  • Simula

    Linux VR Desktop

  • Thanks for the shout-out :] It's true the Simula One is a work in progress, but we try to be transparent about our progress in the form of weekly blog updates.

    The Simula One's boards were recently assembled, so we're expecting review units within days or weeks.[1] Our software is also demoable on GitHub for HTC Vive & Valve Index platforms.[2]

  • reshade

    A generic post-processing injector for games and video software.

  • not needed to do this with my PS Eye camera because it works ok once you've tweaked the above software settings.

    You can create a more immersive experience by using a 3D display/projector and using reshade https://reshade.me/ (Just make sure to tick the 3d depth shader when installing). Now your flatscreen games are 3D with 6DOF headtracking.
