GDXR

Well, my week has gone down hill. I went to turn my PC on after working on the GDXR template, Wednesday evening and it wouldn't boot. Showing a CPU error on the mother board and no sign of life. So I've had to book it into a local computer store. The guys over there are gonna go through the whole thing and see what's happening but it's gonna take around 5 working days till I'm back up and running.

For those waiting on the new GDXR UVRT update I'm going to upload the most recent version I have backed up to the epic store around 12PM today.

Hopefully I'll be back up and running soon.

For those with booked tutoring sessions, I'll still be able to do those through my laptop instead.

See you all soon.

Panic Over. We seem to have found the fix for building Android APK projects with 5.6.1
If you update to 5.6.1 you will need to do the following steps to get the android package to build again.

Close your project and delete the following files
- Delete Intermediate folder
- Delete Saved.
- Delete Derived
- Data Cache
- Delete Binaries
- Delete Build

Keep the project closed and got to your main hard drive mine is :C Drive.

C Drive > Program Files > Epic Games > UE5.6 > Engine > Extras > Android > Run SetupAndroid.bat wait for it to unzip and complete then press enter.

Re launch your project and it should work. Video tut included.

Unreal Engine 5.6.1 can no longer build to Android, Dont update yet if your working on Mobile APK projects.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know, do not update to unreal engine 5.6.1 just yet. It looks like android studio is completly broken. I had no problem doing android builds in 5.6 yesterday but this morning after updating its completely broke. Im currently trying to figure out if its just on my end or if others in the discord who have already updated are having the same issue.



This is the error log for anyone interested.

GDXR

Hey everyone, I hope you’re all having a great start to your week. I just wanted to let you all know that there wont be a video upload today due to my Internet Router having a hardware issue over the weekend.

I’ve spent the last two days trying to fix it with no luck and the earliest a technician from our provider can come out is on Thursday.

I have tried hotspotting from my phone to my PC but it’s not happy with me uploading videos to YouTube. It just keeps failing.

The plan though is to try and get them uploaded for you all tomorrow, I’m going to go to a shared co working space which should have a WiFi connection and good enough internet to upload.

Hope you all have a great day.

- Jonathan

Currently attending TechNExt at Proto in Gateshead. Just finished the first talk on using XR for use in healthcare. Some interesting stuff being shown off.

Interested in seeing what's discussed next.

If you're around, come say hello.

Hey everyone! I’m working on ways to improve the GDXR Youtube channel, the Discord community, Patreon content, and YouTube Member perks — and I’d love your input.

I’ve put together a short Google Form where you can:
- Request specific VR tutorials.
- Share what kind of content you’d like to see.
- Help me understand your goals, experience level, and platforms you use.

This is open to everyone, whether you’re a regular viewer, a dev just starting out, or someone who's been building in VR for years. Your answers will help shape the tutorials I create next and hopefully make GDXR even more useful to you all.

Thank you to those who take the time to fill it out, you can do it as many times as you like.

All the best,
Jonathan.

Pimax Crystal Light Review

I was sent a Pimax Crystal Light for review on the GDXR channel. It arrived broken. Then I got sent parts to fix it. THEN... it got remotely bricked. No replacement in sight.

So here it is: my review of a broken headset.

Watch the full video for the story, what went wrong, and what this says about Pimax’s handling of product issues.
