Thanks ! Found a good hint on that here https://sites.google.com/site/bethesdasfallout3/ini-tweaks

Fallout 3 is definitely one of my top, if not my very top vorpX game. It just looks great and it runs very well in G3D at high resolutions. Thanks for the tip about the multicore fix. I’ll take a look at that. I’ve got a thread here somewhere that covers using the Fallout stutter remover etc, which may be necessary for many (Fallout 3 and NV had major stuttering issues when run at frame-rates other than 60 or 30, if I remember correctly). Other issues to avoid are frame-rates greater than 60, which will break the physics and can cause all kinds of problems (this issue persist through at least Skyrim and FO4). So you’ll want to use motion smoothing to double your frame-rate and lock your actual fps to 45/90, or 60/120 (for example). I lock it to 45/90 and that’s plenty smooth enough for me even in full VR mode (and it allows me to use UGRIDS=7, as that makes a HUGE difference to FO3’s otherwise extremely short draw distance.)

Glad you like it. Setting the option to full enables a hack that AMD recommends game developers to implement in addition to the upscale/sharpen shaders. Didn’t cause a problem for me in Bioshock Infinite, but whether the hack is an actual improvement or not in general depends a bit on the game and the resolution it runs with.

The hack basically tells the GPU to load a more detailed version of a texture from memory than it normally would for the current pixel. When game devs implement FidelityFX they are supposed to do that in addition to the upscale/sharpening. vorpX can enforce the hack for every texture read (if available for a game). In some cases it doesn’t make much of difference at all or even introduces some shimmering instead of improving anything, but in other cases it does actual improve things. Easily spottable examples that probably everyone has available to try are trees/shrubs/gras in Fallout 4 or Skyrim.

I have to agree with this, I remember testing Fallout New Vegas, which basically is the same engine, with I think it was a California full conversion mod or something like that (it was a long time ago sorry), and the game looked incredible in Vorpx, I really have to work my vorpx backlog of shame at some point, but it just keeps growing instead.

Very well done Ralf !

To me the new filter makes distant objects more detailed and a little less sharp on close objects compared to the old one, but the overall view is definately better to many degrees. Way less artifacts compared to the old filter. Hair also looks more detailed now. (Fallout 4)

Then i freaked out on Fallout 3. Using a good texture pack and the new sharpening feature insanely boosts the image quality to an never before known state. Perhaps the new filter has even more impact on older games then expected.

Interesting detail about my Vive Pro. VorpX now seems to almost wipe out the screendoor effect. At least i had that impression on Fallout 3, i was trying so hard to find my pixels , but i just couldn find any. The image was “too clear” for it :-)

Additional hints if you want to use this https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/12056 maximum texture pack and run in crashes.

This https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/21888/ Multicore fix seems to make the game more stable. I tested this with resolutions at 3840×2880 and it seems to work.
I recommend changing your ini files manually in order to keep your FOV settings, just add the additional lines mentioned in the 4gB fix. Good luck.

But I’m *really picky* so my list of ‘best experiences’ is going to probably remain very short.

I am currently playing Fallout 3 with VorpX. Even after the awsome FO4 experience i must say this game (2008!!!) looks so incredibly nice with vorpx, especially with the Fellout mod which removes the greenish lighting in favor of crisp colours and a blue sky. These ini settings my be helpful on random crashes. These settings will also improve FPS and minimize studder. Dont go too high in resolution though which may result in crashes or freezes. I found a resolution of 3600×3700 (Gtx108ti) working well. Push the VorpX sharpness slider all the way up to 2 makes the image look very clear. In my eyes no need for texture mods etc.

Hello community,

I am experiencing issues with running a freshly installed (Steam) copy of GTA V with vorpX 21.2.3 and Valve Index controllers. I did not change the default profile, as such I assume I use the new profile with the vorpX connection mod.

The game crashes shortly after starting the game when my Valve Index controllers connected to SteamVR already. If I connect one of the controllers with the game already running it crashes shortly after. Both crashes occur without error message nor crash report.

The crashes also happen if I change the default controller type in the vorpX settings.

Running another DirectVR game (Fallout 4) works fine, including using the Index controllers. Starting GTA V and beginning the story works fine when my controllers are not connected, too, though I cannot use mouse and keyboard controls to control my character. Both work fine in the GTA V menu/settings/map, so I assume locking the controls during playing is intended?

Has anyone a hint how to fix this problem or how to go on troubleshooting?

Thank you in advance!

Bethesda games traditionally are well suited for the different things vorpX can do ranging from 3D to the memory scanner stuff, so both Skyrim and Fallout 4 are still being used here for dev work quite often. Surprisingly they also both still seem to be fairly popular among users despite VR versions being available, probably for the same reasons as yours.

Anyway: did you run the DirectVR scan (either ALT-L or from the vorpX menu)? After a successful scan there should be positional tracking for both G3D and Z3D since that let’s vorpX access the game’s camera position/rotation values in memory. Without running the scanner positional tracking is only available for G3D.

@ RJK_

Had I known that a pip boy speeds up working on vorpX, I’d definitely had gotten the Fallout 4 collectors edition. BTW: your mug is in use here regularly, must have been a hideous plan to remind me of what I have to do every day. ;)

@ Demosthenes

I somehow doubt that there would be any serious demand for someting like that. Still: do you by any chance know of a way to sell small amounts of merch without having to take care of worldwide shipping? If there was e.g. some service where one could upload pre-made graphics templates, I’d be happy to do that. Wouldn’t want to make any money with it, but having an option to easily order a mug or t-shirt for those of you who want to would indeed be great.

I’ve been using Fallout 4 on the Rift S and have found some issues. I used to play it a lot on the original Rift, but now it’s getting to be an old game (with a full VR game too) so I’m guessing it’s not been looked at recently.

Anyway, here are my observations thus far, if they’re useful:
– rotation works, but positional tracking doesn’t, except if you’re in a chair.
– 3D doesn’t seem to work except in Geometry mode, where it’s very slow.

Other than those issues it’s the same as the original Rift. I have Fallout 4 VR but couldn’t get it to work while sitting down (along with other issues like swimming and weird workshop interface) so this is a good substitute.

Even the 3D of many “nativ” VR Games is not good enough to get the maximum immersion. For example in Asgard’s Wrath and Fallout 4 VR. It depends subjective how many hours i play in vorpx every week. I play often 4 Days a week for 4-5 hours per day, and that weakens the 3D more and more, and you don’t take that into account. I’m no hostile of vorpx, on the contrary i’m one of the biggest fans and i use it many hours every week. But I’m very impatient in the progress of vorpx and also stereoscopic gaming in general. But I’m a nice guy, and that is why I’m looking like a please guy. I exercise my constructive criticism with gentle pressure, but in a nice way. You don’t respond well to criticism either,not even if she is meant nicely. I’m not your hostile, i love your vorpx. But i want the progress of vorpx faster, because I’m impatient ! You like your Z3D like it is, thats your opinion and that’s perfectly fine. We don’t have to argue about that ! To mention that in RE8 or CP77 thread was a mistake, i also had other older game profiles in mind.

When you run the DirectVR scan, make sure to look straight ahead. Although I don’t recall Fallout:NV to be among them, in a few games that may be important to get the horizon calibrated right.
