    I have the following hardware: RTX 3080, Windows 11, Meta Quest 3, and a 5 GHz router, but I’m not sure it supports Wi-Fi 6.

    I’m connected to three monitors; that might be a lot, but even when I disable them, I don’t really notice any change.

    I can connect Meta’s Air Link without much trouble, though I sometimes get an error because the 2.4 GHz band seems to be missing — yet the connection still works.

    I try to launch Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, but I get lost in the settings. I can start the game on the PC, but it never launches the display in the VR headset.

    I’ve tried many things, and it’s quite confusing for me to sum up all the (likely) wrong manipulations causing bugs. The whole setup feels rather erratic. I even noticed that the game’s settings (in 4/5 resolution) would reset when I launched it.

    I tested with Fallout 3 to see if I could at least make another game run through VorpX, and that worked quite well.

    Could you share any feedback, general advice, or essential steps to make this game work properly?

    —————– (version original de mon post en français)—————-

    Je possède le hardware suivant : rtx3080 Windows 11 Meta Quest 3 Un routeur en 5 GHz, mais je ne suis pas convaincu qu’il est Wi-Fi 6
    Je suis connecté à 3 écrans, c’est peut-être beaucoup, mais même quand je les désactive, je n’ai pas vraiment l’impression d’un changement.
    Je parviens sans trop de problème à connecter Air Link de Meta, j’ai parfois une erreur car la bande 2.4 GHz semble être absente, mais la connexion se fait.
    Je tente de lancer Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, mais je m’y perds dans les réglages. Je parviens à lancer le jeu sur le PC, mais jamais à lancer l’affichage dans le casque VR.
    J’ai essayé beaucoup de choses et c’est assez confus pour moi de récapituler toutes les (probables) mauvaises manipulations sources de bugs. L’ensemble me paraît assez erratique. J’ai même constaté que le paramétrage du jeu (en résolution 4/5) sautait quand je le lançais.
    J’ai testé avec Fallout 3 pour voir si j’arrivais quand même à faire tourner un autre jeu avec VorpX, et cela a été un succès sans trop de problème.
    Pourriez-vous me donner des retours d’expériences ou des conseils généraux, ou des impératifs absolus pour réussir à utiliser ce jeu ?

    I played Deathloop and Redfall with a free gamepass offer a few years ago. I regret concerning Deathloop because it have been offered on Epic, I don’t wan’t to pay the gamepass, and I can’t transfer my save ;)

    I guess most games work. It was hard to use G-Hub with the gamepass (I had to use a profile directly in my mouse), but it was possible to use VorpX. If I remember correctly, I had to add the process instead of the file in order to link with unsupported games. If you don’t create your own profile, you shouldn’t need to.

    F.E.A.R. and Titanfall 2 were both great back in the day, but I’m not sure how you’re defining “old school shooting games,” exactly.

    Thanks for the update, Ralf. The performance and visuals are significantly better than in the old version. Unfortunately, the weapon handling settings in Fallout 4 aren’t saved. No matter what you set there, it’s always set to Auto Hide after a game restart. This can also be checked with the Last Saved button.

    On some PCs the vorpX service can’t handle the virtual monitor due to fairly convoluted Windows access rights issues. I implemented a fallback method for affected configurations in the meantime. Will come with the next maintenance update. Until then manually enabling like you did is the right workaround.

    Thanks Ralf. Tried resetting the game graphics to default – no change. Even deleted the profile and shader folders in users/<user>/Saved Games/kingdomcome to force them to be recreated – no change. Verified game files with steam but still have the issue. There’s a flicker when I switch between 3d off and z-adaptive but both z-buffer modes still look flat with no 3d (3d strength is set to 2.00). Z-Buffer modes are working fine with Fallout 3. Short of reinstalling both game and vorpx not sure what else to try

    Hello, I’m a new VorpX user and I’m eager to get a 3D patch for the game WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers. What should I do, or when will the VorpX developer update the game list to include a profile for this title?

    The prior ‘OpenXR (Windows Mixed Reality)’ selection simply reads ‘OpenXR’ now, just a cosmetic change. No underlying technical changes except updating the OpenXR library to the latest version.

    Probably the WMR OpenXR runtime is outdated and doesn’t support the latest OpenXR API version. There will be a small update shortly that falls back to OpenXR 1.0 if a runtime doesn’t support 1.1. Until then please use SteamVR instead.

    At some point OpenXR 1.1 may become mandatory though, so please direct any potential future complaints in this regard at Microsoft for abandoning WMR.

    25/08/30 | vorpX 25.1.1 has been released

    This maintenance update brings some OpenXR improvements, carves out more precious GPU memory, enhances Quest controller support with SteamVR and fixes a bug where Z3D became heavily pixelated after switching 3D modes.

    Auto-updating from 24.1.0 and 25.1.0 will likely fail (sorry!), you may have to reinstall manually with your web installer. If you didn’t keep it, you can get one here: click

    • OpenXR: auto switch to Quest Link or SteamVR if no active OpenXR runtime is set.


    25/08/28 | vorpX 25.1.0 has been released

    This update reunites the regular and the ‘cutting edge’ branches. For those who until now used the regular version it brings three major new features: motion controller gestures, a rewritten desktop viewer and a virtual monitor.

    Those who already used the cutting edge build can skip to the full changelog at the bottom of this post to check what has changed since then.

    Motion Controller Gestures

    You can now map predefined motion controller gestures to key presses and gamepad actions. Aminig down sights, reloading, melee combat, steering wheels and a lot more gestures are available to turn flat games into more immersive VR experiences. While not every game benefits from gestures in the same manner, some (e.g. first person shooter games) can actually feel close to native VR that way. Even seated just a handful of gestures can tremendously improve immersion compared to playing with a gamepad or mouse/keyboard.

    Various profiles already have gestures predefined, try e.g. Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, Titanfall 2 or Aliens Colonial Marines. More will follow. For other games you can easily define gestures yourself. Be amazed how easy that is and how well it can work. Check the video below for a brief introduction.

    Desktop Viewer Rewrite

    The rewritten desktop viewer now handles high GPU load a lot more stable and also addresses a bunch of annoyances the old desktop viewer had, e.g. the inability to display Windows admin rights prompts.

    If vorpX can’t hook a game, try the new desktop viewer. Especially in tandem with the third new feature the vorpX desktop viewer now is the ultimate VR flat game cinema.

    Virtual Monitor

    The new virtual monitor finally makes running games at higher resolution than your actual monitor allows a breeze. All important resolutions are predefined, and you can easily add more if you want in the config app.

    Added benefit for desktop capturing and playing games unhooked with the desktop viewer: the virtual monitor always runs at the refresh rate of your headset, which removes any form of micro stutter that normally is the result of capturing e.g. a 60Hz monitor and displaying it on a 90Hz headset.

    The easiest way of using the virtual monitor is launching the vorpX desktop viewer and putting on your headset. Per default vorpX will then switch to its virtual monitor.

    Full Changelog

    Biggest changes from official (21.3.5) to last cutting edge build (24.1.0)

    • Motion Controller gestures that easily let you map VR controller gestures to key/button presses. vorpX gaming as close to native VR as never before.
    • A virtual monitor has been added that lets you play games at arbitrarily high resolutions and always has the exact same refresh rate as your headset, which is especially great in cunjunction with the desktop viewer. The smoothest VR desktop experience ever.
    • Desktop viewer rewritten to minimize CPU/GPU usage, get rid of a few annoyances, and work great with the new virtual monitor.

    Biggest changes since 24.1.0

    • Redesigned rendering/post-fx pipeline that significantly reduces the amount of GPU memory used by vorpX at high resolutions.
    • Custom memory manager that keeps memory allocated by vorpX separated from game memory as much as possible. Improves general stability everywhere, most notably when using high resolutions with some 32-bit games, e.g. Dragon Age Origins, Venetica.
    • Special treatment for 32-bit games able to handle more RAM than the usual 32-bit 2GB limit. vorpX can now detect and directly utilize the extra memory. If you encounter crashes with 32-bit games at high resolutions, check the internet for tools that make them ‘large address aware’. Note that trying that with modern 64-bit games has no effect, those can use all your RAM per default.
    • Major (ongoing) spring cleaning continued: lots of internal changes and refactorings that improve general stability and/or help keeping the developer of this Tower of Babel happy.

    Noteworthy smaller changes/fixes since 24.1.0

    • Optimized texture sharing between game and vorpX threads. Fixes DX12 black screen caused by nVidia driver 580.88+ and in general may/should be a bit smoother under high GPU load.
    • Improved cursor tracking. Fixes cursor flicker e.g. in AC:Valhalla/Odyssey.
    • Cinema mode uses reduced lightmap sizes in 32-bit games that aren’t large address aware to squeeze out some extra GPU RAM for higher resolutions.
    • DX9: Some rarely/never encountered StateBlock related stuff handled. Just in case.
    • DX9: Hooking related changes that may improve hooking reliability in some cases.
    • DX9: Generic 3D/Headset modes did not work on some AMD GPUs
    • DX9: Fixed an issue that could cause games to hang on device creation.
    • DX9: Fixed an issue that could cause games to crash on display mode change.
    • DX9: Fixed an issue that could cause games to crash on load (e.g. GTA IV).
    • DX9: Fixed an issue that could cause games to hang fullscreen (e.g. Splinter Cell 3).
    • DX9: The start scene had some weird render glitches in ‘Generic VR headset’ mode.
    • DX10: Potential exception on init (e.g. Crysis DX10)
    • DX11: Support some rarely used DX11 features (e.g. WoW non-legacy DX11)
    • DX11: Improved G3D performance, up to 300%! Don’t get too excited though, that is an outlier. Usually expect anything from 0%-15%.
    • DX11: More efficient multithreading. Improves FPS in some games (e.g. Elex 2).
    • DX11: Image was garbled in some games, e.g. ArmaA III (24.1.0 regression).
    • DX11/12: Optimized shader bookkeeping. Can save >200 MB of RAM (e.g. HZD).
    • DX12: More efficient resource bookkeeping. Up to 20% better FPS (e.g. Uncharted 4).
    • DX12: Fix for hiccups/uneven FPS in some games (e.g. The Last of Us/Uncharted 4).
    • DX12: display mode switching/window resizing failed for some games (e.g. Far Cry 6)
    • DX12: various authoring hotkeys did not work.
    • Tracking: The jump/crouch detection didn’t work correctly anymore.
    • vorpX control: App could crash on startup (24.1.0 regression).
    • vorpX control: App could crash after installing hook helpers.
    • vorpX control: App could hang after running for a while.

    Hello Ralf, thank you so much for taking the time to reply from your busy schedule! I really appreciate it.

    So, it seems there might be an issue detecting what is the the max height of the image VorpX sends to the headset, since its DEFINITELY short from double the game resolution.

    It falls so short, that I see clearly LOTS of aliasing everywhere (even the window border). I will go so far to say, that the image quality is not THAT FAR off my VivePro’s when supersampling… while having literally 6 times more pixels, and rendering about 4 times more pixels.
    When I lean into the floating window, I can see all the extra detail I was missing that the game was actually rendering, which suggests the image the game is rendering is way higher resolution than the image the HMD is receiving.

    (Again, for clarity’s sake, the sweetspot of my HMD should be able to catch around 5500p worth of resolution (45PPD).
    Rendering at 4860p, although a high resolution, when on a big screen spanning most of my view, it should still NOT be supersampling, since it fails to get to 1:1)
    (As a note, the resolution of the HMD is 3552×3880 per eye)

    Could it be that Custom Resolutions on vorpX virtual monitor, are not working as they are intended and sending a lower resolution due to the huge numbers?

    I’ve gone as far as to literally unplug both my monitors and exclusively use VorpX’s virtual monitor set at the game’s resolution, 4860p, to no avail. (I’ve tried multiple games that use different engines, all have the same exact issue).

    For extra info, I’m also using a SteamVR native HMD, so I’m guessing there should be no compositor shenanigans going on… (and just in case tried with the inhouse compositor the HMD also has, which changes nothing).

    I’m not even trying to mess with 3D or VR modes yet to remove variables (although I’ve tried with the same issues, in fact, aliasing usually becomes even more glaring and worse when activating them).

    I have also tried launching from VorpX Desktop (which also isn’t really usable due to low resolution of the HMD (not the desktop)) with no luck whatsoever.

    I did also test older VorpX versions, just in case. No luck either.

    I hope this info-dump helps you in some way to figure out the issue. If you need anything else, I will gladly try to help to get this resolved! I really hope the issue isn’t on my side, but with so many HMDs and so many variables… you never know.
    I tried with 2 different (similarly spec PCs), since I did upgrade the whole system, but both had this same issue.

    TLDR:
    I tried all that and sadly it doesn’t work :(

    Maybe there is an issue with detecting what is the the max height of the image VorpX sends to the headset when resolutions per eye are so ridiculously high?

    I love this profile! Had to upgrade vorpx to version 24.1.0 to see it from cloud profiles.

    I play it in Z-normal mode using cinema mode. I adjusted 3d strength from 2.0 to 3.0 and was amazed.

    It is almost the same as the G3D experience I got from playing Jedi fallen order! Thanks, Ralph!
