New Terrain for Holiday Demo
This week I made a new terrain object for the Holiday Demo. The new terrain is one 10000×10000 terrain object. I’m not sure why the terrain suddenly started allowing larger dimensions, but it seems to …
IPD and FOV in the Official Oculus Sample
Here’s a some screenshots of OculusWorldDemo, showing a bit of how the post-render, pre-warp shaders interact with FOV and IPD — and the larger system that the functions I’ve been hijacking are meant to be a part …

Finished Science Fest Demo
This week I finished the Science Fest demo. I added some more coins/trees, added some point lights and particle systems to the tunnel on the right side, added some point lights to the ring of …
Science Fest Mountain Demo
This week I made a new smaller mountain model for the Science Fest demo. I kept a few things from the larger mountain like some of the trees/coins and the main jump. The new layout …
Quick update, and a rift projection simulator

Rift: Modifying the Projection / FOV part 2

More Obstacles Added & Working in Cave
This week I added some more jumps and obstacles for the mountain. I added a ring of fire to jump through, a larger tunnel, more trees, some giant candy canes, turned the smaller tunnel into …
