Judging from the pic, yes. Also they made the eye piece vertically wider.

Nice move, now itās more clear that we can use HTC Viveās spare parts. No kidding, I love standards, Iām using an HTC Vive VRCover from day one and Iām very satisfied, now with the same nose part is just perfect

Thank you very much for the update, Dallas!
Will you supply new mask bracket to KS backers?
Is the old mask bracket is compartible with the new face foam?
Will there be different thikness face foams?

Thanks for the update, but I must say that it is disappointing to hear news of a new cloth strap with no update on the rigid audiostrap that was promised as part of the kickstarter. I do hope that news of that is coming very soon

Indeed!
Whilst I very much appreciate designs and specs being iterated and improved on a continuous basis (two thumbs up on that, guys!), the fact that time is being spent on this soft strap update, can only mean that the rigid one will forever be an optional accessory, rather than replacing the soft āstopgap solutionā on all new units going forward, which is unfortunate.
Kind of curious how the new cowl/bracket will turn out for everybody - more room is always nice, but some of us were already way too far away from the lenses with the old one, and a deeper one will also shift the weight of the HMD forward (also curious how far the corrective lens frames and eye-tracking inserts will āforceā us out, away from the optimal sweet spot, on the z axis).
One can hope an assortment of pad thicknesses may help deal with these matters, but frankly; The question of whether a canted construction wasnāt always very likely to outright require a mechanism for adjusting eye relief, along with the IPD dial, was raised a good while before product was finally beginning to ship.
I donāt know - a comprehensive set of different rigid cowls to swap between could be a good sturdy solution for fitting to different face shapes, without needing to add any mechanical solution that adds weight, bulk, and points of failure, but just how many variants would one need (EDIT: ā¦taking into account not only face width, and eye depth, but also difference in prominence between brow and cheeks causing HMD tilt)ā¦

Itās a joke or not OK for the nose pad cool and important but we need a real face cushion who can stay with the headset and not scratch all of time and real headstrap for me the headstrap is less important than nose pad and face cushion more efficient and without lens passage for more efficience.

Thanks for the answer, but you could said that in all emails that i sent to you. And supposedly i was dealing this with @Sean.Huang . but after some emails I didnāt receive any more answers.
What its soft copy of delivery invoice? i sent you the headset and sent you a photo of the invoice in email months ago. @Sean.Huang
Anyway i will create a ticket at the help desk . but its possible to use this money and add to the 100$ to buy the mask bracket and nose pad?
thanks
Why has a new cloth strap been developed? Why not just focus on the rigid / audio strap?
Anyway, who will be getting these parts included in their original purchase exactly? I am a day one pre order buyer. I believe we were promised some of this stuff too right?

Me too. Iām pretty sure we were āonlyā promised the rigid headstrap (thereās a forum post about it somewhere) and three pieces of software.

What about the 3 pieces of content, prescription inserts, DAS, fans, eye tracking?
While Iām glad you are showing faces foams (of course with no clear time frame) this company continues to BS backers with no real info on these stretch goals. We will be lucky if we ever get these.

Thatās all well and nice!
Has the case of the Pimax finally been improved?
The case has top priority !!!
Every really EVERY case gets small cracks!
Itās absolutely sickening! I got three Pimax 5k, every Pimax has cracks! The body is and remains scrap if they do not change it!
The material of the case is VERY VERY BAD!
Iām very angry because I paid Pimax for about $ 1300 and I get a pimax with cracks! That is not axeptabel!
You have to improve the case! The technique is good, but the body is bad! There are even cracks in the front!
What about the controllers?
What about the Leap Motion Module?
Dear Pimax Team
THAT DOES NOT WORK LIKE THIS!

Sry but Cloth Headstrap feel like the last thing you should put any time in, 1 controllers, 2 Lighthouses, 3 DAS prefly 2 version one cheaper like HTC DAS and a DAS+ thats more like Valve Index with open ear headphones that then will be more expensive, 4 Wirless headset.

Glad to hear that backers will see those things eventually.
Iām especially glad to see the face mask improvement, not only for the VR frame insert, but also for the eye tracking modules (I was already forced to put contact lenses to play if I didnāt want my glasses to scratch the headset lenses).
Thanks for the news.
