    This sucks i only just got my rift and dont want to experience this thing called real life anymore!


    Real life sucks so much ! : :s


    Too much real life can make you ill i heard, i need it back up and running so i can be the dankest warrior ever just like in my dreams!



    Ya, I heard it can cause high blood pressure, obesity, stress, depression and also increase the chance of injuries by a large amount if you spend too much time in it :s



    Not frowned upon to kill in VR either...... always a bonus.

    Since this is the place to talk while we wait, I'm going to post something I was originally going to post in the main thread and ended up making a different thread entirely for. Just looking for advice before I end up buying something that might not be useful to me right now.

    At the angle of the "chimney" seems the best option for me, even if you
    lose some of your gaming space. I installed my third sensor two days
    ago, and it's really no big deal to set up wink

    6.2"? are you a smurf or were you giving us some inappropriate measurements?  This is a public forum Mister!

    I'm about the same height as you (1m83), my two front sensors are 2m off the floor (about 7" ?) and the third one behind on the ceiling (something like 8" ?) and it works great

    Anyone here have a controller layout fix for Fallout4VR,  I was supposed to be figuring that out today( I planned on being in VR today accomplishing that so any help would be appreciated.)  
    I'm trying to use Open vr emulator 1.2 or 1.3 now because the control system is unplayable currently.

    This whole mayhem of certificate expiration is a joke... How long will this take?  will users have to do a new download of the entire Rift Software?  Any guesses? Wagers?

    I'm guessing the Oculus software is still running even if you can't load the environment and they can push it out

    or

    might have to d/l an exe file

    hoping they make nice with Bethesda and get it later this year with support.
