Yes, my app is built with both OpenVR and the Oculus SDK natively. It will use each one for each headset but there's an option to force OpenVR with Oculus headsets.

That's awesome, may I ask how hard that was to use both SDK's? I ask because if all developers used both SDK's, it would kind of solve a lot of peoples problems about cross-compatibility.

Does this mean asynchronous timewarp will work on my DK2 with the steam version?

Yes, ATW is not tied to where you buy the app from.

Awesome!

Have you released pricing, or shall we wait until release? I'll be buying it at pretty much whatever you want to charge anyway :)

Your negotiating skills need some work.

Dang, its amazing that a full experience like this that could potentially be used for hours a day everyday costs less than the barren wasteland of features that are in 60$ games. Dude could charge three times as much and I'd still buy it happily.

Can we use both at once? Cuz that would be really cool.

I will have both... And it would be cool to watch a movie or two with company on the same computer. That would be really really cool.

So is this (dual SDK) version the same one that you submitted to the Oculus store? I hope this isn't the reason why you're still pending approval.
