Leader98 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 No Oculus software update available here... There is a mention that I should get a new graphic driver before I can get Rift Core 2.0 but I already have the latest Nvidia drivers installed.

dburne Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Oculus has always done gradually rollouts over the course of several days.

fitness88 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Does any have anything to say about the changes/improvements using 2.0. I'm assuming it's still only in beta? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tn_prvteye Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 :mad: I'd like to know, too. The damn Oculus BS software has to be running now, and eats memory. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitness88 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I don't see anywhere on the Beta page or any other page to turn on 2.0. Public Test Channel is active. Where do you turn 2.0 on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) Does any have anything to say about the changes/improvements using 2.0. I'm assuming it's still only in beta? No, the version rolling out to all now is no longer in Beta. At least officially. I have been running Rift Core 2.0/Dash ever since it became available in beta which was I believe last Jan. I myself really like it , but am fairly used to it now. I did not find it caused me any performance hits over running the Rift without Oculus Home open.

On the beta tab I enabled then disabled Public Test Version, I tried Demo Mode. I have Automatic App Update enabled and I tried the Dash and new Home. I should ask if it is an improvement?

fitness88 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Open the Oculus app on your computer. Select Settings in the left menu. Click Beta in the top tab list. Turn the “Rift Core 2.0 Beta” toggle on to opt in to the Rift Core 2.0 beta. I don't see the “Rift Core 2.0 Beta” toggle or any 2.0 download option.

On the beta tab I enabled then disabled Public Test Version, I tried Demo Mode. I have Automatic App Update enabled and I tried the Dash and new Home. I should ask if it is an improvement? 1.31 is what is considered Rift Core 2.0 / Dash.

dburne Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Is there a benefit in DCS to running the beta for oculus? Oculus software - 1.31 - is no longer in Beta. You can sign up for the Public Test Channel and get new releases before the general public.

fitness88 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Thanks dburne for the explanation.

fitness88 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 1.31 is without a doubt Oculus Riftcore 2.0 / Dash. What's been confusing me is the only time I would see The new Oculus Home showing a tall ship was in the Public Test Channel, now I see it when I'm not in the PTC as a result of an update a couple of days ago. The old Home showing a carpet on the floor is now finished, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitness88 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Yes correct. There are also different Home themes in Rift Core 2.0 you can choose from. Thanks... I used to be able to run DCS without Oculus Home opening, now with the new version it's back to opening automatically when I click on DCS. I'm trying to remember what I did to prevent it from opening. Also is this new Oculus version any better at opening DCS from its library, the older version wasn't able to?
