HTC Vive with Wave SDK (Unreal SDK)
HTC has deprecated the WaveVR Unreal SDK in favour of ViveOpenXR, so the dedicated AR51SDK_WAVE plugin is being retired from AR 51 releases. HTC Vive headsets are now supported through the standard OpenXR runtime, which the AR 51 SDK covers with its AR51SDK_OPENXR plugin.
Set up HTC Vive with the OpenXR path instead. The steps below remain only for existing projects still on the Wave plugin.
Follow the "New Project" instructions from the Vive Wave website
