Hi everyone.
I don’t know if this is the right section for this post, so if I’m wrong, please, let me know.
I’m working for a company that makes AR apps. We bought the Prime31 and Vuforia plugins because we think that their functionalities and technologies are the best that you can use in their field of actions.
We have used this techonlogies since a long time now, but due to some recent changes and updates of both of the plugins, it seems that is not possible anymore to let both of the plugins work on Android because of an issue about the way to override the main Unity activity.
We made various posts on both the forums to ask for a possible solution, but we have just received “We are not going to change something that is not working because of other people work” and sometimes just silences.
To be honest we also tried to use other plugins and also write my own library to try to work around this issue.
Someone else also suggested us to write down our own Android library to change the Prime31 and Vuforia behaviours on Android so that they can coexist like they already do in iOS.
In less words we were not without doing anything to solve the problem by ourselves, but, we have to admit that we don’t have the competences to fix this issue. This is a big problem, because we are now damaged economically because of this issue.
I really don’t know if this is just our problem or is a common thing for someone else of you too… but we have the intention to write an email to both Prime31 and Vuforia to try to explain better the situation, asking them that they should try to work together to offer us, us as customers, people who paid to use their technologies, a solution to this issue that now for us has became a very big problem.
What we are asking you, before to do that, is that if you are living the same situation, please, answer to this post to let us know if you want to join us this time. That is because if we are more than just one to ask them, they would probably start considering the fact to do something.
Or better, if you find a solution to this issue and you want to share your knowledge, or to propose to us a different way, this would be very much appreciated.
Thank you very much for your reply to this post.
Sincerely
Eugenio
