Introduction

VRTK.Unity.Core is a core collection of design patterns for Unity3d that can be beneficial in VR development.

VRTK.Unity.Core requires Unity3d 2018.3 (or above).

Getting Started

Using Unity3d 2018.3 (or above) create a new project using the 3D Template or open an existing project.
If the project supports Virtual Reality:
- Ensure Virtual Reality Supported is checked.
  - In Unity3d select Main Menu -> Edit -> Project Settings to open the Project Settings window.
  - Select Player from the left hand menu in the Project Settings window.
  - In the Player settings panel expand XR Settings.
  - In XR Settings ensure the Virtual Reality Supported option is checked.
- Ensure the appropriate support package is installed.
  - In Unity3d select Main Menu -> Window -> Package Manager to open the Packages window.
  - Find the appropriate support package in the left hand menu and click on it to select it (e.g. Oculus (Standalone) or OpenVR).
  - Click the Install button in the right hand pane of the Packages window for the selected support package.
  - The package will now install and be available for your supported hardware.
Ensure the project Scripting Runtime Version is set to .NET 4.x Equivalent.
- In Unity3d select Main Menu -> Edit -> Project Settings to open the Project Settings inspector.
- Select Player from the left hand menu in the Project Settings window.
- In the Player settings panel expand Other Settings.
- Ensure the Scripting Runtime Version is set to .NET 4.x Equivalent.

Navigate to the Assets/ directory of your project.
Git clone this repo into the Assets/ directory:
