Hello! I downloaded and re-installed vorpx today. And Nothing happened. I got the extended display stuff done, Rift is running, and everything ready. Rift works too, as i have tested some Rift native games. NO problem. But then i install vorpx and then nothing.

I was expecting the licenses thing to pop up since i may need to verify things and such but still nothing. I click on vorpConfig and still nothing. I just see a the loading ring near my icon and then nothing. Am i doing something wrong?

I excluded the vorpx folder from my anti virus too. I ran compatibility test and things. and still nothing! I thought it was the licenses thing blocking the program but cant even find a way to activate it! HELP!

Maybe its my visual c++ ? I have the 2013 version installed? maybe? what could it be? Steam? my window 7 being x64 ? is it my 32gb of ram? AMD’s control center app? halp!

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHZ 3.60GHz
AMD Radeon R9 290x

Thanks for reading!

Yes my games are in proper default locations within steam.

The only game on the list that I can get to optimise is Bioshock infinite.

This works really well, but others that I have have path errors, all are legit steam games in proper default locations.

Is there any plas to address this in future releases?

Portal 2: Do you use a non-default Steam setup (for example Portal 2 not installed in the Steam directory)? For Portal 2 the optimizer may rely on the game being in the default location (not 100% sure currently). So it may fail when you use a custom directory.

If applying the optimizer settings fails for a game, you can usually apply the most important setting (FOV) manually. Googling FOV + game name in many cases brings up easy to follow tutorials.

Just in case: Steam or not, for many games the optimizer can only work correctly for legit game versions.

Hi, I think vorpx, is a 3d fantastic tool.
however, much like I see some of these improvements or ideas.
Is there any possibility to include?
In this far these are for me the most important.
(sorry english it’s not my native language ;)

1:I would like to vorpx,option to enable/disable extra croshair from the menu ingame vorpx.One optional crosshair,or laser point to solve some problems in stereoscopic cases.(You could even customize form and color …)
This may require disable/ignore the current crosshair or laser point,depending on the game,but I think it would be a fantastic choice,to help in different cases.

2:Another idea that I would love, is the inclusion of an extra option in the menu ingame vorpx:
Player/weapon fov-adjustable,that could work very well as a route for some games. In some cases, this can also act as it currently does in flawless widescreen.
And let after adjusting the size of weapons is significantly modified with separation 3d in some games,besides the distance between the camera and “weapon”.

3:Possibility of including a small tool, for users trying to support some 3D titles not currently supported.
Thus, some users are more involved helping to improve and expand the list of vorpx compatibility.

4:added main tab,in the current interface vorpx(external),offering the ability to add shorcuts,to launch games from here optionally.
(for example,steam shorcuts or .exe in directories,added and launch from this panel)

5:Include more options in the current optimizer game setting.
Example:More options for scaling UI/GUI in 3d z-modes,and subtitles above,(for other languages without translation of voices) where possible from the files in several cases.
Example (outlast, oblivion, vanishing ethan carter) are perfectly playable, except subtitulos.No have voices for all languages.

More types of fov, sometimes present (camerafov outlast example) etc.

6:offer possibility 3d sbs mode(monitors,projectors and 3D TV)

Sorry my english.
Regards!

Hello,

I searched around in the forum but can’t find anything about my problem. I’ve tried Elder Scrolls Online with vorpx and it works very well.

Then i want to try Dirt 2, but it doesn’t work. Have tried to force dx9 by editing the hardware_settings_config.xml in the gamedir/system/ folder and in documents/My Games/Dirt2/hardwaresettings/ folder, but it doesn’t work.

So i tried Dirt3 but it also don’t work. But I think this is because I Dirt3 Complete Edition over Steam.

But i can’t figure out, why I can’t get Dirt2 working.

Has anybody an idea?

@goshops – I use OBS but with some games it doesn’t work correctly.
@all – so had someone correctly launched the Steam version with OBS?

I found that VorpX isn’t injecting into any games through steam. I tested this with Psychonauts. If I open the EXE directly it injects fine, but if I launch through Steam it doesnt. I think it may be to do with having steam set to run on administrator mode. I therefore tried to run vorpX as administrator. It prompts me for run as administrator but when I accept it seems to crash and hovering over the icon in the system tray makes it disappear. Looking at the task manager it appears not to be working. I then can’t get vorpX to run at all until I open the config first and take off the administrator setting.

Could you please help?

P.s. Psychonauts with Virtual Cinema is awesome!

P.p.s. Setting steam to not run as administrator makes everything work fine, so not urgent issue.

Thanks again Ralf… sorry to misuse this “steam games crash” thread for an FSX question. Not there yet, but I will continue to experiment. I am using Windows 8.1 and Nvidia GTX 680 by the way. I am now set up directly as you suggested rather than trying the various other modes I was experimenting with. Setting now is:

DK2 as extended desktop and set as screen 2
DK2 set to landscape flipped so its the right orientation for Windows 8.1
VorpX set to Show on Rift DK2
FSX set to 1920×1080, full screen selected

I am seeing in some tests a popup in FSX from Vorpx warning me that DX10 is 2D only… why might it think I have DX10 selected? I definitely do not have the “preview DX10” option ticked.. I checked that explicitly.

[Ralf]

Almost all games we are working with are Steam games.

The only important thing for the Steam FSX version is to start vorpX with admin rights (can be configured in the vorpX config app). Normally this should be avoided, but Steam for some reason starts FSX with admin rights, so vorpX also needs admin rights in this case to be able to hook into the program.

Hi folks… I am just catching up ahead of updating to 0.8.1 and planning to try FSX on my Oculus Rift DK2. The machine has FSX on Steam rather than my boxed version of FSX. I see some of the issues folks have had with Steam and Steam overlay.

Do we now expect Vorp 0.8.1 as updated to work with Steam games and FSX in particular? It would be good to know before I start to set this up.

[mcine]

I bought vorps because of this update and rf2 will hook up, but I cannot get it working well with 1920×1080.
xcom wont hook up (steam) , also tried couple thief-games and ms flight sim x.. does not hook up..
I think that the oculus installer installe 5.0.1 for me… can that be a problem ?

[mcine]

Do you have your main monitor set as display in rf2 settings so if your monitor is primary, rf settings should have primary ?

There is something really strange with resolutions. yesterday I tried with my 720p display and all worked, now I changed to headess ghost to run 1920×1080@75hz and rf2 still complains about resolution at start (says it is 1024×768 or something) and the picture is really small, virtual cinema looks like it is in portrait mode but the view is small in the midde. I tried to change the rift monitor setting to portrait but it went even more messed up. I also tried few other refresh rates, with different outcomes, but non of those worked. 1680×1050 seemed to work quite well with 59hz but not with higher rates (that is my other monitors native resolution). I tried different sync settings, but no help..

What resolution should I use? and what settings ?

I also tried other supproted games in steam (thief, ms flightsim x, xcom) and none of those worked at all.. are steam versoins supported at all?

[Ralf]

Are you sure that the FOV is set to 120?

Also do you have the same kind of effect in the Virtual Cinema lounge? If not, it’s the game FOV setting causing this.

Does look like games with a narrow FOV look without either an FOV fix applied or the image scaled down, respectively a letterbox AR mode used. You have to apply the 120° in the Game Settings Optimizer AND follow any additional instructions given there.

If the optimizer fails for some reason, here are manual instructions. Shouldn’t be necessary to do this yourself though.

Bioshock Infinite

(A bit complicated for Infinite unfortunately since the FOV is calculated as an offset.)

Please check whether a game you want to buy is supported by vorpX beforehand:

Supported Games

vorpX works with even more games than those on the list, but if you want Stereo 3D, it has to be supported.

Just like Steam games and most other things licensed digitally vorpX licenses cannot be shared or resold. Details about this can be found in the terms and conditions: https://www.vorpx.com/terms-conditions.
