There appears to be some sort of problem where syncing on WASM and Android leads to dropped frames. The only sync that causes this problem is the delayed sync that occurs after rolling over a buffer -- in that case the sync is often placed one frame late once we realize that the rollover has occurred. I'm not sure if this is a driver quirk or an improper use of glFenceSync but for right now avoiding the fence on the problematic platforms fixes the immediate issue. |

LÖVR
A simple Lua framework for rapidly building VR experiences.
You can use LÖVR to easily create VR experiences without much setup or programming experience. The framework is tiny, fast, open source, and supports lots of different platforms and devices.
Homepage | Documentation | FAQ
Features
- Cross-Platform - Runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and even on the web using WebAssembly and WebVR.
- Cross-Device - Supports HTC Vive, Oculus Touch/Go, Windows MR, and includes a keyboard/mouse VR simulator.
- Beginner-friendly - Simple VR scenes can be created in just a few lines of Lua.
- Fast - Writen in C99 and scripted with LuaJIT, includes optimized single-pass stereo rendering.
- Asset Import - Supports 3D models (glTF, OBJ), skeletal animation, HDR textures, cubemaps, fonts, etc.
- Spatialized Audio - Audio is automatically spatialized using HRTFs.
- Vector Library - Efficient first-class support for 3D vectors, quaternions, and matrices.
- 3D Rigid Body Physics - Including 4 collider shapes and 4 joint types.
- Compute Shaders - For high performance GPU tasks, like particles.
- Multiplayer - Includes enet for multi-user VR experiences.
Getting Started
It's really easy to get started making things with LÖVR. Grab a copy of the executable from https://lovr.org/download,
then write a main.lua
script and drag its parent folder onto the executable. Here are some example projects to try:
Hello World
function lovr.draw()
lovr.graphics.print('Hello World!', 0, 1.7, -3, .5)
end
Spinning Cube
function lovr.draw()
lovr.graphics.cube('line', 0, 1.7, -1, .5, lovr.timer.getTime())
end
Hand Tracking
function lovr.draw()
controllers = lovr.headset.getControllers()
for _, controller in ipairs(controllers) do
x, y, z = controller:getPosition()
lovr.graphics.sphere(x, y, z, .1)
end
end
3D Models
function lovr.load()
model = lovr.graphics.newModel('teapot.fbx', 'teapot.png')
end
function lovr.draw()
local x, y, z = 0, 0, 0
model:draw(x, y, z)
end
You can try more examples in your browser on the docs page.
Building
You can build LÖVR from source using CMake. Here are the steps using the command line:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .
See the Compiling Guide for more info.
