An amazing Virtual Reality mod was created last year that worked great with the Oculus Rift that hooked into the app to provide a full VR experience when playing. I am pretty sure Farsight hired this guy to develop and code their VR version of TPA as he has been mum and released zero updates since posting his VR code. It worked great when it was released and gave you a great idea of the potential of VR with TPA.Check it out the discussion here on pinside - <a href="https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/pinball-vrcade" target="_blank">https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/pinball-vrcade</a>Video of Pinball VRCade in action - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaB5Y4kxVJg&feature=youtu.be&autoplay=1&rel=0" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaB5Y4kxVJg&feature=youtu.be&autoplay=1&rel=0</a>"Pinball VRcade supports Oculus Rift DK2 positional tracking so that you can actually walk around the cabinet, lean over to examine the back playfield, and look up to watch things on the DMD. It's almost like being at a real table.The patch works by hooking the graphics calls made by Pinball Arcade and inserting extra operations to take control of the camera and enable stereo support. The patch doesn't contain any code from Pinball Arcade itself - it simply intercepts graphics calls and re-translates them to a stereo render, similar to products like vorpx, but specifically tuned for Pinball Arcade. I've released the source code into the public domain, so feel free to hack on it!"<a href="https://github.com/cbdillon/PinballVRcade/wiki" target="_blank">https://github.com/cbdillon/PinballVRcade/wiki</a></blockquote>
