Installed 1.9 and now it crashes on launch

@theredmage sorry for the delay in getting back to ya! We needed to pick at this edge condition a bit more, but a solution has (potentially) come to life We are suspecting that the desktop version of Arkio you have might have been installed through the Meta Quest desktop app, which is not updating…

The investigation continues!

Ah this helps a good deal and I think I know what the issue is, so put that Rift S back on the shelf. With the trial license it only supports 1 device running at a time. It is a floating license so you can assign it to multiple machines but it will boot you out if ther…

My work here is done then jk - this is great info, I’ll keep digging into this with the team. Are you using a headset connected to your pc? Or are you using Arkio just a 2d desktop app? There’s a hunch that the OpenXR error from your logs is pointing to an issue with oculus’ link mode.

@theredmage Could you also give me a sense of what your setup was? It would be good to know what devices you’re using (desktop, headset, etc) and how it’s running on your machine.

@theredmage could you do one thing, just for the sake of sanity. Could you uninstall and then reinstall Arkio? I’m wondering if there was a hiccup during the update process and some old libraries might not have been cleared properly.

@theredmage ohh good catch, I haven’t seen this issue on my machines but let me ping the team. Will report back asap!

@Ripe welcome welcome! Together we will battle the file formats, one .obj at a time

Hello and welcome to the community @Ripe ! Don’t forget to say hello

Jeez, that’s a tough file to jump into as a non architect. ‘.bimx’ and ‘.fbx’ are not supported in Arkio, but it’s somewhat close. If you can convert those to ‘.obj’ or ‘.gltf’ you will be good to go!

@Colin_Jones welcome to the community and thank you! . Okay, so this is a bit of a tough one to explain since there are a few ways to approach modeling topography.

Both ways would work. One thing that is somewhat hidden is the green table can be edited like a regular Arkio geometry, so you could u…

Last week’s event was great! It makes us so happy to see familiar faces and welcome new ones to the community. Shout out @Claudia for representing our the BAC and creator community ICYMI - Here is a quick recap

Tell me more! @Oom_Wat

We don’t share our .apk publicly. You could poke around Meta’s different SDKs to find out more.

I think it’s less of the headset “keeping up” and more around it securing enough data to start tracking. Once the first anchor is dropped the tracking system does a great job with updating.

Currently, we have internal logging for our development builds that we use to really pick apart what is happening behind the scenes.

Are you trying to import the room first before creating an anchor? This shouldn’t impact anchors, but it’s good know the steps you’re doing

This is really good to know. Because Arkio is a mixed reality app we don’t require a boundary space to be created, instead Meta will generate one at runtime …

hi @Oom_Wat and welcome! If you’re feeling social stop by and say hello!

Spatial anchors are a tricky lil fella, and it looks like you’ve tackled some of the troubleshooting as well. There are a few other things you can do that might help.

Walk around your space

This sounds a bit silly, but in or…

Something I wanted to draw attention to is a common issue that most people encounter with mixed reality, which is incorrect floor height/scale. If you feel like your model is much smaller than it should be or maybe the floor height isn’t aligning to where your standing, then you will want to follow …

Hi @Carolin_Schabbing I’m going to copy + the content I shared via email, just in case others have the same question. Here is a guide that goes over all of this info, but I’ll highlight the steps you’ll need: Step 1 - Setup your cloud group on the web before jumping into the headsets. If you have…

That’s a yes, fully encrypted from end to end! The only way anyone (including us) can access a cloud group is by sharing an invite code or the url

That does it explain it better! Having these three sites relate to each other is important, I’ll keep this in mind as we are updating these resources.

The second option is definitely more familiar to most! I’ve been using the first option a bit more now, mainly when I’m using mixed reality to model on site.

Hey there @vr_vagabond_pro, welcome to the community!

As someone who also has used Arkio to confirm design decisions with my partner, I can confirm this helps Would love to see how the project, or any of your explorations, goes over in the Studio !

Great input @vr_vagabond_pro! I stumble around these resources quite a bit as well, and I use them every day Luckily, this won’t be the case for long as we got some updates for these resources cooking Just to clarify, it sounds like you’re getting our support page, where our guides and miscellaneous…

@vr_vagabond_pro You can approach this a few ways, depending on how you wanna approach the project…

Arkio to Revit

You can start a scene in Arkio and send that scene to Revit and it will include anything you modeled within that scene. I’ve used this workflow when I like to setup a site model in A…

Depending on the type of building and its location, the footprint could represent the total site lot or the overall footprint of a building. If you snag a screenshot I can poke a bit more at the setup.

@Hugh_Soward Thank you for this great feedback and ideas ! It means a lot to our team to receive this input and push Arkio to be the best it can be . I got a few questions to throw your way!

I’ll try to reproduce this with the information you’ve provided. I can’t really speak to the compiling error from udon but I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some overlapping errors there. I’m still a bit confused on your use. Are you trying to store the mesh into unity for uploading to vr chat?

Hi @Justin_Lameres , welcome to the community! If you’re feeling up for it, introduce yourself and Say Hello! 👋 Do you have any screenshots or reports of those errors happening? Can you share a bit more behind your intended use? Pushing Arkio to Unity is a bit different than VR chat, we don’t offer…
