# SimpleVRCpp

Simple C++14 example of how to use OpenGL, SDL2 (2.0.8) with Oculus VR SDK 1.3.0 (OVR) and OpenVR SDK (1.0.17).

This should be considered a hello world program with as few dependencies as possible.

Both project uses a single source file with a similar structure.

## Dependencies

 - SDL2 Development Libraries (2.0.8) https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php

 - GLEW (2.1.0) http://glew.sourceforge.net/

 - Oculus SDK (1.30) for Windows https://developer.oculus.com/downloads/native-windows/

 - OpenVR SDK (1.0.17) https://github.com/ValveSoftware/openvr/releases

 - GLM (bundled)

## Getting started

- Create Visual Studio 2017 project using CMake GUI  (https://cmake.org/download/). 

- Open project and run

## Notes:

 - ovr_CreateTextureSwapChainGL crashes in 32bit debug build. This is an issue with the SDK. https://forums.oculusvr.com/developer/discussion/39734/ovr-createtextureswapchaingl-crashes-everytime

 - Compile LibOVR with runtime library set to Multi-threaded DLL / Multi-threaded Debug DLL

 - Use GLEW static library (to avoid depending on the DLL)
