[Suggestions requested: Retain legacy DirectX 9 engine, but add VR capabilities (Stop laughing!)]

Thanks so much for the direction.  I've been getting my feet wet with OpenVR and I am super excited about this project.  You saved me some time and probably some stress as well.

 

Thank you,

[Suggestions requested: Retain legacy DirectX 9 engine, but add VR capabilities (Stop laughing!)]

Virtual reality rocks.  Corporate reality really sucks, sometimes.  I've been tasked with taking a large application from 2014 that uses a proprietary third party engine (Wait! It gets even better!) that was deprecated in 2011 and try to shoehorn VR into it as a proof of concept this fall.  I think I can trick the existing engine into rendering a stereo image pair to a couple framebuffers, but I'm wondering how to best (given the circumstances) get those images to the Vive for display.  And by best, I mean with as little latency as possible.  I'm sure I could sling them up as if I were playing a movie, but I fear that will not give a good experience.

Thank you for your patience.  I realize this is a goofy question, but I am hoping someone has a bit of guidance on how to approach this problem before I go piss away the next few weeks going in the wrong direction.

Thank you,
JNU
