Thanks for the response, Ralf! I see your point. It could be a coincidence that SLI stopped working with voprx right after that update, I cannot exclude this. There were some updates in steamvr, Windows, and NVIDIA drivers. I use the vive, by the way.

As you said, the setting that you mentioned was already the safest. I also checked more games, and see that the problem occurs with all of them, except dishonored 2, for which I use the cloud profile. There is no 3D with that profile for some reason, but SLI does not cause the flicker problem.

I would like to check an older version of vorpx, but I don’t know how to get it. Could you help? The last version before the DirectVR would be good to try. I think it was 16.2.1

Yeah forget that sequel I will just play the first one, I hope that Prey is in Geometry 3D!!! Also please play Sanctum 2 – it’s excellent!

I heard Shadow warrior 2 works with Vorpx and also seems a good game…
How about mass effect 3? It should be half polished by now with all the updates?!?
It’s a shame that I played all the best games prior to getting my Pimax (half life, deus ex, portal, etc.)

Anyway I hope Fallout 4 will keep me going after Dishonored!

Don’t you ever say Dishonored 2 to me again. I literally spent over 2 weeks – enduring up to five minutes load times per game start – to even get that thing show up correctly, only to realize that G3D does nothing although it should.

There will be a Z3D profile for the game in the next vorpX version, but I can’t promise more. I won’t rule anything out, I just can’t promise more. Loading times are often so prohibitive long that it’s almost impossible to actually work on the title. Maybe some issue with their implementation of the Denuvo copy protection in conjunction with vorpX, that’s just a guess though. Sometimes loading times feel almost normal, but most of the time starting the game takes forever.

Prey (the new one) is in my Steam library and looks like a good candidate, but I haven’t looked into it yet. So I can’t say anything profound.

[deathorb]

An excellent and all encompassing response indeed! I would only ask if Dishonored 2 is also playable in direct VR? And how about Sniper elite 4 with geo 3d and VR?
Was also hoping that Prey would have Geo 3d but I think it doesn’t – is that true?

Great list there anyway!

[Ralf]

The best games to start with are undoubtedly those with Direct VR support. After applying Direct VR these have perfect 1:1 head tracking and perfect FOV without the need for any further setup. In *some* cases Direct VR even provides basic roomscale, i.e. you can walk around a bit more freely than with the normal vorpX positional tracking.

In no particular order:

Bioshock 1 (original version in DX9 mode)
Bioshock 2 (original version in DX9 mode)
Bioshock Infinite
Borderlands 2
Borderlands Pre-Sequel
Skyrim (original DX9 version is best for VorpX)
Fallout 3
Fallout New Vegas
Fallout 4
Dishonored
Half-Life 2 (incl. Ep. 1+2)
The Stanley Parable
Dear Esther (Source engine version)
Portal
Portal 2
Black Mesa
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Left 4 Dead 2
Mirror’s Edge
Aliens Colonial Marines
Duke Nukem Forever
Quake III
Star Trek Voyager Elite Force
Return to Castle Wolfenstein [2001]

My latest personal recommendation would be Half-Life 2 Episode 1, which I just recently played for two hours. Something I don’t do nearly as often as I’d like to these days. Call me heavily biased, I am for sure, but that was more fun than 99% of made for VR games. I actually ended up doing that after buying and trying a bunch of highly praised made for VR titles the same evening.

In case someone never played HL2 Episode 1: right at the start you enter an alien fortress, which not only still looks great after all these years, it’s also a perfect-for-VR mix of shooting sequences and (easy) physics puzzles. Most importantly: all that in a highly intense atmosphere that almost inescapably sucks you into the game. Creating such an intense atmosphere is the hard part of making good single player shooters and it really makes all the difference in VR. Hard to top if you ask me.

Similar things could be said about Bioshock, Black Mesa (Half-Life 1 remake), the Fallout games, Skyrim or – insider tip – Aliens: Colonial Marines, which may just be a mediocre shooter on the monitor, but is actually great with vorpX.

Important side note: whenever possible play standing with Touch controllers or Vive wands!

One last thing: not a Direct VR game, but also extremely intense (and visually great) is Resident Evil 7. I chickened out before the introduction mission was over. Good luck with that one.

Of all the games I tried, only 2 are actually good enough to be properly playable. Thief (2014) and BattleFront.
Most every other, the FOV can’t be set high enough no matter what. I can fake it a little bit with Portal 2 but either the fps isn’t high enough or the FOV is off even after adjusting what I can in VorpX. It’s just funky enough to not be worth it.
Fallout 4, again I can fake it enough but it’s still not quite right, there’s a couple other titles like this but most are just terrible. If you can’t have a real 120 fov horizontal, it just never looks quite right.

So basically I play using the cinema screen and I’m ok with that as long as I have the 3D option but the lack of UE4 support is killing me as so many games use that engine. Dishonored 2 isn’t playable at all with imported profile and some won’t even hook, especially if you want to use ENB series or Reshade. As such I never recommend my VR friends to get this.

I just wish Ralph was able to put more resources into VorpX, usually the lone coding wolf for software like this just never pans out enough to have polish. Too bad Valve doesn’t try to make an app like this.

I used Rising Evil’s updated profile for Dishonored 2. However the game is like frame by frame. Even the loading screen is 10x’s longer than normal. It’s about like 1 frame for every 5 seconds. In the Rift, I get the “sorry it’s taking longer than usual to load…” message and the game never loads up in it. But onscreen I see the VorpX logo and it’s unplayable of course.

So I assume it must work fine for someone if Rising Evil made 2 profiles for it and it got 4 endorsements. So I wanted to check to see what my options are for getting this working.

Since this uses a customized Tech 6 engine, should I try making a profile using the new Doom profile? But I assume that’s what Rising evil did

Thanks for any help.

Hi same problem as usual with certain games.
Error message :
The game shows: cant find .exe, or game exe takes too long to load , execution error (Dishonored series ,GTA5)

The solution is to pause vorpx and as soon as the launcher closes its window, resume vorpx.

I do have that problem with certain games : Gtav,Skyrim,Dishonored (1 and 2)
whereas Skyrim Se ,Fallout and Alien Isolation start without that pause trick.
I guess the game start too fast and vorpx cant hook that fast.

I come from the previous DK2 days using VorpX which I loved dearly.

Now I have in my possession CV1 and with it the bulky oculus application. What happens is the following:

-Start VorpX, confirmed running in System Tray
-Make sure SteamVR is not running
-Put on headset, oculus home launches
-Launch Dishonored, Dishonored appears on monitor(single monitor connected) and not on headset
-Headset stays on Oculus Home, monitor stays on Dishonored
-Adjusted resolution in Dishonored to make sure it would work properly with headset(1280 x 1024 per VorpX Configuration recommended setting)
-It just seems like VorpX isn’t hooking properly, or Oculus Home is taking precendence over it

@Ralph i have found this problem in Dishonored.

I set Dishonored to a 1920 X 1440 resolution in dishonored graphics settings.

If i start in vorpx the settings shown at the launch screen of vorpx is 881 X 661.

It doesnt matter what i change in Dishonored engine.ini the resolution does not change in voprx .
could that becaused by adding the launchcomand in steam ” -windowed”

(Othergames can be set to windowed and still have the resolution set to 4k and the resolution configuered in the games ini. will show in vorpx though)

@Ralph,, today i installed Dishonored. I bought the game on steamm with all dlc avail.I wanted to find out what i am missing on Dishonored2 since Dishonored supposed to a G3D setting.

So i installed the game and run first without vorpx. Exited the game and then started vorpx.
The game launches with vorpx watcher paused and then resumed.
The game froze after the vorpx screen showed :direct vr available.
I excited the game an relaunched. I got fatal error , and some .dll missing.
I verified with steam but the error was there, still.
I reinstalled the whole game / two hours downloading) Started the game again and game runs fine. Started vorpx and lauched the game error pops up again,, misssing.dll and fatal error.
Reinstalled the game a second time guess what.. after voprx launched missing .dll and fatal error…
Fatal Error!

HI thx for the update but i rather see added G3d support for Witcher3 and Dishonored 2 as well as Mafia3

….

I only have a top 3 myself as I don’t want to include games I haven’t truly played. I have tried a lot that either didn’t run well enough or wasn’t supported yet.

1. Dishonored: It works so well in VR. No big hands and very little tweaking before it ran perfectly. I really like the gameplay for VR. Stealthing + being a completely OP character is such a rush in VR. It plays well with a controller. I mapped D-up and D-Down to “Reset Cam” and “Edge Peek” through Pinnacle game profiler, and then ran the rest of the controls with the games controller support, which works perfectly. I decided to just set it up manually without Direct VR, because the scan only works in some places. 19020×1440 runs fine on my gtx 980. I also set the image zoom to 0.70 and fov to 90, which helped with the alaising and image quality and weirdly also made the player height seem more natural.

2. New Vegas. This is just such great game, but took a lot of time to set up with a decent mod list. I made guide on how to set it up manually as Direct VR wasn’t out, when I played it. Took a lot of time to set up, but played so well. I think I spent 40 hours in VR in that game.

3. Bioshock Infinite. The game looks gorgeous, though the gameplay is nauseating. But it is fun flashing through the sky. I haven’t played that much, but I might give it another whirl, when my VR tolerance has increased again.
