Small profile update on the latest game exe.

– several shaders fixed

[steph12]

i tested it, fullvr direct scan works great, but the UI is grey, not usable, like blank grey, i dont know what’s causing this, maybe it could be fixed with a fallout 4 vorpx profile update ? or maybe by a mod ?

That sounds as if the Witcher version and the mod version do not match. Please double check that you really have the latest Witcher update installed.

Also make sure that you didn’t accidentally disable automatic profile updates in the config app.

If that still doesn’t help, uninstall the game, delete its folder and reinstall to be 100% there really is no other mod installed that might get in the way.

Last but not least (just mentioning it, not suggesting anything) make sure that you don’t accidentally use a non-legit version of the game. Should that have been the case, please make sure to never ask for support here again.

Hi, so i did as instructed. Updated to th 4.04 version .Vorpx 24.1.0 . Windowed setting . No mods installed. I confirmed the dialogue when vorpx wants to install additional content. I started the game in dx12. In game i opened vorpx console and ticked full vr mode. All i got is a z3d image, in vorpx setting changing the fov has no effect.
Next i run the game in dx11. The game will start and shuts down immediately.

Further i noticed an additonal mod (modvpx ) gets installed in my mods folder when DX12 is chosen. . This i causing a script compilation error , that not fixable .

(sidenote,, one time i run in dx11 the loading screen of was actually in g3d but upon staring game play it switched back to z3d… )

Please make sure to

a. update Witcher 3 to the latest version (currently 4.04, NOT 4.02)
b. Install vorpx 24.1.0 (linked on the front page)

Hi i updated to the vorpx version vorpx recommends for W3 next gen latest patch. I am unable to change to G3D , further fov adjustment dont change anything, to me the game looks like z3d. I tried both DX11 and DX12. I have some mods installed ( the same mods i used to play in G3D goty installed) So what are the recommended setup to get next gen to run in G3D ? THX 4 hlp.

I successfully launched the game and played a few minutes. Looks good.
Thanks for the profile update.

Turns out the latest game patch broke the connection mod scripts for DirectVR FOV adjustment and DirectVR 3D (modifies the actual game camera for 3D instead of ‘normal’ G3D/Z3D). Luckily since a while stuff like this can be updated independently from main vorpX.

Next time you launch the game with vorpX active you should receive a message about some missing/updated profile components. This message may appear twice in some cases. Make sure to do click ‘Yes’ when this message comes up.

IMPORTANT: vorpX 24.1.0 and the latest Witcher 3 version are required!

Quick tip: Witcher 3 on steam is one of those rare games that allow you to launch directly from the exe, even without steam running. Or at least my classic install does.

I stored a full backup of Witcher 3 classic before installing the Next Gen update, and renamed to something like witcher311.exe. I assigned this renamed exe to a copy of the old vorpX profile, and now I can run classic and next gen on two separate profiles.

But I just play classic really. I agree, it was perfect already, and looked better. I already had HD texture mods and over the shoulder camera mod.

[Ralf]

All good, you don’t have to convince me. Personally I couldn’t care less, the game was perfect in its original state already. Whatever tweaks they may have made gameplay wise could never outweigh the serious graphics downgrade for me, which quite obviously makes the “next-gen” version worse than the original unless you turn on raytracing. But who am I.

Judging from the vorpx error message you got (“This version of vorpX only works with The Witcher 3 4.0 or higher.”) the current profile already is for the next-gen update (which is 4.0). I just had forgotten about that apparently.

No clue why it’s broken again now, thus I can’t promise anything before I checked, but I will do that.

Thanks for looking at the profile. I really appreciate that.
There is another good IGN video about the Next Gen Update which is more focused on the new features:

Unfortunately the ‘Witcher 3 wird schöner’ (‘Witcher 3 gets prettier’ for non-German speakers) part is only true for RTX raytracing. For non-raytracing the exact opposite is true – probably intentionally to make raytracing stand out more in comparisons.

The first video you linked explitely demonstrates one of the issues, the downgraded shadows, at 5:48. And that’s not the only thing they did to make non-raytracing graphics look worse than before.

That aside: I didn’t recall that I already updated the profile for the next gen patch as the error message you get suggests… Thanks for the heads-up. :) Not sure why it’s broken again then, but I’ll have a look.

Hello, good to hear that we may get a working profile soon. I tried a Steam downgrade to the Classic Version 1.32 as well, but VorpX refuses to start the game. “This Version of VorpX only works with The Witcher 3 4.0 or higher. Please make sure you have the latest The Witcher 3 version.” I don’t see any other official (Classic) profile in my local VorpX database. My VorpX Version is 24.1.0.

There are two interesting Gamestar test videos about the Witcher 3 Next Gen v4.0 update:

Beside the graphic aspect and some new features of the next Gen Version, isn’t it also about bug fixing (v1.32 ==> v4.04)? I have a VR potato anyway (Nvidia RTX 3060 mobile bottleneck), soo I’m fine with a working Classic profile as well.

[Ralf]

I’ll definitely check it out. Just wanted to give you an immediate solution. With a bit of luck ‘only’ a profile database update will be required.

Out of curiosity: what gameplay changes does the next gen patch bring that could potentially outweigh the fairly substantial DX11 gfx downgrade? I played through the entire game relatively shortly after release in 2016 or so and didn’t really miss anything. IIRC the only noteworthy annoyance was the original inventory management, but that has been fixed ages ago.

Hi All

Old user coming back and updated to the new version
24.1.0.

Firstly it looks great and loads a lot quicker, however I’m stuck on the home screen with the game running in a small window to the left vorpx guy in center with the alt_L message and if i look right i see the other message appear.

From here how do i get the game to take up all the screen and these messages disappear?

Tried every button, blinking furiously but still stuck here?

I bet its an easy mistake and im being a muppet But im stumped

Any help greatly recieved
