Not bad for $200 card from ebay

[SkateZilla]

was eyeing a R9-295x2, cuz I Needs the MiniDPs,

But still $500 used, and New Stuff for AMD will be out in 90 or so days, dont have the budget to blow $500 anyways.

 

Till then I got my 3x 7970 Lightnings,

They have served me with distinction since the day I forked out $600 each for 2 of them and snagging a 3rd for $180 that was a RMA Replacement the seller already decided to go with nVidia so he sold it w/ no reserve quickly....

 

I bought them when I had Zero Bills and Straight Income a few years back, lol,

 

I can run DCS using 3rd Party Program (VorpX) w/ decent FPS.

 

I look forward to DX12 Games, Right now I have 1.... So Windows 10 doesn't get a lot of Up-time.

I get so irritated... :mad:

 

I just found a video about the Vive on YT. It was a "review/first look" by a couple of guys with a large, mostly young is my guess, following and they had queued for a couple of hours to have a go with the Vive.

 

I thought "great - a recent review from the UK".

 

Within a couple of minutes they came out with this blinder:

 

"The Vive is something you can engage your whole body with, whereas the Rift and GearVR are just head-tracking devices." :doh:

 

They also were comparing the Vive to the DK2. :noexpression:

 

Unfortunately, it seems most of their audience liked this "review". This is the problem at the moment.

 

I used to go around such videos and post things like "VR is going to be great, whichever headset you buy" - mostly in response to the heavily one-sided videos, but I've given up doing that. Wasting my time, I think.

@ Brixmis. For me the seated VR rift experience will be just fine for my main interest of simulation immersion. Also, and of great importance to my physical well being, I do not (yet) have a rubber padded room required for the "whole body" VR experience. ;)

There is a YT Video that Proves DK2 and CV Rift works with "Room Space" tracking.

Though it's not designed to.

lobo, I agree - I have zero intention of standing with a VR device on my head.

 

Skate - yes, I've seen one, too. As well as the Oculus VP giving the relevant info (size of space you can move etc - can't remember what it was, though).

Part of me was hoping he'd bump into his PC walking around with his HMD on, lol.

New VR oculus v1.3 support

 

I would only be interested in download DCS world if it has VR oculus v1.3 support!

 

So does either DCS world open beta 1.5 or DCS 1.5 running well with oculus now that CV1 is officially released?

Just realized that DK2 users can't modify their IPD in 1.3 anymore

 

Damn that might seriously mess up the perceived cockpit scale, I knew something felt 'off' when testing ED

Woah, Boeing!

Maybe one day DCS will look like this in VR!!!

[vicx]

DS, display sounds and looks great but the star of the show is whatever box is doing the driving. Must be a hell of a PC.

 

Still to bring this back to VR ... anyone tried using DK2 with new Oculus driver? How does the ATW work with DK2?

I'm running the DK2 with the new Oculus Store (v1300 runtime) without isses. What is ATW?

[_Acoustic_]

ATW is Asynchronous Time Warp.

Are you saying you are running DK2 and oculus 1.3 in DCS world?

[DerekSpeare]

ATW is Asynchronous Time Warp.

 

HA...duh...I knew this :wallbash: ATW is baked into the new runtimes.

 

DCS isn't running. This was covered a few pages back.

 

Here's a teardown of the CV1:

 

[Chivas]

Wags suggested a few weeks ago that TW in an earlier Oculus runtime is having a good impact on DCS. Hopefully ATW alleviates the judder issue even more.

Wait a sec...SkateZilla, since when are you a moderator/tester? That wasn't always the case was it?

 

Derek,

Can you imagine that Boeing video in VR? I may never get out of my chair/sim! :) :thumbup:

Haha yeah, I think you were the one who posted the link about ATW being baked in, without it I wouldn't have known what ATW was. Blame it on the waiting game for CV1! I'm starting to hear from a few people that are getting emails about 1-3 week ship dates... still waiting on mine.

[vicx]

Just tried the DK2 with Oculus 1.3 drivers. IMO the DK2 isn't running right.

 

It is subtle but the timing is just slightly off. If I was new to VR I probably wouldn't notice it but I have clocked a lot of hours in the DK2 and I am noticing it.

 

VR desktop unlocks in a few hours so I'll buy it and I'l set a background with a grid. It is grids that really show up the problems.

[Elo001]

Are you by chance referring to some kind of "warping" near the edges? Cause I noticed something as well

Oculus Rift Consumer - not working with DCS

 

Hey guys

 

I've just received my Rift Consumer HMD, but I can't for the life of me get it to work with DCS. I've started the game in Other VR mode, enabled the "Detect Oculus Rift" button in options, but I just get a black screen on both the Rift and the secondary monitor.

 

Any ideas? Am running the latest Oculus Rift software that works with the Consumer version.

[dooom]

didnt wags post that something is broken for the rift... i think they are working on it

[Oesau]

Yes, see here http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2725802&postcount=6062

[=DECOY=]

I hope they fix this before I get mine this month :(
