Switch targets between Vive and Oculus using scripts (not GUI)

[bearaccount]

Goal is to switch the headset target programmatically (so it's compatible with build pipeline). Manual way is of course switch headset target in VIU (Edit -> Preferences -> VIU Settings).

Method we have tried:

1. Try to load a VIUSettings file. Steps:

• In VIU Settings -> Choose Wave
• Copy newly created Assets/VIUSettings/Resources/VIUSettings.asset and rename "VIUSettingsWave.asset".
• In VIU Settings -> Choose Occulus Use Load: "HTC.UnityPlugin.Vive.VIUSettings.LoadFromResource(path);" where path was "Assets/VIUSettings/Resources/VIUSettingsWave.asset" Open back VIU Settings (still set to Oculus) and did a build for Wave (broke).
• Changes in file: m_activateOculusVRModule: 1 m_activateUnityNativeVRModule: 1 m_activateUnityXRModule: 1 m_activateWaveVRModule: 0

2. Tried to set symbols directly using PlayerSettings.SetScriptingDefineSymbolsForGroup Swapping symbols in an Editor script which throws Unity Editor into a compile loop: << OCULUSVR_ANDROID_SUPPORT >> VIU_WAVEVR_SUPPORT

Results is no change in target.

We need this for the build pipeline to build for two different targets.

Try using:

EditorUserBuildSettings.SwitchActiveBuildTargetAsync(group, target);

@bearaccount Hi, did you manage to switch the target headset programmatically?
