Quote from Amynue :

Those who Kickstarted the DK1 are the true winners here. They got both the DK1 and CV1 for only $300 and they were first to get them.

if they ebayed their dk1 early enough the probably actually got paid money and got a free cv1

Quote from Scawen :

EDIT: I came across this image which also seems to show portrait screens. http://imgur.com/vBwIfGB

the image makes it also look like there might be a problem with packaging the screens any closer to each other
since both the vive and the rift have standadised on the same screens and orientation im guessing theres a good technical reason for it


also good news my order now has a price to it (so they apparently looked into it and its still in their system)
still no news though
in less good news its 741 f-word in gerund form euros... theres one way to tell people f-word you for not kickstarting us ^^

phew thats reassuring
thanks for finding it

occulus really could be more on the ball with answering support questions through their form
its been a day now

Quote from Amynue :

I think it's a common problem. Does the Rift apear in your Order History? Make sure to check your spam folder. I got my email half an hour after ordering.

it does appear in my order history but for whatever reason there is no estimates price shown
and no order number of any kind

Quote from Scawen :

That depends on the software. LFS runs easily at 90 fps on the Vive, on my computer that is well below the latest Oculus required specification. Software developers could try to write code that is less costly per pixel.

yeah but lfs runs on a potato

Quote from Scawen :

It seems to me all the extra pixels will just go into a little extra peripheral vision.

even at the dk2s resolution its alomst impossible to find a pc that can push a solid 90fps

Quote from Matrixi :

I got an email aswell after ordering

oh dear
still no email here
if i get my shipping date pushed back to whenever because they are unable to get their website working properly im gonna be annoyed

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :

Got the email confirmation...

now you got me worried... still havent received anything

same ballpark as the dk2 my ass
still ordered though... in for a penny in for a pound i guess

well that is i think i ordered one
it gave me errors most of the time
the order shows up in my account but no price estimate at all
and i still havent received an email confirmation

clearly the facebook money and web expertise at play here

Quote from Scawen :

You can. WE1X + custom start grid.

but that wouldnt give me the kart track minimap that you can actually see stuff on

could we please get the car restrictions removed from the karting tracks?
i can drive an f1 on a rallycross track but i cant on a karting track... why?

scawen any chance we might get a "no suspension damage" mode for this sort of thing
there a huge potential there for some trackmania type crazyness combined with good physics

Quote from skswat :

Is there some date when you expect to release something we all waiting for? (Scirocco, tyre physics...)

I know the Scirocco is held up as the holy grail of cars by many people in the LFS community, but it's really just another front wheel drive car, although a nice sporty one.

its not about the car itself its about what it symbolises in terms of lfs development pace

longer video on it

speaking of oculus
when will virtual rc get support... well i guess whenever the res is high enough for cars to be mroe than 1 pixel but still i think that could be neat

personally i would have to think hard about buying any hmd that has significantly lowere res than... lets say 4k

looks a bit like oculus are dangling their feet until samsung gets their 4k note displays under control and nvidia gets vr sli working

considering it seems to idle fine for the most part id guess its some sensor error

but at least the first issue from the list is easy to check
get a spray can with some form of alcohol in it and spray it over the intake air pipes
if the revs go up youve found your leak

the correct way to fix the too many draw calls for objects problem:

because theres nothing more mind numbingly boring than driving the autobahn

Quote from Keling :

Don't have a Rift. What is the problem with extended mode in AC?

it was coded by kunos

cant speak for dual monitors but with a single 1080 screen it works much better than extrended for me now

Quote from Matrixi :

Sad bit of news. Direct mode and DX10 has always been a massive headache for me when working with Unity. Direct mode also really hates multiple monitors, which makes it a complete pain in the arse to use.

in recent sdks direct mode has been brilliant
you dont need some streaming app to mirror it on your screen it usually works flawlessly and the december nvidia driver doesnt completely **** it up like it does for extended mode

Quote :

Extended mode and DX9 has been nearly flawless and the easiest combo to get working properly.

extended mode can be genuinely horrific and allows you to get away with unbelievably stupid shit like assetto corsa does
i mean i guess i shouldnt be surprised that kunos half assed something in the game but still anything that forces developers to either implement the rift perfectly or not at all would be highly appreciated

Quote from Boris Lozac :

Btw, don't know how i ever drove any other way. Turned off the virtual wheel, set up the FOV and monitor position so the gauges are behind my real wheel, it's like i'm in the damn car.. Immersion over 9000.

pffff get a rift you dirty real reality peasant

Quote from Boris Lozac :

I am just annoyed at all this hype surrounding bad movies, and after a few months people finally realise they were fooled..

i like how you seem completely oblivious to the irony of you post
