See if the support for it in Skyrim has improved. Heard it was a mess when some people tried it, but the potential of playing that game with Occulus Rift makes me wet my pants.

uh. about Skyrim. I'm going to be careful with that, because from what I gather, it's very decent except for the menus which didn't work well initially. even if it hasn't been fixed, with the mods that are out now, I'm going to try my best to not get stuck in the matrix--girl in the red dress situation. uh.

I've given it some thought. I should admit, my motivations for purchasing the Rift were ... what's the word... everyone said it was for development, and I got it anyway to enjoy as a toy.

I've decided to open it, and put it to use. there's a bit of enthusiast modding invovled, (of .cfgs and .dlls and the like), and since 3D modeling is in line with what I foresee for myself...

I've decided to use it. properly--with a curious mind.


So... How is it? What have you done with it so far?

what's EVR?

EVE VR, an Oculus Rift dogfighting game they public tested at Fanfest. It's in development, apparently.


Nah. Sadly, I listened REAL CLOSE to the words they used. It's not in development for production. It's in development JUST for the gaming conventions that EVE goes to. They want to see public reaction. When pressed, they always say that, and make noises, that it's not something CCP wants to do for production. In essence, it's a teaser with no future behind it.

Watch this space.  New exciting signature in development.

IF I had to design such a device, I would use prismas to achieve a good focus distance through a periscope. That also would make it easier to adapt to individual interocular distance, field of view and focusing needs. The image source and focusing device would be on top of the head and lightweight prismas would reflect the image 180º into the wearer's eyes, properly focused.

As a rule of thumb, you shall not focus your eye into the image, rather the image must be focused on your eye. That's a very common mistake for people using binoculars: they strive to focus and see the image clearly, yet the way to use binoculars without eye fatigue is to set your eye focus to infinite and then focus the binoculars until you see the image clearly. So, a focusing device is necessary to any of these VR helmets (and preferably with individual focusing for each eye).

Well, every piece of hardware must either adapt to existing software, or convince software to adapt to it. I wonder how much time have spent Occulur Rfit just getting 3rd parties involved in making the kind of development work needed to feed images into a true stereo-vision device, compared to it just diplaying a 2D image as usual displays.

A wearable 2D screen is exactly at the same place as software is, whereas Oculus Rift attempts to go beyond there and have software catch up with it, both controls and display. Don't know if that's good or bad (i'm becoming a techno-luddite as time goes by), but IMO the state of technology is far mor evolved in 2D display than in Virtual Reality. I've seen one of those Retina displays live and it's amazing -more real than real, in a way. Whereas consume grader Virtual Reality is always lagging because of software support.

Just think, how many current games support 3D glasses? And that's a far more implemented technology than VR...

They atleast have consensual love~Lol


I'm sure EVE VR will be bundled as starter kit with the release of the Oculus Rift which we can expect for 2014 now. We might finally have a release date in our hands for the pretty device, not just the Dev Kit.

Go figure! A few days after I posted this comment - which was very true at the time - CCP announces VALKYRIE. Ain''t that nuts?
