Thanks for mentioning that; I see there's an oculus plugin available. Might get that under the academic license :-)

Developer license here ;)

It's a monthly fee for the pro version but it's about a 2 yr bnreak even with just buying it at $199

If you're unfamiliar with the history, Prepar3d is an evolution (by Lockheed Martin) of the old FSX codebase - but they've updated it with multi-core support, DX11, etc. Most (but not all) FSX addons are compatible, and it gives better frames at MUCH better visual quality than FSX.

I would love to hear about that, if you don't mind following up. Seems like Prepar3d is my killer app for Occulus ..
