  • Hi, welcome to the forum! 

    Yes, you can do all that with Oculus Rift and Touch controllers. It's funny you mention rend386, that is a very old program I haven't heard of since I was researching classic books on VR. Today the best software for VR would probably be Unity ( https://unity3d.com/ ). To use Unity you would export an FBX file from your 3D modeling application and import it into the engine. From there you can view it with Rift and add Touch controls.

    There is a tutorial and more documentation on our developer documentation:
