Condor2 with Oculus Rift
Condor2 with Oculus Rift
Hi,
I just got Condor2 and was setting it up for the first time with an Oculus Rift.
When I load Condor2 and set it to VR in video options I get this pop-up - “Error initializing Direct3D. Check setup—>Video option. For further details, please read Condor Manual about setting up your hardware”
I am pretty sure my Oculus Rift hardware is setup okay with my computer because I also have X-Plane 11 and it runs just fine in VR with the Oculus Rift. Also the Condor2 initial screen shows up in the Oculus Rift.
My Condor2 also runs fine when not on VR.
Help. Any suggestions?
Thanks for you help,
Sam

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
So did you read the manual section on setting up for Rift as it suggests ?
I can't answer your question other than I got it too first time and its something minor - like switching of vertical sync or something ?
Maybe it was ensuring I had resolution set that was compatible with the monitor that the Rift view was being mirrored to ?
Make sure your drivers for GPU are up to date too.
Let everyone know how you go .

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
This error occurs if you do not have your oculus program started.
once this one is on the way, then starts condor.

Mas,
Thank you for your suggestions.
So you got the got same pop-up when you first started?
I looked over the manual. Not really much in the VR section?
I switched and tried changing everything on the Graphics/VR pages. Including the resolution.
I updated the driver and even reloaded Condor 2.
Again, it is working just fine with X-Plane 11.
Still no luck?

cvvs,
Thanks for your help.
I have tried starting up Condor2/Oculus in three different ways:
- Condor2 first then Oculus.
- Oculus first then Condor2.
- Oculus first then starting Condor2 "in" the Oculus home page.
Still no luck?

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
Try reinstalling the rift software. As I recall that solved the problem for others.
Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
I'm currently working with pimax, for cons I'm waiting for a new laptop gamers either a razer blade or I will reconnect my glasses occulus, so if I have the problem, and I've had several times, I'll tell you how I solve the problem.
I know it's very easy but I do not remember well.
I come back to you

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
the video error is displayed when your occulus program is not running.
Also if your occulus is well installed you can download the occulus program to this link
https://www.oculus.com/download_app/?id ... 6955407037
install the program creates an occulus account.
once that is done it should work.
there is 2 things to do to start your occulus.
start the application oculus then visualize well that your glasses is on.

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
I have exactly the same problem, I had oculus for some time, I use it with fsx and p3d, now I just purchased condor 2, I meade it work in the normal windowed mode and emulated full screen but when I tried on the oculus I always get the direct 3d erro.
no solution is found in this forum yet, my condor version is 2.0.7
yes you will say my card is not enough, but I have gtx 970, but I have to connect the oculus to this card, and the main monitor to the integrated one.
in any case if I disable the vr support it work fine on this integrated card
I ask the vendors to take cards in this issue it is a clear bug in the software.

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
It's not a bug. Right click condor and from the menu select the GTX970 as the graphics processor. Or change the default graphicscard via the nvidia control center. It has been discussed many times before here.rpmman wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2019 10:22 pmI have exactly the same problem, I had oculus for some time, I use it with fsx and p3d, now I just purchased condor 2, I meade it work in the normal windowed mode and emulated full screen but when I tried on the oculus I always get the direct 3d erro.

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
You might have more luck connecting the main screen to the graphics card the oculus is connected to. Not sure if Condor2 supports multiple cards unless in sli mode.
Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
Condor does not support multiple graphics cards.

Re: Condor2 with Oculus Rift
Thanks everyone for posts on this topic I need all the help I can get.
I'm having the same problem. Someone suggested "It's not a bug. Right click condor and from the menu select the GTX970...."
Right click where in Condor? I'm right clicking everywhere I can possible think of and not getting any menu
Thanks.
