How to make a Hologram from empty project ?
I'm trying to create a simple sphere hologram from empty project. I've selected Sphere, I've scene in Unity, I've exported it to VS and I run it in emulator. The problem is that my scene is not a 3D hologram that I can move around, it is starting as 2D window app in which is my Sphere but it is 2D. What I'm doing wrong? I'm doing similar steps like in Origami tutorial BUT I don't want to use all the assets and predefined code because I want to understand it. Any tips ?
// EDIT
When I add and 3D object from assets in this project everything is working as I want. I have a 3D hologram. So where is the difference ?

@Fixus this sounds like the same issue that @abiggs posted about in: https://forums.hololens.com/discussion/322/why-is-my-app-always-deploying-in-2d-mode#latest
Do you have Virtual Reality Supported in the Project Settings?

@Fixus is your camera position 0,0,0?
and the Sphere that you created as a 3D object in Unity, did you place it at some location in front of you? say 0, -0.5, 2.0 ?

Check out the Unity development overview page for some Unity specific settings:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/holographic/unity_development_overview
(Also make sure in Unity, when you make a project, you select it as a 3D project instead of 2D)

@HoloSheep yes, when I check everything in Unity it looks perfectly fine. the scene is played correctly
@neerajwadhwa thanks I will check that
@Joan thanks I will check that link. In Unitiy I'm building 3D project for sure

@HoloSheep exactly. I've found that today and I've just tested. This the same thing
@neerajwadhwa thank you. Your link is very helpfull and yes, there is a solution I've missed the virtual reality support
You must add Windows Holographic SDK in Build Settings/Player window, see attached image. Cheers!!
