How To : Move Seats In Occulus Theater

[mrmenace]

Wow, So Im Not Sure if anyone else has stumbled upon this yet but if you have a gamepad paired while in the 1st 2 theater options, you can change your seat by pressing button 3 on the gamepad! in the first theater u can switch to any of the 6 seats, while the 2nd theater only allows from front, middle and rear, ENJOY! GUYS!!

Y button in Moga Pro Power is what you use to toggle your seat.

Somewhat changing the perspective and distance of the viewer.

You don't get stuck next to the guy checking his Twitter during the movie.

Same benefit as you'd get in a real theater. Some folks want to sit down front and some in back.

They really should add a similar feature to void cinema as I want to be closer to the screen, but without having to strain my neck.

You don't get stuck next to 'mitchellvii' talking about the screen door effect... lol

Ugh. I doubt moving away would be enough. Seems the type that would follow you around still rambling. My luck, I would have to leave for dumping my soda on "a paying customer"

i too hope they implement this

1. to be accessible even without controller (i.e. swipe up/down could be used) and
2. to be accessible in the void as well, so that every person can choose for himself how big he wants the screen to be. i do like the void, but it kind of bothers me that the screen is smaller than in the main cinema. sure it makes sense to not have the picture "attack" you too much, but on the other hand, theres movies that attempt to do just that, i.e. gravity.

so, this should be an easily accessible user setting in all theatres including the void, IMO. for some movies, id like to sit in the back of a cinema with some distance, i.e. TV series that generally tend to do more closeup than movies do. for others, i might want to watch them silly close in the void so that they almost fill up the entire FOV, maybe even a bit more than the cinema default does (that would be gravity )

So is this not achievable with just the touch pad? :/

EDIT: Just bought a controller, and it's much much better than swiping with the touchpad. Tried this in the cinema app and it works perfectly. I prefer the very back seat because I can see the whole screen without left or right.

Me and the wife want to get one, I think it's sad you can't join two and sit in the same virtual cinema... maybe in a future update.

Get them anyway! You can sit together on a couch and start the movie at the exact time and enjoy the show!!! Don't forget to hold hands and share a bowl of popcorn and pretend you are ghosts sitting on an empty movie theater :laugh::silly:

Why do you think Facebook bought Occ Rift? I can see voice coms mapped over the top so that you can sit around with your mates regardless of where they are, watching the same movie and pause and chat if you want to. Kinda cool.
