How would an ancient game such as fallout 3 (which is running at 75fps at 35%ish gpu usage) not be able to run a solid 90fps? If the game world is rendered twice at 90fps that seems like a cakewalk for this gpu since this game is from 2008, does it not? Especially considering the gpu usage values I’m seeing already.

@Ralph as soon as i enable direct vr in FO4 and want to aim a target the screens starts to flicker like trying to switch to a certain zoom its almost impossible to im a target though. If direct vr is disabled all is fine and aiming is possible without flickering..
whats that?

[nieda113]

Yes, as soon as the effect in the enb gui is enabled the image looks flat. I found out changing the occlusion settings will change that. I am still tweaking setup , since i fallout 4 enb works fine, even not using the injector version ( not avalable for FO4) enb works fine.

After quite a bit of testing I can confirm that Touch only shows up for me in DX11 games.

There is a section in the log when running a DX11 game:

`INF: Touch Controller Manager: New controller found. Index: 0
INF: Touch Controller Manager: New controller found. Index: 1
INF: Touch Controller Manager: Initialized

For DX9 games this does not appear in the log and no Touch controllers shown in game.

Incidentally even in the DX11 games (I.e. Fallout 4) none of the buttons do anything for me. There is also no Touch related menu items in the DEL Vorpx menu

I was able to set up my settings and play the game in Direct VR and play for several hours without any problems. I turned on my PC earlier today and tried starting Skyrim only to have it crash right after the Bethesda logo. Thought it was just a load issue so i tried again, again, and again with no success. Have already verified Integrity of Game Files and even reinstalled Skyrim. Also did a Factory Reset of VorpX.

To check if the issue was with Skyrim or VorpX i started up both Fallout 4 and The Witcher 3, both work fine without any problems.

Ive beeen looking around for a few hours now and havent found a solution that works for me. Anyone have any ideas or know why its crashing?

Skyrim Game Settings:
Windowed: 1280×1024
Antialiasing: Off
Anistropic Filtering: 16
Texture Quality: High
Radial Blur: Medium
Shadows: Medium
Decals: High
FXAA: ON
Water Options: All ON

-These are the same options when i originally set up VorpX for Skyrim.

My PC Specs:
Ryzen 7 1800x
EVGA GTX 1070
500GB SSD
3TB HDD 7200rpm
32GB DDR4 3200
Oculus Rift CV1

45 fps is quite good.. when you move your head left and right are you getting some motion blur? fallout new vegas is game I want to try now. I got a r9 fury with 6700k and 16gb ram with ssd

Hello everyone,
I’ve done my share of googling and research about vorpx settings, but I haven’t had much luck with my particular problem so I’m making a thread on it. Essentially, my gpu load is around 35% and my cpu under half load with a framerate hovering around or above 80fps a little bit on my rift. I have a framerate counter displayed on my monitor along with gpu and cpu loads all from afterburner. This is pretty annoying, but better than the 45 fps with the vorpx fluid setting (I disabled that). It also has the occasional hiccup while running lightly like this so far as well with some noticeable stutter. I can see the stuttering from the 80 fps and really feel it when moving around.

My rig:
Gtx 1080 TI with a small overclock
I5 4690k overclocked to 4.5ghz
16gb ddr3 ram
Oculus rift cv1

I’m just trying to figure out what settings to look at to increase the load on my rig because I’m still in the vault with this framerate.

My settings: (not at my gaming rig atm, but I’ll update when I am)
Resolution – set to what vorpx suggested (1280×1024 IIRC)
Geometry 3D mode because the others flickered or caused other graphical glitches.
In-game graphics are set the highest because of how old this game is asides from anti-aliasing.
The only settings I played with were the 3D effect and camera things, so I don’t think that would affect the fps at all really.

If there are some other settings needed for a full diagnosis then just ask for them. Everything else I reset to default for the most part anyway.

Some other issues I’ve been struggling to solve:
FOV – I tried the suggested 110 FOV in the console in-game, but that didn’t seem to do much. Should I be looking at resolution or field of view changes in the game to adjust this best? I was playing with the settings a lot to tweak this. I’m seeing from my googling that I should use edge peak to use my pipboy. Should this also be applying to conversations? Because I am way in their personal space haha.
I’m assuming my 5:4 aspect ratio isn’t helping and creating a proper 8:9 ratio will reduce the zooming I see? I see a noticeable amount on the side in wrap mode that I normally don’t see.

Aiming – What’s the best way to get the shooting to line up with the cursor? I’m hoping that when I was playing with settings I just broke this and it’s an easy fix. Shooting the bb gun at the start was insanely hard and I had to get quite close and aim up to the left to make the hits I needed to progress.

After I have dealt with this framerate issue, what should I look at for the best leap in in-game graphics? Should I be increasing the resolution past the oculus rift’s resolution or look at supersampling? (not sure which is optimal for overall graphical improvement). Should I figure out how to create an 8:9 resolution and just increase the resolution to be a multiple of that to the point my graphics card is close to max utilization? I don’t see nvidia control panel anymore, so either I find a version of it or maybe the new GeForce experience allows for doing that. I’ll have to do research on this.

My game is still vanilla with no mods until I sort out these issues. I’m hoping a nice texture pack will help pretty the game up a bit, but the game look quite beautiful already considering its age.

The 3D effect works great in the game (except talking to people heheh) and this is going to be a blast once I figure out how to tweak the game.

Thank you to all kind souls willing to lend me a hand. I just got vorpx and this is my first game, so I’m a scrub at it haha. I’ll apply what I learn here to other games in the future.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for responding. I get this error with Bioshock, Bioshock 2, Bioshock Infinite, Mirror’s Edge and Alien Isolation. I got the same missing dll error as well. The workaround isn’t that great because most of the time I’m not quick enough to resume the watcher in time for it to properly hook. The Steam games that still work are Skyrim, The Forest, Borderlands 2 and Fallout 4. Thanks for the info about the log. I’ll let you know if I figure anything out.

Peace \/

Thanks for the response!

A month with a 1080ti and no VR Skyrim! That’s torture.

Indeed it is!

Your summary is almost right… everything works as intended apart from the scan. It is worth pointing out that the problem is in all games, not just Skyrim so that should rule out issues with SKSE, etc (although I am running vanilla Skyrim). I use Fallout 4 as a good example as this is a fresh install and the scan worked for me previously there. So at worst I can play with head tracking as mouse emulation.

I assume you’ve got the three necessary apps running… Oculus Client, VorpX (v17.2.1 running in the taskbar with ‘Device Selection’ set as ‘Oculus Rift’) and you’re starting Skyrim via Steam. Because you’re having trouble you’re running no mods whatsoever (so no SKSE).

Correct

I also assume that non-VorpX VR titles are working without issue.

Correct

Launch Skyrim from Steam. From ‘Options’ set as ‘Aspect Ratio (4:3 or 5:4)’ to ‘1280×1024’) and ‘Windowed Mode’, then ‘Play’. The monitor should show a black window with the VorpX logo bottom middle and the app starts in the Rift.

It does, yes.

On or before the Skyrim main menu did you see a message window that says ‘DirectVR supported. Partially cached’ and ‘Recenter tracking if it feels odd in any way’?

I get the ‘Recenter tracking…’ message. I don’t get “DirectVR supported, Partially cached” in any games (Bioshock 2, Fallout 4, Skyrim, Dishonored, Deus Ex)

Still in the Skyrim main menu (before selecting ‘Continue’ to start game) can you press ‘Del’ on the keyboard to bring up the VorpX in-game panel? In ‘Main Settings’ there’s a bunch of options starting with ‘Virtual Cinema Mode’ which should have a ‘Direct VR scan Alt+L’ option below. Is this there and can you left-click it if it is?

When I press the Delete key the menu pops up with, as you say, the Virtual Cinema option at the top. The only buttons I get are “Alter FOV” (this just attempts to open the Skyrim console and enter “fov 110” – I only have this button in certain games and “Recenter Tracking (Alt + Space)”. There is no ‘Direct VR scan Alt+L’ button. It is worth pointing out I used to have this as of Vorpx version 17.1. As of 17.2.1 it has disappeared…

[SpynalTom]

I agree with Wildan, you probably just have Virtual Cinema mode on. It should be all around you not just in a screen in front of you. Virtual Cinema is great for some situations, like 3rd person games. I promise once you get something working like it’s supposed to you will understand. Skyrim, Fallouts, BioShocks, RE7, and even Half Lifes are game you will probably never play flat again once you see it in it’s full glory.

[markbradley1982]

I have been playing Fallout New Vegas for 40 hours now using VorpX with a Direct VR scan and I personally would never go back to playing it on a flat computer monitor.

I disagree that it’s like looking at a 3D screen with head tracking. I feel the same sort of presence that I do with native VR games sans motion controls.

Although I am using mouse and keyword with New Vegas, New Vegas is a very immersive game in its own right which more than makes up for the lack of motion controls by having some very deep gameplay. The extra layer of immersion by adding position, rotational, and geometric stereoscopy makes this an experience that I enjoy just as much as my standing and room scale native VR games.

Highly recommended. Hell I’d even be willing to pay Ralf a monthly fee through patreon or even paypal if it helps him add Direct VR support, or at the very least Z buffer 3D support, to more games.

I almost feel like the $40 is too little for the great experience I’ve been having. I certainly feel like I am having more bang for my buck than paying $30 to play Rick and Morty for 90 minutes.

[Grumdark]

At this time,a mod is being developed that will allow all modes,including roomscale,and motion controllers…
It is a mod quite similar to doom 3 vr mod.

Here a video:

https://www.reddit.com/r/hlvr/

Some games like Doom 3/Doom 3 bfg,and Half Life 2,are games that soon have native support by mod,(doom 3 already works in fact),on the other hand,Fallout 4 will receive this year official native support,therefore,I prefer to lose Time in this moment,trying other adaptations with Vorpx for other games that will hardly ever have native support nor through mod at all.

[baggyg]

Unfortunately a new download link didn’t change anything. I tried both Skyrim and Fallout 4 (Clean Install). The ALT + L combination does nothing and on the vorpx in-game menu there is no button at all for run scan or the DirectVR settings.

Can you please let me know what could me to be getting this?

[alegse]

HalfLife 2 is great in VorpX now
Played Episode 1 before with many glitches, geometry problems and poor flashlight/lighting

Halflife 2 with direct VR is AMAZING now! I recommend it. I find it better than Fallout 4. Also it is easy to get 90 fps in geometry mode with 2x resolution upscale, 8x anti aliasing and 1600×1200 (I have GTX 1080) resolution so looks nice. Go ahead and play it!

Glad I did not play Episode 2. Now I have something to look forward to.

Hint: I find it looks way better with the HUD off.
