Software Prerequisites

  • Install an XR center
  • Have the configuration wizard installed

Hardware Prerequisites

  • Same of Skyreal VR

Installation

  • Execute SkyRealSuite - Setup 1.21.exe
  • When you inistall the differents modules of XR center, check the CollabAgent module:

Warning, we recommend installing the agent on a machine other than the XR center server for greater stability

  • Install XRcenter Agent Collab as a service, it can be found here C:\Program Files\Skydea\CollabAgent\
  • Launch cmd in admin and copy the path of CollabAgent\Skr.XRCenter.CollaborationAgent.exe and write service install
  • Repeat this step but write after the path service start
  • Check on your Windows services, if the service of your collab agent is starting

Setup Collab Agent

The agent is configured using the xrcenter-agent-collab.json file
1- Open the "xrcenter-agent-collab.json" located in C:\ProgramData\Skydea\xrcenter-agent-collab.
2- Check that the "HostUdpPublicAddress" is the IP address with the right port (8888).
You can run collab without a GPU ! To do this you need to set "RenderingNullRhi" to true
3- Check that the "ClientSecret" is the right one, it is defined in the xrcenter.default.json file.
If it says "CHANGEIT", set it in the configuration wizard:



4- Once changed, check that it is correctly defined in xrcenter.json, xrcenter-agent-prep.json and xrcenter-agent-collab.json

Gold rules

  • Only work in collaboration with clients that are separate from the server.
  • Do not use the server as a client for a user
  • Put your collab agent on a dedicated PC (neither used by XR center nor by a client)
  • The preparation agent and the collab agent must not be on the same PC.
