GMod-Oculus

Very basic Oculus Rift support for Garry's Mod. In case lauching it with -vr just freezes or crashes your GMod application.

Tested on OS X 10.9, Oculus SDK 0.5.0.1-beta, a Rift DK1 and Garry's Mod 13.

Usage

You need the Oculus SDK 0.4 or later installed to /opt/LibOVR, than use CMake to configure and compile the program. Upon make install all dependencies will be put in your local Steam installation.

Connect the Oculus Rift and start a new game. In your Spawn Menu choose Post Process and under Effects activate Oculus Rift Support. You can recenter the sensor on the current player's view by clicking Reset Orientation.
