Katmandu Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 After speaking to/reading posts of some Rift S owners in yesterday, I've learnt that not all of them realise that the nose gap of the old CV1 is also a feature in the Rift S. Just pull out the rubber nose pad and enjoy being able to use keyboard and mouse without messing around with video pass-through and removing your HMD. Insert the rubber piece back when you feel like totally isolating yourself in VR in other games - its tabs will lock in place, so the process is completely reversible. Kudos to Oculus for this feature - it's nice to have this attention to detail and customer wants. Enjoy and S!:pilotfly:

Katmandu Posted May 23, 2019 Author Posted May 23, 2019 Can you make a video ? It sounds like a very nice feature !!!! Just pull it gently and feel the soft rubber tabs popping out, there is no tricky process involved. Pop the tabs back in to attach it back in place. And it's an awesome feature, well done Oculus!:thumbup:
agathorn Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 Oh thank you!

Many of my posts are typed on a laptop with an old keyboard that has a personality all its own.
