Oops I meant 4.3

Alright. For what little I do, I have just been focusing on the stuff I've described. The last time I tried something with the default physics, I had a door that instantly flied off the hinges into the sky. (I was able to fix it, but couldn't do much with it due to it being complicated with a characterbody which I assume will be similar with Jolt)

enabling dev mode on the quest is easy, I’ve done it a few times!

EDIT: On top of what I said below, I think the facebook-->meta transition might be an issue too. They might've even originally been using an Oculus account.

Issue is they haven't used it in a while so that causes issues with the account to unlock it. That and the fact that there is even the hint of it being restricted to someone part of an organization (I am not sure if it's even still true or if they really just don't check) sounds overcomplicated at-best and something they will be wary/scared of doing at-worst.

This is not the newest device, I thought I had read that the firmware had opened this up. I got to use the menu for less than a minute (cool hand tracking+overlay and even the grainy AR display was my sort of aesthetic) and decided to apply an update thinking it'd just reveal dev mode in the settings... after the update it seemingly couldn't do anything other than spinny loading circle (I didn't see how to get to the settings again).

I was lucky there, I still regularly use my Rift S so my account was at least current. That’s a weird problem… we’ve been updating so thankfully don’t have any need for the older (standalone) headsets
