This is the start of my personal documentation using Unreal UE4 for VR Game Developing crafted for Oculus Quest. I am trying to collect as much valuable and practical content as possible. The goal is clear. Get the best graphics, and the best performance when developing games for Oculus Quest and using Unreal UE4.

How to build Applications for Oculus Quest using Unreal Engine UE4
If you are using Unreal UE4 to develop Oculus Quest Applications – then you came to the right resource. My name is Bernhard Rieder, and I am a 3D Visualizer and VR Developer for Oculus Products. My VR-Blog FattyBull is a learning and tutoring resource for Developer, 3D Artists and Creative Heads interested in creating & building immersive experiences, games & stories using Unreal Engine UE4.

On my Blog I am documenting step by step what tools you need to develop your own VR application for the Oculus Products. Specifically for the Oculus Quest, using Android and ES3.1 it can be very challenging to deploy applications with maximum performance and quality. That’s the challenge – that’s the task. Welcome to my blog and this journey – having fun creating the best viewer experiences possible. Great to have you here – now let’s get started with the basics.

How to connect your Oculus Quest with your PC USB3 vs. Link Cable
Using your USB3 Cable: First of all, you can just use a standard USB3 cable to connect your Oculus Quest directly with your PC. I also recommend doing this first – so you’ll get familiar with the USB3 Connection to your PC. Typically it will pop-up as Quest and you can access the files by using your Windows Explorer. The folder structure of your Quest Device will look like the screenshot below:

When you use Unreal UE4 to develop for the Oculus Quest, you actually do NOT need anything else besides the USB3 connection. After your device is setup and all essential drivers are installed, you can directly deploy your Unreal Project to the Quest Device. Find below more detailed information about needed Drivers for PC to Develop with Unreal UE4 for Oculus Quest.

Once an application is deployed to your Oculus Quest Device, it can be launched within your VR Dashboard. Library - Unknown Sources

How to connect the Oculus Quest to your PC using the Link Cable
First of all, you need to download and install the Oculus VR Software to your PC. The latest installation files can be downloaded here: https://www.oculus.com/setup/

After installation, launch the application and sign in with your username and login.

Please keep in mind: You need to have a specific Graphic Card that supports the Oculus Link Cable. Only if your GPU is supported, the Oculus Link Connection works. Once your Quest is connected to your PC using the Link Cable, you are no longer operating the Quest with your integrated Android OS.

In fact, the whole purpose of using the Oculus Link is to use the power of your PC and it’s built in GPU card. Once this is setup, your Oculus Quest Dashboard will look different. It will launch the Oculus VR Application from your PC.

Please find a list of supported GPU’s below.
