General Interactions

  1. You can now Teleport out and switch between domes, whilst watching the same piece of content to see how it looks in each structure.
    Some structures aren't available yet as they are not 3D modeled fully.

    On first entry you should see a blank 6m Cylinder, this is our most popular structure and serves as a good landing point.

    From here you can select which dome you would like to view, by moving (or teleporting) close to it, and interacting with it using the highlighted button on your controller.

  3. To play the next piece of content, Grip your Left Controller to make a fist. This will bring up the following menu. You can then interact with it using your right hand. Similar to how an artist would use a paint palette.

  4. From here you can also flip the menu over, to view the piece of content you are currently playing. There is a small bug in the system, and if you are playing the last thing on the list, it doesn’t turn yellow

    Info
    titleContent

    The black walls are just because no content is playing. If there is some content playing you would be able to see it.


  6. To change to a different igloo, you will need to move around the room. To do this, look at your controller, and it will indicate the correct button to press to teleport around the room.
    Press and hold this button to create a teleport jump, then let go to jump to the highlighted location.

    Move towards a wall of pictures which illustrate each dome you can view, move right up close to a picture, and hold out your controller until it the button turns yellow. Then click the rear trigger on the controller to select that igloo structure.

  8. To play some content within the dome, press the Oculus/Vive home button, and select the Desktop Viewer.
    This is built into both systems and allows the user to interact with their desktop using their VR controllers from inside the headset.

    Pull Igloo control to the front, and select the content you would like to run. This will then play on the Warper, which in turn will appear inside
    the igloo structure you have active. Switiching structure does not stop the playback.

  3. You can also roam around the room, to get a better idea of the structure, and its dimensions.
  4. If you trigger a clip using the Igloo Control application, you will then be able to see it inside the structure.

Keyboard Shortcuts


To help with development, and instances where you may not be using an Oculus rift, or HTC Vive, we have created a debug mode where you can use the following keyboard commands, as well as your mouse, to move and interact with the IglooShowroom program.
In addition to this guide, these commands are displayed in the active game window.
