Yes please show us how to do meta avatars with multiplayer ! 😁

[AndytheStrangemusic]

Thanks for putting this out. An updated video on using the Meta Avatar SDK to create multiplayer experiences would be great!

[desart]

Meta avatars + multiplayer + hand interaction + hand pose = prefect metaverso

[luiginicastro]

Would love Meta avatars with multiplayer (Normcore would be awesome! But I know the older one is Photon based)

[piratemin_vr]

This is awesome, thank you! I'd love to learn how to sync the avatars over photon! Oh wait you just mentioned it at the end of the video, ha ha. Looking forward to it man, keep up the good work!

[gaboandres]

i've been struggling with the use of the avatars on pc and now you are just telling me that all this time I just needed a different app ID for PC?? wow you are actually my savior if this works! I'll test it and let you know if it works for me :D

EDIT: It didn't work for me at first but then I realize that you have to add the oculus app ID in another tab on Oculus>Avatars>Edit Settings, and there is another two slots where you have to paste your App ID. I don't know why there is this "avatars" tab for me and not for valem but I hope this help for someone with the same problem!

[PhilipHerlitz]

Another great video. I was reading through the documentation, and it was just overwhelming. But your 10 minute video was short and concise. Thank you!

[mattlacerais]

Yes! Meta avatars with the new built in Unity multiplayer networking would be amazing!

[richardronayne]

Great video as usual Valem!

Two quick questions...

1) Since the Oculus Intergration seems to be updating every few weeks, is there any chance you could you put the version in the description?

2) I'm really keen to use raycasting teleport with hand gestures. Could you consider making a tutorial on how to ray-cast teleport while using a "finger-gun" hand gesture? I'm having a hard time figuring out how to aim and trigger teleportation via hand pose recognition rather than via controllers. I think teleporting by pointing 👉 would be awesome!

[mohammadalikhadem]

Great video! thank you very much!
Also learning about how to use the Colocation fucntion for Mixed Reality Experiences would be very helpful.

[iangriggs]

Add my vote for a new multiplayer + meta avatar video (series 😉).

[monquarter]

I would love to see a networked/multiplayer tutorial with hand interactions

[carrotman]

Another great vr tutorial :)
Using it with your vr multiplayer series is a great idea
I tried to follow that series recently and hit a road block so I'd be interested to know if that was out of date or if it's just me 😅
Also expanding this tutorial, it'd be helpful knowing how to dress the avatar in different clothing (eg. armour for rpgs) and adding a pair of legs.

[gaboandres]

I will be waiting for the tutorial on how to blend the meta avatars SDK with the interaction SDK because I don't think the way i did it is the best 😅

[Slaughterfr]

ca marche impeccable, merci beaucoup Valem ;)

[briammora]

Great tutorial Valem! Do you know if Meta Avatars are URP compatible?

[karolledzinski]

Next would be adding interactions to those hand tracking hands.

[osmanDemir]

Thank you Valem.
I watched and implemented all the videos in the Interaction SDK series:
1- I failed to activate Hand 2.0. When I update to V39 or even V40 a lot of things break like object interactions and canvas interactions. So I'm going with the V38. Am I doing it right?

2- We will be very happy that you will start a multiplayer series where we can do all the interactions with the avatars.

3- By the way, your channel is the first channel I recommend to my friends who see me working with VR around me.

4- We are looking forward to your new videos.

Hi Valem can i get any reference or tutorial that How to change/use custom hand animations for Meta avatar

[upfront]

Please make a video of networking meta avatars with normcore
