jMonkeyVR: OpenVR + jMonkeyEngine

[phr00t]

jMonkeyEngine is a free, fully-featured free, open-source & cross-platform 3D engine. OpenVR, as we all know, is a cross-device virtual reality library. Combining the two gives us all the tools to make VR experiences without limitations.

jMonkeyVR recently implemented VR instancing, which can complete a VR scene in one pass. Shadows, ambient occlusion & other effects work quickly with no additional passes required over non-VR use.

This library can automatically handle GUI elements (and the mouse) infront of your view.

You can develop for both VR & non-VR with this library. If a SteamVR device is detected, it will enable all of the desired VR options.

I'm working on 5089 with this library, and currently Spermination & 4089 use it.
