Yep, Skyrim work too!!! :D

[Fr4nK]

Ok it work now! I install virtual desktop and it give me a warning that both my hmd needed to be on the same graphic processor as my monitor. (I have 3 output) I put the oculus to the next one and it started working. Tried Vorpx desktop viewer and it work too. Now I will try Skyrim :D

I have a GTX 760 Mars and it doesnt work at all, I can’t launch skyrim and I can’t launch vorpx desktop viewer (running as admin or not). It crash instantly. I tried desactivating multi gpu (sli) but doesn’t work neither. It would realy help if I could keep the Vorpx 8.1 for now. Because I just can’t make itto work at all. I tried to install older version of SDK to run Elite Dangerous and it work well. But I want to play Skyrim and it use to work before I got vorpx auto update to 9.0.

Ralf, could you pls allow to install back vorpx v8.1???

Elite Dangerous is amazing. I’m using 6.0.1. runtime because it’s the most compatible although 5.0.1 gives better performance with Elite. Frontier really need to bring their space sim up to date. Runtime 8 is here now and quite a few apps and games have already been updated for 7 (seem to work fine on 8 as well).

Here’s the screenshot of VorpX:

And here’s one of Alien Isolation:

And both on top of each other:

Even though the screenshots aren’t perfectly aligned it’s clearly visible that Alien Isolation uses the space much better than VorpX does. I think the free space at the edges is what causes the “screen” to look like a porthole.

Here a screenshot from the old VorpX version:

There are some major issues with controller emulation.

You can’t hold down attack. Sometimes it will hold for a short time on the first shot, but it always releases and then fires off as if it’s rapid fire. This is a huge problem as it renders bows and power attacks unusable. The command just does not ‘hold’ properly for some reason. Even rebinding the attack commands to keyboard keys does not fix the issue.

In a related problem, I can’t rebind the mouse keys. I was able to do it exactly once, but it has not worked since. I get the empty command in the box […] but after that I am unable to replace the command with a mouse click or do anything else with the mouse in the menu. I have to back out and restart to be able to use the VorpX key binding menu again.

It would be nice if I could use the partial emulation to just play with the gamepad buttons, but the problem there is that there is no head tracking. If I disable the right stick emulation using the partial disable I am unable to look around at all, which kind of defeats the point of having it.

Hard emulation of the gamepad is unpleasant as it causes dizziness as looking around causes continued movement. It’s not a viable option.

Put simply, the gamepad emulation of this thing is completely screwed up. I either had good comfortable tracking, or I am able to properly use the attack commands, but I am unable to work out a way to do both at the same time.

There’s also a weird movement problem. Any faster than a slow crawling walk, and you don’t stop moving immediately upon releasing the analog stick. Your character takes several steps forward and often ends up in traps or hazards, or with their face against a wall because of it.

The emulation in this program is a problem and does not work properly. Every mode has a different major issue that makes gameplay difficult.

If you could figure out how to allow for proper [official] gamepad support and still have head tracking that would be great, but as it stands emulation just doesn’t work properly.

I had some trouble getting vorpX .9 going but not from vorpx it was nvidea. I had to do a try a few updates before I got it all ironed out. That and the oculus updates I had to juggle around some…

That being said some of my personal favorites with vorpx are:
Skyrim (If you like Skyrim wait till your in it)

Fallout NV (Same as Skyrim, if your a fan, this is amazing)

Dishonored (Great stealth game and has great combat and atmosphere)

Dying Light (Scary. Bring under pants.)

Alien Isolation (Scarier, mod your chair to hold a bed pan under it)

Bioshock Infinite (This game is so beautiful in the rift my eyes cant take it, great combat, story, amazing game)

GTA V (What is there to say, its VR GTA V lol, a lot of fun)

All have G3D except for GTA V. All that means is it has a “better” 3D appearance(although much more demanding). The reason g3D is great is because you can use positional tracking, leaning in and out and all that. Making for a really fun new way to play all your favorite games.

As far as cheer leading for vorpX, its the internet. People like to shit on stuff constantly. VR is one of those things that needs to be done right or you hate it. People who hate stuff are the loudest and sometimes its damaging to the idea as a whole. Honestly Oculus should of had something like vorpX included or working on at least.. So when people pile hate on poor Ralf I just think why not point that at Oculus for more or less having there heads up there bums about certain things lol Anyway really, hand to god, vorpX works and is the main ingredient to a happy healthy vr life lol

Its all in the set up. Use vorpx menu (del) to adjust to your taste. Skyrim and gta seem to run better after update. Played full vr 3D gta v just fine, infact the 3D effect seems even better after setting it up. Just play with settings you’ll get it.

Sadly, the free Xpadder doesn’t work on Windows 8.1, and although it’s not very expensive, I’ve gone way beyond my expenses for this month.

On the thread I opened, it’s been advised I should try with Joy2Key, which I happen to have. So I’ll try that solution.

Anyway, I thought it would be simpler to use Vorpx’s emulation, but it seems I was wrong. Again.

As for the resolution, I’ll have to try mingling with the config file, because Skyrim refuses Vorpx’s auto settings. It might have worked in extended mode, but with OR’s 0.7/0.8, it doesn’t.

But thanks a lot for the help! :)

Edit (edit broken on the forum)….

the second paragraph should read:

Regarding your resolution problems. Open the Skyrim launcher go to options and set the resolution to 1920×1080, 16:9: Widescreen.

[Karlor]

There’s no easy way to go about. That being said its not hard it just takes some time and trial and error to get set up how you like it. Skyrim is fairly easy out of the box because there isn’t a ton of buttons to map.

VorpX has a new gamepad set up but I haven’t messed with it yet. It could be good I just don’t know.. What you should do is get joy 2 key. It’s easy to use and is free…

You just need to map mouse and keyboard to the game pad. Is it easy, yes, is it time consuming, yes, does it work? yes for over 200 hours just on Skyrim lol

If your a gamepad guy like me you just have to face facts. PC isn’t as easy to just plug and play with controllers, but you do have a lot of options as far as customizing layouts.

Its frustrating the first time you have to map controlls but its part of it so it is what it is, get used to it, then its easy.. Also try to map vorpx edge peek and cam recenter to buttons as well..

@Phil

Sure, here’s what I do.

Turn off all of VORPX’s game pad features and change the settings in Skyrim to disable the game pad. Make a note of the games default keybindings. Download and install ‘xpadder’, you should be able to find the older free version on the Web. Open it and map the default key bindings to the pad buttons, configure the right stick as a virtual mouse. I map right on the dpad to be a walk / run toggle. The only disadvantage is that you loose the nice analogue movement on the left stick.

Regarding your resolution problems. Open the Skyrim launcher go to options and set the resolution to 1080×1920, 16:9, letterbox. Select the ‘low’ graphic preset. Exit the launcher then boot Skyrim without Vorpx to confirm that 1080p is working. If it is, start Vorpx and restart Skyrim.

If it isn’t goto

C:\Users\username\Documents\My Games\Skyrim ) with notepad and change the iSize W= and iSize H= values to:

iSize W=1920
iSize H=1080

Save and close, restart Skyrim.

I can handle it in Skyrim

Oh, Skyrim? Any chance you could help me with the common issues I raised earlier in this thread (with link to the support thread)?

[CylonSurfer]

For the most part I think the new update is great, edge peak is sooo smooth now, but I have one niggle.

I keep getting an occasional camera jerk in all games, the overall performance seems spot on, but the jerkiness is really grating on me. In the previous version of VORPX I had GTA running perfect, it is almost the same in the new version but I get this odd jerk as if everything is playing catch up for a brief moment every now and then. I can handle it in Skyrim, which was a slide show in some areas in pervious versions and runs much better now, but the issue if very annoying in games previous to the update worked great and now don’t.

Is there anyway to run two versions of VORPX? I think I prefer the older one for GTAV..
