I disabled the -VR and will run only in VorpX mode for any game. The setup is easier, the in-game screens usually render off the rounded edges so you can’t see things like ammo count or minimaps. With VorpX, you can click your middle mouse button and unlock the head tracking from the cursor to a screen scroller so you can look down and left and instead of the screen showing the middle of your classic game (with the crosshairs in the middle of your “eyes”) you would see the bottom left corner of the actual square traditional screen.

Basically, the Rift display options take the sqaure screen and wrap it around a ball with the edges usually on the back half of the ball. They also do some tricks to make the left eye picture offset from the right eye so that you get the 3D effect. With VorpX, you can rotate the ball so that the part of the screen that was on the backside is now visible. Very handy for menus.

I also enjoy the screen that pops up when you hit DEL. Makes changing some settings very quick and easy, including disabling VR altogether (I clone the output to my 55″ TV just in front of my Rift and turning off the VR helps with seeing normally on that screen) and then can quickly turn it back on, so switching from Rift to traditional displays is super easy thanks to that menu.

There is a guy in my fantasy football league that calls his team the Gatekeeper but he has a picture of the Ringmaster up for his logo.

Go figure.

How about everyone who’s getting this issue shares their rig’s specs, just in case we see a correlation that might assist Ralf in resolving this issue?

I’ll start…

OS: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit (Windows Defender Anti-virus)
CPU:   Intel Core i5 4670k (@ 4.2 GHz)
Motherboard: Asus Z87-K
GPU: Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 Ti Top (OC’d to 1157mhz)
Memory: 8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport PC3-12800 (2 x 4GB)
Wireless Mouse + Keyboard

vorpX works fine for everything else I’ve tried, it’s just BI that has an issue.

My Lenovo Y510P with dual graphics does not have middle button. do i need to wait for my trackball to come in?
Will I be able to see that menu in the right corner of skyrim if I use the mouse?
How do I read text in Teamfortress trying to do the training and cant read a thing.

Half life 2 …looks great on laptop…says vorpX logo below stereo images…
but rift says no signal…team & sky seem to send video though.

Another game you can recommend that should work easy?
