Using more of the VRExpansion plugin


VRExpansion is a large plugin, and it provides a great deal of functionality to VR developers. Now that you have some strategies in place for exploring it and figuring out how it works and how you can use it, you're going to be able to unlock enormous potential.

In addition to the character we've just explored, this plugin provides a VR-enabled player controller, an AI controller, stereo widgets, buttons, levers, and much more.

If you'd like to get a better sense of what this plugin includes (there's far too much to fit within this chapter), hit the View Options popout in your content browser, turn on Show Plugin Content, and make sure Show C++ Classes is visible:

 

Browse through the class directory and see what's in there. If you double-click any of these classes, its native source will open in Visual Studio.

One of your best resources though is the VR Expansion Plugin forum at UnrealEngine.com, found here: https://forums.unrealengine.com/development-discussion...
