What versions of MRTK, MRCK and Unity for new project? #222

Closed eirikhollis closed 6 years ago

eirikhollis commented 6 years ago

Hi, I'm looking to develop a new app for the Hololens focused on the Spectator View. I've previously been using Unity 2017.2 with the latest master branch from the MixedRealityToolKit. However, I see that this kit is not as updated, and that there are problems with the later versions of Unity.

For a new project, what versions are correct to use? I'm guessing Unity 5.6, latest MRCK release, and the MRTK release for 5.6.2f1? Or is it possible to tweak some code to make it run on 2017.1 or 2017.2?

Hi, I would also love to use the spectator view for my current Unity 2017.2 project. If there are some tweaks to do this, I would be happy to hear about that!

The installation checklist in the docs is typically kept up to date with the latest recommendations as far as Unity versions. From there, the latest Toolkit releases should stay up to date with the recommended Unity versions.

The SV update (https://github.com/Microsoft/MixedRealityCompanionKit/pull/271) should make these decisions easier by removing the Toolkit version dependency.
