Disable welcome message on startup?

Obviously the bot will not get this. But is there some way to disable the welcome message on editor startup? It happens every time my project boots up, and seems kinda annoying, intentionally try to keep logs / warns / errors minimal and only required. I guess technically the Getting Started tag is fitting for this lol, mainly cause nothing else fits.

Hi @Camobiwon. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Based on the provided knowledge sources, there isn't a direct mention of disabling a welcome message on startup in NormalVR. However, there is a mention of a logLevel property in the NormcoreProjectSettings class. This property controls the log level for all Normcore-related logging. By default, it is set to Error, which only logs errors. You can set it to Debug for more verbose logging. If the welcome message is considered a log, you might be able to control its visibility by adjusting the logLevel. However, without more specific information or documentation, it's hard to say for sure. Here is the reference to the logLevel property:

NormcoreLogLevel logLevel { get; set; }

NormcoreLogLevel logLevel { get; set; }

You can find more details in the NormcoreProjectSettings documentation (https://normcore.io/documentation/reference/classes/Normal.NormcoreProjectSettings). If this doesn't help, I would recommend reaching out to the NormalVR team directly for more specific guidance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Checking decompile it seems like it's purely based on session state, meaning every editor launch it would happen. This seems kinda annoying IMO, maybe on first install only?

        static Welcome()
        {
            if (SessionState.GetBool("NORMCORE_WELCOME_MESSAGE", false))
            {
                return;
            }
            SessionState.SetBool("NORMCORE_WELCOME_MESSAGE", true);
            Debug.Log("Normcore - Seamless multiplayer for Unity   " + Welcome.MakeLink("normcore.io/discord", "https://normcore.io/discord") + "   " + Welcome.MakeLink("normcore.io/documentation", "https://normcore.io/documentation"));
        }

        static Welcome()
        {
            if (SessionState.GetBool("NORMCORE_WELCOME_MESSAGE", false))
            {
                return;
            }
            SessionState.SetBool("NORMCORE_WELCOME_MESSAGE", true);
            Debug.Log("Normcore - Seamless multiplayer for Unity   " + Welcome.MakeLink("normcore.io/discord", "https://normcore.io/discord") + "   " + Welcome.MakeLink("normcore.io/documentation", "https://normcore.io/documentation"));
        }

I have so many messages I would never even notice this XD

Camobiwon•3mo ago

I'm the opposite, that's my only log on startup, hence why I notice it lol

cryptomax•3mo ago

boy i guess I could probably clean out some debugs....

Camobiwon•3mo ago

I would say it's bliss but then if anything pops up it's an eyesore

cryptomax•3mo ago

I have 140 logs just till you are into the main lobby lol

Camobiwon•3mo ago

o_o

cryptomax•3mo ago

lol... and 10 of these cuz i'm too lazy to find where it's happening RealtimeView: Attempting to auto-detect Realtime instance, but multiple instances of Realtime exist in the scene. Please wire up a reference to Realtime manually in Advanced Settings on each scene RealtimeView. incidentally that message doesnt' tell you what obejc it's coming from... so alot harder to tell where while were on the subject of logging tweaks maybe it could tell you the object so you can locate it easier

Mechabit•3mo ago

you could probably write an editor script to find views with missing realtime references

cryptomax•3mo ago

oh interesting idea, can you make an editor scritp for a locked up script I guess?

Camobiwon•3mo ago

@Max Sorry for the ping but I'm working in this project more and it's quite annoying to see it pop up every time, I know it's kinda silly but like I said I intentionally try to keep console super clean to only see extremely essential things. Wondering if this could be removed or at least an option to disable, or perhaps moved to first install only?

Towellie•3mo ago

Hey Cam It should only show on first launch but I can bring this up for sure, ill get back to you with more info

Camobiwon•3mo ago

From the decomp above it seems like it's using SessionState, which is temporary data bound to the current session instance AFAIK
