Is this a 'me' problem, or have you dealt with this?


I just got my Rift (DK2) in Friday and gotta say, it is pretty freaking awesome! The ability to see depth with CGI is really crazy (Titans of Space anyone?).


Anyways, I mainly picked up a rift so that I could play Prepar3d with it, since I always wanted to be a pilot growing up, but due to a degenerative retinal disease, can't (FAA doesn't like blind pilots for some reason). Something I've noticed is that I have issues converging the images at first unless I have a simple scene to look at first, such as the config tool demo scene, and then switch to something more without moving the rift.


So my current method is queue up what I want to run in an explorer window or know the key-shortcut to launch it (like WIN+9 for the 9th taskbar icon). I then open the config tool, run the demo scene, give my eyes all of the 2-3 seconds they need to focus on the coke can (maybe adjust the rift if it wont focus) and then I'm good. Once I can see the can, I just ALT-F4 and then ALT-TAB/Enter or w/e to execute the other app, and I can see it fine. It takes all of 3 seconds usually, but without doing this in a simple scene first, my eyes just don't converge the image, and I can't focus on anything; keep seeing a black line and the image is torn.


So that's my question, is this a problem that others have too, or is it a 'me' problem.
