Hello,

I am making a small demo for use with the oculus rift. I had someone else try it out and they said that it didnt show up in rift/rift mode (pressing alt-enter). How can I enable the ability to enter rift mode?

Thanks.

They are going to need the oculus plug-in installed.

here is a simple level blueprint that I found in another thread (though cannot locate now) that does a lot of the command line you need for the rift.
