willypat,
I had no problem to get mouselook working, but apparently I did not understand the sensitivity slider correctly. It was moving too fast for me, so I tried moving it all the way to the left, which actually made the view act really laggy. Moving sensitivity all the way up (and deadzone all the way down), and adjusting head tracking sensitivity in the in-game DEL menu, I got the head tracking working quite tolerably. Except now I really still miss the neck modeling from fsxrift :(. Still, it is quite good improvement.

For reference, my settings (ones not mentioned are at default)
– Mode: Z-Adaptive (Geometry mode looks very wrong from inside the cockpit, as if wings are glued to the windscreen)
– Depth of Field: off
– HT sensitivity: 0.23 (more precise value for me would probably be around 0.20, but 0.23 felt comfortable enough and gave less neck strain when looking over the shoulder for aligning for base leg)
– HT smoothing: off
In FSX:
– Settings/Controls/Control type: Mouse Look
– Sensitivity (all axes): 127
– Null zone (all axes): 1

Hi Ralf.. I worked it out.

in ARMA3 I simply hit the “fn” key + back space

this took me from a single view to duel (V.R view) & I can see the VorpX beta symbol between the two lenses when I’m not wearing the Oculus Rift.

Arma3 runs great in V.R !!! Wow

I realize this is still in Beta .. but hey if any v.R enthusiasts want an awesome game try ARMA3. I am yet to tweak the VorpX settings but so far all is great… I have my MacBook Pro running Oculus Rift in BootCamp mode Win.7 64 bit. I have modded my Rift so now all power to the Rift s via USB cable.. this means my XBox controller & mouse are running from a USB hub.

This works well for me.

Can’t wait to test SkyRim..

note: I had a hard time setting this up as I’ going all this onboard a sailboat !! I ahve agenrerator humming away on the upper deck so I’m limited to how long I can play for.. but I cam up & running… I bet I must be the first person to use an Oculus Rift aboard a yacht… in the middle of a river.. I have to paddle my little dingy 1 km up a river to reach my Oculus Rift …

“”Do you start vorpX Control with any parameter? Normally this cannot happen when it is started via its default, unaltered start menu entry, very odd.
You could try to uninstall and then reinstall vorpX to make sure the start menu entry is the one that vorpX originally created. The Web installer will automatically fetch the new version.

Hope that helps,
Ralf

I got Please Start the Vorpx Control before using vorpx shortcuts
” problem last night… I try to uninstall but I cant find the link in e-mail. should I email to support |at| vorpx com for asking help?

If the auto update fails, you can simply use your original installer to update. It will always fetch the latest version from the server.

That’s only a workaround of course. To make the auto update work, you should also check whether vorpControl.exe is somehow blocked from accessing the internet, for example by your firewall or antivirus program.

Hope that helps.

Same here. My copy is not auto updating… Ralf?

Re-installing has sorted it out. Thank you Ralf and mgood xx :)

This worked for me. I am running Windows 8.1 and I was having the same issue.

Uninstall your current version (you don’t have to delete your registry keys), then use the Web downloader to get the new version.

Enjoy.

[Ralf]

First thing you guys should try is to reinstall vorpX, which will also update it to the latest version.

If that doesn’t help, you might want to check whether there is a conflicct between your virus scanner and vorpX’s copy protection. To do so, either disable the scanner temporarily, or – much better for security reasons – exclude vorpControl.exe from the scanner.

Hope that helps.

I can’t seem to get vorpControl.exe to work. Similar to above although I don’t believe I ever manually had it set to run as admin.

I no longer have the installer (didn’t know we needed to keep it around). How do I get the update?

[topas]

I have got the same problem, the icon shows up and closes immediately. No entrys in the system event log regarding to.
Win8 (not 8.1)

Another question: I will receive a new graphics card at monday i have to contact the support to get a new license, right?

Hi VR kids,

So I formatted my PC earlier this week and put on Windows 8.1 and re-installed VorpX. When I launch VorpX Control the icon shows up in the system tray briefly and then disappears again.

I have tried running it in various compatibility mode settings, as an administrator, without any difference. I have checked the Windows event viewer and VorpX directory, cannot see any logs anywhere. I applied my new license key after installing.

Next step I would try re-installing the software but does that mean I have to email support again? Is there any way to back up my license settings? I can see why it exists but I really dislike this model of licensing.

Does anyone have any thoughts/solutions on this? Many thanks for your help.

Hartz.

I had checked “run vorpx control as administrator” which I normally like to do so that I do not get admin type errors. However, I just unchecked that and the control started to run.

[Ralf]

Do you start vorpX Control with any parameter? Normally this cannot happen when it is started via its default, unaltered start menu entry, very odd.

You could try to uninstall and then reinstall vorpX to make sure the start menu entry is the one that vorpX originally created. The Web installer will automatically fetch the new version.

Hope that helps,
Ralf

Just downloaded the update. Now when I start VorpxControl I get the message “Please Start the Vorpx Control before using vorpx shortcuts”. I click ok but the VorpxControl never starts. I rebooted and still same issue.
