Learn to integrate the Ready Player Me avatar system in Unity, set up a multiplayer scene with Normcore, and synchronize avatars with head and hand controllers.
Learn to integrate final IK with an XR origin in Unity, choosing between XR rig setup and final IK. Configure head and hand targets and use procedural and animated locomotion.
Master final IK integration for avatars in Unity VR, enabling accurate head and hand tracking in multiplayer with Ready Player Me and Normcore; debug input references to head and hands.
Learn to implement a custom room join with normcore by using a room name input and join button to connect players in the same real-time room.
Discover how to implement multiplayer object interaction in unity xr using normcore: request ownership, real-time view and transform, and grab interactable callbacks to move shared objects.
Learn to sync object grabs in Unity XR multiplayer with normcore, using real-time view and transform sequences to manage ownership as players join and interact.
Learn how to migrate from Unity XR to Meta XR using the Normcore and Meta Author SDK, install XR Plugin Management, and set up an all-in-one Meta SDK project.
Discover how to create a Meta store app for Quest with Normcore, request Meta avatar permissions (user ID, user profile, authors), obtain app IDs, and release via Meta developer hub.
Install the meta avatar SDK and samples alongside Normcore in a Unity project, configure OpenXR and Oculus platform settings, and use the author SDK manager to load avatars.
Set up a multiplayer scene with a Meta avatar and OVR rig, import Meta XR samples, configure the camera rig at zero, and test with the XR simulator.
Implement and test a grabbing system in Unity VR multiplayer using Normcore, wiring real time view and transform, and manage ownership during parallel sync testing.
Learn to release a project on the meta store by building a signed apk, setting version codes, using alpha, beta, rc, and production channels, inviting testers, and verifying android scenes.
Release your app to alpha, beta, or rc channels on meta quest and grant pre-release access via email invitations through the meta developer hub.
Learn how to test multiplayer in VR by joining from a PC system or a meta device to ensure the proper author is assigned.
Explore the dynamic mesh cutter asset in Unity, learn to slice normal and skin meshes, and configure ragdoll, animation, and plane cutter behavior for VR and mobile games.
Develop basic multiplayer VR metaverse experiences with normcore, enabling grabbing and talking in a shared XR space. Learn when to use normcore versus photon fusion for complexity.
Explore VR development from basics to advanced with Unity 6 LTS, updated XR interaction, and all-in-one SDK, covering XR frameworks and multiplayer VR.
Creating a smooth, cross-platform multiplayer experience in virtual reality can feel overwhelming—especially when you need rock-solid voice chat, realistic hand interactions and avatars that truly represent your players. This practical masterclass guides you step-by-step through building those features in Unity 6 LTS, powered by the lightning-fast Normcore 2 realtime networking stack, the latest Unity XR & Meta XR SDK for Quest 2/3/Pro, plus industry-standard tools like Ready Player Me, Final IK, Meta Avatars and the XR Interaction Toolkit.
What we cover
Multiplayer foundations – Compare leading SDKs, weigh pros and cons, and architect authoritative versus client-hosted setups.
Hands-on Unity XR workflow – Configure input and locomotion, rig full-body avatars with Ready Player Me, and add immersive physics-based grabbing.
Voice & data synchronisation – Integrate Normcore’s built-in spatial voice chat and networked variables for latency-free gameplay.
Meta XR ecosystem – Deploy to Quest in minutes, enable Meta Avatars for cross-app identity, and tap platform social features.
Best-practice polish – Optimise bandwidth, profile server costs, implement lobby/room flows, and add persistence for live Metaverse spaces.
By the end, you’ll have a reusable template scene that supports grab interactions, proximity voice, cross-device play and cloud scaling—ready to slot into your own VR game or enterprise collaboration app. No prior multiplayer experience is required—just comfortable C# scripting and basic Unity knowledge.
