farmertom Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 I have both a PS4 VR an and Oculus Rift headset. I don't use the PS4 VR headset for DCS:(. I can wear the PS4 headset all day without noticing any discomfort. With the Rift, I start to get discomfort in about 30 minutes. I have adjusted the headset to no end. I have purchased VR Cover replacement facial interface and padding. The facial interface is too narrow and stiff for me. I put the VR Cover padding on the original facial interface, nice but that too gets uncomfortable after a while. The PS4 VR headset is comfortable because it has better headband setup. The weight of the optics in hangs in front of you with some very flexible rubber type curtain to block light. The Optics housing part of the head set never really touches your face. So with all of that has anyone hacked their Rift Headset to make it more comfortable? How can I get the Rift off of my face? I wish Oculus would come up with a better headband design, or find a third party to make a modification to the Rift.. Any suggestions? Thanks for listening.:thumbup:
DerekSpeare Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 I have the VR Cover and got it b/c the stock facial interface caused me pain as well. I use the standard VR cover with the cloth, but the make a thicker FI for those who have glasses. Perhaps that could help you?

farmertom Posted July 30, 2018 Author Posted July 30, 2018 Hi, Thanks for replying. I saw those larger (longer) VR facial interfaces. I am worried that if the standard version does not fit the longer version would not fit either. So I purchase a second hand PS4 Vr headset. I plan to remove the head band part and install it onto the rift. I have researched the PS4 and the headband comes off easily. May have to cluge attaching it to the rift. :fear: regards.
