I have a pc app that I want folks to be able to see in the Library. My app is not in the oculus store. how do other apps like Virtual Desktop do it?Thanks
In previous SDK releases (pre-0.8), I had been defining and passing in my own custom memory allocator for the oculus runtime to utilize, which had required diving in to LibOVRKernel and calling OVR::System::Init/Destroy manually, etc.. The ability to...
what is the IID or GUID passed in as 4th parameter?
The use of lipo batteries like on fat sharks and wireless HDMI video and USB through bluetooth for wire free movement?I'm not saying the one w/ the backpack but a lipo to attach to the head for some game play that can be recharged later.
I'm working on a desktop app with Oculus support, meaning we call `ovr_Detect` at startup to determine if we should enable the Oculus menu items. However, this function appears to rely on a named global event called `OculusHMDConnected`. The problem ...

Hi I've seen the OculusRoomTiny demo and this simplified version : https://github.com/mattnewport/OculusRoomReallyTinywhich are great but still a bit beyond me with all the directx stuff. I understand the initialization, getting headtracking data b...
Hey all, long time lurker here...You’ve likely noticed that perceived resolution seems to improve while you move your head around with your eyes fixed at a point in a VR scene. While constantly thrashing your head about as if you’re in a Death metal ...
I was just wandering in the game and realizing how real it is. The AI is so smart too. I parked a car in the middle of the intersection and watched how the AI dealt with it in the way. How random stuff happens in the game is also cool. This is all on...

Sure tweaking can be done after but it sure beats the starting from scratch feature. With this it would be possible to recreate an outdoor environment 1:1 and add/remove things.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3wXggCqY_8Obviously the point is to end ...
I'm trying to understand how to determine how to relate OpenGL units to real life units. For example if I make a plane that is 10.0f x 10.0f in OpenGL it's not looking like 10 meters x 10 meters when in the Rift. Is there a method to calculate the ap...

Did someone had the change to toy with the 1.0 SDK? Are there major changes comparing to legacy SDK’s 0.5 and 0.8? I’m also curious if someone tried two Positional Tracking devices for room scale gaming. I’m wondering if it is possible to use two DK2...
hi, I wanted to ask a question a little specific.in the final version of oculus rift, you can set the screen frequency? for example between 75hz and 90hz.in this way, at least at first, you can do the opportunity to test their product even in dk2, an...
I am running Windows 10 with SDK 0.8 and a DK1 using DVI on a GTX 980 with driver 364.51. I am just getting back into VR development, so this is still fresh for me. There was no prior working state.The issue is simple: the kit works fine the first ti...
Any news on whether SDK 1.0 works on laptops? if not are there any plans to support laptops in the future?If anyone knows of ways to get it working please let me know. I would like to be able to demo with my laptop.
Hey how do you view the stereoscopic video file through the Oculus once you have it? I rendered out a scene in 3d and now when I look through the SDK visor I just see the 3d image... not the image IN 3d.Any Idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for all the feedback on the scripting language for VR. I did try them all (including SecondLife) but unfortunately they all have some performance issues.I started working with the Tiny Room demo and actually it works great. I was able to build...
In VR, 75/90 fps is very-very-very important.But i discover some frustration about reach it constantly in current titles out there:- Many games don't have an FPS counter in their UI, or at least it's difficult to discover how (in some cases, need som...
is there any way to get the engine to have a feature of streaming a stictched 360 video feed. for streaming to vr enabled devices? also a standard mirror option from the frimware would be nice. for streaming purposes.
What happens now? When can I expect to get feedback in any form whatsoever? What is the experience of any of you devs that have submitted a RIFT game to the Store? I can't find any official information ...
Hi all, I'm working on my project where I have my own function for translate camera using head tracking. But when i move head scene rotatine instead of simply translate. Do you know if is there a way to disable oculus auto rotation without disable tr...
Oculus-Rift games need a fast PC with a strong graphics card. They won't run on a phone or tablet.Contradictionally, the Windows 10 policy states that Windows Store games must be able to run universally on all Windows platforms.Does this mean that Oc...
Hello all. Just a quick question to confirm something. I've previously developed some software on OSX and Linux for the DK1 sometime ago. I'm back on a similar project with the DK2. Am I right in thinking the current SDK for Linux is Oculus SDK Sourc...
