Sounds good! I've changed my address here to another account, do you want me to switch it back to help track issues?

Shouldn't need to, I'd imagine there are plenty of people here using Gmail.

I'm still waiting on the lenses to arrive that I ordered from Amazon two weeks ago! Although, I don't have the entire headset printed yet either... I've been so fucking lazy this year, it's a wonder I haven't starved to death or something.

Anyone have an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive? I had a quick play with a Vive on Saturday at my uni reunion and it was awesome. Very immersive and easy to interact with things.
I think it was the Valve Labs they had running so I was shooting balls all cardboard boxes with a slingshot.
Only problem is now I want one

Have they sorted the motion sickness thing? I bought a 3dvisor Z800 (a loooooong time ago) and it struck me then that the motion sickness was possibly insurmountable.

I also had a go on the Vive on Saturday.
Tried several different games and different people experienced different levels of vertigo only on one game - Windlands. The rest of the time everyone was fine.

I can get nausea playing video games on my pc, especially if they have lots of running down corridors.

Ta both. It's an obstruction to take-up certainly, & possibly a deal breaker. All of this stuff is only prefatory fluff to AR, anyway. That will be a proper big thing.

apparently ginger ale is a good thing to have on hand for the nausea. Dunno if it still counts if you add booze.

I didn't experience any motion sickness or nausea at all when I was using it but it was only a short demo. Different people seem more susceptible to it and some games are better than others at preventing it.
My mum gets sick and headaches from watching 3D films so she'd probably suffer using one of these.
