Hi I'm trying to use oculus rift dk2 on a windows 7 system. I was finally able to use the glasses with the Oculus Legacy Runtime for Windows found in this page. https://developer.oculus.com/downloads/package/oculus-runtime-for-windows/ The glasses get detected and I can play the "show demo scene" on the oculus configuration utility, and it plays great. But I can't seem to figure out how to play a game with them, or watch a movie or something else. How do I get the game image to the glasses?
Hi The only thing I have installed is the Oculus Legacy Runtime for Windows. But I'd like to run games from origin or steam. What do I have do install to do that?
Last I checked my old one was still working with Steam VR. You just need to install Steam VR, about the only other software I can think of that supports the DK2 was Vorpx. It converts many standard 2D games to full VR. You would have to write Ralph at support for an older version that supports Win 7 and DK2 and you will have to block it from updating. Other than those two options, viewing that demo scene with the desk is about all it can do. I would do a search for " VR apps with DK2 support" or something.
