Topic: Farcry 4 + Vorpx 0.7.5 woes
in forum Game Hints and Settings
adamwalker13ParticipantHas anyone had any luck getting farcry 4 up and running? I see the sbs oculus view for about 2 seconds (with working headtracking) but then an immediate crash. Looked in windows event logs and nothing hugely useful there (just 0xc0000005 fault in farcry4.exe). I’ve just clean reinstalled the game, Oculus 0.4.4 and Vorpx 0.7.5 which made no difference. Any tricks to getting this working? Would really like to give it a go.

OculusRiftRocksParticipantFar cry 4 worked great, Setup tips
FOV, HUD and mouse Fix
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Far Cry 4\GamerProfile.xml
set FOVScaleFactor= 1.8
set SafeFrameAreaWidth=”0.15″
set SafeFrameAreaHeight=”0.3″
set MouseAccelerationOn, MouseAcceleration, Smoothness, Smoothness_Ironsight UseMouseSmooth to 0although the HUD may be hard to read, its the correct size, its just that the rift isn’t good showing detail around the edges
a cheat engine file has option to remove spread, this makes the crosshair size much better, but vorpx doens’t allow alt-tabbing with this game to change the cheatengine options.
Issues:
Driving FOV is bad, try ADS or looking right/left.Sep 6, 2014 at 6:38am #17359In reply to: Help with Skyrim
reanorParticipantok, VorpX needs Net Framework 3.5.1 enabled in Windows Features. Without it won’t run. I got VorpX up and running now. Gonna try to disable profile and eye personalized rendering see if this resolves awkward scaling in Skyrim/Far Cry 3.

RalfKeymasterSkyrim: In case you use any mods, please try a fresh and modless (vanilla) install first, and install your mods again one by one afterwards. The vast majority of mods will work fine with vorpX, but there are so many of them that it is impossible to tell whether some might cause issues. Mods that use the Skyrim Script Extender or ‘ENB mods’ are likely candidates for causing trouble.
For Far Cry 3 the following things might be worth to check:
1. Disable the in-game overlay in Uplay, otherwise you might get a black screen on startup.
2. Switch from DX9 to DX11 or vice versa. Maybe one works better for you.
3. The game sometimes seems to require several tries until vorpX hooks correctly unfortunately. Starting the game multiple times should suffice, you probably do not have to restart vorpX.Generally please check for the following things (some of that you might have done already):
1. Just in case: make sure that you run vorpX Control, not vorpX Config. It shows a tray icon in the taskbar when it is running.
2. If you use more than one monitor, check whether disconnecting the additional monitor(s) helps.
3. Make sure to set Windows display config to clone mode and vorpX monitor config to ‘Use system settings’ (which is the default).
4. If still nothing works after verifying that, there is a high probability that something on your PC interferes with vorpX. This might be a virus scanner, anything that can show content over games (for example chat programs like Skype, Mumble, X-Fire, Evolve etc.), or a special display driver. Please disable all such programs temporarily.
5. If you didn’t do that already, please take a look at the trouble shooting sticky above.
If you still have similar issues with multiple games afterwards, please write a mail to support |at| vorpx com for some individual trouble shooting, including basic system specs and the games you tried.

VangParticipantCylonSurfer, this is just my opinion as a 3rd party: you seem like a pretty smart detail oriented guy, and I agree with your astute assessments in your posts. But having said that, I think you’re getting a wee bit wrapped around the axle over the details that aren’t to your liking.
You paid 43 bucks for an early release beta driver for an early release hardware item that isn’t even going to be released until next year. So it mostly works but because some details don’t work to your exacting satisfaction you want to throw the whole thing back and demand a refund? IMO, that’s a little unreasonable considering how fresh off the press this is. You did a good job of highlighting some problems Ralf should look into, you should have left it at that.
Everything you’re getting on about here is open to interpretation as far as your reactions to them. I actually almost 100% agree with you on all your assessments of Skyrim and this driver at a factual level: it’s still hard to actually dig in and play, but to me mostly because the edge peek and zoom are a good start, but the GUI panels are still pretty large and way out to the periphery – unlike you, I actually find the geometry 3D mode pretty acceptable to play even with the visual glitches you can’t stand.
To my mind, the 500lb gorilla in the room isn’t these slight visual glitches, it’s the fact the resolution is so low in the dev kit. But what can you do? We all knew we were getting a low res dev kit. At this early stage in the game, the visual effects could look as crisp and flawless as 1080p PC Crysis3 set to Very High FX quality and it’s still gonna look not so hot through the big obnoxious screen door we’re all looking through anyway ;-)

ZarkovParticipantI’m not having any of the issues that you mentioned. I’ve tried Bioshock infinite and Far cry 3 with no issues. Also skyrim and fallout 3. I haven’t tried Mirrors edge jet, but I’m installing it now.
My system specs are sorta similar. I7, GTX580 (320.49), win7 64 bit.
However as I’ve only recently got my Oculus I’ve never bothered to install Vireio or similar software. Is there a possibility that Vireio is somehow inhibiting the performance of the VorpX drivers?Mar 5, 2013 at 3:27pm #170In reply to: vorpX – Pre-Release Thread
RalfKeymasterBesides the ones mentioned in the original post there are for example Mass Effect 2+3, Flight Simulator X, Race Driver Grid (no headtracking for now), Far Cry, Half-Life 2, Metro 2033, rFactor, …
A detailed list with all games that have full 3D-support will be made available before launch. There is something for everyone, or at least I hope so, a good mix of older and newer games from many genres.
And even if your favorite game isn’t among the ~50 with full 3D-support, there is a high chance that it will run without stereoscopic 3D, but everything else.
If you have any wishes, please post them here. I’m always open to suggestions, just don’t be disappointed if your wish isn’t included in the first release. The day only has so many hours. :)
