Hi
Far Cry 4 will not launch… I have deactivated antivirus. Clicked the “always launch upplay in OFFLINE mode”, the ingame overlay is deactivated as well. Game crashes without even loading when vorpx is active. Note: Battlefield1 is launching with Vorpx, so this seems to be a problem specific to Far Cry 4. Any other tweak that I might be missing for Far Cry 4?
Regarding Battlefield 1… is 3d stereoscopic available with HTC Vive? I would like to experiment depth in this game.
Thanks a lot for your support!

step 1
Open Vorpx

Step 2
click “cloud profiles” on left

step 3
type in name of game “Battlefield 1” under the “Game/App” field (note: if you havn’t logged in with a user name you will have to make this now before it loads in online profiles)

step 4
select the one by piebald3 (his name will be in brackets after name of game)

step 5
click “import profile” button

I have managed to get a really solid Battlefield 1 setup going so far, thought I would share it if people are looking at that game.

step 1
download online profile by “piebald3”

step 2
adjust in game FOV to it’s max settings

step 3
tweak values of:
GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaHeight as needed
and
GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaWidth as needed
in “PROFSAVE_profile” found in C:\Users\(your user name)\Documents\Battlefield 1\settings
(note this setting is optional but if you lower the value below 1 this brings the hud elements into view like the minimap.. which is useful)

step 4
adjust physical distance to face of lens on actual headset and adjust vorpx FOV and image zoom settings until comfortable

I’ve experienced a couple of games on Pimax 4K powered by VorpX. I’ve bought VorpX a couple of weeks ago but I’m already experienced in VR and 3D (anaglyph 3D, cross-eyed, parallel eyed, Tridef 3D, iZ3D, Nvidia 3D TV Play, Nvidia 3D Vision, helixmod, Vireio Perception). Configuring VorpX was pretty easy. No help needed.

Games played on Pimax 4K + VorpX + modifications like FOV, DSR, no GUI, latency optimizations:

– Alien Isolation
– Battlefield 3
– Bioshock Infinite
– GTA 5
– Skyrim Original
– Skyrim Special Edition (cloned Fallout 4 profile)

Depending on the game-/vorpX compatibility geometry 3D or z-adaptive.

Disadvantge:
– lil bit of ghosting while moving the head (sometimes not visible, depends on the scene)
– 60hz instead of 90hz (not recommended for fast motion games)
– IPD adjustment is softwarewise instead of hardwarewise
– software crashes sometimes while initial IPD adjustment (reboot needed)

Advantage:
– Almost no screen door effect. In most cases absolutely no screen door effect. That’s WOW!!!
(There is a SDE comparision on YouTube between Gear VR 2.5K and Pimax 4K)
– The image is absolutely fantastic (2.5K 1440p and 4K 2160p in-game resolution powered by Nvidia DSR supersampling – HDMI 1.4b 60hz). Provided you found the right IPD settings for your eyes and the device is not faulty. Wrong IPD settings = looks like cross eyed / blurry.
– Even 2K 1080p looks great but I prefer at least 2.5K due to higher aliasing. Alien Isolation does not need high FPS so I played in 4K in-game resolution for superb graphics.
– The image looks not as good on my FullHD 27 inch monitor but almost!
– I’m able to read text easily.

Hi everyone!
I’m getting into this whole VorpX thing just right now, and i expected some issues with steam. :/
Maybe i am doing something wrong, but all other games just working fine.
I have an Oculus Rift DK2, and all of the games that i downloaded via Oculus Store are working perfectly. Also when i’m playing games from Origin (like battlefield 4, Hardline) are working very good with VorpX. And also (shamely) i have pirated games like Tomb Raider, also this works fine. But when i tried to play some games from Steam like Counter Strike, or Payday 2 didn’t want to be “connected” with VorpX, this means that the game just showed up on my monitor, and i could play it normaly, but not on my oculus rift. (For example balck ops 3 doesn’t even wanted to start…)
Do i have to start Steam VR or some other thing, or do i have to close something to get the things work? I want to make videos from it, how it works, and i am recording my videos with Nvidia’s “Shadow Play”, could this be a problem?
Thanks for the answers.:)

I do not know what happened – but nothing works any more without being able to tell you if and what I changed. Genuine Oculus supported games still work fine (Assetto Corsa, Projects Cars etc). As soon as I start VorpX Control and try to start Vorpx Control supported games it does not work any more:
Fallout 4: Image on just one eye.
Battlefield 4: Image on just one eye – picture is headfirst. Engaging virtual cinema brings normal image.
CS: Global Offensive: Black screen. Alt-Tabbing out and then into the game shortly shows sandwatch in oculus lower right.
CS: HL2 Engine: See CS: Global Offensive.

Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?

All right thanks,

Another thing about zoomed in issue which i have been trying to solve it for so long.

So far, Game menu is still extremely zoomed-in with full vr mode (Non-virtual cinema mode).

But During gameplay, it seems to work fine such as far cry 3, outlast and l4d2( not supported but able to tweak fov by console).

Other few multiplayer games such as battlefield 4 doesn’t seems to work when i set it in game setting optimizer. I don’t know about rift users, they seems to work judging from their youtube videos.

Really at the end of choices. Could use some help thanks. If all fails, i might consider reformatting. But again, that could be pointless, if nothing could change at all.

Sorry i meant Game Main Menu is extremely zoomed in. Gameplay seems to work fine for me in outlast. But can’t say for other games such as battlefield 4

[pamgpamg]

Hi ralf,

Just want to let you know i finally got it working with outlast. I don’t know how, but i read up some guide: disable steam overlay and desktop home threate and surprisingly it works. Values around 120 to 150 is comfortable for me. 160 or more is unbearable and screen starts to flip 180 deg upwards. Now the only problem is the game menu zoomed-in, is it intentional?

Gameplay inside outlast seems fine for me. Maybe full vr works for me afterall, just have to do some tweaking or stuff.

Game setting optimizer works by the way. But not sure for other games such as battlefield 4. This is the only game i got it first working with vorpX.

I quite confused with the extended mode and direct mode you talking about. Not sure what mode i am. But pretty sure i am in extended mode. Just got htc vive headset sorry newbie here :).

You can create copies of existing profiles on the local profiles page. To do that select an existing profile and then click the button labeled “Create a new profile based on this one”. Doing that with a random profile before you exit vorpX will suffice to save all settings to disk that you made before. You can safely remove the newly created copy again afterwards.

For Outlast the Game Optimizer should be able to handle FOV, Battlefield 4 only takes the ini setting into account in multiplayer. Single player FOV can not be changed unfortunately, Flawless Widescreen might help with single player.

Hi! thanks for the reply.

1)
Not sure what you meant by “performing any action that writes settings datebase to disk in the config app before closing vorpX.” Are you saying i have to edit the ini file or something directly in the folder? Is it located in the settings folder?

“Just creating a copy of a random exisiting profile and deleting it again afterwards will suffice.”
Hmm, i never encounter this before. The profile are you referring to local or cloud profile?.

I glad the issue will be fixed in the next version. Hopefully, because i facing issue such as in-game vorpx and game setting optimizer not saving at all. Is there anyway i can edit the file directly to prevent it from overwriting it?

2)
“A handful of games may overwrite those changes again if you change game options ingame afterwards, so ideally avoid adjusting video options in such cases after applying the Optimizer settings.”

For battlefield 4, even through i change FOV in-game. It doesn’t work at all. It still zoomed-in and unplayable. Back to the point 1 i just made, i couldn’t adjust the fov higher or lower in game settings optimizer due to the setting-reset issue.

“For games without the option to adjust the FOV with the Optimizer you either have to use the workarounds vorpX provides, edit ini files manually or use an external tool.”

Okay thanks, some games such as outlast won’t allow you to adjust fov. So i guess i have to tweak it by ini file. The only problem is the game setting optimizer, the fov doesn’t work, maybe it being overwritten or something.

3) “Unsupported games: Try to create a new profile based on an existing one in the config app (Local Profiles page) for games that vorpX does not support.”

I notice games boot up with vorpX if they run in dx9. Games with dx10, dx11 will not work at all and instead will display on your monitor instead of the hmd. Need some htc vive users to confirm it?

Thanks for the reply.

[Ralf]

Battlefield 4 only supports FOV adjustment int multiplayer for some weird reason. Single player mode stays unaffected from any changes made to the .ini file unfortunately. With a bit of luck Flawless Widescreen can help by hacking into the game’s memory.

What you can do in regard to FOV heavily varies from game to game. While for quite a few games the Game Optimizer works well, for others you may have to use an extarnal tool like the one linked above.

Hi everyone,

I’m a htc vive user here and facing issues with vorpX.

1) Settings not saved: I don’t know if this only happens to me or not. But i noticed my in-game vorpX menu is not saved at all. For example, i change to virtual camera mode and next time i boot up my game again. it revert back to non-virtual camera mode.
Not only this, i face issues in game setting optimizer as well. I can’t seem to change the fov as well (default:120) and will keep reverting back to default as well even through i click optimize settings and apply & close, no effect.

2) Zoomed in issue: This is common to newbies, i fully aware i have to set the fov higher or something or i will face this issue. But however it doesn’t help at all. I set fov to 120 or maybe higher in game setting optimizer and nothing have changed, not only that it will keep reverting to default 120 as i mentioned in point 1. All games such as battlefield 4 and outlast are affected.

3) Game compatibility issue: i don’t know if i the only one who face this. But i noticed games that ran higher than dx9 will not work and won’t boot up with vorpX. They will display on your monitor instead of your HMD. For example, i change dx11 to dx9 settings in far cry 3 and surprisingly it booted up with vorpx. But for games such as team fortress 2 it doesn’t even start at all.

Please help, i have spent around 2 days or so but couldn’t get around this problem. I a newbie and have much to learn. The only solution so far i thought of is to reinstall but i fear that my key might not work again that have sent to me via email.

[pamgpamg]

Bump. Please help, i still having the zoomed in issue. Not only battlefield 4, but other games such as left 4 dead 2

[pamgpamg]

Hi everyone,

I recently brought vorpX. I ran into 2 issues when i first run the game.

1) The game is zoomed in extremely close to the screen. Yes, i fully aware of the shift + mousewheel to zoom out the game. But however naturally, i want a full view of the screen without doing that. Also, i have import vorpX cloud settings and Game Setting optimizer and ensure i have set them to 120 FOV. That still doesn’t change anything in the game. Please help.

2) When i shift plus mousewheel down/up i notice the screen are slightly raise above me about 15deg or so. This strain my neck as i have to raise my neck up everytime to see above me.

Please help, i spent around the past 4 hours or so.

Thanks
