Just a heads up, there's 70% of FSX Steam Edition and 55% off most addons for the US Holiday weekend.

Cheers mate, Just bought Assetto Corsa racing. Does anyone know how to get it working on the rift ? The forum is 90 plus pages long and cannot find the setup. Think Robert had it working ?

Hey Tony! I love driving in AC! Only thing is that the DK2 support I last used was running in extended mode and I have no idea what runtime it can use now. Sadly, my wheel is off to the side gathering dust. I was staying on the latest runtime as much as possible and updating FlyInside with new releases... "For beta testing purposes"... Yeah, that's it... I blame Dan. :D

But even if AC doesn't work now, they will probably get it working again as soon as Oculus hits 1.0. I know a number of houses have put VR on more of a back burner instead of spending their time chasing runtimes but the AC folks were working on it. It's still well worth a buy even if it doesn't run for now. It's beautiful! And I'll be looking to kick some English gentleman butt in the Lotus 49 at Monza '66 in the not too distant future... :lol:

I can't test anything for now to see if it still works on my rig (again, I blame Dan and you should too :lol: ), but it is an amazing experience!

Remember it is possible to switch between runtimes

Wow! I had no idea it was just a batch file. Some talented folks out there!

Thanks, Bruce!

No problem, I only discovered it relatively recently. It's great to be able to play Alien:Isolation and Elite:Dangerous again. Which reminds me, all the cool rift stuff has a colon in it's name. Maybe Dan should rename FlyInside?

Fly:Inside or FlyInside:FSX and FlyInside:Prepar3d ?

Hey Tony, best I can find is AC needs 0.6.0.1, Nvidia 350.12, and since you are on Win 10, http://www.vrbites.com/tech-howto/run-o ... indows-10/

But I could be wrong, too. Anyone else know if you can use 0.7.0 or 0.8.0?
