Is Witcher 3 working for anyone anymore? This Amylion profile doesnt seem to be available anymore and with the standard Vorpx profile I just get a hang , no startup.

It used to work but new computer install and installation of DLC may have changed something…

@Ralph,, pls can u hint what graphic effects to use with CV1.

Watercooled I7 6900k, GTX1080TI watercooled, 6 ssd 500gb

Skyrim is perfect !
I do have skyrim at a 1920X1440 res. installed. No effects only vsync enabled.
The image is very clear , no coronas flickering or other distorting things just a pain clear image.

I do have GTA5 installed but the image is not comparable to skyrim its so bad.
The resolution is 1920X1440. The image has coronas, flickering no clear image fences look like flickering endless.

same in Witcher 3 (checked all resolution even 4k )slightly more clear as GTA5 but it looks like too crispy with little corona on everything

Fallout4 has a decent image almost comparable to Skyrim.

Which effects to avoid and which to use , i tried all day long and iam fed up now .
The image on screen is ok but in cv1 its all screwed pls give some hints

Does this also happen without the camera mod? Since the Witcher 3 is Z-Buffer 3D only I can’t really imagine how that might be caused by vorpX.

Horseback looks like this

Using the Absolute Camera mod to increase FOV and such. Everything works great…until I get on a horse. I reinstalled Witcher and reinstalled the mod, launched in normal monitor mode without any issues on horse back. Now, after just trying Vorpx and getting this issue, the problem is there even in normal mode without steamVR/vorpx running. It’s like something with running Vorpx introduces this issue that persists even when not in VR. Any tips?

Since some people seem to have problems to run “The Witcher 3” properly, I want to give my optimal settings for a GTX 1080 (@ 2 GHz), i7-6700K (@ 4,4 GHz) system.

Public profile
You can find the public profile under the nickname “Amylion”. It’s a virtual 3D cinema for 4:3 aspect ratio (e.g. 1920 x 1440) with black borders (no ambience). The stereoscopic effect is enhanced both in strength and distance weighting. That leads to a strong 3D effect with minimal distortion at the contours; the drawback is a diminished difference in depth effect on close objects. The black borders are important, because the fresnel lenses of current VR devices sadly amplify bright spots in the periphery overproportionally.

Resolution
The recommended resolution is 1920 x 1440.
Contrary to some rumours it doesn’t actually translate to supersampling. If you run native SteamVR apps at a Supersampling factor of 1 (that means without real supersampling at the center of the display), the app will render in 1512 x 1680 for each eye!
1920 x 1440 is comparable, because the virtual cinema doesn’t cover the whole field of view. But if you go lower than that, the pixels in the center of the image will get stretched and look bad!

Gamma setting
The biggest issue are the gamma settings. It seems to be bugged. Even the highest in-game gamma settings are way too dark. Most details get lost in almost every scene, especially in dark in-door rooms with some light sources like candles.

You have to manually edit the “user.settings” file in the “The Witcher 3” folder in your Windows documents folder.

Set the “GammaValue=1.0” to “GammaValue=2.0”. Start the game normally for a quick test. It should look very bright and washed out (sometimes it fails to load the configuration properly), but in the headset it will look normal (= great).

Input
In the same folder you can edit “input.settings” file to change the inputs that for some mysterious reason are locked in the in-game UI. For example I put the inventory on my Mouse5 button.

These settings will work flawlessly on a system with a GTX 1080. You probably can even go higher in some areas (shadows or grass / foliage).

Have fun!

2. Bioshock 2

I’m puzzled. On my machine (Win10) the DirectVR hack of “Bioshock 2” crashed every 10 minutes, it was unplayable. I had to play it in normal Vorpx mode. I found the gameplay very annoying, repetitive and pointless. It was a struggle to finish the game.

“Bioshock 3” works well in DirectVR, but has some issues with shadows, lighting and in-game videos not showing. You will miss some facets of the story without even noticing.

My personal list:
Since I’ve never expected a true, native VR experience from VorpX, I mostly enjoyed the 3D cinema mode. I still have to reset my headset way below my normal head position, because Ralf doesn’t seem to be able to deal with or even acknowledge this bug, but whatever: It works. No longer neck stiffness from looking above all the time.

That said I had lots of fun in “Dragon Age 1”, “Dragon Age 2”, “Dragon Age: Inquisition”, “Resident Evil Revelations”, “Gothic 3”, “The Witcher 3”, “Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons”, “Bioshock 1”.

Ehh. Another bust. Getting tired of every game not working with Vorpx.

There is no FOV slider native to witcher 3.
Only FOV tweaks I can find are outdated mods on Nexus.
You can use cheat engine to adjust the FOV, but it breaks cutscenes.

[Zehm]

Gotta ask, why does the VorpX “supported games” list say Witcher 3 is supported when there is no profile for the game. That means that its NOT supported right?

[Zehm]

After playing around for a while I’ve managed to get the game to launch.

Start VorpX.
Go to the taskbar and right click on the Vorpx icon.
Select “create desktop short cut” and select the location of the Witcher 3 exe
Run W3 from the shortcut.

Now I’ve got other problems.

The FOV is all wrong.
The scenery warps and bends with camera movement.

[Zehm]

I’m having the same problem. What do you mean Oliiiiive? Pause Watcher? Do you mean Witcher, or is that something else? How do you do that?

[thomasnk]

Hi,
I have a Vive with Witcher 3 GOG version, but the game is always starting in normal mode, what do i need to do to get in in VR?

[EphemeralSagacity]

Just answering this here too:

Found a working solution. Used “The Witcher” as the base profile.
Then make sure the following is disabled for nwn2 settings:
Graphics->Quality Options->Bloom Effects

Very cool. A fresh breath of life for this old game.
