Error on startup

about 8 years ago by Rafa

Hi guys,

I just installed NewtonVR on top of my SteamVR plugin for a VIVE project. I opened the demo scene and enabled SteamVR. However after doing this, I get this error:

"Assets/NewtonVR/SteamVR/NVRSteamVRInputDevice.cs(37,27): error CS0117: SteamVR_Utils' does not contain a definition for Event' "

I have commented out the four offending lines in the NVRInputDevice script to get it to compile, but I realized I don't have interactions through the controllers. Has anyone faced similar problems?

Thanks.

Hi Rafa. you'll need to upgrade to the most recent version of the streamvr plugin (1.2) or use an older version of NewtonVR

Hi Keith,

Thank you for the quick response! I checked the versioning of all plugins and they seem to be up to date. I'm currently using SteamVR 1.2.0 which was released just a couple of days ago and NVR v 1.18. Digging through the latest SteamVR change log I found this:

Replaced SteamVR_Utils.Event with SteamVR_Events. to avoid runtime memory allocation associated with use of params object[] args.

I imagine this is what's causing the issue.

oops sorry, i misread. You'll need to update NewtonVR.There's a new version on github that should work or you can wait for Unity to approve the new package (1.91)

I apologize, i just checked the github and saw there is a newer version of NVR than on the asset store. I'll go download that one.

Thank you for your help.
