I just got my rift the other day and wanted to get straight to playing around by converting some of my demos in C to work with it.Instead of using the sdk source directly in my projects I found this: https://developer.oculusvr.com/forums/viewtopic.ph...
Hey all, I just purchased. 2 new GoPro Hero 3+ Black edition cameras and this stereoscopic mount and sync cable here: provideocoalition.com/jfoster/story/gopro-dual-hero-3dI am looking to make some stereoscopic stills and videos for my DK2.... This s...
I'm playing around with displaying some UI in my app. The recommendations seem to say that it should be drawn as part of the 3D scene. Such as a floating polygon in front of the camera. But as far as I can tell, the Oculus samples don't use this tech...
HiI would like to use the Oculus Rift inside a flight simulator. The flight simulator is based on a 6 DOF motion platform. We need to use the relative positon of the Oculus to the cabine. Not relative to the outside world. This because the cabin may ...
Since I might have to wait quite a while until I can upgrade my PC and I haven't ordered the DK2 yet, I'm wondering if the DK2 supports running resolutions below 1920x1080 a la 1366x768 or 1280x720(800) ?My current machine is'nt very powerfull, intel...
Does anyone know the mount options for the DK2 tracking camera? I saw at PAX they had some custom stands made, so I assume top of the monitor is not the best idea?
Hey All,I do not yet have a rift (I didn't submit my order until July so I don't expect it any time soon), but I am in the process of developing a game with the intention of having rift support.My question goes to those that have a rift - In a situat...
Gang, I have DK2, is there any free/cheap environments that can be used that allow you to demonstrate VR that allow you to Create a Room, drop some custom objects in and walk around? I mean quick, with minimal programming :?: ..
I was pleased to see a minimal sample app in the SDK, in the form of Oculus Room Tiny.Unfortunately, this sample is using D3D.Where could I obtain a minimal DK2 app that is based on OpenGL?I intend to use the SDK provided distortion rendering.Thanks,...
You're going through the wrong path, like us programmers manipulate computers you guys should be manipulating the human brain with a compatible programming language, make a programming language or make one compatible with the human brain to manipulat...
Hi All,I will probably not be a huge contribution to the community, so I am grateful for the opportunity to share my thought here and perhaps make a small difference in the future of VR.At Disney World, one of the most exhilirating and breathtaking e...
Hi all, Today Dejobaan Games released an update to make Aaa for the Awesome DK2 compatible! I tested it and it works really well. I had to edit the launch options in Steam to add -vr and it runs in Extended Mode (not using the SteamVR). I had no luck...
Hi,I am getting some weird behaviour when setting the Rift Display Mode to 'Direct'.I create my GL context using SDL2, with these calls: SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION, 3); SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION, 2); SDL_G...
Hi! Sorry for double posting this, but in Unity integreation forum I didn't get any feedback. I am wondering if it wasn't a good standard feature to have crouching implemented, as the dk2 gives a very nice new exploration option by moving your body a...
Ok, so as the updates have stated, there will be a way to mirror the dk2's vision. Is this effectively the same as it currently is with the DK1? If it's a separately rendered window, will there be a way to "undistort" the image? This is mainly for pe...
While I wait patiently for my DK2 I thought I would canvas for opinions on what post-processing effects people have tried and what works/doesn't with VR so I know where I should spend my time.Eg:BloomDepth of FieldFilm GrainLens FlareMotion BlurHDRCe...
Apologies for cross posting. I had to make a few forum replies before being allowed to post a new topic. I spent a lot of the summer working on a demo in C++ for Windows that uses OpenGL3/GLM/GLEW/Kinect/Bullet Physics/FMOD/Oculus Rift. The code is u...
Hello Everyone.Basically I just wanted to get public opinion on whether someone who is new to oculus development should consider using UDK or Unity? I work as a software engineer myself and have an MSc in games development, so the programming languag...
Hello all.In the future our team may continue using DK2 as development kits (sdk support, etc...)? Or will we have to replace them all by CV1?I know that may sound like a joke :mrgreen: , but I have not found information about it.
{update20140809}hi guys, we put it on Kickstarter.We worked really hard to make it affordable and easy to use. Now you guys are able to get this kind of stuff home and play with it. We are exhibiting a few days later at Siggragh 2014, booth 533. Back...
I made some quick estimates of bit rates/ file sizes for VR content, and realize sharing such large files could be problematic at the moment.Don't read too much into the numbers, as they are based on speculation/ prediction and lots of variables.But ...
I made a simple game in unity to test stuff but it crashes whenever I open it.
I've notice while using the DK1, that the image appears smoother due to the low latency of the screen. To try to simulate the effect, I've attached a handheld massager to the front of the rift; a leather wallet between the two absorbing most of the v...
Well, this is just an idea, but solves many problems I have been having with input. As an android developer, I realize there is so much you can do with a phone, and that's where the idea came. I linked my phone into my computer, and in turn to the oc...
Is the Rift SDK license compatible with sofware licensed under GPL ?I am not a lawyer nor is english my first language, so i was not able to reach a conclusion.
Just curious, how are people handling the movement of a first-person character now that we have positional tracking? Even just sitting down in a chair, for example -- it really breaks the illusion to, say, lean over to one side or the other, then loo...
Hello my name shots, I'm from merida, I am writing to you because donot who deal with this issue ... but I have very important ideas to improve this product, I am developer but devido the crisis we are living in Spain I can not afford a kit developme...
Does anybody know what the second argument to "ovrHmd_GetRenderScaleAndOffset()" is? (the one called "textureSize")I've tried all sorts of values and the only thing I know for sure is that it isn't the size of the texture.
It has become a bit of an issue that Oculus released the runtime part of the SDK as a proprietary component. And while that won't directly affect me in development as I (hopefully) won't have do deal with it directly I would still prefer to be able t...
I know you can bring models into unity or UE4 etc, I was wondering however if there is a half decent simple model viewer that uses the DK2 + Tracking available now to download? I was looking at XNALara and Skyrim as model viewers, but there is a lot ...
