Common Issues

Getting Started

Plugin Setup

Quick Development

Install to HMD is a bit more dificult. You must have ABD settup for your meta quest device, (many tutorials online), then set the "AbdPath" setting in your project's DefaultEngine.ini file. Inside the file, find "[/Script/DOWNSHOT_SDK.Settings]" and type in the location of your adb.exe install, no quotations. If you have sidequest installed, it would most likley be ...\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\platform-tools\adb.exe. Install to HMD is not fully functional yet, it currently will only work with one mod project at a time. Your engine will manualy need to be restarted after setting the AbdPath setting. A working example in your DefaultEngine.int file would be:



[/Script/DOWNSHOT_SDK.Settings]

ModName=test

SDK_Version=0.11

AdbPath=C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\SideQuest\platform-tools\adb.exe
