NOTE: This is the proper way to get F1 working on the Rift, there are hacks for F1 2012 using Oculus Overlay but that runs like crap.
This is what i used to get it working:
Verio Perception 1.5 Beta - http://www.vireio.com/
Latest Opentrack from Dirt2/3 thread, i.e. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/152 ... ntrack.zip ( kudos to mm0zct for that )
TrackIRFixer - http://naturalpointofview.blogspot.se/p ... fixer.html
Changes needed:
Modify the Verio profiles.xml to include:
<profile game_name="f1_2010" game_exe="F1_2010_game.exe" game_type="600" separation="0.00014" convergence="0" swap_eyes="false" yaw_multiplier="25" pitch_multiplier="25" roll_multiplier="1" />
<profile game_name="f1_2010" game_exe="F1_2010.exe" game_type="600" separation="0.00014" convergence="0" swap_eyes="false" yaw_multiplier="25" pitch_multiplier="25" roll_multiplier="1" />
Modify hardware_settings_config.xml, set <directx forcedx9="true" />
Copy hijackdll.dll, d3d9.dll, libfreespace.dll from the Verio folder into the F1 2010 game folder, i.e. where "F1_2010_game.exe" etc is. Note: if you end up with 4 images in Verio instead of 2, then remove those 3 dll's from the F1 2010 game folder and that will fix it.
NOW THE IMPORTANT PART:
Headtracking wont work for freetrack/opentrack by default due to naturalpoint being gimps( i.e. protecting trackir ).
Run TrackIrFixer
Run OpenTrack, make sure Tracker Source 1 is set to the Rift and 2 set to the Hydra, click settings for the Hydra and ensure only "Y" is checked. Click "Start" in Opentrack, point the rift( and optionally hydra straight forward and hit the "End" key to recenter everything ). Note: Do this in game if the rift or hydra drifts.
Run Verio, set verio to "Oculus Rift" and "No Tracking"
Launch F1 2010, should work perfectly.
Apologies if my explanation is crap, dont do this often, but i thought others might want to try a F1 game on the rift

Re: F1 2010 Working with Verio
Great guide! It's a shame I only have F1 2012. I'm waiting for VorpX drivers, since Ralf said he got F1 2012 working with his drivers.lmimmfn wrote:NOTE: This is the proper way to get F1 working on the Rift, there are hacks for F1 2012 using Oculus Overlay but that runs like crap.

What are your computer specs?

2x6970
i7 920@3.8Ghz
9Gig DDR3
It runs smooth for me, but i was only using 1 card( i.e. no crossfire ) as last i checked ATI driver updates and Codemasters game updates broke crossfire support for F1 2010. I didnt have time to run a benchmark last night( just got it working and went to bed lol ) but i assume it was 40-60FPS, default AA was at a stupid setting so must reduce it.
Incidentally( and not much use for you ), but F1 2011 should work too as it supports DX9 also.

Re: F1 2010 Working with Verio
Hmm, I'd like to look into this but I don't have F1 2010 personally, OpenTrack should be able to handle the TrackIR encryption by itself (it works fine with Dirt2,3 and GRiD). If it comes in the steam summer sale cheap I'll look into it.NOW THE IMPORTANT PART:

If i remember correctly the tracking works in F1 2012 too, so I don't know why it doesn't in 2010.
Also
rings some alarm bells that either I did not upload the correct version, or you have a stale one.click settings for the Hydra and ensure only "Y" is checked
I'll investigate and report back, I should do a release compiled against the new Oculus SDK anyway,

Re: F1 2010 Working with Verio
I couldnt get it working at all with OpenTrack( otherwise i would have stuck the info in your Dirt2/3 thread instead ), tried loads of different things, as soon as i used TrackIrFixer it worked perfectly. I read some stuff on the web that OpenTrack would work no problem for Dirt2/3 & Grid but not with F1 2010 without TrackIr fixer. Im also pretty sure tracking works in F1 2012 as i tried the hack with Oculus Overlay with that, ill double check.mm0zct wrote:Hmm, I'd like to look into this but I don't have F1 2010 personally, OpenTrack should be able to handle the TrackIR encryption by itself (it works fine with Dirt2,3 and GRiD).

Cheers of the info on the Hydra "Y" checked, ill remove all the opentrack stuff and use the latest one you posted and check the other axis.
Bring on the steam sales
Maybe its best to merge this thread with yours, i.e. update the title of yours with F1 2010 and put the TrackIrFixer info there( until someone reports on a way to just use Opentrack with it ).
