Oculus Rift integrations into CryENGINE 3 FreeSDK.

Same issue here :-(

I am currently developing a space simulator for Oculus Rift under Unity3D, but I want to switch to another more powerful engine. The DK2 is already ordered few months ago.

Due to the lack of lack of support for the Rift in CryEngine, currently only UE4 is a candidate, but as it is not meant to be used for space simulators and some things are therefor harder to implement, I'd prefer to switch to the CryEngine.

Lack of Oculus Rift Support is currently a Showstopper for me using the CryEngine :-(
I really wonder why they dont push that feature?! I mean common, UE4 supports it, and even the "cheaper" Unity3D engine does....

Maybe the development of Chris Roberts Star Citizen and cooperation with Crytek helps in getting in the support natively?!

Any developments on this, I want to demo rift on CRYENGINE.

Crytek demoed full integration into CRYENGINE at GamesCom 2014! It's in German but apparently their demo was really impressive with reduced chromatic aberration and high quality anti-aliasing :D !

Cool thanks for that I'll put a prototype together and hopefully see full VR support before December.

why has nobody got any video of this new Crytek demo. They have my interest even as a UE4 user. I loved the Crysis 1 sandbox, was far ahead of it's time and still like how everything just works together so naturally in the latest engine.

This thread helped a lot.. Thanks

Edit:

First of all The Cryengine is a very powerfull tool!!
It is also a very difficult tool.
With blood sweat and tears It is possible to make a game on your own (I did it).
You pay10 bugs a monts for a multy-million dollar piece of software (which is a bargain).
Other engines are free but you pay for extra contend (frogs, birds, squirels, vehicles, fireworks etc etc).

The Cryengine has VR support now!!

So....
that being said.

What are you waiting for :)

The way they treat their indi developers is of antisocial proportions!

Not true. The CRYENGINE EaaS is for Indies and they have opened up the engine a lot since release. A lot of sourcecode is now available and developers are happy about that.

Dont waiste your time with this engine!

I'm not waisting my time, im spending it developing my game with great success.

We already know CRYENGINE has a specific build that handles the Oculus Rift DK2 perfectly well. So it's just a matter of time before they release the implementation for CRYENGINE EaaS. They'll release support for the Oculus Rift when they are ready to do so.

forget about them.

Nope. With the plans Crytek has for the future of CRYENGINE EaaS i'm totally not going anywhere.

Hey there,



I tried as Batigol said:

r_stereoflipeyes = 1
r_stereoeyeDist = 0.2
sys_CurrentHMDType = 1
r_StereoOutput = 7
sys_hmd_reset_senso

Here is what I did
Bin64/system.cfg:

-- Game data generated by AutoBuild

sys_game_folder=GameSDK
sys_float_exceptions=0

sys_spec=4
r_stereomode = 2
r_stereoflipeyes = 1
r_stereoeyeDist = 0.2
sys_CurrentHMDType = 1
r_StereoOutput = 7
sys_hmd_reset_sensor

- Oculus set to Direct Mode

and then I started the GameSDK.exe

but all I got was a grey screen. Am I missing something?
