Good morning all! One really important question please (9 hours of trying!) –

How can I prevent the camera in VR mode to follow the heads up/down movement? Right now, when I look in any direction, I move in that direction – but if I look up or down and hold the thumbstick, I move up or down while moving forward. How can I lock the camera to the X/Y plane and not move up and down in Z?

This answer will make my weekend if someone can give me a pointer!

Thanks

Hi,
you need to move camera in absolute coordinates (not local) along its horizontal direction. Try this:

Thank you so much for your help. I got it working on Sunday night – I set the camera straight in Blender and made the following puzzle. Now I am going to make a function that rotates the camera by 20 degrees every time we press a button. For that, I have to figure out how to get an event for A or B button on the right hand Quest controller. Any ideas would help me very much.

Verge 3D is the best and you guys are awesome!!!

OK have it working with one controller, going to get some batteries now and try to modify it so that the left thumbstick is rotation while right thumbstick is position.
