Launching applications
Hey, I got stardust server running from the release page (stardust-xr-server-0.43.0-x86_64.AppImage). Flatland is up, everything is black but my hands. I saw in a help thread you suggested protostar hexagonlauncher (here)[https://discord.com/channels/647222689777582080/1193008243333672960/1194291874240929833]. I built that but am unsure how to run the hexagonlauncher, I only no a little bit of rust and cargo. I think there was a way to launch a sub package. like this protostar ±|main|→ cargo run -p hexagon_launcher but it looks like everything is still black with just the hand arrows.

For context I have a Quest2 with ALVR. I'm also able to bring up SimulaVR.
oh alvr?
that works?
Yeah, works well too. I remember I tried about 1.5 years ago and it was awful.
huh i might try it again (i wanna stream stardust to my lynx r1)
anyway try the develop branch of both the server and flatland
i sorta broke some stuff
Okay, the steps I have taken look correct though?
yea i think so
For ALVR, I just ran the appimage, nothing special. Then from SideQuest, I installed ALVR-light. And it all worked. ADB was already setup from previously. But shouldn't require any voodoo magic.
Okay cool, let me give the dev branches a go.
last time i tried steamvr just kept on glitching
also protostar isn't yet updated for the refactors
so you'll have to wait to use that until i upgrade
sorry
No sweat, I'm just trying to get some stuff going as it is. I barely know what I'm doing, hahaha.
I built the dev branches, but still black with just the hand tracking cones.
hand tracking shouldn't do cones
darn you steamvr
try launching with
--disable-controller
too flatland?
cargo run --disable-controller
?no to the server
sorry
okay
cargo run -- --disable-controller
worked.
But, no black background anymore. The cones are gone, the hand tracking shows controllers now. but now there is a block box that says StardustXR and below that a dark gray box that says Next Up. I can't interact with tit though.
Oh, maybe that had nothing to do with it. Seems like Flatland does nothing now, and dropping that parameter still gives me the same setup. Seems like having closed everything down and started everything back up (including ALVR and SteamVR). improved things.weirdddddd
are you using the develop version of flatland too?
you also need to launch an app
yeah, the develop branch of flatland.
