Dream Theater VR (Oculus Rift) Demo
« on: December 01, 2014, 02:36:24 PM »
Hey there guys,

Some of you remember me from the last Tour as the guy who did the Illumination Theory Animation next to other videos. This time I did a little fun thing for myself (and perhaps you) the  fans of DT. I created a little DT VR Demo to test software/hardware limitations and I think it's a nice little Tech Demo. If you care to see more follow this link:

Hope you like it :)

If I still had my DK1 I'd be all over this! Things like this are why I'm really excited for the future of VR. Keep up the good work!  :tup

Very cool stuff, I love it!

Don't have Oculus, but checked out the regular version, and it's really cool. Makes me want to get back into 3D modeling, haha. Can't program worth crap though, so I wouldn't be able to make an actual functioning room like that.  :tup

@FieryWinds - There is a non Rift version to download as well ;) However, it's about 1000% cooler with the Rift (DK2)!

@TheGreatPretender - Thanks for checking it out! You should get back to 3d modeling! So much fun ;) As for making something functional... there are tools/plugins that can help with that.

By the way, great job on the Illumination Theory animations too, they were excellent! I don't remember if I told you that or not.

I knew Palmer (from the internet) before he was cool. This is of course insanely cool.
