If vorpx can see my desktop then why cant it see some games..such as no mans sky.

Controller issues with the G2 are greatly exaggerated. Personally i have about 300hrs playing the likes of No Mans Sky, The Forest, Fallout 4, Skyrim, and numerous smaller titles with zero issues.

The only thing that’s actually bad about them is the awful haptics, which pretty much requires you to turn the feature off. FOV is tricky, more is better obviously, but it’s something very dependent on the game experience. I find it limiting and extremely obvious in flight sims, but not obvious at all when bearing down a race track in the cockpit of a car. General games where you on the centre of the screen you probably won’t notice it, or at least become accustom to it.

It probably is worth waiting on the next iteration though, certainly if you’re routed to a AMD system, or need that extra inside out tracking camera they’re adding to solve generic problems with inside out tracking.

Absolutely a great device for VorpX though. If you have the ability (a 3090) you can crank it up to 3k per eye in steamVR, which makes games that looked poor in VR previously much much better.

and no mans sky?

I am trying to use it with No Mans SKy. However when pressing the delete button the mouse and head tracking no longer work. Than when you press it again they seem to work again. Anybody had any luck getting this to work.

Sadly I am also trying to use it with a Mixed Reality head set.

But even with no headset it still does the same thing.

Anyone playing this with vorpx. Any good settings that make this enjoyable?

Well, I bought this on offer yesterday after reading it worked quite well in Vorpx (played it extensively on the PS4 and loved it). Unfortunately, I’ve spent the better part of 3 hrs trying to get it out of the letterbox view on the Vive. I’ve tried the ini file (Ralf’s), used the Vorpx cloud profiles, tried this here: https://www.vrfocus.com/2016/08/how-to-play-no-mans-sky-in-vr-on-oculus-rift-htc-vive/ and increased the zoom slightly but they just has varying degrees of failure :(

I would LOVE to play this as in-game with Vorpx but there’s no immersion when you can see the game through a window.

Please follow the optional step in the post regarding the profile. This will allow you to raise the FOV above what is possible in the game and solve your issue.

Got it to work!

Unfortunately it is one of those “close thing” experiences. Too many visual artifacts for the game to be a good experience (grass and flowers rotate to always face you when you turn your head, glare from sunlight only affecting one eye, etc.)

It did give me Geo3D support though, and there is certainly much that is promising.

For anyone who wants to try themselves, these are the steps I followed:

• Create a profile for the game based on an existing OpenGL profile (I used the “No Man’s Sky” one from here: https://www.vorpx.com/experimental-no-mans-sky-profile-whats-next/).
• Point the profile at the game executable (D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Planet Explorers\PE_Client.exe on my machine)
• Don’t start the game with VorpX just yet. Start it normally once. Make sure to set the renderer to OpenGL in options (and also get the camera FOV set to max).
• Tricky bit: after the game is done starting up you need to figure out what command line was actually used to start it. Tab out and look in the Windows Task Manager for it (you may need to enable the “command line” column)
• Enable VorpX, <windows key>+r to get a run box and paste the command line. You can tweak your resolution to what you’d like.
• Have patience, while it loads

For some odd reason the game would crash for me until I did a manual reinstall of vcredist_x64. You can find one in your Planet Explorers folder: D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Planet Explorers\_CommonRedist\vcredist\2010. Take the x86 version if you have a 32 bit machine (who the hell does these days?).

Did you try the No Man’s Sky profile from here? That should work by simply importing it into the profile list in the config app.

Your issue sounds more like an injection conflict though, especially OpenGL games like NMS shouldn’t cause problems otherwise, since in contrast to D3D vorpX’s OpenGL injection is not time critical.

Please double and triple check for any potential programs that may also hook into games. Some virus scanners do not allow their users to fully disable them. If you use something like BitDefender, Webroot or Comodo for example, temporarily uninstalling might be worth a try.

Also check for video recording software (e.g. nVidia Shadowplay from Geforce Experience), any GPU/CPU utility and chat programs that can show notifications in games.

Ideally shut down everything that is not required. If that helps, you can easily find the offending program later.

If you can’t solve the problem, please create a trouble shoot data archive in the config app and send it to support |at| vorpx com. I can’t make promises, but I will look into the list of programs you have running and check whether you maybe overlooked something.

Hi.
So i have been through every thread i can find, youtube video, and news thread on how to set this ut, and still i cant get it to work.

I wanted this for No Mans Sky, and was pumped as hell.

So i installed NMS, booted it and set up the settings as suggested.
Installed and activated VorpX, got the DOOM profile that was suggested, added NMS.exe to that profile (some time figuring that out), set the default device to Vive.
Went into NMS properties and disabled Steam overlay, and Desktop Game Theatre.
Paused the watcher in VorpX.
Started SteamVR.
Unpaused the Watcher.
Started NMS.

The game dosnt go black and starts as normal in desktop.

I got hold of a NMS graphic config on the forum here and copied that into NMS folder.
Tried it from the top again. same results.

So i read trying other supported games like GTA5, Just cause 3, and other games.
Same results.

So i read some more and i disabled my antivirus, antispy/malware, and any other background, just steam and steamVR and vorpX left.

Same results. No black screen, nothing in Vive etc.

So im giving up soon. Just looks like VorpX wont hook into games started from steam. Also tried starting from source folder, but steam interface takes over, or game doesnt boot due to invalid info or somethings like that.

Windows 10 Pro
GTX Titan X
Intel Core i7-5820K
32GB RAM (DDR4)

PS. Also tried updating ALL drivers…… Same results.

Im glad for any suggestions. Thinking of clean install with win 10 Home.

Not sure whether that will help with your cursor key issue, but I did an experimental profile that should largely work out of the box. Not ideal, but full Geometry 3D. Make sure to read the hints in the linked post.
