for eg. this is what i see directly in the rift but not converged, in other words its mirroring in both extended and cloned mode exactly what i see on the desktop

No one praising this one yet?? What the hell?? Looks fantastic!! The scale and 3D could not be better. One fix had to be made …shadows flickering. The fix… in the skyrimprefs.ini change bDeferredShadows=1 to bDeferredShadows=0 …for some reason it has fixed the shadow problem either way if its zero make it 1 …if its 1 make it zero. People complaining about Vorpx costing 40 dollars are insane. Skyrim alone is worth the forty dollars. Excellent job Ralf! You can just hang by the river looking up at the immense mountains in awe that you are in Skyrim!!!

I am using some focal offset in Skyrim on the DK2 and it looks fantastic. However when I tilt my head it seems like the offset is not being applied correctly – I think it should tilt with your eyes, not remain level with the world. As a result I get double vision whenever I tilt my head.

Other than this issue I am really enjoying the new VorpX, you have done an amazing job.

Never tried an external gamepad tool tbh, you should be able to use xpadder if you change the “Handle gamepads internally” option in the vorpX menu ([DEL]). You can also change key bindings for the internal gamepad emulation there, that will most likely be enough, except for complex multi-key macros.

Skyrim runs below 60fps on most machines outside, hence the judder. Reducing graphics settings will help, also vorpX’s “G3D Latency Enhancement” (input page of the ingame menu). If you can live without Geometry 3D, Z-Buffer 3D doubles your framerate, but has a less convincing 3D-effect and no positional tracking.

First of all, great work so far Ralf. For a beta injector I’m pretty impressed with the work you’ve done. I searched for answers to my questions but didn’t find what I was looking for in the forum.

I have Skyrim running fine with the DK2, positional tracking and all. However I’m vexed by the controls. I prefer to use an Xbox gamepad with games like Skyrim so that I can sit back and relax while using the rift. I’m aware that you suggest turning off gamepad support via the game menu in favor of the built in controller emulation. I am, however, finding that the controls are quite finicky using the gamepad with the emulation.

I tried using Xpadder to create my own controller map but it conflicts with the built in emulation and leads to all kinds of problems.

My questions are as follows:

1) Is there a control map that shows the Skyrim gamepad controls used by the vorpX emulator, and can they be remapped?

2) Is there a way to disable the built in emulation so that I can use Xpadder instead without the conflict? I’d like to have access to the vorpX-specific macros like [SHIFT][SPACE] to recenter, middle mouse key to edge peek (seems to be initiated with Start with vorpX emulator…?) and shift+middle mouse key etc.

Controls and judder are my two biggest roadblocks to enjoying Skyrim in DK2 right now. That actually brings up another questions, is there a way to see the FPS in game without a third party app like FRAPS? I know you don’t recommend FRAPS, but I think performance is to blame for my stuttering issues. I have a 3770K and two 780Ti’s (SLI disabled per your suggestion) but I still need to play with the graphics options to get smoother experience. I think the graphics are still set to Ultra and I do have some texture mods, I’ll have to play around with them to get an acceptable framerate.

But yeah, TL:DR – gamepad controls, is there a key map and is it rebindable and barring that, can I disable the emulation to use Xpadder, and FPS counter.

Thanks for your time, keep up the good work!

ok, I think I have fallout 3 and skyrim working. I was using an emb with skyrim and I think that was causing vorpx to not “hook in” and recognize. As for new vegas I changed the resolutions, but still I’m getting the render error. Here is a new question. I’m using an xbox 360 controller and everytime I play skyrim or fallout 3 I don’t have any head tracking and need to use the right analog stick and suggestions on this issue?

[Ralf]

Positional tracking is Skyrim only currrently. More games to follow.

Regarding FOV please refer the the “How to get the most out of vorpX guide” in the documentation. There are several strategies how to deal with this.

For Bioshock vorpX offers a pretty easy one by using the ‘Game settings optimizer’ in the config app. If the optimized settings are not applied for some reason in your case, you can also use the built in “3D FOV Enhancement” or edit the according .ini manually. You can usually find short tutorials for many games by googling for “FOV + gamename”.

I have the feeling that positional tracking is behaving strangely. When I move my head left or right, the camera also moves forward. And when I move my head forward while I’m looking down, the camera also moves down. I also feel that the in-game positional tracking does not move as much as I do in real life, is there any way to adjust it?

Thanks Ralf! I got it to work by making sure the resolution of Skyrim is 1920×1080. And i set my other monitor to extend desktop instead of clone with my rift as primary monitor. makes it a little tricky to start a game but hey it works.

Skyrim looks really great with the rift so kudos to vorpx for making it work.
One problem I have is the foliage in the game seems to be flashing a little bit (like a neon lightbulb, but only a small value change) which gets nauseating after a while. It could be my quality settings are too high though. have to experiment.

Please send a screenshot of the processes tab of your task manager showing all running processes to support |at| vorpx com . Maybe we can spot something you overlooked. Skyrim is definitely not known to cause such issues regularly, this almost certainly is a local issue.

Along with it please also send your vorpx.log after trying to launch the game a few times. The logfile can be found in your temp folder. Usually C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\temp

This will be looked into tomorrow. It’s very late here already, also Sunday.

Did you try other games BTW?

So, I’ve run through the troubleshooting completely and checked my Skyrim folder, but still no love.

I did uninstall the Nvidia 3D driver and hoped that helped, but nothing changed.

I’ve completely wiped and reinstalled Skyrim fresh. Nothing. Skyrim starts on my main screen and there’s no VorpX menu.

[Ralf]

This indeed sounds like something preventing vorpX from hooking into the game. Please check whether there is a d3d9.dll present in your Skyrim folder. Might be there from a so called ENB mod for example. Remove it if you find one.

There are more things that can block vorpX. If you haven’t done so already please go through the trouble shooting guide in the documentation.

[magnus357]

Ok.

I’m running windows 7 x64 with a Nvidia GTX 560 Ti.

I can’t get VorpX to render to the DK2. I’ve tried all modes of DK2 extended (both as main and not as main), I’ve tried direct, but still no luck.

Everything just goes to my main monitor.

The only time I got anything on the DK2 was when I ran it as a solo monitor, but it was not rendering in 3D. It was a single image and not centered for the DK2 and there was no tracking.

Best I can tell, VorpX does not tell Skyrim is running. I’ve tried making a custom shortcut through the control panel object straight to the TESV.exe, but still no luck.

Any ideas?

Yeah managed to tweak it in skyrim and worked really good after playing with the settings a bit. Realised that I wasn’t pressing OK SAVE so nothing was changing. Looks good now. Though in some games its impossible to keep the [del] menu open and the mouse cursor does not work so cant navigates vorpxs in game menus. Are there any fixes for that?

[Shpinxis]

I have tried following the instructions in the VorpX guide and setting FOV to 120 (like in Skyrim) and it still seems very zoomed in. Maybe this is how the game looks? I also tried Dear Esther in which VorpX tells you to set the FOV slider all the way and so I did, but the game is still really zoomed in.
