Metachromium Support

Hey @jin, would like to follow up here on your experiments. How far did you get / where was it stuck?

Original Post on Discord

Launch Metachromium+ webxr demos, see head tracking in both steamvr and webxr, but no rendering overlay in VR headset. I pinged some devs who have used MC in the past and know about it’s inner workings, it’s open source so we might be able to hotfix it

OK, gave it a quick try, but there’s tons of errors in the Metachromium console for any of the simple apps… too bad

Haha

at this point I’m hoping to duct tape and captrue a few demos to demonstrate and hopefully appease other teams like meta / wolvic to enable similar features in their browser perhaps behind a flag or something so we can test AR in VR

needle tools authoring pipeline is a game changer for these small portable apps

we haven’t played with it extensively but since in its purest form Needle Engine projects are single-file GLBs you can experiment with it by simply loading multiple “app GLBs” as long as the host app has all the code needed for all child apps
