⚠️ DISCLAIMER: This API will be removed in some upcoming release (probably 3.0). The whole solution (for simplicity reasons) is best to be implemented on the server side. Anyway, if any of you really need to try it, feel free to go.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER 2: The sample code provided is simple enough for you to integrate with your case and way to launch recording. Basically it records when room connects or script is enabled. Stops capture when the script is disabled or room disconnects. More important are the troubleshooting steps.

A while back Dylan (here on discord) shared a project where they did Quest hand tracking networked with Normcore. I wanted to do something similar, but updated for the new oculus runtime, the new Normcore2 preview, and optimized a bit further. the result is a new package - ...

I was having trouble finding examples of how to use RealtimeDictionary, so I put up a quick guide on how it works for anyone who gets stuck in the future: https://gist.github.com/d12/f577bb50b0fdeeb17084819c78fe5c43...

Allows to enable/disable synchronization of RealtimeTransform bundled with Rigidbody by enabling/disabling this component. It just forces to kill the remaining running coroutine. The syncing of RealtimeTransform triggers physics syncing every frame, even when objects aren't moving. so once you get to a couple hundred in the scene, the performance hit really adds up. with just a couple hundred objects you can hit multiple ms per frame, even if you're only moving a few of those per frame...

I wrote a script that attaches to a RealtimeTransform in Rigidbody mode and gives me a roughly 3x improvement in the FixedUpdate performance. It's just a prototype for now, i haven't tested it thoroughly and there could be edge cases i haven't considered yet. Plus its using reflection so it could completely break if a method gets renamed in a future normcore update. But I think some of the principles could be safely applied to the normcore source without changing any behaviour and breaking backwards compatibility . E.g, caching the results of the model null check and model.isOwnedLocallySelf instead of calling them twice. https://gist.github.com/liamcary/628e5c4833ae0ba18c2c570992aeb993...

Made a Normcore sample with MRTK for Oculus Quest Here is #MRTK-Online!...

I saw a few people asking a question that I was also asking: how to setup a throwable object scenario. Scoured through the back logs here to find the simplest path to get there, and wrote up this instructional. Should take less than 10 minutes to go from importing Normcore to functional throwing multiplayer. I've mostly been using it to teach some friends who are completely new to the software, but hope its useful to you all to. Thanks Normcore! https://arvrjourney.com/how-to-setup-a-basic-vr-multiplayer-ball-toss-using-normcore-d86f1476e87c (and if anyone sees ways to improve this, definitely appreciate the feedback)...

Someone just asked me to send them the code snippet of how I am using RealtimePoolManager in my project for all the prefabs and avatars so I just created a gist, hope it helps someone who hasn't already implemented pooling with RealtimePrefabs. https://gist.github.com/harrissaleem/4db886a735a2f5af88abfaeca6505290...

Hey folks, I wanted to share the first release of the Parameter Binder. Hope y'all find it useful. https://github.com/chetu3319/Normcore-ParameterBinder/releases/tag/v1.0...

Normcore-adjacent code: yesterday i prototyped a simple serverless-backend for managing a room list using Google Cloud Functions and Firestore. Once deployed to google cloud you can use normal http calls to create a room, join or leave an existing room and get a list of all rooms. https://github.com/liamcary/multiplayer-room-backend...

Script for spawning players on different spots: Note: I have a public Transform[] array located in a script called GameManager, called "playerPos". Inside that array, there are different empty GameObjects located on the positions where I want my players to spawn....

In case anyone else is experiencing issues with RealtimeTransform's sometimes dropping important position updates (mainly singular large programmatic position updates), this is the script we're using to work around the problem: https://gist.github.com/d12/43e4b4425141bf3c7d24820f20e9563e...

here's a string-based leaderboard implementation, hopefully I remembered everything: https://gist.github.com/Godatplay/5fe4335d518afc40f95be7a4ed47ae07 ...
