Hello guys. Yesterday i bought a Vorpx. At first i want to apologize for my english because its not so good but i will try.

Already i dont know anything. I got htc vive and yesterday i want to play outlast 2 in “FIRST PERSON” i installed vorpx , tried to launch couple of time outlast 2 with vorp x. When it launch i have a window close to my eyes and any of hotkeys dont work. Only shift + scroll. No ingame vorpx menu or something.

Well i thought i must try another game. I launch Cs:go , elder scrolls online and always screen was blinking in white and i wasnt able to do anything.

Well i’ll be very glad if anyone will try to “introduce” me to this program because i really wan’t to learn how it works and make some progress with it.

Im a quite smartass so just tell me what shoulda i know EVERYTHING about Vorpx and i will listen to you.

Thank you very much.

According to the webpage pcgaming wiki:
Change FOV for different views
Edit %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Outlast2\OLGame\Config\OLGame.ini

Change the following values to your preference,for example:
DefaultFOV=90.0 – camcorder down, in both gameplay and cutscenes
RunningFOV=110.0 – slightly wider view
CamcorderMinFOV=10.0 – camcorder zoom in, lower value to increase zoom power
CamcorderNVMaxFOV=75.0 – camcorder zoom out, night vision on
CamcorderMaxFOV=75.0 – camcorder zoom out

Attention:
The FOV values to use in headset (oculus Cv1, HTC Live e.t.c. could be totally different, but these are the lines that control FOV)
——————————————————————————-

For Unlock FPS cap:
Edit %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Outlast2\OLGame\Config\OLEngine.ini
Find bSmoothFrameRate=TRUE and replace with bSmoothFrameRate=FALSE
——————————————————————————-

PD: Outlast 2 uses executable 64 bit,and directx 11,so you will most likely need a profile created by Ralf to get 3D Geometry.

Here’s how change the fov
C:\Users\yourcunt\Documents\My Games\Outlast2\OLGame\Config
->Olgame.ini
Change baseFOV to your value. I picked 130
Reduce a bit the image zoom with vorpx
And here you go your game is ready

It uses UE3, same as outlast and outlast dlc. Will it work in geometry 3d just using the outlast 1 profile?

Really keeping my fingers crossed here, as vorpx is my official go to for enjoying (most) scary games in vr

Hi!
I am having trouble getting Vorpx to hook into a non-steam version of Outlast 2 using my HTC vive.

I can get Vorpx to run fine with Outlast 1 and Portal 2 when launched through steam, but any non-steam game doesnt seem to work.

What might I be doing wrong?
I have SteamVR open and I have even tried to create a desktop shortcut through Vorpx, but every time I open the game (shortcut or not) it just launches normally on my main monitor? (sound in the HTC vive headset though – dont know if that means anything).

I have tried unplugging monitors so I only have 1 and my htc vive, but it doesnt work. It seems it is only non-steam games I have a problem with.

Hope you can help! Please ask if there is any more information you need to give an educated guess as to what might be going wrong.

Best,
Thomas T

Portal 2 and outlast both work flawlessly just seems to be with certain games dont know why!

I just finished installing Outlast and played it with my CV1 and I did not really like the experience. I used the profile for this game and the setting optimizer and everything looked really zoomed in. I changed the FOV and the Zoom setting and that “Fixed the problem”. However, I’m still not able to look a the whole screen without having the need to zoom out until I can see the edges, or by using Virtual 3D Cinema Mode.

That was just the first problem. As soon as I started playing Outlast I realized two things:

1. Textures constantly disappear. Walls, pictures, objects, lights, keep disappearing as I walk.

2. There are some ghosty looking yellow lights constantly appearing. They usually look just like other random objects, but they are yellow and with low opacity.

I decided to stop playing Outlast, and went to Oculus Home to find out that now I can’t play any of my Oficial Oculus games because they are not supported by vorpX.

Is there a way to turn off vorpX without having to uninstall it? Also, are these problems with the textures normal? I just watched a few videos and it looks like there are more people with the problem of textures disappearing. Overall, I found it to be really buggy. I am using a CV1, GeForce GTX 1070.

Thank you

Hi guys.

I´m a noob at VR and 2 weeks ago I got my first VR device, Oculus DK2.
So main reason to get VR is to play old games: farcry 3/4, Soma, Mirror´s Edge, Outlast and some newer titles.
With this post I want to encourage Ralph to continue your magnificent work with VorpX, I know it´s hard and people get frustrated very fast.

Many talk BS about VorpX but with time and effort when using Vorpx, you can get decent in game immersion, if you want to argue about that, use your flat TV and compare…
Of course there are bugs, but think really about that immersion, Ralph is making it all happend.
No railshooting, technology demos etc. BS, f*c* those job simulators.
Just pure games with some time real geometric 3d, let the bullets fly and blood will splash.
I love VorpX and I was suprised how well everything has worked.
I know it´s not easy to adjust games for some random casual player, but use time, use that 30 min for adjusting, read forums before you even start real gaming.
And there are many games what aren´t support but with 1-2-3 you get them work!
I think it´s not difficult to add native VR support to 3d shooters and drive games(Project Cars GOTY, wow) but big companies won´t do it, because there are too few VR users and many indie games are pure shiat.
We have to wait at least PSVR and maybe 2-3 years to CV2 and VIVE2 to get VR to the mainstream.
I´m just glad that the hardware has gone forward and sky will be the limit!
Christmas gift to my self will be CV1 :)
My All best to you Ralph and I hope Gabe Newell and some another bigshot will contact to you and give some help so you can take this to the next level.
I know there are lots of people who think like I do.
Btw, this is not a payed advertisement to Ralph, I´m only full of people who complain for not doing adjustments right!

All right thanks,

Another thing about zoomed in issue which i have been trying to solve it for so long.

So far, Game menu is still extremely zoomed-in with full vr mode (Non-virtual cinema mode).

But During gameplay, it seems to work fine such as far cry 3, outlast and l4d2( not supported but able to tweak fov by console).

Other few multiplayer games such as battlefield 4 doesn’t seems to work when i set it in game setting optimizer. I don’t know about rift users, they seems to work judging from their youtube videos.

Really at the end of choices. Could use some help thanks. If all fails, i might consider reformatting. But again, that could be pointless, if nothing could change at all.

Hi ralf,

Just want to let you know i finally got it working with outlast. I don’t know how, but i read up some guide: disable steam overlay and desktop home threate and surprisingly it works. Values around 120 to 150 is comfortable for me. 160 or more is unbearable and screen starts to flip 180 deg upwards. Now the only problem is the game menu zoomed-in, is it intentional?

Gameplay inside outlast seems fine for me. Maybe full vr works for me afterall, just have to do some tweaking or stuff.

Game setting optimizer works by the way. But not sure for other games such as battlefield 4. This is the only game i got it first working with vorpX.

I quite confused with the extended mode and direct mode you talking about. Not sure what mode i am. But pretty sure i am in extended mode. Just got htc vive headset sorry newbie here :).

Hi! thanks for the reply.

1)
Not sure what you meant by “performing any action that writes settings datebase to disk in the config app before closing vorpX.” Are you saying i have to edit the ini file or something directly in the folder? Is it located in the settings folder?

“Just creating a copy of a random exisiting profile and deleting it again afterwards will suffice.”
Hmm, i never encounter this before. The profile are you referring to local or cloud profile?.

I glad the issue will be fixed in the next version. Hopefully, because i facing issue such as in-game vorpx and game setting optimizer not saving at all. Is there anyway i can edit the file directly to prevent it from overwriting it?

2)
“A handful of games may overwrite those changes again if you change game options ingame afterwards, so ideally avoid adjusting video options in such cases after applying the Optimizer settings.”

For battlefield 4, even through i change FOV in-game. It doesn’t work at all. It still zoomed-in and unplayable. Back to the point 1 i just made, i couldn’t adjust the fov higher or lower in game settings optimizer due to the setting-reset issue.

“For games without the option to adjust the FOV with the Optimizer you either have to use the workarounds vorpX provides, edit ini files manually or use an external tool.”

Okay thanks, some games such as outlast won’t allow you to adjust fov. So i guess i have to tweak it by ini file. The only problem is the game setting optimizer, the fov doesn’t work, maybe it being overwritten or something.

3) “Unsupported games: Try to create a new profile based on an existing one in the config app (Local Profiles page) for games that vorpX does not support.”

I notice games boot up with vorpX if they run in dx9. Games with dx10, dx11 will not work at all and instead will display on your monitor instead of the hmd. Need some htc vive users to confirm it?

Thanks for the reply.

Hi everyone,

I’m a htc vive user here and facing issues with vorpX.

1) Settings not saved: I don’t know if this only happens to me or not. But i noticed my in-game vorpX menu is not saved at all. For example, i change to virtual camera mode and next time i boot up my game again. it revert back to non-virtual camera mode.
Not only this, i face issues in game setting optimizer as well. I can’t seem to change the fov as well (default:120) and will keep reverting back to default as well even through i click optimize settings and apply & close, no effect.

2) Zoomed in issue: This is common to newbies, i fully aware i have to set the fov higher or something or i will face this issue. But however it doesn’t help at all. I set fov to 120 or maybe higher in game setting optimizer and nothing have changed, not only that it will keep reverting to default 120 as i mentioned in point 1. All games such as battlefield 4 and outlast are affected.

3) Game compatibility issue: i don’t know if i the only one who face this. But i noticed games that ran higher than dx9 will not work and won’t boot up with vorpX. They will display on your monitor instead of your HMD. For example, i change dx11 to dx9 settings in far cry 3 and surprisingly it booted up with vorpx. But for games such as team fortress 2 it doesn’t even start at all.

Please help, i have spent around 2 days or so but couldn’t get around this problem. I a newbie and have much to learn. The only solution so far i thought of is to reinstall but i fear that my key might not work again that have sent to me via email.

Hey, small updated, just turned off the beta client, went to a stable SteamVR version, and the same issue is happening. Tried out games Outlast, Portal, Portal 2, and Fallout 4. None of them worked and we got the same error. Unknown error (308).

This software really kicks ass, it just needs a bit of practice to make it work at its full potential. I got nearly native results with a bunch of amazing game (i wrote a small list on another thread). I am collecting VR games on Steam so i made quite a lot of experience with VorpX as well and i can tell that beside these ones, which i consider the more performant, there’s many many others that may have few glitches or minor incompatibilities but still worth to be played in VR with Vorpx because they are 100% more engaging than the monitor in any case. This is the most honest review i can do after 2 months practicing with Vorpx and many many games. I cut&paste the list of my favourites here:

My list of favourites:

Dishonored
Outlast
Mirror’s Edge
Bioshiock Infinite
Aliens: Colonial Marines
Shadow Warrior
The Darkness 2
Dear Esther *
Life is Strange *
Dead Space 3 *
Max Payne 3 *

* Unlock prosiontal tracking form advanced options

These are my favourite perfomance wise. I would add also:

Alan Wake, which doesn’t suppuort geometry 3d or positional tracking but runs so well with Z-Buffer that you won’t miss the 2.

If you have a good pc and are interested on 2 or 3 games above you shouldn’t hesitate because, once learned how it works, you definitely won’t be disappointed in my opinion.
