[Remote rendering problem] RemoteManagerStatic.StartupRemoteRendering not working

[whatthemehek]

When trying to create a custom remote rendering script, I am running into a odd crash. Referring to the RenderingSession documentation, I created an async function called InitRenderingSession, called on Start, using the example code as a basis:

async void InitRenderingSession()
    {
        RemoteRenderingInitialization init = new RemoteRenderingInitialization();
        Debug.Log("successful RRI");
        init.GraphicsApi = GraphicsApiType.SimD3D11;
        init.ConnectionType = ConnectionType.General;
        init.Right = Axis.X;
        init.Up = Axis.Y;
        init.Forward = Axis.Z;
        init.UnitsPerMeter = 1f;

        RemoteManagerStatic.StartupRemoteRendering(init);

        (...)

However, when I run my script, calling InitRenderingSession() in Start(), I receive the following error:

RRException: Could not initialize remote rendering.

Is there a step I am missing that is causing RemoteManagerStatic.StartupRemoteRendering to fail?

Hi again, which documentation are you referring? Can you post a link?

From the posted Stacktrace, it looks like it's a Unity project. When using Unity, please stick to using the provided RemoteManagerUnity following the documentation: Set up Remote Rendering for Unity or Tutorial: Viewing a remotely rendered model. For ARR to work in Unity various set ups and hooks are required, which RemoteManagerUnity takes care of.

Switched to RemoteManagerUnity, getting a different error so I am opening a new issue regarding that.
