Im trying to load in the shotgun.fbx (along with others) but they appear to be failing? - I picked the shotgun as its used in the duck shoot demo so I know it should work ! I am using LoadObject("shotgun.FBX") then positioning it. Other FBX files load, it all seems hit and miss (all assests tim copying from other 3d demos by AppGameKit )

Debug mode, as im running with the VR plugin, when I run in debug it just says.

"AGKVR" required by this ap, it may not be available for this platform ? - so no debug mode for VR ?

Im trying lots of different 3d objects and they are all not loading, which leads me to think its something im doing. Ive tried scaling the object etc

should all be working fine, can you show some code?
the only obvious issues i can think of are;
- positioning, make sure they are actually near or infront of the player (easiest way is to position it at the hmd position then use moveobjectlocalx/y/z), if you are inside the object it won't render
- the camera draw range, make sure you are setting the near and far ranges to a good level and it's not cropping the object from being rendered
- scale, the object might be too small as vr has it's own scale - though you say you already tried it

if you still cant get it to work then just copy the code from the example demos and see what youre doing differently.

You sure you got the scaling right? In the example code, it goes like this:

LoadObjectWithChildren(ShotGun,"shotgun.FBX")
SetObjectScalePermanent(ShotGun,0.028,0.028,0.028)

I remember one time I tried to put a chair into my game. I took on my HMD and looked around. No chair. Then I looked up and saw this death-star size object hovering above me!
