Got my Rift!

Postby Jeffers2112 » Sun Jul 23, 2017 5:11 pm

Received my Oculus Rift today after taking up the special offer.
So far I've just done the set-up and a tutorial.
One thing I found that I was very happy with is that I don't need the glasses I normally wear to use the computer with the Rift, it looks far better without them.
So I'm finding it a quite amazing experience, just need to try it with Elite now!

Just trying to sneak one in without the Mrs finding out......(Just built a new box.....3 grand)

I can't seem to find anyone with stock till the end of the month though (UK)....

Maybe that's a good thing though.....

Gimme a bit more time to negotiate.......

Pardon but why not order direct from oculus ?

Also setup hotas binds for the maps.
The mouse is unusable in vr now.
It used be just shit but fd has done something lately so it's just totally pointless.
Pun intended.

But if you setup the binding for a hotas (And I really hope you have one) you won't have to think about that mouse again.

People call me Bob.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Hmmm, haven't heard back. I guess he's lost in space. ;)
It's time to give this another go.

Seriously - what happened to Jeffers2112?

I wonder if he's eaten or slept over the last 3-4 days, or even gotten up to go to the bathroom. :P

I guess, he didn't find a way to come to this forum with the rift on his head.
So he decided to simply give a funk. :D
