Splash Screen Blueprints

Updated: Sep 4, 2024

This section serves as a reference guide for the Blueprints in the Online Subsystem Oculus library.

To access these Blueprints, you must enable the Online Subsystem Oculus in Edit > Plugin > Online Platform.

Note: For the initial splash screen, you should not use Blueprints, but instead create an auto-loading splash screen with Unreal. For more information, see Splash Screen.<

Splash Screen Blueprints

Add Loading Splash Screen Adds a splash screen with parameters to the application.

Clear Loading Splash Screens Removes all splash screens from the application.

Enable Auto-Loading Splash Screen Enables/disables the splash screen to be automatically shown when loading a new level.
