Which only happens to work in Skyrim without creating glitches because in this game some settings are forced by vorpX regardless whether you disable auto settings or not.

To everyone else reading this: please do not disable vorpX’s auto settings feature in any game unless you are fully aware that doing so can and will screw up some games completely and even if it doesn’t, will usually do a lot more harm than good.

Apologies if this has been covered before, but I couldn’t find what I’m looking for.

I’m using the Vorpx Skyrim profile, with DirectVR and full geometry mode. Everything is essentially working fine. But when I put Skyrim into third person mode, I find the headtracking behavior very disorienting. Whichever direction I look, the camera position swings wildly in the opposite direction, to keep the character in the center of the view. This is making me reach for the bucket.

I’m wondering if there’s some combination of VorpX settings, Skyrim tweaks and mods, that keeps the camera following the player character, but allows for looking around freely, without the character always kept central. So that, for example, if I looked up and to the right, I would be looking at a patch of sky, without the camera swinging down below the player, to keep him in shot.

Just to correct to things I said in the previous post…

The tweaks I use in Vorpx inside Skyrim is Sharpen Amount set to 1,75 and Internal Resolution Upscale set to 2,0.

Sorry my mistake.

Hello

Sorry my english, but it’s not my native language.

I’m where to ask if any body have tried to play Skyrim (the original 32 bit version, aka Oldrim) in VR with the FOV set to 0 (zero). Yes, I know it’s sounds crazy, whem Vorpx sugest to use a FOV of 110 and the Bethesda default FOV for Skyrim 2D is 75 (or is 65?), but I did this experiment a couple of days a go and I’m just loving the image quality improvements.

For me, the screen door effect is much, much less noticeable and NPCs, houses, horses, trees, moutains, anything!, are bigger and much more present, like they were of real size! Now, whem “I” walk in the game’s I fell like I am walking in a real world!

Yes, there is some less field of view, but the loss (for me!) is not dramatic (but the improvements are!). I don’t fell at all the loss of the extra FOV. To say the true, I fell like there is some kind of image distortion (and I hate this!) with high FOV values, especially whem Skyrim is played in a monitor.

I have changed the FOV settings in skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini to 0, to make the FOV change permanent in VR, but if you want to try just for a moments, you just need to get to the console’s game (press the key bellow ESC key) and enter the command “FOV 00” (without the quotes). To reverse this just enter the command FOV 110.

You can also try the field of view with any other number. I tried first with 90 and I liked. Them, I tried with lower numbers (75, 60, 40 and 10) and I always liked even more, so I ended with the FOV at zero! A friend of mine, who also plays Skyrim, cames to my house to try the game again in VR and he said that he also like much more the VR experience with the field of view set to zero.

And I must said that with last Vorpx version (17.3.2), last Steam VR version (it upgrades yesterday, i think) and some others tweaks in VorpX (I think is supersampling set to 2 and sharpness set to 1,75), the VR experience with HTC Vive now makes really worth the money I paid for!

Disadvantages? The only disadvantage I found is that, because things are bigger and more present, you will notice more easily any delay in image movement, especially when you use higher resolutions with the inevitable lower frames per second (I’m using 1600×1200 in a GTX 980 ti). However, I didn’t find any change in the FPS numbers with FOV set to 110 or set to 0.

Warning 1 – If you, like me, use Mod Organizer to play Skyrim and want to make a new FOV value change permanent, you must change skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini inside Mod Organizer. To change only skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini in your Documents Skyrim folder’s game it’s not enough.

Warning 2 – You should always make a backup of skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini before change this files!

Warning 3 – If you are prone to VR sickness, maybe to use a FOV’s value to low it’s not a very good idea, especially with FPS per lent bellow 45. You should try first with carefull!

Right now i’m testing this list and good results with Skyrim(DX9) and Dishonored, Direct VR works really impressive. But Borderlands Pre-Sequel Rotation: Fail, FOV: Fail, Position: OK, any magic config tipps for me?

[Tiggerdyret]

Impossible unless someone makes a mod, which they probably won’t or I’d have already been done. It might not even be possible with the current modding tools anyway. I think your best bet is to wait and hope for a PC release of SkyrimVR, when the PS exclusivity has been lifted.

Hello
Can anybody tell me if it is possible to configure or to add a mod to skyrim that makes me swing my controller to swing my weapon ? (or the equivalent with the bow ?)
thanks in advance

How does Skyrim work now with 17.30? Has anyone tested it? I doesnt have Skyrim and the Vorpx installed atm and wanted to ask before I am planing to do it.

Cool, the ini solution is perfect, thanks!

About the feedback – the message has no value in a real use situation (for me). If the user has decided to map the DirectVR switch to a button (which is not by default) then they have a use case in mind and activate it when they need it. And in those cases it is quite obvious if DirectVR is on or off.
In practice the shortcut is needed when the control is detached from the player character (free cam or animations) and DirectVR can’t handle that situation which is immediately obvious by the fact that there is no more head tracking.
For example one of my uses of this shortcut is together with a free cam. I have the free cam and the DirectVR switch mapped to the same key and whenever I feel like flying around or checking out different items or spaces around me, I press the button and everything works.
For me this message is the same as a message that would appear every time when I press “w” to inform me that I have taken a step forward. However I do understand that there may be use cases that I’m not aware of where such a message has a meaning, that’s why I asked for an option to disable it (together with the other 3 similar messages).

Added:
I understand some people will consider this a small problem, but I do believe the conventional UI elements are a bad thing for VR. I do use a HUD removal mod for Skyrim, I spent quite some time editing the ini files of FO4VR to hide as much of the UI as possible, I have disabled the Steam overlay completely so no popups for achievements, I did refund Mage’s tale because of it’s constant “Game saved” message that can’t be disabled. I understand different people have different priorities, but for me the flat UI elements and logic in VR is a serious problem. Just wanted to explain why I’m complaining so much about the messages.

Hello,

first off, thanks for great software.

I’m currently playing Skyrim SE with VorpX and have some problems with Positional VR and smithing. When player activates the forge or tempering grinding stone, game seems to move player to another spot. However, this spot is usually off the map or inside the walls.

One solution is to turn Positional VR (or Direct VR) off temporarily while you do crafting. However, there are two problems:
1) there is no hotkey for Positional VR
2) I can’t rebind Direct VR hotkey to VorpX Shift+middle mouse quick menu

If I try to set the hotkey for quick menu key bind looks like: A|B which I assume is Alt+B. Shortcut does not activate anything so I assume it’s read only by Skyrim.

Is there any chance to add hotkey for Positional VR which is possible to set up for VorpX quick menu?

I made a video which shows the problem:

* 00:11 Positional VR on. Using crafting table pushes player character inside the walls/ground.
* 01:20 Positional VR off. You can rotate around the tanning rack but this is ok as character does not get stuck.
* 01:43 Direct VR off. Crafting works normally.

Oldrim + MO works with the new version. Two things to try to debug:

1. It seems the updates still reset the VorpX settings, so make sure to enable Run as Administrator in VorpX config after every update. There is a warning shown when you do that, but if you play modded Skyrim you need this enabled.

2. It seems the new VorpX versions breaks with some ini optimisations that were working until now. I haven’t narrowed it down yet, but for me the game was unplayable after the update until I got a fresh set of ini files.
Copy the current ini files somewhere and delete them. Start the game in a normal way and quit it. It should have created fresh ini’s.
If using MO – copy/paste the content of the new ini files into the ini editor of MO.

[MarkG]

Yep, they broke it somehow.

Today I thought, ‘I know, I haven’t played Skyrim in ages, let’s have a go’. But, lo, VorpX must update, which is so often bad news.

And so, it turned out that VorpX no longer works with Skyrim and Mod Organizer. My Mod Organizer profile works fine without VorpX. Skyrim works with VorpX without Mod Organizer. I created a brand-new VorpX profile with only the default Skyrim files, and it still crashes on startup when run with VorpX.

Can you fix this, please? This is pretty much the only thing I use VorpX for, so breaking it has made the software pretty much useless for me.

Alternatively, can you give me a way to go back to a previous version, as I was quite happy with the working setup I had before this.

Thanks Ralf

Thanks Ralf i read a lot on the forum from you.
I have change it in SkyrimPrefs end it works now the next thing is my big hands.
and it is possible without mods because when I start mods, I can not reach game achiefments.
and it is possible that you only play via your headset I think that saves a lot of FPS. i have Nvidia i look already in my control center but i am a newbie!

PS my fps is around 42-45 outdoors in snow its a test place if i have it working a start a new game.
