer plugin to 'None' in the audio manager. I can't find any other reference to a spatializer in the project. Does anyone know have an idea how to resolve this issue?

Thanks,
Alex

 

Hey there,

I'm encountering the same problem. I hoped that it might have been fixed with 5.5p3 (they mention the spatializer in the release notes: https://unity3d.com/unity/qa/patch-releases/5.5.0p3), but sadly the patch didn't fix the problem.

I'm trying to build for the OnePlus One (Android 6.0.1), didn't test any other device so far. Interestingly enough, I don't have the problem when creating a new project from scratch, I can't really tell where the problem is coming from. Did you have any luck fixing the problem?

 

Unfortunately, I still have the issue. Which plugins are you using?

 

Hi again,

I actually was wrong with my statement. Even with a simple new project I get this error (also with 5.5.0p3). I first thought that this error would be the reason that my game just quit, but apparently it does not really create any problems.

Edit: I just filed a bug report for it

 

I have the exact same issue with 5.5.0f3. No idea how to solve it. Any idea guys?

 

Probably everybody with Unity 5.5 has this bug, as it even occurs when creating a brand new project. From what I found out it does noct break anything. If your app does not work correctly it is because of something else I would guess.

 

Thanks for your reply. It is actually a new project I created with Unity 5.5. Are you aware of any workaround? Should I try upgrading to 5.6 maybe?

 

I filed the errors already as an issue, I guess they would have informed me if it is already fixed in 5.6. Anyways, why do you care so much? It does not affect anything as from what I noticed. Or are you making a cardboard game and spatial audio is broken?

 

Sorry, I realize my message was not clear. When I start the project on Gear VR, I get a black screen. The game seems to just crash. Nothing else happens. And I don't mind about spatialize audio at that point. I'm just trying to figure out why I get a black screen. I tried everything I could, and I get the same result with an empty (basic) project. I developed other vr projects with 5.4 that run just fine.

Tomorrow I'll try to downgrade my project for Unity 5.4 and see what happens.

Edit: here is my logcat

Ah I see, I didn't do any VR tests so far.... But from your log, what about this line:
The referenced script on this Behaviour (Game Object 'LoaderImage') is missing!

Maybe take a closer look at that one. I would not be suprised if the black screen is caused by something else.

 

Wow I didn't see that one. But I have no idea what this "LoaderImage" GameObject is though. It's definitely not one of mine.

But it's definitely a good clue. I'll try to find out tomorrow after a good night of sleep!

Thank you so much Johannski.

 

You're welcome! Sleep well

 

So, I finally had some time to try my game with Unity 5.6, and it works perfectly well. So it is definitely a Unity 5.5 critical bug. I'm just gonna skip it then!

 

Oh! Very interesting. I did google the line I pointed out and due to the fact that I didn't find any other thread with the name "ImageLoader" I thought that it probably was not directly unity related.

Thanks a lot for sharing that, hopefully all others that have the problem can upgrade to 5.6 as well.

 

You're welcome! That "ImageLoader" error is not anymore in my logcat with Unity 5.6. It was probably the reason of the crash. I thought it was that AudioPluginOculusSpatializer thing but it wasn't (because it's still there and the game now runs fine). Thank you for pointing it out!

 

really 5.6 ?
5.6 is in beta. Should I choose it just to get rid of this issue ?

 

Unfortunately, that was the only option for me.

 

I'm getting this problem on a project that used to build fine but now complains about the two audio things, even though it is a standard 3D project and not a VR project. Has really got me stuck for builds and even 5.5.2 hasn't fixed it.

 

Actually found that I had another problem that was causing my problem, and this error message just distracted me from the real issue. Really annoying that this message was even there.

 

@Nodrap I had the exact same situation. That error distracted me from finding the solution. After switching to 5.6, my app was running fine but the error message was still there.
