Could someone please provide me with the latest official VorpX profiles by Ralf for DirectX 12 required Unreal Engine 4 games?

The only one i know so far is Grounded in dx12 !

But please dx12, only !

Hi,

I’m new to Vorpx. I’ve managed to get it working for Portal 2, which is great.

I’m using a Pico 4 with virtual desktop and a windows 11 laptop.

Now I’m trying to get Vorpx to hook Hogwarts Legacy.

I’ve downloaded the beta, but I can’t seem to get the game to hook. I’ve tried the 3x cloud profiles available for the game. I’ve also tried a couple that are unreal engine 4/dx12 only too. I’ve been setting the file as the HogwartsLegacy.exe in the win64 subfolder of the installation directory. Is that the right one? Or should it be the steamlink desktop one?

I’ve tried installing hook helpers and alternative hooking and that still doesn’t work.

The logs seem to say there’s an error setting fov as there’s no hmd. But even if I try to pre-launch SteamVR the process still fails.

I’ve been through the trouble shooting and don’t appear to have any conflicting programs running.

I read in a different post something about letting the shaders load before attaching vorpx but I’m not sure how to do that?

And am I missing a process step here? Should I be loading up the Vorpx desktop monitor and launching the game via that rather than via virtual desktop?

Any ideas?

Ralf got us so hooked, LOL…

But seriously, great topic, and one i’m passionate about, so i just have to add my thoughts.

I’m a gamer who plays for the experience, which sometimes can be “life-changing”. Did i hear someone laugh? Bear with me for a moment (and excuse all the fighting with the English language :). I remember that in the 80s i watched “Star Wars: A New Hope” for the first time – i was a child then – and i can honestly say that it *did* change my life. It influenced my choice of profession, it contributed to my visual sensitivity and my style as an artist, and even influenced my way of thinking.

Games do similar things for me, albeit, as a grown-up, on a smaller scale. I still remember how i felt while exploring the dungeons of “Quake” in the 90s, the sense of wonder and complete detachment from real-life in “Unreal”… I dreamt multiple times, like being really there, of the assault on the Chernobyl plant in the 1st STALKER game. I still now and then think about the stories & characters of “Mass Effect” and “Dragon Age”, and i still often ponder the mankind-old questions about consciousness and self-awareness i was confronted with in SOMA. I could go on and on, but it’s getting excessive…

This is what kind of gamer i am. I don’t care about MP games or competition, combat and looting have always been a means to an end and IMO should be well balanced with story / characters / world building to remain fun. So you’d understand why the current native VR games don’t interest me. Thanks to vorpX i can enjoy “real” games with even more immersion, sense of scale, being inside the game-world etc. Oh and it’s the biggest upgrade to all those classic game experiences.

>>>>>i often wonder how anyone can even barely “enjoy” a game on such a small 31-inch screen.<<<<<

I still play flat from time to time, when the friction of current VR tech starts to annoy me too much, but then again i have an 38″ curved ultrawide monitor with DIY ambilight (got the idea from vorpX ambient background in immersive screen!). But it’s still inferior to what vorpX offers and i always come back to strapping a brick to my face.

>>>>>we are getting an overload with great games and i understand that if one ain´t “careful”, you´re getting too much of your beloved hobby and lose some joy and interest in it.<<<<<

This is a point that i’ve always been worried about since my teen years, so i’ve made a habit to always making sure that the things i “consume” (movies, games, books etc) are well chosen and only the best of the best. I’m never gonna play a samurai game because it’s the only samurai game in existence on PC – i’m gonna wait until some studio releases an excellent GOTY level samurai game and then i’m gonna play it. :)

Oh, and i refuse to play multiple games at the same time. I need to immerse myself fully. If a game doesn’t “catch” me after a couple of hours, i uninstall. And maybe re-try years later. But i do careful research and this doesn’t happen often.

Gotta get back to work, but i’m looking forward to my adventure in Undvik tonight. vorpX in Reverb G2 @2560×1440 Immersive Screen – i couldn’t imagine a better way to play “The Witcher 3”, even though i sometimes wish for a higher resolution and less screen door effect… It’s never enough, right? :)

Thanks Luka! In the video I use a tool called Universal Unreal Engine Unlocker for 120 fov and It Is marvelous! because we can change the Fov in all Unreal games. Is there any diference? And another question, could I use the mod for another games or only in Atomic Hearts?

Only big issue of UUU is that fov set there will be locked game wide, unable to be changed by the game. If possible use any other solution available and only choose this as last resort.

What it will do is set same fov in game menus, cutscenes, weapon zooms etc. You will be unable to have it change like its supposed to throughout the game like weapon zoom for example, one workaround is to use autohotkey to open console and input lower fov for those cases, but its not ideal.

Full VR Z3D
You have to use the tool Universal Unreal Engine Unlocker for 120 degress fov.
The cloud profile name is Atomic Heart Grupo Español Vorpx
You can see a tutorial in this vídeo:

There’s a couple profiles on the cloud already you can import.

The profile I started with was from Grounded (another Unreal Engine 4 dx12 game) and it worked right away. Z3D. Remember no G3D for dx12 games.

This game eats ram hard and seems to have problems with stutters or load crashes if you don’t have enough. For me it uses 22gb ram + 10gb vram of my 11gb 2080ti. So if you have less than that, you might struggle to even launch this game.

I use vorpX in openXR mode and run the game in a window 3200×1800 with dlss quality on.

[dellrifter22]

Hogwarts Legacy is Unreal Engine 4 dx12.

Cloning the Grounded profile seems to work great for Z3D, and as far as I have tested, works with all the AA, dlss, FSR types. I’ve put some profile settings on the cloud you can try.

Raising the FOV all the way to +20 in the game seems enough for vorpX immersive screen mode (~90 degrees) which is likely the way most will prefer to play this game.

But if like me you want to try playing on a bigger screen, or in FullVR view – there are a couple of ways to increase the fov to 120 or more:

A) the simplest way: open GameUserSettings.ini found in C:\Users\*UserName*\AppData\Local\Hogwarts Legacy\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor…

about 15 lines down you can edit the fov extension. I’ve found a value of +48 to equal 120 degrees fov. So mine looks like this:

CameraSettings=(FieldOfViewOffset=48.000000,

My only problem with this method is that for some reason the character model is pushed closer and to the side of the camera, so you won’t have as comfortable view of your character in front of you. It is nice for exploring though, and adds more of a first person view feeling to it.

B) More effort, but my preferred method: Use the UUU (Unreal Engine 4 Unlocker) tool to manually set “fov 120” in the unlocked command console. You must inject this dll tool each time you launch the game, and need to renter the fov command after any time you fast travel.

This method will also force cutscenes to be in 120, which is sometimes good, but sometimes reveals parts of the scene developers did not intend you to see. I like that I do not need to switch between EdgePeek for every conversation.

Another good reason to for this method is that you have more control of your characters near/far position to the camera. Now you can adjust the in game fov slider to anywhere between -20 to +20 to your desired character distance while still maintaining the forced 120 fov.

I haven’t played super far into the game to know if any mechanics are broken by forcing higher fov, but I don’t think it will be a problem.

Hopefully the developers can get the performance issues sorted soon, I would like to be able to explore Hogwarts in 4K+ with higher settings :)

Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust (G3D)

Early UNREAL3 game from 2009.

– Optimized for Cinema Modes
– Full VR w. Headtracking available
– Start game with LUGAME.EXE
– Profile available at the VorpX cloud

[joek1973]

Hi,

I am trying to get Vorpx working with The BUS simulator by TML (Fernbus etc). Vorpx hooks into the game but DirectVR scan does not work (it’s not even there). Head tracking seems to work in Vorpx but this doesn’t equal head movement in the game even though TrackIR is enabled.

This game has recently been updated to UE5, and I think it uses DX12.

That is good news. Thanks for the info. I’ll definitely check the game before the next update then.

Thanks for the info! I already have the game working in perfect G3D using the universal unreal engine 4 HelixMod. The only issue I had was that there was no good way to get head tracking. TrackIR support means a simple freepie script and OpenTrack is all I need to basically have this game be a native VR game now.

Will be trying tonight!! Im excited.

By the way, the available Z3D profile ataches with -dx11 in launch settings, but I can’t get past the Unreal Engine logo. I wonder if it was creted for the Scorn Prolouge Demo. What would be the ideal profile to atach to a recent UE4 game with DX11 and a different profile to try with DX12?

Try grounded profile as suggested by Ralf himself. But game stuck on logo doesnt sound like profile issue, try running it windowed or fullscreen, opposite of what you have and see if anything changes.

[luka2099]

so, I don’t make you the video, but I do it for you written the tutorial.
first go to this site https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Home and look for the game you want to create the profile, qi you should see the graphics engine with which the game is developed and the api it uses (dx9 dx11 right 12)
once found go to this site
https://rjkole.com/gamestuff/engines/
here you will find the games divided by graphic engine, select an engine to understand which existing profile you can go to modify.
open vorpx
click on the vorpx icon at the bottom right of your desktop and go to local profile or cloud profile and look for a game that uses the graphics engine you are interested in, click on the name of the game and then click on the option on the right “create new profile based on this one “, Type the name of the game in the box that appears and then click on create.
once created, select the profile and click on add file, and select the executable of the game you are interested in.
Done.
Two considerations. Lately the games are mostly made with unreal engine 4 and unity, but beware, if the game only works with dx12 you have to use the cyberpunk 2077 profile regardless of the graphics engine with which the game is developed.
Some games developed with dx12 can be launched in dx11 by adding the command -dx11 in the properties of the link of the executable and in this case you will have to create a specific profile of the game engine, I hope I have explained myself, I am Italian and this post has been translated with google translator.
