how can i make a start-up tutorial in my game. (how to controll the character)

i’m working on a vr project for people around 40 years old.
most people of this age don’t know how to use a controller.
what i want to make is a pre-game tutorial. when i start-up the game, people first have to follow the instructions like.
left thumbstick for walking. “push left thumbstick forward to walk.”
when they pushed the left tumbsitck forward, the next step comes on screen.
“press X or A to jump”
when they have done that. the game starts.

hope someone has experience with this. who can link me a tutorial or workflow on this.

Hi stefanwillems,

We came along with the exact same issue during ou VR game developments : how to teach a player the controls of a VR game while VR headset is put on (ie. player can’t look at his controller) ?

To solve this, we developped an Asset ‘Advanced Scrolling Panel’ that display panels text message with a nice and smooth animation. The benefit of this asset is the possibility to show custom icons, like buttons icon, in addition to a 3D model of your controller (GamePad, Keyboard or Mouse) with the desired key highlighted.
This is the best way for any VR player to understand the commands of the game.

Our asset is available in the AssetStore : Advanced Scrolling Panel

I advise you to take a look at the video presentation and the screen shots to get an idea the possibilities.
We will be glad to help. :slight_smile:
