Alright I finally got Battlefield 4 to work.

The fix for me that finally got it working:

Step 1: Launch Origin

Step 2: Right click on battlefield 4 and go down to Game Properties

Step 3: change “When Launching this game” to “Battlefield 4 (x86)”

Step 4: check mark “disable Origin in Game for this game”

It fixed the game and gave it “3d”, but it doesn’t track your head movement nor position. Plus when i click escape, the game gets blurry, but no menu options. It doesn’t freeze, it just ain’t any menues there :S

And how can i get it to work with wow?

Not quite sure what you mean here… Do you mean it’s not showing the same image to both eyes (one image across the whole screen, each eye is looking at one half of the image)

If you’re having trouble with it showing two different images to each eye, try playing the game via the 32 bit client (Right click BF4 in Origin, hit “Game Properties” and change the dropdown menu “when launching this game” to X86).

If you want to run it in 64bit, make a vorpx shortcut to BF4’s 64 bit .EXE (to make a shortcut, right click on the little vorpx icon on your taskbar, hit “Create Desktop Shortcut” and find “bf4.exe” in your origin games/battlefield 4 folder). I’ve found this usually makes the game work properly if you start vorpx, start origin, run the shortcut(which won’t actually start the game, it just tries to make Vorpx recognize BF4 64 bit as a useable process), and then join a game via battlelog… Sometimes it doesn’t work, just have to close BF4 and run the shortcut again, and then join another game.

You will have to do this every time you want to play BF4… If you don’t want to go through all that, just run it in 32 bit.

ok so got bf4 to reliably hook and display all good there but for some reason it refuses to align the two images i’ve screwed with the fov both up and down from 70 to 120 degrees the 120 came close but still very bad double image.
i’ve also tried all the different aspect settings
any help would be greatly appreciated

Its in 1080 and setting IPD to 64 fixed the blurry problem though I dont know why this happened since I had vorpx and oculus config set to 67mm and bf4 in vorpx was fine. I tried in all the different modes… geometry, zadaptive,etc

Fov is set in morrowind graphics extender to 120 as I read in several guides that this is the fov needed.

tried with morrowind + 3.0 overhaul and all i got was either all red or all white textureless scenes.
I tried turning “distant lands” option off because i heard it can cause this but no luck turning it off.

I then tried changing the morrowind graphics extender from mge xe to the older version 186 but kept getting errors from the overhaul installer.

I then did a fresh install with morrowind 3.0 but this time used the older v 186 graphics extender and distant lands shutoff…. still got the textureless mess.

By the end of the night I had reinstalled it 4 times and couldnt get any combo of settings to run with the overhaul,
I ended up doing a fresh install with just the mge xe graphics extender installed and finally got it to work….
its pretty cool but is way too glitchy still, now instead of the whole world being white and textureless, things look fine but every couple of seconds whole walls and buildings will glitch out and disappear leaving blue textureless voids where they were.
Also i noticed scale seemed weird like all npc’s looks huge and when looking at there feet it looked like looking down from a mile high canyon. I have fov set to 120 and played around with the vorpx settings but never got it to feel quite right.

I could of lived with it but the buildings and walls glitching away every other second just made it unplayable so I gave up.

I read that ralph used the morrowind overhaul 2.0 for vorpx but I cannot find anything but version 3.0.

I dont know what the deal is. Ive tried 2 different versions of the main game files, made sure all drivers and dx are up to date. Tried all different co figurations of overhaul.

I also noticed i was only getting fps in 30’s and 40’s….
this shouldnt be the case as its just vanilla morrowind with the graphics extender installed….no other mods.
battlefield 4 was running fine in vorpx off the bat so i dont know what the deal is but spent a whole day trying to play morrowind with no luck.

Any help would be appreciated as I don’t see a way of playing battlefield 4 with the space+shift combo resetting the view on every running jump.

[CuttyMcStabStab]

Hello

Having found the information on the forums for setting up Battlefield 4(which was very helpful), new layers of issue are now in question.

How can the in-game view reset function(shift+space) be rebound to a less used key such as one of the numpad keys.

Running in-game(shift key) and approaching an obstacle(wall, debris, ect.) requires a player to press the jump key(space), which resets the view, often changing movement direction entirely.

The rebinding of the screen peek function(middle mouse button) to a less used key would also be an appreciated option but is far less pressing or relevant to any game breaking issues.

Alright I finally got Battlefield 4 to work.

The problems I had to deal with:

Optimus Nvidia driver not switching from intel to Nvidia with Battlefield and other games. I have dealt with this problem in the past and unfortanatly a reinstall of the entire system fixed it on my older system and it also fixed it on my new system which is a Sager NP7330 13″ notebook with the Nvidia 765GTX card optimus technology.

I really didn’t think I was going to get the Oculus Rift working well on a laptop with a switching graphics card. The reinstall seemed to have fixed my switching issues.

Now for Battlefield 4 and VorpX troubles. I pretty much had the same experience as many other users in this forum where I couldn’t get VorpX to work with any games for a week or more. I was about to give up and then there was a friend who I really wanted to show BF4 to in the Oculus so I sat down tonight and went through the forum posts all over again.

I made sure all apps using 3d are turned off such as Windows Aero, and I couldn’t find anything else since i have a fresh install of Windows 7.

I am using Oculus DK2 in extended mode as primary to get this to work.

Now I had seen suggestions to use VorpX to create a shortcut for battlefield and this didn’t work for either exe.

I kept wondering if I was actually launching the game in 32 bit mode. I checked task manager and nope, running in 64 bit still when I thought I was using the 32bit shortcut.

The fix for me that finally got it working:

Step 1: Launch Origin

Step 2: Right click on battlefield 4 and go down to Game Properties

Step 3: change “When Launching this game” to “Battlefield 4 (x86)”

Step 4: check mark “disable Origin in Game for this game”

When I launched the game it worked. Then I had to remember shift middle mouse button for edge peak which works great.

Other tips related to eye strain and bf4:

I then redid the measurement for Eye Position for Current Device in the Oculus Config to better improve the view for less eye strain. For some reason mine was off, I go between two systems with my Oculus Rift DK2.

I also found that after you put on the Oculus Rift DK2 to close your eyes real hard to help move some of the skin into the goggles around your eyes. I found this in the reddit post about Oculus and Eye strain.

Battlefield is now working well for me and a bit less strain on the eyes. I thought for sure I wasn’t going to get it working but through persistence I was able to get this to work and to share the experience with my friend.

I hope this can help other BF4 lovers to get this working.

This guy Ralf is doing a lot of work answering peoples posts. I believe VorpX is some great software!

Hi, everything was working fine but I’ve updated to the latest ATI driver and now the vorpx view in games is not aligned correctly. normally it corrects the view when the game starts, however I tried F1 2013 and battlefield 4 and both hurt the eyes and theres nothing I can do to fix it. it seems the 3d balance has gone bad and cross eyed. I tried vorpx yesterday before the update and the games worked fine.

ATI DRIVER – amd-catalyst-14-9-win7-win8.1-64bit-dd-ccc-whql

Please can someone check for me if its the new driver thats causing a problem with Vorpx?

All my rift games and demos are still working fine still so its just vorpx.

Does it need to be updated to work with the latest ati driver?

thanks

Battlefield 4’s Z-Normal and Z-Adaptive modes in Vorpx don’t work for me, they look the same as the off setting. I have no problems getting Vorpx to hook the game and produce 2 images for viewing through the Rift, but it’s the same image twice, so it’s only 2D… I’ve tried lots of different settings but it doesn’t seem to want to cooperate with me.

Anyways, I’m just reaching out to see if this is only on my end or not, if anyone else is experiencing this, let me know. Thanks!

I have followed all of the steps within the vorpx DK2 setup guide but I can load up some games such as Arma 2 and Battlefield 4 into the rift but in game menus and within the actual game itself when playing all I can see is a large screen projected on the rift, I am wondering how I am supposed to make this large centered screen into the two sterioscopic video outputs for each eye within the rift. Headtracking and everything is working well its just an alteration in the video output that I need. I have followed all the instruction provided and surfed on forums but no success. If anybody has the answer or can help me it would be very much appreciated. Many Thanks. Berrers :)

Hi.

I’ve set up my DK 2 properly. Works with other games like HL2, TF2 and all the other demoes. Got Vorpx because I want to try it out with Thief, Battlefield 4 and so on. I cannot figure out how this works at all. It says I’m supposed to press “DEL” for a menu. Nothing happens. Anyone feeling like helping a frustrated noob out ? :)

Make sure you are running the game in Direct3D 11 NOT mantle.
Create a Shortcut to BF4 using VorpX
In VorpX config Force Game to start on the Oculus
Make sure you have the latest SDK & Firmware for the Rift
If you are using a Catalyst Card, use 14.7Beta drivers

Well I have just read a Battlefield 4 post that may answer most of my questions :
– You can’t have viewing on DK2 and targeting on mouse. I guess I just have to lower the mouse sensitivity in game or head sensitivity in DK2 options to improve the targeting precision with head (what is better head or mouse sensitivity ?)

– I have to set a FOV near 100 to have a better scale (any other Vorpx expert options to achieve that ?)

[BoredGamer]

Anyone have this working on the DK2 on VorpX 0.7.1? I can’t even get it to hook.
