VR / OCULUS FOR INFRAWORKS

Mpcconsultora — Wed, 18 Sep 2019 20:13:26 GMT

Hello, I am contemplating the possibility of acquiring a virtual reality viewer, but first I wanted to advise which is the optimal or compatible Oculus model for Infraworks 2020. Is a plugin necessary? What is the procedure for its operation?

No, you don't need any additional plugins. All you need to have is the Oculus app installed and open while running InfraWorks. One thing to note is that the hand controllers do not work within InfraWorks; you have to navigate with keyboard shortcuts. I've used both the the Rift and Rift S models and had no compatibility issues. It's pretty much plug-and-play.

Hi zachri:

I need to install the plugin "VR-INSIDE" to be able to export the model to Oculus, but I can't download it from the app store, could you please help me with it. Thank you.

Sorry, I’m not familiar with the plugin you are describing. Also, what do you mean by “export the model to Oculus”? The original post was about using a VR headset within InfraWorks - no export necessary.
