Hi RJK! I need your help, it’s a question about other game. I’m playing Battlefield V but since the last update it works bad, the sensation is when I turn my head the stage jump a few and it’s very uncomfortable, do you know what happen? Could I return to Vorpx 19.2.2 instead 19.2.3? Thank you very much!

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (G3D)

Probably still my favorite Battlefield game. G3D is looking good here, shadows included. Weapon placement is not perfect, but I’m happy with the way this game looks in VR. FOV is adjustable in multiplayer but not singleplayer, so I’ve configured two separate profiles.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 MP (Multiplayer)

– ensure BFBC2Game.exe is assigned in vorpX config app
– FOV setup open: C:\Users\….\Documents\BFBC2… settings.ini
Find and change value to:
Fov=74
– use a 16:9 resolution (2560×1440)

*vorpX Shadow Treatment toggles minor shadow/skybox glitches
*Has moderate edge culling from FOV Enhancement
*Cinema best for 8K with pitool small fov
*Rift may prefer fullVR/immersive modes
*Click Search button to populate empty server browser

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 SP (Singleplayer)

– ensure BFBC2Game.exe is assigned in vorpX config app
– use a 21:9 resolution (3440×1440)

*Has considerable top and bottom edge culling due to extreme FOV Enhancement, though not so noticeable when looking straight ahead
*Immersive/fullVR modes best for Rift, Pimax8k should use cinema mode with Low pitool fov

Medal of Honor 2010 Multiplayer (G3D)

Got the Frostbite multiplayer working in G3D now. It’s not the popular favorite nor super active anymore, but you can still find a couple dozen playing at times. Beware though, these longtime players are lethal.

You’ll need to download a PunkBuster update from Evenbalance to connect to servers. Works online with vorpX.

– FOV setup open: Origin Games\Medal of Honor\Engine\Config…BaseEngine.ini
Find and change value to:
FOVAngle=90.000000
– launch with MoHMPGame.exe from game directory MP folder
– use a 16:9 resolution (2560×1440)

*set graphics to medium if getting crashes
*vorpX Shadow Treatment toggles friendly/objective HUD markers
*cinema mode best for Pimax8K, Rift may prefer immersive/fullVR modes
*See here for singleplayer profiles

This is what Multiplayer looks like in case you’ve forgotten:

As always, new profiles can be found on the vorpX cloud. Enjoy.

Novalogic had a deep sale of their titles last week so I picked up a few older mil-shooter favorites to try with vorpX. To my delight they each managed G3D and I was able to relive past moments now in vr. Figured I’d share profile settings for anyone else aching to get back behind a 50.

Each of the cloud profiles below default to cinema fullscreen (best for Pimax8K), but Rift may look better switching to fullVR mode. Enjoy!

Delta Force: Black Hawk Down (G3D)

You’ll need dgVoodoo2 for this classic, so search youtube for a brief tutorial on which files to add to a game’s directory to use it. Basically just copy and paste, nothing real fancy.

If you install Team Sabre dlc from steam, you’ll need to uninstall vanilla BHD, then “verify integrity” of Team Sabre files to fix load errors.

– use a 4:3 resolutions (1600×1200) for best FOV
(set hw3d_res1600x1200 = 1 in dfv.cfg of game directory)

*F6 toggles HUD
*Shadow Treatment to OFF hides water glitch

Delta Force: Xtreme 2 (G3D)

More of a run and gun style action. Neat night vision effect. No dgVoodoo.

– set shadow_quality = 0 in game.cfg found in game’s directory
– use a 4:3 resolution (1920×1440) for best FOV

*F6 cycles HUD display
*Shadow Treatment to OFF hides water glitch

Joint Operations: Combined Armes (G3D)

Tested on the Gold edition combining Typhoon Rising with Escalations expansion. This was the more hardcore alternative to Battlefield 2 multiplayer, though not so active anymore. There are several singleplayer missions to do though. Same engine/mechanics as the Delta Force games, but not as forgiving. The menu trailer used to always get me pumped. Good times…

– set shadow_quality = 0 in game.cfg found in game’s directory
– use a 4:3 resolution (1920×1440) for best FOV
– set Widescreen Display option to NO in game’s video options

*F6 cycles HUD display
*Shadow Treatment to OFF hides water glitch
*Online works, but the modded versions have not been tested

CPU? I thought this G3D is GPU thing, not a CPU. Also, more than 50%? Isnt 50% the absolute worst case not counting running out of VRAM?

If someone with VorpX could do a little test and report FPS that would be awesome, I want to play Quake Champions and Battlefields but Battlefields dont support G3D I think.

[dellrifter22]

I can’t seem to post links to the download page, but if you google “playfh2” you should find the free standalone version. There are alternative installers if you already have Battlefield 2 installed.

Launcher Settings:
– start game with FH2Launcher.exe
– set bot number (95 is max for even fight, 121 gives Allies the remainder)
– set bot skill (80% recommended)
– use a 16:9 resolution (3840×2160)
– set all graphics to high if you wish

Singleplayer Instant Battle = even teams conquest match
Co-op = choose team ratios for lopsided teams

Recommended Match Settings:
– in game, click Multiplayer>Create Local and choose Co-op mode
Time limit = 0
Max players = 1
Spawn time = 1 second
Ticket ratio = 999
Bot ratio = 100
Number of Bots = 48 (max possible for Axis team)
Bot difficulty = 80
Rounds per map = 1
Friendly fire = off
Auto balance = off

Choose your list of maps to play, Start Server, and enjoy!

Hints:
*hide hitmarkers and HUD in options, all color sliders to 0, all transperancy sliders to 100%, or console command “renderer.drawhud 0”
*Enter key to pull up spawn menu, C to toggle vehicle camera, F2 etc to switch seats
*freecam by closing the spawn menu X top right, push spacebar to jump into cam, then movement keys to control, shift to slow down
*tested on Pimax8k and RiftCV1, best played with fullscreen cinema/immersive

Forgotten Hope 2 (G3D)

This WW2 mod for Battlefield 2 is great and turned out better than I expected in VR. The online isn’t much active anymore, but the 30+ singleplayer/co-op maps with 120+ bots are still a lot of fun. Spawn in and join the bot squads on their attack waves, or zoom around with the freecam to watch the chaos unfold. Thanks to RJK for the base BF2 profile, now we have one tailored for FH2 also on the cloud.

Geometry 3D adds a second camera (one for each eye) to give stereo vision. This is why it looks most real and cost double performance.

Z-bufer 3D takes the flat image, calculates the Z distance of objects on screen, and modifies the image slightly different for each eye. it “cuts out” objects and moves them slightly off to one side, then fills the gaps will color prediction to blend it. This can be noticed as a slight transparent outline around objects nearest the screen (weapon/hand models), but the distant world will have compelling depth.

As long as your focus is more on the world in front of you, and not the gun you are holding, I say Z3D looks great in the Battlefield games (BF1 BFV).

BF2 has G3D, tried it just last night. Awesome too.

hello,

look at this site

http://rjkole.com/gamestuff/engines/

vorpx users can make their own profiles and you can find these profiles in the cloud, many battlefield games work in G3D (according to this site).

g3d is like real VR experience, Z3D is more like nvidia 3D glasses experience (but it’s been a long time since i sold my 3D nvidia screen).

G3D is really impressive but you need a powerful computer to enjoy it, or reduce graphics tremendously and/or lower resolution.

Z3D is still great for third person games.

that being said, i played dishonored 2 in Z3D and i had a blast, still very immersive.

[Battlefield player]

G3D is half the fps and much less games allow it. I never used vorpX and I never switched between G3D and Z3D.

My only experience with VR is when I played Serious Sam VR for 10 minutes on Vive Pro, I am not sure if that was G3D or Z3D. I want to play Battlefield games and from one list I read, none of them support G3D.

How much better is G3D? Z3D to me sounds like fake inferior VR while G3D sounds like the real deal awesome experience, but I never tried it. Please tell me about G3D vs Z3D comparsion, also if you are BF player, how do you like the Battlefield games with Z3D.

@ RJK: official Frostbite profiles with G3D (vorpX 19.1.0): Battlefield 3/4, SW:Battlefront II (2017), Need for Speed Rivals, Mass Effect Andromeda.

The rest of the official Frostbite profiles will follow shortly.

BTW: If you don’t want to risk any of your profiles becoming incompatible for other users, I strongly urge you to update to 19.1.0. While great care is taken to ensure profile backwards compatibility, I can’t guarantee it 100% this time unfortunately. The vast majority will still work fine, but A LOT has changed behind the scenes. So there might be a few edge cases where 19.1.0 behaves differently with older profiles.

[dellrifter22]

You can change between cinema mode and fullscreen at any time with the vorpX Delete key menu, but if a game defaults in cinema mode it is like that for good reasons. You can try full mode in Grid, but it might look too zoomed in for your comfort. There are distance sliders on the image page for you to adjust if you want.

If you by some chance checkmarked the “Dont optimize game settings” in your vorpX config app, DirectVR functions won’t be available in game. Not all games have DirectVR, but I believe RE7 does.

Make sure you aren’t running Battlefield V in dx12, vorpX dosn’t work with 12.

If you still get load crash with dx11, just wait for the vorpX update due this weekend. It has planned Frostbite 3 integration, which might possibly include a new profile for Battlefield V. Just speculating, but we’ll see in a couple days.

I bought this Vorpx yesterday and can’t seem to make it work properly, of the 3 games I’ve tried I haven’t come up with great results.
I tried Grid and it looked like a cinema screen in front of me and Resident Evil 7 looks like there is a hand in front of me and a silhouette of a cut out hand next to it and I also tried Battlefront V from a profile I found on Cloud and I started Battlefront V and the game wouldn’t load properly and just crashed and I also tried what was suggested of using the Battlefield 1 profile and still it crashed and went back to the Oculus menu screen.
Is there something I’m doing wrong because right now the experience I’m having with this app really isn’t justifying the price I paid for it, if there are other settings I’m not using they don’t seem to be listed anywhere like a compatibility help topic for every game and the settings you should use, I have used search in topics but the information given was for Resident Evil 7 which a user said usedcamera ht modifier to hide the hideous gun aiming hands and I’ve no idea what that even means and also another user saying that you boot the game, open the in-game VorpX setttings, and click on the DirectVR option and I checked and there is no DirectVR option to click on in the Vorpx menu.
Also suggested by another user to try the Battlefield 1 profile for Battlefield V and that didn’t work either.
I’m lost here and thinking that I’ve really wasted my money.

I grabbed Prey over Christmas to be ready :) . I’m also excited to try the new Battlefront/Battlefield games in Geometry.

Maybe only Z3D, but Ralf said he might have Mafia 3 working soon too. Surely it’s not as bad as people say. Mafia 2 was great!

[dellrifter22]

I’ve wondered about something similar for games like Battlefield/Battlefront, Farcrys, Medal of Honor etc, when vehicle FOV is often lower than on foot. Or when riding a horse in Witcher 3. Being able to toggle a secondary set of values might help to improve this.

It could also help for switching between fullVR and cinema modes, as I’ve found they each need their own changes to 3D strength, depth weighting, and FOV adjustment to look similar.

And it could be useful for simple A B testing while creating new profiles.

Maybe the vorpX menu box could change color to signify “Alternative Config Set Active” to help avoid confusion to witch is currently being used/changed.

Neat ideas razer, thanks. I imagine this will fall into the “nice to have” list, but we’ll see. There’s still more room on that notepad, right Ralf? :)

If you want to see something epic, give these a try:

Total War: Napoleon (G3D)

This turned out as good as I could have hoped – with full G3D and working shadows. It all looks great, especially when you zoom down to ground level and watch the melee charge chaos!

I also had fun scaling down the battlefield with heavy 3D separation, making the formations really pop, and give the appearance of a miniature toy set. But you’ve never played with your toy soldiers quite like this before 😁.

So I’ve uploaded an additional Miniatures version to try. FullVR mode probably offers the best 3D, but cinema is default for practical reasons. See which you prefer.

– use a 16:9 resolution (1920×1080)
– set Shader Model to High 3.0 in game

Total War: Empire (G3D)

This one worked the same with a few adjustments. Looks and plays identical. It too has a Miniatures option – kinda neat to see the model ships. You can make all pieces as small as you want by increasing the 3D separation strength.

– use a 16:9 resolution (1920×1080)
– set Shader Model to High 3.0 in game

Your first battle may open without a mouse cursor. Alt+Tab out and back should fix it and any other artifacts. If not, disable “pointer trails” in you Mouse Properties options. This applies to both games. Enjoy!

*G3D Shadow Treatment to OFF will hide the Orders HUD
*Tested on Definitive Editions, but not for multiplayer
