ms-holographic-experimental branch is very dated #130

Noemata commented 7 years ago

The ms-holographic-experimental branch is very dated at this point and cannot be built with current tooling (VS2017).

I was able to build this version with VS2017: https://github.com/mlfarrell/angle

When can we expect this branch to catch up? It is still referencing Windows 8.1 components. Should we assume this branch will not be supported by Microsoft? It would help to get some sort of statement around this. No support from Microsoft is ok, at least then the community can move on. Having the branch sit here implies it might be updated.

Hi Noemata, @MikeRiches may be able to help here.

Noemata commented 7 years ago

Thanks @austinkinross, how would I contact @MikeRiches?

austinkinross commented 7 years ago

I think he'll get email notifications for this thread now. I'll also let him know about this thread later today.

No word back yet.

You can try out my branch, but there's some things you'll need to do manually to get things up and running on your engine since the branch doesn't do automatic stereo rendering for you. Someday when I have time (which is far away), I'd like to make a hello world example for it.

Thank you very much @mlfarrell , I will definitely have a look. I'll provide my feedback in your repository.

I had also managed to set things up to build on MSVS 2019 as well as get stereo running.

One commit on my branch here with fixes:

It would be great to try to merge HoloLens support back into the main development branch.

I also have a 3D Model Viewer sample built with it, using eC and the Ecere SDK:
