jjenssonParticipantI tried the trick with renaming the ME3 exe to ME1 etc, and then starting ME1 in the LE launcher.
There are two nasty side effects:
1) the launcher doesn’t close and keeps playing music over the game
2) i’m using a gamepad, but ME3 constantly switches to kb+m, even though my touch controllers are disabled in the in-game menu of VorpX. I can use the gamepad for a minute, and after that controls are messed up again, until i get another tutorial button prompt, then it’s fixed again.Very strange. And unplayable ATM.

CrackerBrand00ParticipantTried this with multiple profiles that are G3d, but none of them appear in 3D. Even though it’s an option in the internal menu. Wondering if the profiles are incompatible with the Epic Store version?
I’m aware there is an actual VR mod, however it doesn’t work too well with the Reverb G2 apparently. Works once in a while, and the screen mirroring is gone all together. So trying to VorpX route

legaiaflame2ParticipantZwei: The Ilvard Insurrection is an action rpg made by Falcom, the same people that made the YS series. I tried a bunch of YS profiles like: YS 7, YS memories of Celceta, and YS 8 Lacrimosa of Dana and they work but don’t work. What I mean is, the screen blinks constantly and the game freezes at cutscenes. Also, I can’t even get ReShade to work with this game. When you install ReSahade and split the screen, the screen is all glitchy and blinking as well.
Any ideas or suggestions?
nyteblaydetteParticipantThe black bars can’t be helped even in vorpx. That’s Capcom trying to make this game more “cinematic” by adding letterboxing.
Personally I just up the fov and zoom in, but I can get used to ignoring the black bars.Apr 24, 2022 at 5:09pm #210746In reply to: Chernobylite – any working profiles out there?!
Zel1984ParticipantWanted to add this to the post above but can’t so i’ll put it here.
The head/camera twitchy-ness can get annoying so when it becomes too unbearable for me i just turn headtracking off and use the gamepad to look around instead, not ideal for VR as it’s obviously better looking around using your own head but is still a very cool game to play in VR even using the pad to look around.
Apr 23, 2022 at 7:15pm #210734In reply to: Quest 2 Vs Reverb G2
SmoilsParticipantFor vorpx only I’d recommend reverb. I have index and quest and its really hard to chose between resolution and quality – no matter what GPU you have quest even set on top quality with a cable will have the feel of compressed video – here and there there will be compression artifacts hidden in dark corners, some textures smeared into single color, overall image quality being a bit blurry even with sharpening.
This especially matets if you try to play a heavy modern game using Z3d and compression eats small objects like rain or pixel thin bullets or whatever too.
I do enjoy higher resolution of quest and compression isnt game breaking, but if index screens had quest resolution I wouldnt even think twice, but even with inferior pixels I chose index for number of games just to get sharper image and better 3d feel.
Oh and more juice you try to squeeze out of quest more chances image quality will degrade even further, like if you set supersampling to best it can do and 120hz you wont just get a bit of stuttering in games, compression artifacts will become worse too.
Considering HP device has higher resolution than index and you plan to only use vorpx I’d say there is no reason to chose quest apart from price or potential to play wireless.

RalfKeymasterThere is an official profile with the best possible DirectVR support available, even including automatic weapon hide. Also the .ini tweak that supposedly fixes the AI gets applied by vorpX. With a decent GPU you can easily run the game at 90FPS with high resolutions.
Apr 13, 2022 at 12:07am #210624
mr_spongeworthyParticipantI agree with Ralf that this is likely a VRAM issue; The only thing that routinely brings my 3080Ti to its knees is when it hits this limit. It will drop from 90fps to 20, or 18, or whatever but then it never recovers the way it should. Performance just continues to drop until eventually the game or the HMD crashes. It’s a really frustrating problem that only occurs when I’m pushing flat games to VR (not just through vorpX, same thing happens to me with other solutions). I expect it’s some interaction between the GPU drivers, steam VR, etc. This never happens to me with VR Native titles or when pushing games to my monitor (even in 3D). Those solutions work normally and all I get is a brief blip in performance while stuff swaps between VRAM and system RAM.

ratcatParticipantJust forget it. I gave up after playing with settings adding custom start up shortcuts, dicking around endlessly. Its such a f*cking useless piece of crap software.I’m a computer tech. I have an i9 9900k on 48 GB RAM etc etc and I still get terrible FPS and I havent played even one game OOTB with VORPX that looks good and plays well. Many hours trying to get a game look reasonable Just forget it like I said. I’m going to uninstall and pretend I’ve never heard of it.
Apr 10, 2022 at 3:42am #210578
mr_spongeworthyParticipantI have very good luck with the SBS mode overall and pretty frequently switch to it for certain titles where 3D is really the entire point. I mean, there really isn’t any reason to play a title like Greedfall in a HMD and you’re just putting hours on an expensive piece of equipment.
Even though it’s just a good-faith add-on I’m very happy with it. Only downside is that I find Over/Under is FAR better on my display. I think that’s pretty common; something with the way our eyes perceive detail. I have to use massive amounts of downsampling to get a good result out of SBS mode; as in render the title at 4k and downsample to my 1080p display. In O/U mode it’s fine as low as 1080p native title rendering (although more is always better of course).
Hoping you someday add O/U mode; in theory it should be pretty easy to do.
Apr 7, 2022 at 12:01am #210534In reply to: Metro Exodus constantly crashing
vertixhParticipantI changed it to OpenXR, uninstalled SteamVR and that seemed to have some success. For once, I was able to play for longer than 10 minutes but this is only without FidelityFX or a custom resolution. With a high custom resolution the game runs smoothly for 4-5 minutes but then my headset/game crashes but honestly, I’m not sure which one is crashing, the headset just blacks out with a horizontal line in the center. One other problem that I’ve been facing from the start is that vorpX fails to hook most of the time and then gives me a blackscreen until I force close Metro by Task Manager (I can’t even tab out or see task manager. I just use the arrow keys and go to the top most executable and end tasks blindly) I could only really get vorpX to hook to Metro when it says that the last launch was unsuccessful (ending it via Task Manager) and it prompts me to use safe mode then after a few seconds I see vorpX saying that it is attaching to Metro while I’m still on that prompt, click no and then it finally works. I’ve also tried the alternative hooking method but it didn’t work

mr_spongeworthyParticipant@Lewy1984 Good luck with this! I too still often play on a 3D monitor as it’s simply so much more relaxing than having to wear and HMD for games that you are really just wanting stereoscopy.
I have very good luck now with vorpX (wish there were more absolutely perfect G3D profiles, *hint* *hint*) and SuperDepth3D is probably your best bet for titles that don’t work with vorpX or for a few other valid reasons (for example if a title is so bad you simply *have* to run other ReShade shaders; that will generally be incompatible with vorpX).
For example, Detroit Become Human looks and runs fantastic on my 3D display using SuperDepth3D, but other titles look and run better using vorpX; especially any title with a working G3D profile (Fallout 3, FNV). It’s an unfortunate matter of trial-and-error, but in the end you can still get reasonably good results.
Tip: If you routinely switch between different techniques or devices you can make zipped backups of your critical settings files and then label the archives properly. I move between my 3D display and HMD for Greedfall, for example, so I have “GreedFallPrefs3D.zip” and “GreedFallPrefsHMD.zip” – that way I can just extract the correct prefs and move them into place rather than wasting time manually configuring settings whenever I change my display device.
What 4K 3D projector do you have? Does it support any 4K 3D modes? I’ve been stereoscopic gaming about 12 years also and had a 720p DLP (I used it in frame-packing-mode; so it looked very sharp even at 720p). I have 3 sets of Optima shutter glasses currently, but no 3D projector at this time. I’ve been holding-out for a new standard that supports actual 4K 3D; but most projectors seem to switch to 1080P for any form of 3D output? Even though frame-packing is a thing of the past except for Blu Rays, it would be nice to find a projector that could do, for example, SBS and Top/Bottom 3D modes at 4K rather than 1080p.
Mar 26, 2022 at 5:36pm #210351In reply to: RDR2 + VorpX + Mods = Brilliant
Zel1984ParticipantYou are very welcome my friend, hopefully it can help people get an even better experience with RDR2 in VR than it is already.
I posted a link to this mod in another topic but i’ll post it here too as it is pretty handy: Skip legal screen mod – https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/28?tab=description skips the shotgun Rockstar screen & the two legal screens before the main menu, helpful for cutting down the time it takes to get into the game especially if like me the game usually crashes 2-3 times before working properly.
Edit: In the first post i mentioned two mods Bounties expansion & Bounty hunting expanded & enhanced, you only need the Bounty hunting expanded & enhanced mod as that is basically an improved version of the Bounties expansion mod, no need for both.
Mar 26, 2022 at 5:13pm #210350In reply to: Possible fix for RDR2 crashing at legal screens/menu
Zel1984ParticipantYeah it always works eventually, usually after 2-3 tries so it’s not a big problem & with the legal screen skip mod it cuts down on the time it takes to get into the game, your work is very much appreciated Ralf, cheers.
Mar 25, 2022 at 4:09pm #210332In reply to: Possible fix for RDR2 crashing at legal screens/menu
Zel1984ParticipantAfter some more testing i am still getting crashes at the main menu so it does not fix the crashing issue but it does cut down on the time i had to wait sitting through the shotgun screen then the legal screens so still worth installing if you want to save some time if your game crashes multiple times before eventually working.
