    @Shige Tanaka,
    Left mouse click makes it full screen.
    How were you able to get it to mess up in the right pic?

    I'll take a peak at it @Shige Tanaka!
    Probably something simple in the gui settings...

    @Leandro Kemp,
    It has been reported that 360 videos do work.
    I have no idea if they work in 3D thou.
    Can you try to play one with the Video Ride Player and let us know?

    Hello friends. I downloaded the latest version of simtools. And it's in demo version. That is why when I want to load the plugins I get a poster that says "files installed! - Installation Complete" But once I enter "Game Manaller" the plugin has not been installed. Is it because I have to buy the license or it is a problem of my computer? From already thank you very much. Greetings to all!!

    Hola amigos. He descargado la ultima version de simtools. Y esta en version demo. Sera por eso que cuando quiero cargar los plugin me aparece un cartel que dice "files installed! - Installation Complete" Pero una vez que ingreso a "Game Manaller" el plugin no se ha instalado. Se debe a que tengo que comprar la licencia o es un problema de mi computadora?

    Hello, first I want to thank this community for providing such amazing tool that work out of the box.

    In this thread I saw people using this video player with VR. I have an HTC Vive, could it be possible to play from this video player to my HTC Vive ?

    Unrelated, but if I am working on a custom simulation for non-DIY simulator (Atomic A3), but my intent is just academic research, can I potentially request a DIY license?

    Can anybody verify that this works for 360 videos in Oculus Rift?

    @VinS101,
    Why not try to play a 360 vid with the Video Ride Player?
    I don't have a rift handy to test it out myself. or I would.
    Let me know how it goes buddy.

    I have been trying to play my 360 video with telemetry data embedded in my Rift, but no luck so far. Any idea on how to actually play it inside the Rift? I used Virtual Desktop to run VideoRidePlayer.exe, and made it fullscreen, but it's like 2d fullsceen, as opposed to VR fullscreen.

    I can easily play 360 videos (E.g mp4) on my Rift using Virtual Desktop or the native Oculus video player. Is there anyway I can play VideoRidePlayer.exe in VR mode?

    Much appreciated,
    Vin

    One "Hack" that I can think of is to play VideoRidePlayer.exe and play the mp4 file in "Virtual Desktop" mode at the same time. Is there anyway that I can run VideoRidePlayer.exe in the commandline with path to the file passed into it as an argument? If this is possible, I can simply write a batch script to run them both at the same time.

    Thanks,
    Vin

    We would probably need a VLC based Video Ride Player.
    I believe VLC plays 360 videos now.
    Something I could look into after I get all that's on my plate out the door.

    Do you think it's possible to play a video stream as well as receiving real-time motions?

    I would like to stream video + motions embedded on a RC car (or a drone) that I drive sitting in my motion rig :)

    @Wanegain
    I helped a guy do that.
    He had the math a bit wrong in the vid, but the link was defiantly there.


    And i bought and tested the electronics, and it seems quite fast.
    I even started a little app for it called RC Rider.
    With the idea to be able to add a module to any RC device and ride it.
    I mean, why would we not do this. :thumbs
