VR coming to everyone in Sim Update #2

[MarcG 2,978]

So for us non-testers we'll get it in the December Sim Update, according to the Live Stream this will be for all HMDs not solely WMR (Good news all round). Apparently the feedback from testers has been so good they just want to release it too us, lovely

Awesome!  That's exciting news.  And my G2 is coming today.  Good times ahead my friend.

Looking forward to it.  I don't really have a good screen, only VR, for my simming so have been waiting to fly msfs2020.

    I did try it the other day with opentrack and virtual desktop.  Looks much better watching peoples screen recordings than it actually is ding it this way.

Great news. I just hope my G2 will have arrived by then. I ordered in early August and still have no delivery date🙄

I saw a couple 3090 available on Newegg.ca for 3250 and 3700 Cdn today but did not bite as too expensive still, RIPPPOFF

Do we know the date of the December sim update release?

Yesterday I got my new HP Reverb G2 to work with my Valve Index controllers so this should be fun.

I wanna give kudos to all of the VR folks here who have been super vocal and have fought the good fight for December 22 to happen!

Victory is ours!!!!!!

December 22 then? OK, a week or two's time to see if RTX prices ease a little and then I'll have to pay whatever it takes.

fair supply of 3090's and 3070's here in Aus, just no 3080's (which I'd like to buy)

So I'll be able to use my old Oculus Rift? It'll be interesting to see whether my specs can cope (i5 6600, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1060 6GB). I suspect, realistically, it's going to need a new headset and an upgraded PC. The audio's gone on my Oculus anyway - probably a loose connection.

Definitely time to upgrade that hardware🍻
