This quick guide shows the necessary configuration steps to bridge Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab into Virtual Reality for SteamVR, Oculus Rift, Oculus Quest 1 & 2, HTC Vive (Pro), HTC Focus, HP Reverb and Windows Mixed Reality HMDs. The guide also applies for bridging Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab for Powerwalls, 3D stereo projectors, CAVEs and DOMEs.
Guide to bridge Coin3D / CVExperimentsLabinto Virtual Reality:
- Start the moreViz Launcher
- Notice the moreViz-Tray icon (next to system time) and right-click it, select “moreViz Application Enabler”
- Click “Locate known Apps”. The more3D application enabler will search the standard program files folders for known Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab installations and add them to the list.
- If your Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab is installed to a non standard directory, please click “Add Application”, locate your “CVExperimentLab.exe” (or the according Coin3D based exe). The standard path is
X:\Program Files (x86)\CAMeL\CVExperimentLabR7.0\development\bin”.
- Make sure to select Win64 for a 64bit version of the application or Win32 for a 32bit version. Place the checkmark in the “enabled” column for Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab.
- Close the Application Enabler.
- The moreViz VR bridging function is now available for the Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab installation.
- Start the moreViz Client.
- Start Coin3D / CVExperimentsLab.
In case there are any issues with the visualization in the moreViz client, make sure to have followed these guides:
- Dual GPU & Quadro guide: For frozen or black image in client
- Fit the 3D into the host app’s viewport: in case geometry is missing in the moreViz client
Quick Tipps:
- For best performance with HMD, set the connection type to shared memory in the moreViz Launcher’s Connection Settings (only available for single-client setups on the local computer).
- For best visual impression, set AntiAliasing / Pixel Density to 2x (or higher) in the moreViz Launcher’s Client Settings
- SteamVR only: To operate the host application’s graphics user interface, check the SteamVR Desktops function of the SteamVR Dashboard.
The moreViz Software bridges over 35 applications to any SteamVR compatible Head Mounted Display and 3D Projectors. No Import/Export hassle, but a 1:1 VR plugin!
