R.I.P Oculus Rift (Updated +2) (Patreon)

i have some bad news and good news , the bad news is my oculus rift has completely died , it wont even power on now at all , ive tried tinkering with it but i think it was just its time , it did me well as it was second hand from ebay , the rift was pretty battered when i got it from there to start with so it did pretty well , the good news is my friend has agreed to lend me the funds to get a valve index , problem is they are out of stock a lot and when i do manage to get one when they are in stock they take up to 8 weeks to arrive , im unable to animate in VAM without a VR headset , but i am still able to create scenes in desktop mode in the mean time . im thinking of solutions to aquire a temp VR headset like borrowing my friends but he obviously said no lol , now its up to you all if you want to stick around supporting me still while i wait to get my hands on a valve index as i wont be able to make anymore animations without a VR head set as VAM really requires one to do so , i will try to get my hands on some form of VR headset in the mean time so i can continue , but until then im unable to create animations , i have the funds ready to get a valve index the moment they come back in stock , so fingers crossed
i apologise to all my supporters for my bad luck slapping me in the face again putting me one step backwards but i will not give up on you ,
thank you all for understanding and R.I.P Oculus you shall be missed T.T
all the best

(Update) - i may have just gotten a cheap enough oculus rift S from ebay . if its legit and not a scam we are back in business :D
turns out it wasnt a scam and we just got ourselves a brand new Oculus Rift S from ebay for a total of £90 including postage and packaging , i panicked for a bit there as i really thought i wasnt going to animate until i got a Valve index in 8 weeks or so time , i told you i wouldnt give up on you , i spent all that night watching and bidding on VR heads sets trying to snipe one at a good price , it payed off , we are back in business <3 :D now back to creating this animation with destructible parts
