SR-71 if enough information are available

For me it stops at 12% and stays there permanently. Very annoying.

I actually tried a vr device somewhere in the first half of the nineties. It was not a product for sale but an attraction in an amusement park. Pretty impressive at that time but shitty by today's standards. It doesn't even come close to the rift. They are world apart. I'm sure you have convince yourself that it is crap and so it is but can we give any credit to someone who talk about something he haven't tried? Are you even honest with yourself there?

I own a kit and honestly you sound like a worm talking about the sun. I tried Live for Speed ( a race sim) with vireio. The issues you points for sims (I played with a wheel) are pretty much non-issues even though it is a matter of personnal convenience. The resolution of the current rift already give a very convincing experience. Btw having played Half life 2 with the rift for hours your comment about FPS is a bit funny :pilotfly: Sure it is lacking in certain areas and for some games it shows but the main problem is the resolution and it should be solve pretty quickly. The 1080p should be enough for many kind of experiences. I'm sure the 1440p won't be that far behind too. Haters gonna hate :music_whistling:

Somewhere in 2014. Can't be more accurate. If I had to guess I would say first quarter but we never know. I think their product is almost ready but they are waiting for sufficient game support before launch. I'm looking forward to the release of Vorpx (http://www.vorpx.com/). It is likely that DCS will be compatible and even if it wouldn't be as good as a native support it should give us a good taste of it :D

You don't have to have an output on both the rift and your monitor. You can have only the rift if you want. It isn't very pratical though since windows can't be switch to an Occulus mode.

Have you set your screen resolution to the rift resolution? It is kind of weird otherwise There is nothing to see on the gauge. They are empty. I don't know if you have tried the titans of space demo: there is a zoom in there that would solve the problem of seeing small details. You would you have to set the zoom function on a spare buton.

Impressive with when watched with the rift

Apparently I can't play hawken with rift but I watch that video with the rift on my head. It shows pretty well how it looks (set on 720 p). Very sufficent for me. Of course you can't see the small digits but I don't need them.

This is not a relevant observation. The pixel density is more than 2 time greater in the center. The 2 sides of the screen overlap and the image is distorted so you get more detail in the center. I will try hawken this afternoon. it should give me a better view since there are gauge in the cockpit (I don't think they are operational but it should do).

I have to disagree. I looked at it with the gauge reading in mind and I felt it was sufficient. With the occulus you will be much closer to the instruments panel than you are with a monitor. Well maybe you won't be able to see the smallest digits but when you know your aircraft you just need to see the arrow to know the reading. I actually can't read them on my monitor with the FOV i use to fly normally and it is hardly an issue. Seeing other planes is another issue but it is pretty hard to see them on a monitor as well. Padlock compensate for that. DCS could also make other planes at least one pixel big as soon as they are at a distance where you would see them in real life. That would do the trick.

Yep you're wrong. I have tried it for 15 min tonight (just received my kit) and I'm stunned (and motion sick as shit :megalol:). The resolution is already enough for a proper experience in DCS IMO. I was quite surprise with the image knowing the crappy resolution.

It looks perfect or at least as much as possible within DCS environement :thumbup:

:thumbup: Amazing job The red tone is not quite right. It should be more ferrari like but that is a very good work nonetheless.

If someone feels skilled enough to do a good airgreenland skin :D Very gaudy.
