@Normcore Assistant it wont fucking load
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I apologize for the frustration you're experiencing. To provide a more helpful response, I'll need more specific information about what isn't loading and what steps you've taken. However, based on the limited information, here are a few common issues and solutions related to loading problems in NormalVR:
1. DLL Not Found: If you're getting a DllNotFoundException for RealtimeClient, make sure the RealtimeClient.dll exists in the Plugins folder of your standalone build. On Windows, you might need to install the Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 redistributables. Common Questions (https://normcore.io/documentation/platforms/common-questions#standalone-builds)
2. Instantiation Issues: If you're having trouble instantiating objects, ensure you're using
Realtime.Instantiate() instead of Unity's Instantiate(). This is crucial for proper synchronization in Normcore. RealtimeComponents (https://normcore.io/documentation/realtime/common-questions#realtimecomponents)
3. Unity Version Compatibility: If you've recently updated Unity, make sure your Normcore version is compatible. Older versions of Normcore may not work correctly with newer Unity versions. Documentation (https://normcore.io/documentation/realtime/common-questions#realtimecomponents)
4. WebGL Issues: If you're working on a WebGL build, there are some known issues and limitations. For example, SendRPCMessage doesn't work in the WebGL alpha. WebGL (https://normcore.io/documentation/platforms/webgl)
5. Oculus Platform Initialization: If you're working with Meta/Oculus, make sure you've initialized the Oculus platform at runtime. Meta Platform Prerequisites (https://normcore.io/documentation/guides/meta/meta-platform-prerequisites#initialize-the-oculus-platform-at-runtime)
Without more specific information about your setup and the exact issue you're facing, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact problem. If you can provide more details about what specifically isn't loading (e.g., a scene, a prefab, the entire application) and any error messages you're seeing, I can offer more targeted assistance.

@Normcore Assistant dumb it down also more images
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I apologize, but I'm not able to provide images directly. I can only reference information from the knowledge sources provided to me.
To simplify the explanation about loading issues with NormalVR in Unity:
1. Check your files: Make sure all the necessary Normcore files are in the right place in your Unity project.
2. Use the right commands: When creating objects in your game, use
Realtime.Instantiate() instead of Unity's regular Instantiate(). This is important for Normcore to work properly.
3. Update your software: If you've updated Unity recently, you might need to update Normcore too. Old versions might not work well together.
4. Look for error messages: If you see any specific error messages, they can give clues about what's wrong.
5. Check your internet: Normcore needs an internet connection to work. Make sure you're connected.
6. Restart Unity: Sometimes, simply closing and reopening Unity can fix loading issues.
If you're still having trouble, it would be helpful if you could provide more specific information about what exactly isn't loading and any error messages you're seeing. This would allow me to give you more targeted advice.
For more detailed help, you might want to check out the Getting Started guide (https://normcore.io/documentation/essentials/getting-started) on the Normcore website, which provides step-by-step instructions with visuals.

@Normcore Assistant this is the error i get Asset Packages/com.normalvr.normcore/Plugins/Mac/RealtimeClient.bundle/Contents/_CodeSignature has no meta file, but it's in an immutable folder. The asset will be ignored.
also im using gorilla locomotion script
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Thank you for providing the specific error message. This error is related to the Normcore plugin on macOS. Let's address this issue and then discuss the use of the gorilla locomotion script with Normcore.
1. Regarding the error message:
This error occurs on macOS when the RealtimeClient.bundle file has been quarantined by the operating system. To resolve this, you need to remove the quarantine attribute. Here's how you can do it:
Open Terminal on your Mac and run the following command:
Replace "/path/to/project" with the actual path to your Unity project. This command is mentioned in the Common Questions (https://normcore.io/documentation/platforms/common-questions#standalone-builds) section of the Normcore documentation.
2. Regarding the gorilla locomotion script:
Normcore is designed to work alongside custom scripts, including locomotion systems. However, to ensure proper networking of player movement, you'll need to make sure your gorilla locomotion script is properly integrated with Normcore's networking components.
Here are a few steps to consider:
a. Attach a RealtimeView and RealtimeTransform component to your player object.
b. Use
Realtime.Instantiate() to create your player object at runtime, rather than placing it in the scene.
c. If you need to synchronize custom data from your gorilla locomotion script, you may need to create a custom RealtimeComponent. You can learn more about this in the Synchronizing Custom Data (https://normcore.io/documentation/realtime/synchronizing-custom-data) guide.
Remember, without seeing your specific implementation, it's difficult to provide more detailed advice. If you encounter any specific issues with integrating your gorilla locomotion script with Normcore, please provide more details about the problem you're facing.
Lastly, make sure you have properly set up the Realtime component in your scene and added your App Key as described in the Getting Started (https://normcore.io/documentation/essentials/getting-started) guide.
If you continue to face issues after addressing the macOS quarantine problem and ensuring proper integration of your locomotion script, please provide more specific details about any new errors or unexpected behaviors you encounter.

@Normcore Assistant i get stuck at entering unitys playmode for ever
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I understand you're having trouble entering Unity's Play mode and it seems to be stuck indefinitely. This issue could be related to how Normcore is initializing or connecting to the room server. Let's go through some potential causes and solutions:
1. App Key: Make sure you've correctly entered your Normcore App Key in the Realtime component in your Unity scene. Without a valid App Key, Normcore might hang while trying to connect. Getting Started (https://normcore.io/documentation/essentials/getting-started)
2. Internet Connection: Ensure you have a stable internet connection. Normcore needs to connect to its servers when entering Play mode.
3. Firewall or Antivirus: Check if your firewall or antivirus software is blocking Unity or Normcore from accessing the internet.
4. Realtime Component Setup: Verify that you have a Realtime component in your scene and it's properly configured. Getting Started (https://normcore.io/documentation/essentials/getting-started)
5. Script Errors: Check your Unity console for any error messages. There might be a script error preventing the scene from fully loading.
6. Unity Version Compatibility: Ensure your Unity version is compatible with your version of Normcore. If you've recently updated Unity, you might need to update Normcore as well. Support QA (https://normcore.io/documentation/realtime/common-questions#realtimecomponents)
7. Clear Unity Cache: Try clearing Unity's cache by going to "Edit > Preferences > Cache Server" and clicking "Clear Cache".
8. Rebuild ScriptAssemblies: Delete the "Library/ScriptAssemblies" folder in your project directory and let Unity rebuild it.
If none of these solutions work, you might want to try creating a new, minimal scene with just a Realtime component to see if you can enter Play mode. This can help isolate whether the issue is with Normcore or with other elements in your scene.
If you're still experiencing issues, please check the Unity console for any specific error messages and provide those details. This will help in diagnosing the problem more accurately.

@Normcore Assistant how can i remove you
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I apologize, but I'm not sure I understand your question in the context of NormalVR or Normcore. Are you asking how to remove or uninstall the Normcore plugin from your Unity project? If so, I can provide guidance on that.
To remove Normcore from your Unity project, you can follow these general steps:
1. Open your Unity project.
2. Go to Window > Package Manager in the Unity menu.
3. Find "Normcore" in the list of packages.
4. Click on it and select "Remove" or "Uninstall".
However, if you're experiencing issues with Normcore and that's why you want to remove it, it might be worth troubleshooting the problems first. We've been discussing several issues you've encountered, and there might be solutions available without needing to remove Normcore entirely.
If you could clarify what exactly you mean by "remove you," I'd be better able to provide a more accurate and helpful response. Are you trying to remove a specific component, disconnect from a Normcore room, or something else related to the NormalVR platform?

@Normcore Assistant Assets\Normal\Examples\Cube Player\Scripts\CubePlayerManager.cs(19,39): error CS0118: 'Realtime' is a namespace but is used like a type
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I understand you're encountering a compilation error in your Unity project with Normcore. Let's address this specific error:
The error message suggests that there's a namespace conflict with
Realtime. This typically happens when you have a using statement for the Normcore namespace, but you're also trying to use Realtime as a type.
To fix this error, you need to fully qualify the Realtime reference. Here's how you can do it:
1. At the top of your CubePlayerManager.cs file, make sure you have the correct using statement:
2. Then, in your code where you're using Realtime, change it to Normal.Realtime.Realtime. For example:
This fully qualifies the Realtime class, distinguishing it from the Realtime namespace.
If you're still having issues after making these changes, you might want to check if you have any custom classes or namespaces named Realtime that could be causing conflicts.
Remember, when using Normcore, it's important to use Normal.Realtime.Realtime.Instantiate() instead of Unity's Instantiate() for network-synchronized objects RealtimeComponents (https://normcore.io/documentation/realtime/common-questions#realtimecomponents).
If you continue to face issues after making these changes, please provide more context about your script and how you're using the Realtime class.
