Please see if you can work on VorpX so that it supports DK2 natural resolution while in extended mode and NOT primary monitor.

Fallout 3 – Game of the Year Edition – keeps crashing as soon as I get into game. Got myself passed cutscenes in normal mode but its crashing the game itself. Laters.

Fallout 3 crashes as soon as main video ends when baby starts crying… that’s the furthest I got so far. At this point VorpX is quite useless. Hopefully you can get it to better support good games and soon.

thanks. Another problem – got the Foallout 3 to work on extended, but 1920×1080 crashes, I tried one down – 1680×945 and it worked. Fallout 3 doesn’t have the weird scale issue, Skyrim does. I wonder why… I’ll try to disable profile. Hmm, for some reason VorpX Config now crashes too.. the heck is going on tonight.. lol :).

disabled Nvidia 3D, didnt help. Also tried to run Fallout 3 and if I pick “Show only on Rift DK2” I get error – Failed to initialize renderer. Unknown error creating the Gamebrio Renderer. It works fine if I do on main screen or even on all screens (Clone) but it wont show in DK2 then.

Do I need to run DK2 as primary monitor? Can someone please give me step by step instructions on how to run Skyrim with DK2. I have everything else setup, can run demos for DK2 no problem. But can’t get games to run under VorpX. I’ll also gonna be trying Fallout 3 if I can get Skyrim to run.

Fallout 3 worked almost right out of the box, but not new vegas. Annoying.

[Lusiphur]

Agreed — that config worked for me for Fallout 3, but not for New Vegas.

ok i just got it working again with this:

samsung as main display
fallout launcher set to second GTX670 (still iAdapter=1)
vorpx set to ‘show only on Rift’ (was ‘show only on Samsung’ before)

so basically the same thing that worked before except i changed the monitor vorpx should use.

[sajittarius]

actually, disabling flash didnt work. I had to actually go into task manager and stop Vorpx Control for Firefox/IE to work.

I just restarted Vorpx Control and now fallout is complaining about the resolution, so im guessing it rechecked which screen is main/secondary. Ill let you know once i get it working again, lol.

[sajittarius]

ok so i went through all the settings and it appears to be working now…
I’m using a Samsung monitor and the Rift. Here are the things i tried (might help in improving vorpx handling in the future?):

Rift as main display
Fallout launcher set to second GTX670 (meaning 2nd display, same as iAdapter=1)
Vorpx set to ‘show only on Rift’
game displays on Samsung Monitor, vorpx menu appears in game, head tracking works (just displaying on wrong screen)

samsung as main display
fallout launcher set to second display
vorpx set to ‘show only on Rift’
game displays on Rift, no vorpx menu, no head tracking

Samsung as main display
Fallout launcher set to second display
vorpx set to ‘show only on Samsung’
game displays on Rift, everything works…

So it looks like Win8 or 8.1 is reporting primary and second display differently and Vorpx is using the wrong one?

Side note: once i got everything working Firefox and IE start crashing on open. I think its a problem with Flash player, I even put in exceptions for the flash plugin exes. The only thing that seems to work is completely disabling the plugin in the browser.

yea, sorry guys.. i swear i had it working, but I’m trying to run Fallout NV today and its giving me the same error (resolution not supported).

Its like windows switches to cloning the displays instead of keeping them separate. Not sure why…

[Ralf]

Issue confirmed. For Fallout 3 I found that changing the line iAdatper=0 in FalloutPrefs.ini to iAdapter=1 fixes the problem, for Fallout NV this doesn’t seem to help.

The above presumes that the DK2 is set as secondary display.

[Ralf]

Try the following ini-tweak:

In your FalloutPrefs.ini change the line iAdatper=0 to iAdapter=1 .

With the DK2 configured as secondary display this worked for me in Fallout 3 but not in Fallout NV.

vorpX 0.7.1 / DK2 / Win 8.1 here as well. I also have display orientation set to Landscape (Flipped) and the Rift set as the primary monitor, but I am not able to successfully start up Fallout, even after trying sajittarius’s fix above. The DK2 is set to extended mode, obviously. After starting the game from Steam, I open the options, and configure the graphics to the first graphics adapter and change the video to 1920×1080, save that, but when I start the game it just throws up an error message: “”Failed to initialize renderer. Your display doesn’t support the selected resolution. Please set a different resolution in Fallout: New Vegas’s Launcher under ‘Display Settings’.” That happens with or without sajittarius’s display scaling change.

I did also try it in portrait mode — with that, and selecting 1080×810 in the game options config, the game did launch, and I got a 3d view with positional tracking… but it was sideways.

Any suggestions? I’m happy to provide more info on my setup if needed.

[funkyhunk]

Thank you for replying Ralf :)

I’ve checked, and doublechecked, the game config menu is set to 1920X1080,
And the falloutprefs.ini file under
[Display]

Is set to:
iSize W=1920
iSize H=1080

It didn’t help when I ran the game windowed.
When I set the rift config to direct mode, I get a small window in the upper left corner where the game starts up, reacting to rift movement, but nothing is shown on the rift.

I’m running Win7 64, on a i5 4690k @4.5ghz, and a 3gb GTX780oc card.
Are there other things I need to make sure is updated? the Vorpx drivers are the most recent, so are the display drivers. The dk2 has the newest firmware.
