Hello I’m a total Vorpx noob who purchased the program just a couple days ago. For my first game I want to play Fallout 3 GOTY (which I last played way back in 2009 on PS3) with a bunch of mods (through Vortex) that hopefully will make the experience better in VR.

I finally got the game running pretty well on my new 4080 PC (Quest 2 through Virtual Desktop) in 90hz which seems to get rid of most of the weird warp stutter I experienced on 120hz. Playing in Full VR G3D on Phenomenal graphic setting.

Now I’m looking for advice on the best mods for playing the game in VR, and perhaps also advice on what mods to avoid in case they should be game-breaking in Vorpx. That’s where you experienced Vorpx Vault Hunters hopefully enter the equation!

I’ve been looking at Nexus collections like “Rebirth+” and “Vanilla But Kinda Better” and just taking whatever mods I feel like from there. I think I’ll avoid TTW for now. Nexus collections are here:

Mods I’ve installed so far: FOSE, Command Extender, ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated, Updated Unofficial F3 Patch, F3 Tic Fix… just basic stuff to get it running. I tried RH Iron Sights but didn’t like how gigantic the weapons became while aiming and the annoying swaying.

I would greatly appreciate any help! Thank you.

For stuff like the pipboy little gestures like the wrist flip are perfect. Currently there is only an inwards flip, but at least up will come shortly in addition to that for two more possible actions. Not sure whether down/outwards make much sense for even more, feels a bit weird for my taste, but I guess it can‘t hurt. Also there will definitely be a backpack (inventory) gesture shortly.

I played a whole lot of Fallout 3, which is one of my alltime favorites, with motion controllers years ago, long before gestures. With Touch controllers admittedly, but Index shouldn‘t feel too different. Really boils down to getting used to it, you weren’t born with a gamepad in your hands either. Afterwards it’s truly human being with free hands (motion controllers) vs. squirrel nibbling nuts (gamepad). And that is without gestures. Add aiming down sights, throwing grenades etc. to that. I think you get the picture. Leave your comfort zone, pays off. I’m notorious for saying ‘can’t promise anything’ here fairly often, in this regard I can say the opposite with confidence. :)

Can‘t really imagine how vorpX might affect your VSync issue while not hooked into a game, but I‘ll double check that, of course.

Has anyone had success getting the MS store version of Fallout 76 to work in VorpX?
I’ve changed the access permissions on the folder, can now view it’s contents, read / write, etc., but when launching, VorpX can’t find the install and I’m not sure how to direct VorpX to the folder.

So far the only games I can get to run is fallout 3 and oblivion everything else, even cyberpunk with and with out the mod you guys have on your page I get a white hourglass icon that spins and you here the music.

I have even tried lowering the graphics to the lowest settings available (which of course make the games look like trash) and still the same thing. I can watch 3d SBS movies find in it but I was able to do that in Bigscreen VR. and I can run VR games like skyrim VR and Fallout 4 VR on high settings no issues.

So I have vorpx, just bought it today. I have tried it with games and 1 everything locks up where on the desktop it’s fine but in the headset it’s frozen. This is so far for ALL games I load except fallout 3. Im about to try cyberpunk with the mod here soon. 2, I cant get into any in game menus for vorpx cause it locks up.

I’ve been testing out this new headset (coming from a Quest 2) and I’m running into strange problems that I can’t figure out. For instance, I just tried playing Half-Life 2, which always ran near perfectly on the quest (even with Airlink), and I’m getting constant de-syncing and lag, and also some weird issue where I’m seeing flashing mirror images of my weapons at times. I have no idea what could be causing this behavior. It was pretty bad in Fallout 76 as well, to the point I couldn’t really play it.

I know this isn’t a PC spec issue (running a 3080 OC, with a more than capable CPU) and again, these games ran fine on the Quest 2.

Any idea of what could be causing a wired headset have lag and desync issues like this? Thanks in advance.

(For the record, I’ve been using it to play Everquest (one of the main reasons I bought the reverb since only WMR headsets will work with this game for some reasons) and apart from some gamma issues and needing to use a gamepad to bring up and use the Vorpx menu, it’s been working fine for that.)

The headset desktop res on the virtual monitor can be set independently from your physical monitor’s res to anything the virtual monitor supports, making it unnecesary to switch the desktop resolution before launching certain games in the first place.

SUPERB ! I wonder if the follwing case can be handled that way:
On my 1080ti together with my monitor i can use a maximum res of 4400 something in resolution asuming the monitor is the reason i cant gat higher. Would i then be able to run a game in 7680 x 4320 for example (max 1080ti res) ? Oh boy couldnt wait to test that on Fallout 3 :-)))))

I think you should also check headsets with a smaller resolution and see if it’s not a better choice than the Reverb G2.
Real 3D in VR needs about double performances, as it will render twice (once for each eye). Meaning, if you get to run a game at 4k with steady 60 FPS, you will get round 30 fps in VR and it could be uncomfortable to watch as low fps could resulte as motion sickess for you.

I would like to point 2 important things :
First, resolution on your screen and it’s display in VR can look different; a 1080p on a 1080p screen can look clean, but inside the headset, it will look more blury and aliasez.
1440p looks OK in the G2, and 4k is nice.
Even with my 3090, i couldn’t run most games at 4K with high FPS and high graphics settings.

Second, concerning Fallout 4, this game does not have DLSS; wich is bad for VR as it help having a higher frame rate without loosing too much quality. I couldn’t run Fallout 4 at decent display and graphics with my 3090, so in the end, i bought Fallout 4 VR.
So if you want to run Fallout 4 in VR, be ready to reduce the graphic quality enough to get smooth FPS.
The good news is, Fallout 4 will have a free update from Bethesda this year, so let’s hope that they will include DLSS.

Is there any other games you would like to play with VorpX ?
Outside of Fallout 4, the original Mass Effect trilogie is one of my favorite experience; i wouldn’t be able to play this games flat anymore.

Thanks for the information. Is Fallout 4 what they call a ‘full’ VR experience? For example you can look behind in game?

[Ralf]

There are two beginner’s guides in the vorpX help that explain the most important stuff, but Fallout 4 is one of the games where you actually don’t really need one. Except from dialing in graphics details and resolution to match your PC’s performance (rendering in stereo 3D is more demanding than rendering mono), all you have to do pressing a button after entering the game and vorpX takes care of the rest. Precise instructions are shown in the game window.

Gamepads work like they normally do after pressing said button.

Hi, I’d like to get into VorpX but would like some pointers if possible and before I buy a HP Reverb headset.

I’m looking to use VorpX with Fallout 4 and I see there are profiles for this on youtube my question is I use a modded Fallout 4 so even though Steam has to be opened it is launched through Vortex, would VorpX work in this scenario?

There are one or two other games I’d like to use but Fallout 4 is the main one. I hope I can also use my elite series 2 xbox gamepad? I’m disabled so really prefer the gamepad to VR controllers. I’m looking at the HP Reverb (rev 2) headset. Is that a good choice? Would buying a second-hand one be wise or is it best to go brand new?

Lastly is there an idiots guide to set this all up? I have seen a few youtube videos but they are a few years old so don’t know if they are still relevant. Sorry for the questions.

“I play a modded Fallout 4”
Have you tried to play it UN-modded ?

If it was me I would start at the beginning (with a fresh install of the game).
This way you can make sure everything is working as it should be first … Then start adding your mods, then you can narrow down what is causing your issue ;)

Hello community,

Forgive my bad English but I’ll try my best.
I have the following problem: I play a modded Fallout 4 that I start with the NMM with activated F4SE. However, I can’t get along with the setting of the VORPX. There are downloadable Fallout 4 profiles but in my Oculus Rift S it shows ‘flat and rigid’. Can someone help me how to work with the settings? The official Fallout 4 VR is out of the question for me because the version is not compatible with my modifications. I would be very grateful for any kind help :)

It is a very frustrating situation.
I bought Vorpx mainly to play certain games like GTA4, GTA5, Red dead 2, bioshock or The Outer Worlds and it just so happens that the company that owns it is a b#####hit.
Luckily I discovered great experiences with vorpx with fallout/Elder scroll saga, but there is no guarantee that in a few months I will be able to play them due to similar circumstances…
