I am trying to visualize an alembic file in VR with an Oculus Quest 2.
I have imported the Oculus Integrations and the Alembic packages, I’m running the ControllerTest patch on my VR set (and it works just fine) but once I add the Alembic file, it won’t see it.
When I import the Alembic Package i get this WARNING
Shader warning in ‘HDRenderPipeline/LitAlembic’: HDRenderPipeline/LitAlembic shader is not supported on this GPU (none of subshaders/fallbacks are suitable)
Although, I get no error on the console when I build and run, the Alembic file just doesn’t appear in the Oculus.
Any clue why this is happening?
Hi @scarscarin , the high-definition render pipeline only supports PC VR headsets. You’ll need to use the universal render pipeline or built-in render pipeline for the Quest 2.
Hi @mfuad
Thanks for your reply! I built the same environment on Universal Render Pipeline but when I import the alembic package I get the same warning. Does that mean I can’t display alembic files on oculus quest 2?
Hi @scarscarin , the Alembic format is not intended for mobile platforms as it is too expensive. As such, it is only supported on 64-bit desktop platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux). You can find those requirements in the Alembic package documentation.
