We currently teach Alice 3 and hope to take advantage of the new VR integration feature compatible with Oculus. Any help regarding Oculus Rift vs Rift S and computer suggestions would be greatly appreciated. On the Oculus website it indicates that neither of these are available and the suggested computers are no longer supported??? I wondered if any of you are successfully using this feature and with what equipment, if so.
