GUI in VR Addon

Adds a GUI for use in VR by translating a 3D raycast from the VR controllers into mouse input for the GUI. This technique could also be used for non-VR games too, but the focus is for VR games.This uses the same test GUI as the GUI in 3D demo: https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/127And uses the OpenVR module: https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/150

Godot OpenVR GDNative module

This module is provided as is, all files are contained within the addons/godot-openvr-asset folder

This module requires Godot 3.1 or newer to run, Godot 3.2 is highly recommended.

The scenes subfolder contains a number of godot scenes that help you set up your project. For basic functionality start with adding ovr_first_person.tcn to your project. Also make sure that vsync is turned off in your project settings.

Source code for this module can be found here: https://github.com/GodotVR/godot_openvr

Also note that we have a support asset containing a number of useful scenes to get you going building VR applications in Godot: https://github.com/GodotVR/godot-vr-common

Documentation on using this asset can be found here: https://github.com/GodotVR/godot-openvr-asset/wiki

HDR support

HDR support was added to OpenVR but requires the keep_3d_linear flag added to Godot 3.2. This will ensure rendering inside of the headset is correct. The preview on screen will look darker. You can solve this by using a separate viewport.

When using Godot 3.1 you need to either use the GLES2 renderer or turn HDR off on the viewport used to render to the HMD.
