HTC Vive Support?

[Guest Eddster]

Was wondering if anyone has tried 3DX with the Vive. Does it work? How is the experience? Will there be Vive support in the near future?

 

Thanks.

Hi Eddster,

 

Great questions.

 

The game in it's current state isn't natively compatible with Vive, it is only compatible with the Oculus Rift DK 1.

 

But a post was made by admin Gizmo a long time ago saying when Oculus release their Consumer version of the Rift they will update the VR support in the game to support the Consumer Rift. But this was before Valve announced their Vive. But I wouldn't see why it wouldn't be possible to bring support for Vive as well. But I don't think we'll see it until Unity 5. As one of the updates perhaps in the Beta period maybe? But I'd love to see it be supported.

Awesome, thanks Ash. I get mine in a couple of days. I may have to see for myself if it does work!

Hi! Our game supports Oculus Rift DK 1 now. Supprot for Consumer Rift and DK 2 will be added in the future. Vive support is not planned yet, sorry.

I have also heard, that some people have managed to get Oculus exclusive Games to work on the Vive as their framework is apparently very similar, so if that is the case I don't think Vive support will be too difficult to implement after Oculus Support.
