Q&A

Where can I find OpenGate XR?

The app for the headset can be found directly in the Meta Store or at this link. The webapp, on the other hand, is available HERE

Can I import any 3D asset?

Generally yes, but be careful that with assets that are too heavy, the app might lag or the connection might fail to load the asset.

Qual are the upload limits?

You can upload up to 30 assets on the Webapp (max 25MB/each and max 250MB in total). In each scene on the headset, you can load up to 10 assets simultaneously)

How do I log in?

The same email and password must be used on both webapp that on theapp on the headset to link the accounts.

Where do I use the PROMO CODE?

If you have a PROMO CODE provided by Metagate, you can use it directly in the app on the headset when you subscribe in the Login section.

How do I upload a .FBX?

To correctly export your FBX file so that it is ready for Mixed Reality viewing on OpenGate:

Open your 3D asset in Blender
Go to “Texture Paint”
Select the entire object
In Texture Paint, select the textures you want to export
For each texture, go to “Image” and choose “Pack”
In the export menu, make sure Path Mode is set to “Copy” and that the icon to its right is enabled.

Can I create a game?

At the moment there are no triggers yet, so only games like memory, puzzles, and treasure hunts are possible. We are working on a multiplayer feature, which should pave the way for various other types of collaborative games. We are noticing that in mixed reality, the concept of gaming is also evolving and is best expressed when it blends real and digital. For complex games, it is still necessary to work with code.

Come visualizzo un PDF?

After uploading a PDF file to the webapp, you will find it in the Cloud section of the OpenGate XR app in Mixed Reality, along with other content. You can grab it, resize it, scroll through the pages, and zoom in on the slides for an immersive and interactive consultation.

Come uso un mp3?

After uploading an mp3 file to the webapp, you can find it in the Cloud section of the OpenGate XR Mixed Reality app, along with other content.

Manage your audio in Manage Music (path: Scene/Manage Scene/Manage Music) by choosing whether it should be ambient sound or a localized 3D sound (button Spatial Audio). You can also choose to activate the audio only when you are near it (button On Trigger). Adjust the Spatial and Trigger variable ranges to customize the experience.
