I have made some significant progress in getting the Oculus Rift CV1 to work with T3D.
\nAs stated previously, I am using the Dx11\/Open VR build from HERE<\/a>. I am also using the latest OpenVR SDK, and the example project given in my recent blog post as well.<\/p>\n

The first thing that caught me was that it is necessary to install and configure (go through the on screen tutorials) for both the Oculus Runtime App and the SteamVr\/Open VR app. I had not done this, and it was the reason why head tracking was not working in T3D until I fixed it.<\/p>\n

I am also encountering some issues which I believe are related to DirectX 11. These occur somewhat intermittently. I have noticed an issue caused by running T3D in fullscreen mode (This is not, apparently, necessary for the T3D project to work properly on the rift) and sometimes I get an error connected to the “VR compositor”.<\/p>\n

Restarting the Oculus processes (there are several of them) and the Steam VR process can solve most of these errors, but I have noticed that some still remain. I am still working on this, and it is likely that the Dx11\/Open Vr codebase will not be fully stable until T3D 3.9 is released.<\/p>\n

However, I now have the Open VR demo project working, with head tracking. I now simply need to enable gamepad support, and then I can begin copying the changes from this project to my own Virtual Environment Project (p171).<\/p>\n
