SkateZilla Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I dont understand why Im seeing videos of 14-15 yr olds with DevKit units, what's the point?, they arent gonna develop anything for it, and they are gonna whine and complain when it goes retail with better specs than their dev units. Smh.. which is why I got my Dev Unit, played with it for a week, then shipped it to a buddy of mine so he can work on stuff for it (Since he didnt have the $$ for kickstarter) Windows 10 Pro, Ryzen 2700X @ 4.6Ghz, 32GB DDR4-3200 GSkill (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR x2), ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate, XFX RX6800XT Merc 310 (RX-68XTALFD9) 3x ASUS VS248HP + Oculus HMD, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS + MFDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burner_Tbird2 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 So, who all here has a rift? I got mine about a week ago. I've done successful aerobatic flights in DCS with the Rift using Oculus Overlay, Monitor.lua and OpenTrack. Resolution is too low, but we all know that. Its fun, but it makes me want the consumer version that much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burner_Tbird2 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Oh and an update for all the people talking about not being able to see the keyboard. VorpX drivers to be released shortly have a virtual keyboard that can be pulled up while in game. Hopefully they'll work with DCS but its a decent solution either way.

Flim Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Ya, we should have some drivers shortly! I have to say that Flying with the rift is more enjoyable than a monitor, even with the low resolution. Once useable drivers are released, I would like to get a MP flight together with all the rifters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemonic Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I have mine for quite a while now. Currently use it on weekends for an hour to check demos which pop up every second day. Didn't flew in DCS in mine, as I found all the existing methods to hook it up in DCS unsatisfactory. And I don't want to spend too much time hooking it up in DCS now, and then twitching for proper stereo setup, because of low rez, I know that I will not use it much for DCS. Actually waiting for VorpX driver, which should be out soon, hopefully it will be a good plug&play solution to try it in DCS and FSX. But I like the idea to get all the rifters in one online DCS flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
