Last thought?
Cyber: I know nothing is official but if you can pass along an idea.. We can get replacement cables if one is defective, yes? If Oculus sold a 20-25' replacement cable at a substantial markup (think Monster-Cable prices), I bet folk…

This has been a very helpful thread and I'm glad you posted it.
I'm stuck at just a 3' extension on mine (nothing further works) but that's good enough! It covers the distance from my tower to my play space. Without that 3' I wo…
Only complaint, and unfortunately this is a deal breaker: It's using the Windows 10 / Tablet code path rather than the Java path.
Don't get me wrong I hate Java, but until there is no feature parity between the versions. The Windows 10 / Tablet v…
I understand totally.
Watch and see what happens to this topic (extension cables) when the Touch ships though. I suspect it's going to blow up. I can't fathom why they didn't use a longer cord nor understand why this is such a difficult thing. A…
Ok, just swinging back through this thread with an update.
I got the highest end but shortest HDMI cable I could and it works. It's a 3 foot cable matters cable. 4K, ARC support all that and it's stable. No abnormalities, no disconnect/reconnect…
The repeater comes with a power brick you plug into the wall.
No luck here. I haven't found any solution that works for me, including the ones that work for others. If I extend the HDMI I get either a black screen or an intermittent black screen.
Wouldn't play it outside VR.
It's not really a MOBA. You have one "super unit" you control and there is creep but that's about it.
It's not really an RTS. You capture bases and generate units but you have only the simplest control over …
Yeah, the HDMI connector is what I try. Only did the DP thinking maybe I was getting a weak signal from the HDMI.
No issues with any other display but the Rift. I think I have one that's functional but otherwise shitty. (and I'm going to end up …
Just tried that radioshack repeater from Amazon, no dice.
It works initially then after a few minutes I get a blink of black screen. Then another, then a few more rapidly, then one time it goes black and doesn't come back.
So Where I'm at:

Picked up Project Cars and Airmech. Delighted with both.
Also grabbed Quake, https://forums.oculus.com/community/discussion/37132/quake-updated-for-1-4-cv1 which is delicious. Already had No Limits 2, but the menus are so broken it gets left unla…
Oh man, that's nice.
Any way to get a crosshair? "Crosshair 1" in the console doesn't seem to work.
Edit: LOL, ok so basically a bunch of badass crosshair options through the in game menu. Derp.
GAH, help!
I've been lurking on this for months. I have my CV1 now. The share.oculus.com website is now bunk and redirects. I downloaded from mediafire but It doesn't work.
On launch it displays a dual view window on my main monitor. Nothing …

OK, Circling back. No dice. Tried both in the two pack. Audio works, black video.
I'm starting to get a bit panicked here. In my setup the PC is a few feet back from the play space. Unless I can get some distance going, Touch/r…
I think it's going to track pretty damned fast as does the Vive/lighthouse.
You're not going to get Forest Gump speed table tennis going though. Probably more similar to Kinect Sports (Table tennis in that remains an awesome gaming experience..I r…
1. How and when did you first hear about 360° videos?
News article covering the hardware used to film them.
2. How would you describe 360° videos?
A bit of a novelty.
3. Where and when did you first view a 360° video?
Don't recall, possibly faceb…
Confirmed, the above does NOT work.
Best results so far though: It works for a little while blinks black for a sec and comes back. It's ultimately not usable though. The Rift keeps "unplugging/replugging".
Very frustrating. My comput…
Just tried several HDMI cables with a Female-to-Female connector. No dice.
I have a 3' one that showed distorted video (lots of green pixels).
All other HDMI cables I tried showed no video at all. I did like 4 of them.
I've got an order in for i…
Use the telnet client (add the windows component). Confirm a TCP connection to graph.oculus.com fails, then confirm you can hit a known good address.
From a command line:
telnet graph.oculus.com 443
telnet www.google.com 443
Failure will tell you …
In pitch black I can faintly see it. Slightly stronger near the top of view.
If there is anything, even some stars in a starfield, it disappears or I'm unable to see it.
