  1. 1. Oculus Rift and DCS World Discussion

    • 599$ did not faze you, and YOU PRE-ORDER IT!
    • 599$ puts me into bankrupcy - I will not spend that kind of money - WILL NOT BUY
    • on the fence, will BUY LATER (at retail launch)

You can use a modified version of opentrack, it will use the gyro in the Oculus Rift for the head tracking, plus the razer hydra (one of the controllers) for the positional tracking: you need to "strap" it on your oculus rift.

 

To have a cross-hair in the middle of your screen and use it as "mouse pointer" (to use the cockpit switches...) you need to modify your clickable_common .lua: use_click_and_pan_mode = true

Thanks a lot!

I was hoping that would not happen. It almost certainly means that there will be no consumer version until the middle of next year at the earliest.

TBH, once I hear back from a few people, if DK2 is good enough, I'll prolly order one now and not wait for the Consumer version .

 

I know it works with pretty much every sim I Run (DCS, iRacing, ArmAIII) etc

 

And is supported by Star Citizen, and DayZ

price is going up $350

 

 

add shipping and taxes, and it is becoming very pricey.

 

I would go for DK2 but do not have the spare funds for it at the moment

Be careful with that, I had trouble with the confirm button, and now appear to have 2 different order numbers.

 

Whoops.

No problem. The page seems to think that I have not checked the box (that I have checked). Two browser and many attempts to complete means that Oculus just lost a sale.

I actually have a another agenda...the Rift can be used to help with amblyopia/strabismus. Playing DCS is just the cherry on top.

 

Ordered my DK2 just now. Oh.the web page wasn't rendering right for me at the end. I checked the checkbox and hit ENTER (I only saw EDIT ORDER). And the order went through just fine. shipping charge was $22 USD.

 

Can't wait to check out the improved graphics capability. And to be honest, I wanted them to have the order for further development. Same reason why I buy DCS modules, so they can be profitable and make money!

They did not list any charge for taxes on my attempted order. That will come back to bite them.

I am just very tight when it comes to spending money lol

 

also the guys who ordered from the uk, do you have to consider import duty or is that factored into the shipping / tax charge?

It's listed as Tax/Fees so yeah,

(sorry if this is a duplicate) Why would it come back to bite them? It's on the *buyer* to file local state taxes when filing. If Oculus has no physical presence, they can't be compelled to charge state taxes. At least until the law changes in the US.

Does it work with DCS without hacks? Or do you need some kind of 3rd party software at the moment to use it with DCS?

You can mod DCS for it to work, I'm hopin' that the "Oculus integration" that Wags showed off would be done before July,
