I’m struggling to get VorpX to work on some old games in OpenGL mode. The games are Need for Speed 2 and Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed. These games are so old they can’t be run on modern systems without special patches, and it happens that an OpenGL 1.1 wrapper has been made for both of them:

The problem is, I can’t get VorpX to work on them based on any profile. Profiles I’ve tried:
Quake
Quake 2
Quake 3
Half-Life
Hexen II
Doom 3They’ve usually hooked, but there’s no 3D depth whatsoever in them. Does anyone have advice on what I can try? I’ve read how VorpX has great older OpenGL support, but it seems like nothing can hook.
Hey guys! Lately there’s been a wave of retro shooters, some good, some not so good, and i would like to know what titles work with VorpX.
I’m thinking the likes of Amid Evil, Dusk, Ion Fury etc. Best case – we use this thread for making a list of retro shooters that are tested and working with VorpX. I’m consciously excluding older titles like Quake or Return To Castle Wolfenstein, because there are Quest ports for those.
Any thoughts?
Topic: Quake 4’s head tracking
Quake 4 used to track OK. Now the weapon keeps shifting all over the place, and I have to re-center all the time.
Also, after opening the vorpX settings with DEL and closing them, head tracking switches off completely, i.e. I can’t turn my head at all. The only solution is to reset the game profile.
So myself, dimensionaldu, Anatolij, turktim7 and matteo39 all asked for help in a thread about the game “Kingpin.” This is an older game, and if it just didn’t work on vorpx, I could understand letting our pleas go unanswered, since Ralf obviously has his hands full just trying to help with games that do work.
But the thing is–Kingpin DID work with vorpx. It worked perfectly fine until a vorpx update stopped it from working. So we know it CAN work. Which is why the five of us were all requesting Ralf’s help to get it working again. Now, if we got a response that said something like: “Sorry guys, I can’t get that game working now because of X,” that would be something we could understand. We’d be disappointed, but we could understand.
But we haven’t gotten any response at all. If I were less of an optimist, I might think that our requests have just been ignored.
But again I know there are a lot of requests for Ralf to respond to, so it’s perfectly possible that he just didn’t see our original one. It is with the hope that this is in fact what happened, that I have created this new thread to draw attention to the issue.
For those of you who have never played Kingpin, IMO it is one of the best FPS to use the Quake II engine and in many ways remains unrivaled after all these years. It has some of the most visceral melee combat I’ve ever experienced in a game, and the shootouts are equally enthralling and quite gory. It actually has an entire online community still dedicated to playing it, and there’s a good reason for that. It’s just fun.
So Ralf, if you read this, I’m sorry to bother you again, but I really hope you can find the time to respond and let us know if there is any chance we’ll be able to play this great game using vorpx again.
