Hi ScarletSpirit,

Please make sure that you do not have any d3d9.dll in your Fallout NV folder (for example from an ENB mod), which conflicts with vorpX.

If you create shortcuts, you should create them for the main .EXE, not the launcher. In case of New Vegas that would be FalloutNV.exe.

If that doesn’t help: There are problems with Steam, which affect seemingly random games on different machines. Maybe that’s the case here. This is being worked on and will be fixed (hopefully in all cases) with the next update, due sometime next week.

Hope, that helps.

Hi Steampunkgears,

not sure what might be the issue here. Did you try with a clean and unmodded install of Skyrim? Skyrim is not known to cause issues normally. The Script Extender that is requested on that page might cause issues for example (although it seems to work in general).

One general thing you could try is to disable your virus scanner temporarily and see whether that helps. There might be a conflict between its memory protection and the way vorpX hooks into games.

If you haven’t done so before, please also take a look at the trouble shooting sticky.

I’m not too surprised about that, this is pretty much the same with the general Steam issue, that also happens on seemingly random machines (with seemingly random games). What surprises me more is that it happens thirty seconds into the game. But who knows what Steam does…

Be it as it may, there is a good chance that the coming update will solve this, provided it is indeed related to the general Steam problem.

Hi pac0master,

Your DeusEx problem might be related to a general Steam issue, which affects random games on random machines. Most likely a conflict between Steams copy protection and the way vorpX attaches itself to games. The next update, which is due sometime this week, has some changes in this regard, so there is a chance that your DXHR issue will be resolved, provided it is related.

Not sure what the issue with Black Mesa might be, since I don’t think it uses any copy protection. Can’t replicate the issue here, unfortunately.

[Ralf]

If that is the case, then there is some hope that the changes done to avoid startup crashes with some Steam games will also help with this issue. It would fit in so far as these issues also do not affect everyone.

Keep your fingers crossed, the update will be available within a week.

Hi All,
i confirm the cracked version of the game works fine.
Here is the checklist to play Bioshock Infinite with the Oculus Rift if you have bought the steam version of the game.

we have to replace the binary file BioShockInfinite.exe, set your language and copy your savegame files.

1. First, check your version of Bioshock (right click, details on the binary file). Normally you have the propriety “file version : 1.1.22.55730” if you have the last update.
2. Download only the crack for your version of Bioshock
search for “bioshock infinite 1.1.22.55730” for example
or go there
3. Run Update_v1.1.22.55730.exe from the /Update dir to install the Update
4. Copy over the cracked content from the /Crack dir to Binaries\Win32 dir.
6. then change the language in the ini files (LumaEmu.ini and Unleashed.ini for me) and in d:\Users\user_name\Documents\My Games\BioShock Infinite\XGame\Config\XEngine.ini language=XXX
7. You have to copy your savegame files too, from the steam clound
c:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\XXXXXXXX\8870\remote\savedata\ to local
c:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\SKIDROW\8870\Storage\savedata\

Many, hopefully most of these Steam crashes on startup will be solved in the first update (due sometime next week). This is most likely caused by a conflict between the Steam copy protection and the way vorpX ‘hooks’ into games. The strange thing is that it affects different games on different machines. Some don’t have it at all, others can’t start multiple games. Pretty nasty issue, but who knows exactly what Steam does…

I’m quite confident though that the coming update solves this in most, if not all cases.

Hi there I was trying to use the vorpx with Black Mesa Source and Deus Ex Human Revolution ( STEAM )

and I was not able to play at all. It start black and the game freeze. but Deus Ex just Freeze about 2 seconds after the launch. I don’t know what to do now.

I only have games from Steam.

I first tried to make the desktop shortcut and it didn’t work.
Then I tried to re-install the game and it didn’t work too.
I disabled my Antivirus software and it didn’t work.

I am not using any kind of Trainer or Hacks.
I am not using any kind of recording Software or plugin such as Google Hangout.

Please I need help!

here is my System Spec just in case

Windows 8 Premium x64
Intel i5-3330 3.00GHz
Geforce GTX 650 ti
8GB DDR3

Additional information
All my games on Steam are on my second Partition of my Hard Drive (D:). But Vorpx is on my First Partition(C:). I don’t know if it does anything.

I can not move my games to C: because it is lacking space.

I’m having the exact same problem. Every since I installed Vorpx, Steam games that are expected to hook with Vorpx crash at the launcher or barely into the game.
This includes:
Bioshock Infinite
Skyrim
Portal 2

Other steam games work fine (i.e. XCOM, Dawn of War 2 – anything not advertised as compatible with Vorpx). I’ve completely uninstalled Vorpx and I still get the crashing. Anyone have any ideas?

[Ralf]

The first update (due in a week or so) will have quite a few changes regarding the startup process. This should help with many (hopefully most) Steam/VAC related crashes on game start.

disabled steam overlay reset to defaults on my radeon 7970 and now I am getting the following message right after I press play in the menu

The direct3d 11 device has been removed or has crashed. This requires the game to exit. please ensure you have the latest drivers for your graphics device and restart the game. the sound still plays in the background until I clear the message

I installed via steam and also have this issue. There were 2 games I wanted to play on vorpx: bioshock infinite & portal 2. They both have this same issue. It is a beta so I’m sure it’ll get resolved eventually. I tried portal but that was nasty so I’ll just wait…

Just finished setting this game up and …wow!!! Looking forward to the high def res rift with this one. I have been playing this game in 3D for quite some time..but does not come close to what the rift does for this game. I found the following online and was for me.. very helpful….

For FOV changes Basically add the lines

Bindings=(Name=”F8″,Command=”FOV 100″,Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False)
Bindings=(Name=”F9″,Command=”FOV 110″,Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False)
Bindings=(Name=”F10″,Command=”FOV 120″,Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False)

to the [Engine.PlayerInput] part of your “AliceInput.ini” file (found in MyFiles\My Games\Alice Madness Returns\AliceGame\Config) … F8-F10, cause F11 doesn’t seem to work and F12 is reserved for Steam screenshots. Use whatever FOVs you like.

…but no stereoscopic.

All games I’ve tried have head tracking,
but everything is rendered for a monitor and is spread across both eyes on the rift.

I’m having trouble creating shortcuts for steam games to get the vorpx “hooks” working. And Farcry 3 is uplay, so forget that!

I also get no ingame menu when I hit the DEL key. No mouse middle wheel peek mode.

I’ve rebooted too many times, running the drive as administrator.

Any help would be appreciated.

not sure directx for Outlast. Its just supposed to be really scary so thought it could be fun.

When the driver works for the unsupported games it works really well and then sometimes it doesnt do anything. It seems to work more often than not so that is good. No complaints as I am having fun.

I am sure you will figure out more stuff as we go along just wanted to make sure wasnt missing out on something for the random games in my collection that dont want to convert at the moment.

Thanks!
