Unity Editor not loading in Oculus Rift Headset

I'm using Unity 2019.1.6f1 but somehow the application is not loading after pressing play in Unity's Editor window, in the headset you can see a loading screen (Oculus Rift) but it get's stuck there. There are also no error in my console. Any idea how can I troubleshoot this issue?



All the XR settings and Project settings seem to be right.

Any idea? Thanks

 

Same issue here. Unity Version: 2019.2.11f1. This is a huge blocker in development. Any ideas on how to fix the issue would be appreciated!

 

@ArabianArtStudios I updated the Oculus Rift SDK to the latest version and the issue was gone.

 

@Leoniciux It still doesn't work for me, I still have the Unity Version: 2019.2.11f1, could you share the sdk url to make sure if I am installing the correct one?

 

Facing same issue in unity 2019.2.15f ........ damn

 

im getting this a lot on unity 2018 LTS aswell...

 

just updated and started getting this as well.

Any fixes?

 

So i made it work on 2019.2.15f

Steps i followed -

1. New project
2. Enable VR support and add oculus only
3. Restart Unity
4. Hit play and wait for Oculus app start in the windows
5. Exit playmode and hit play again .... and wear ur headset ...voila

If want it to work in Android mode(For oculus quest) -

1 to 5 steps
6. Switch to Android and enable VR support
7. Hit play

 

same problem... above steps no worky

 

I also have the same issue and none of the above are working.

 

facing same issues after upgrading to unity 2019.4.3f1 when I press play, it plays fine on the desktop, but the rift headset just shows the oculus waiting room. tried the steps above and not working

 

I made a build file which worked properly for months. But now it got stuck at infinite loading in oculus while i am still able to see the input of headset being received by the unity app.

 

Hi guys! The problem was solved in the following way: 1) in build settings->player setting->player - >Virtual Reality Supported-ticked the Virtual Reality SDK;
2) delete Oculus and the rest;
3) Install Oculus again;
4) Launch PlayMode, wait for the project to start in Windows;
5) Exit PlayMode;
6) Launch the project and dive into VR.
Everything works!
Then you can download the Oculus SDK and do not change anything, everything will work.

 

I had this problem too, and after a lot of searching finally figured it out. Whilst I had done the settings in green below, I hadn't noticed the platform tabs in the same window (orange). As soon as I turned them on, it sprang into life.

 

I've been looking for this everywhere. THANK YOU VERY MUCH THIS WORKED PERFECTLY!!!!

 

So if it helps anyone this is how i solved it ( I updated an older project to new oculus XR):

- close unity
- delete oculus asset in assets. After this search for files starting with OVR or oculus in the assets folder - in my case there were still several config and meta files in resources or wherever. Delete these as well. I suspect these might be causing problems for a lot of people as well.
- start unity
- delete every xr package from xr package manager
- re-install xr package manager
- go to xr plugins and choose oculus
- now finally install oculus integration.

After the above steps it works fine for me

 

Up ! I have tested all of the fix given but none of them work for me..
I also tried to:
- Re-install both oculus and unity versions
- Delete the project library folder and the XRPackageSettings/XRSettings in ProjectSettings and relaunch unity
No luck either
Even by creating a new project and following the "Getting started" tutorials: https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/unity/unity-conf-settings/#enable-vr-support and https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/configuring-project-for-xr.html, by creating an empty scene with just a rig, it does not work.
- I am using an oculus rift (I also tested with an oculus quest, same issue)
- I have tested two unity versions: 2019.4.20 et 2020.2.6

Does anyone has any idea? Anyone in the same position as me right now?


UPDATE: Problem resolved by updating windows

 

Try this, it worked for me!
If you have another(different one that your having the problem with) unity project with Oculus as its XR Plug-in open it and press play.
If you don't have another VR unity project make one just for the fix, open it and press play.
After doing the above, open the project your having the problem with, press play. Should be fixed.

Reason for the problem. Unity knows it has closed the last play session. Oculus does not, and still tries to close it, but it can't close because it's waiting for unitys ok to do so. But unity is busy trying to play the app that oculus says is open already. Then they argue like 2 kids and 1 candy.

Reason this works. When you open and play a new app on unity. The default loading says.
Hey Oculus if you have any unity apps currently playing, stop that, and play this one.
If no unity apps are currently playing? Play this one.
So oculus now closes the current glitched app. and loads the new one.

Hope this helps, if not good luck finding your answer.

 

Going to post an unpopular opinion, stop using depracated headsets without continued support. I know this costs alot of money that people might not have but whilst there is workarounds, they will most likely be removed in the future. The problem is at both ends like @xOSSxKratos says, both Unity and Oculus software is fighting over what happens, and it's not going to be fixed for those old headsets as they no longer have support.

 

I had OVRPlugin set to use Open XR. After changing it to use the package manager-provided OVR it was fixed.
