Using Animotive with Quest Pro Facial tracking requires having your Quest running in developer mode. To start, you’ll have to register as a developer with Meta.
- Log into the Facebook, Meta, or Oculus account that you use with your headset.
In the next step, you will put your Quest into developer mode.
- The easiest way is by going to the Quest app on your phone, tapping Menu, and then going to Devices.
- Select your Quest, then scroll to Headset Settings.
- Tap Developer Settings, then use the toggle to turn developer mode on.
To use desktop VR applications like Animotive with your Quest headset, you need to use Meta Quest Link. More information about Meta Quest Link can be found at the following link:
Do note: the Meta Quest Link can sometimes experience errors when first connecting to the Oculus software on desktop, this is a problem that Meta is aware of and we are hoping for a fix in the near future for the occasional crashes. We have found that restarting the Oculus software along with your PC and headset fixes the issue.
We recommend your Meta Quest should be set up in room scale mode for using Animotive so you have the freedom to move around.
Once you have your Quest headset set up with the appropriate permissions listed above and connected to your PC via Meta Quest Link, you are ready to get started!
