Photon Networking with Leap Motion

[blajoie95]

Hello Everyone,
For a final project, me and my classmates are creating a multiplayer, cross-platform Jenga game in Unity. One of the platforms that I am working on is the Oculus Rift, including the Leap Motion. We have a basic room set up with our players spawning, but our problem comes with the Leap Motion player. Through Photon, we have set up or views and components in several different ways, but cannot get the hands to show up over the network. Another problem we've run into was implementing the Interaction Engine over the network as well. If anyone has any first steps to take or advice into getting this to work it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello! I have the same problem as you now xD, did you solve it? ;_;

Had to do the same thing for a project. I passed the hand transform data using Photon RPC calls on update.

Hi guys, I have been trying the same for my project which includes VR + Leapmotion in Photon unity.
did anyone succeed in implementing photon multiplayer with Leapmotion ?

roelpalloj mentions the fact that networked play has to share information and the RPC is deprecated but has been replaced in Photon PUN. Here is the link: https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/pun/current/gameplay/rpcsandraiseevent

So think of the LEAP detector seeing a pair of hands and unity renders them in the game scenario for you the player locally, because they are associated with your visor point of view. They need to be part of what is passed to the shared scenario.

I am not very familiar with multiplayer, but I imagine it should render with your character body or your associated tasks.
Hope the link helps
