[Oculus Rift - CV1 support]

Like has been said a couple of posts ago -  CTRL ALT Studio has stepped up! <3 <3 

They have released their beautiful viewer to the public now and it works perfectly for the CV1!!

With the right tweaking - I can maintain about 60 fps in a largely populated area and 90 or so without the clutter  

There is basically NO difference between what you can get in a normal viewer .. and the VR viewer too - it is BEAUTIFUL!!! 

This is exactly what I wanted for SL - thank you so much! 

 

I did  have a chance to use the SL viewer for the short time it was released and was too depressed to post here due to the quality - but now i've renewed my SL interest due to the CTRL ALT Studio viewer <3

Looks like there has been some progress! 

On CtrlAltStudio's blog comments , David has included a link to the video for the alternate viewer meeting that was held last week.  

The linden lab team is currently hard at work on a update for their viewer to support CV1 - they have ran into some obstacles with the SDK ... but they really do think it will be soon. 

Very good news - i'm craving this experience!

 

For now - i've been using the steam app 'Virtual Desktop' - which is by no means what I'm hoping for.  For now though - that program allows me to put a huge screen close to my face and with zooming in I can almost make myself think i'm flying around in a first person view of a 3d environment.   But it is just a flat screen - and is as good as putting blinders on your glasses and blocking out everything aside from the computer monitor and playing that way.. ... well a bit better than that but not much.

Yes please please Lindens <3 People who make this wonderful game - please update for the CV1 ! 

I did contact firestorm , and they are sending me in the direction of Cntrl Alt Studio , has anyone had any luck contacting the studio yet? 

 

 Maybe a updated time estimate of when it might work? I've been seeing that a lot of programs and apps are getting the 1.3 update pretty quickly so I 'hope' this one won't take much dev time for everyone.   I just am so looking forward to this!

With the launch of the CV1 2 days ago , i'm hoping that i'll be able to use my new CV1 rift with second life. 

I did try using the current viewer provided : 

Second Life Project OculusRift Viewer version 3.7.18.295296

When I launched the game I did the normal steps and I just couldn't get the display to show up in my rift.   

Anyone know of any information for this ?  Being able to navigate second life on my cv1 is one of my biggest reasons for looking forward to getting it! 

 

Thank you!
