Hi - does anyone know if there is a plugin or method to render a 360 degree animation from 3d max so that its in a format compatible with the oculus rift ? I was thinking that perhaps someone may have mimicked a virtual 3d max equivalent of the camer...
I'd like to know if it's possible to use the IOCTL_OCUSBVID_GET_VIDEO_FRAME ioctl under Windows 7 64 bits to get the current captured video frame of the DK2 camera from a user space application.For now I can successfully open the I/O device correspon...
when it gets good enough people might be able to hack the goggles and add fake spiders or fake ghost with a loud sound to scare peoplealso it could get to a point where what people like to look at (invisible tagging) so proper advertising direction w...
I understand that officially it's experimental and only tested with nvidia.In fact it does not work with mesa and I am interested why.Running stuff doesn't show much:./OculusWorldDemo_x86_64_DebugDebug: [NetClient] Connected to a server running versi...
Hi,Im using the New Unity and Maya Trial Mode to develop a Game.Is it be possible to share my game here (oculus sharing category) using this softwares? or is it not legal?Thanks!
I was really hoping, during Oculus's last event, that we'd see Oculus take lead over of the lack hand tracking with the Rift, and release their own hand tracker controller. Unfortunately, that did not happen. With the Hydra unobtainable now, the STEM...
I'm a VR enthusias and have ideas I would like to see come forward in VR. Since OR is the main goal in vr, I would like to see the following implemented in OR.1. Wireless, for the or headgear to run on batteries for least 6 hours.2. Disc based insert...
Hello everyone,I'm trying to replicate what this team has done here: https://github.com/Matsemann/oculus-fpv.Basically I'm trying to mount a gimbal to the bottom of a drone and controlling where two cameras will point via the oculus.I'm having troubl...
Where in the configuration utility can you suppress the health and safety warning? .4.3 says that is a new feature.the config utiilty looks exactly the same for me but when i go in help it says that it is .4.3am i missing something?thanks
There will be a lot of motion tracking input devices & associated APIs out there by the time the Rift arrives, but it will hard for any developer to support more than a few of them & so these devices will only work a for a few games.In my opinion, wh...
I posted a thread on reddit about this last week and I've finally made a shitty demo "So I watched the Tom Forsyth Oculus Connect talk about developing VR and he said something interesting at around the 40 minute mark about 'blink transitions'. So y...
Hello,Here is my experience with the DK2 so far. I work with SDL2, OpenGL 3.3 in default profile (compatibility ?) and Windows 7 64 bits for now. I was surprised to get the Direct HMD mode working flawlessly (with this initialisation order : ovr_Init...

On the DK1 I was able to check out all of the demos, all of the roller coasters, everything. I only got a bit of motion sickness once or twice, and it always was after using it for a long time, and under other circumstances (long day, tired etc..)But...
Received the Oculus DK2 this week and have been absolutely blown away by it.The best experience has been with Elite: Dangerous and Half Life2, the immersion is spot on.Motion sickness is a problem at first but I slowly introduced myself into it. Firs...
Hi,I have been trying to run this code I got from a previous post "Simple, one page, OpenGL example (Oculus SDK 0.3.2 Preview)" on my Mac Xcode 6.0.1 with OpenGL:2.1, GLFW3.1 and GLEW1.11.0. I can build the code without any error and a window gets cr...
First of all, please oculus, set up a bug tracker or a mailing list, or something that will facilitate a direct path of communicated bugs and isuses without going through this forum.I'll post a couple of issues I've found so far with my minimal testi...
Hi All,I have a sample codebase which worked perfectly fine on DK1 & SDK 0.2 combination. However, same piece of code is not working with DK2. Old sample fails to create the device itself. Just to cross verify I wrote a sample code for device initial...
HiI have some strange behavior. When I play completly empty scene on 1920x1080 I get 37,5 FPS (the half of required 75). When I play 1280x720 everything is fine, I get 75 FPS. But the more strange thins is that when I change the resolution to 1600:90...

Hello,I'm looking for a 3D Model of the Oculus Rift DK2 that I could include in my game.Where can I find one ?It would be really cool if that would be included into the SDK (.OBJ and .FBX) and "royalty free".It seems that the one made by "MannyLectro...
So I just updated from 0.4.2 to 0.4.3 and there were a bunch of changes to the SDK which I needed to incorporate into my code. I listed the ones I was affected by here to aid others in their updating.ovrHmd_GetEyePose is depreciated so remove:eyeRend...
I wanted to make a post because I hear a lot of people nay saying about games not specifically for vr and wanted to share my experiences with moding gta sa for the rift because I think it applies to the new gta5. I was able to get gta sa to work real...
So I'm making a program for the rift, using Game Maker studio. It does not natively support the rift but there is a community extension, which I have even contributed a tiny bit to myself: http://www.gmoculus.comWe have standard client rendering work...
ALT.CTRL.GDC is an exhibit at GDC that shows off games with weird, experimental control methods and input devices. It was one of the coolest things at GDC last year, and they just opened the call for submissions: http://www.gdconf.com/news/altctrlgdc...
I currently do not own a rift, but as a developer, I've been looking for examples of semi-flawless player head-tracking/body movements to study for a small game I'm making. I want to be able to create a realistic fantasy character that'll give the pl...
Following the "eye-Patch" discussion on Reddit, I made a suggestion that could either be genius or simply nausea inducing.Rendering two view points each time to update the screen is very process intensive.So why just don't? Only render one eye and th...
Hi, we just added DK2 support into CopperCube, by upgrading from the 0.2 SDK to 0.4. And it was quite a PITA do do that unfortunately, because quite a lot seems to have changed since the 0.2 days, and we also had to make some modifications to the SDK...
I'm not too experienced with programming or unity, but I've been developing a game, but I am unsure on how to get speech recognition integrated to it. I've watched a few tutorials to make one on c# but i can't seem to get it to work inside of unity. ...
