ok, thank you.

only one thing to conclude: I have already applied the dgvoodoo to the game, and in fact until a few days ago it worked perfectly without the error of “oculus not found”

The game that showed this issue in your logfile (Thief 3 – Deadly Shadows) is not supported by vorpX. Unsupported games may or may not work. This is doubly true for old DX7/8 games that require an additional modded DLL like dgVoodoo to potentially work at all.

If you encounter the same issue with an officially supported game, please resend a trouble shoot data archive after trying this supported game.

Inquisition (DGVoodoo2) – G3D

The DX8 RPG game from 2002 reminds a bit on “Thief:Deadly Shadows”. You must rather hide behind walls then beating your enemies down.

– Requires DGVoodoo2
– Press Start on Startscreen very soon, elsewise VorpX wont hook
– Profile availiable from the cloud

Hello :)

I’ve been using vorpx with two games, Thief Gold and Deus Ex. Both work great except for some slight jitter with the head tracking. It’s very slight, and seems arbitrary. It’s a little hard to describe, but it seems to pick a random direction and just move the view point slightly in that direction over time. It’s easier to notice when I take the headset off and look at a menu. The mouse cursor tracks slowly across the screen.

I’ve played with the sensitivity settings, but the issue persits even at very low sensitivities. I’m a novice when it comes to vorpx settings, so any advice as to what else I could try would be greatly appreciated.

<strong class=”d4pbbc-bold”>Thief: Deadly Shadows (DGVoodoo2) – G3D

– DGVoodoo2 required
– update game
– use immersive screen mode or cinema, in FULL VR compass sticks to screen
– profile does NOT work with “sneaky upgrade” because there is a too large time gap beetween switching beetween windows/menus where VorpX can not hook back
– unpatched game provides 1600×1200 px ingame settings max.
– profile availiable from the cloud

PERFECT JOB!!! :)

if you can try watch dogs: it has some “night” problems with the shadows…

Tough to choose five, but I guess my favorites are:

– Fallout 3
– Enderal (Skyrim total conversion)
– Kingdom Come Deliverance
– Bioshock Infinite
– Thief (the remake from a few years ago)

Honorary mentions for Ori and the Blind Forest and Trine in cinema mode. So much better than on a monitor.

<strong class=”d4pbbc-bold”>Important News for Windows7 user

I have managed to create a profile which provides G3D with DGvoodoo2 on Windows 7. There is a very good chance that this profile will work with many DX8 games, but unfortunatley i am not able to verfiy this on Windows 8/10 at the moment.

Before i properly upload and name any games to the cloud , <strong class=”d4pbbc-bold”>i need your assistance for Unreal 2..

Please download this profile and add it to VorpX. Then rename Unreal2.exe to Unreal22.exe and see if you get a clean G3D on Windows 8/10. Also check if you experience problems with HUD.

Beside Unreal2 i have tested Schizm 2 today with the same profile susccessfully.

can thief 2 or deus ex 1 run with this profile?
with standard thief 2\deus ex profiles, there are no g3d, or a bad g3d

i’ve tried thief 2 with vorpx, and it has only z-normal (and not good)

You could try the system shock 2 profile with the thief dx9 mod.

Thanks for confirming my assumptions.

I figured out I had to disable the pimax gyro to disable positional tracking from the vorpx in-game menu a couple of days ago. There seems to be no other way through the regular config or settings files.
So usually the workflow is: I reinstall vorpx, disable the gyro through piplay, disable the positional tracking through vorpx ingame, quit the game, re-enable the gyroscope, and restart the game.
I had really expected this to be the problem, but the spinning problem remained.

There are no fancy gamepad/joystick/etc. programs running. It’s a reasonably clean rig. No sticky keys either. I just got a new logitech m90 mouse today, very simple, similair to the previous trust mouse, but it made no difference.

I’m testing Jedi Knight 2, Kotor, The Stanley Parable and Thief 2. Halflife 2 I test only sporadically as I had other issues with it.

What did you mean by “They won’t look perfect on your monitor, but will look better in the headset.” Any color artefacts by chance? Because the games tend to look fine on the monitor but have issues with color on the headset. There are some weird things going on the main monitor like the jedi knight 2 logo on the title screen spinning like crazy when head tracking is enabled, but that’s nothing compared to the entire world spinning in the headset. The title screen from Kotor is similar, darth malak looks like he had way too much coffee on the monitor.

Is it correct that normally in a supported fps game, you can move the camera with the headtracking from the headset but also with the mouse/gamepad/keyboard?
Is there any way to disable everything but the headtracking as camera control?

I fiddled around with the gamepad emulation mode, didn’t help, but also didn’t stop the camera from being controllable with the mouse. This was all with the gyro off, change setting, quit game, gyro on, restart game process.

Last week I sent a number of emails to the support address with attached vorpx logs and have not gotten any reply.

I recently bought Vorpx and have spent the past week trying out a number of games. All of them are supported games (Jedi Knight 2, Kotor, Thief 2, Half-Life 2, The stanley parable). None of these games work.

I have a reasonably clean rig with a 1080ti & pimax 4k running windows
10. The headset works fine with steamvr games & unity. I can run the games perfectly fine without vorpx.
Vorpx does hook into the games, but what it shows on the headset seems
to be a high speed rotating texture that shows the game in probably
16 colors. The Vorpx desktop viewer has the same problem.

Half-Life 2 is an exception, it does not display on the headset at all.

The Pimax is set to “Pimax mode” and Vorpx device selection is set to “Steamvr”. I also have the profile for the respective game loaded before I start it.
Piplay & steamvr are running in the background before I start vorpx.
I also upgraded to the latest version of Piplay and NVidia drivers which did not change anything. I tried reinstalling vorpx with no result. Both the headset and the monitor are plugged into the 1080 Ti. There are no additional monitors.

When I turn off “Enable head tracking” it no longer spins but that also removes an important part of the Vorpx functionality.

How do I get these supported games to work?

up, i want to play thief 2 in g3d!
