CYBERPUNK 2077 2.13 Odd issue Before&After New Vorpx standalone update

[tjpblue]

What I’m working with:

QUEST 3, i9, 32gRam, 4070 RTX
– COPY of Updated Vorpx CYBERPUNK Standalone mod dated SEPT 2024
– Copy of CYBERPUNK 2077 2.13 + Phantom Liberty

Everyone remembers what happened the dreadful week of the the infamous 2.13 update drop.
Many solutions were sought. Many things wouldn’t work no matter how closely defined my actions were to the instructions concerning CET and the like.

I was ecstatic that Ralf powered by Vorpx, or rather Vorpx powered by Ralf – was quick to update the stand alone mod and link. In my neck of the woods internet is non existent so after installing and and reinstalling with fixes in different combinations and orders it took forever each time I got exhausted – you have no idea how slow of a connection lol
I looked forward to downloading CP2077 what I thought would be the final time and began to install the new updated standalone {all smiles}.

Unfortunately I was stuck in the game waiting room , with the same message of “my version of cyberpunk being newer” ..etc etc. Realizing it could be a false message (see above if it linked properly) I sought to continue : However I noticed that I wasn’t able to use either the keyboard or Quest 3 controllers to continue. I was able to use the grips to use the vorpx configuration menu ( open and close the menu) – that was it. I changed a few settings in vorpx menu – gamepad back to keyboard etc – Mouse was only working in vorpx menu. upon closing the menu AND after the opening intro movie I would get a message saying {!} CONTROLLER DISCONNECTED Please Reconnect controller.No controller buttons or keyboard would work (other image if posted correctly)- I Never post to Forums, as most threads seem a spiral into condescension to the poster -Among other things Im embarrassed I cant figure this out – and reading comments on videos expressing that it worked first try no fuss no muss – Im pulling out what 3 hairs I have left on my head. Ive tried everything – I, in my heart think its got to be something I’ve overlooked, or accidental setting change.
**Headset selection on The –CyberpunkVR config link — oculus headsets , rift , Quest via Oculus link is selected** (I’ve always used questlink for this game with unfailing great results)

If anyone can Help, I would owe you my soul.

Thanks in advance,

You can indeed ignore the version warning. I just forgot to change the version check before uploading the update. Thanks for the heads-up.

Concerning your issue the only two things I can really think of here is that either the game isn’t running in foreground and thus doesn’t have input focus. That could be remedied by clicking into its windows once.

The second, option would be some input releated app running in the background that interferes. Some extra annoying AV programs might e.g. try to protect you from keyloggers for example. So if you happen to use anything else than Windows Defender, get rid of it. Windows Defender will kick in instead. Also maybe some hardware vendor fluff-/bloatware, e.g. from Razer or Logitech might potentially get in the way, although that isn’t very likely.

First off many many thanks,

The running in the foreground issue was something I had considered, though not exactly sure of the cause and effect. Though frustrated , I’m also amused right now because it did this as after I did the CET update and Microsoft framework update as well. I figured I didnt know what I was doing, reinstalling, rereading one word at a time and making sure I didnt misinterpret or miss anything. In essence it was probably good to go, just perpetuating this weird issue – but I am still incredibly grateful for your standalone update as it allows for me to narrow things down…. and you make good software :)

As far as clicking on the window , Im assuming you mean- the game on the actual desktop , to ensure Cp2077 is in the foreground. Will look into this as well.

Im fanatical about expunging bloatware, and do not over AV my system like at all, but one detail you mentioned caught my attention. I had programmed a steering wheel/pedal setup to work with the game while driving. And I am going to look into this today-Though its not being used at the moment (to simplify troubleshooting) Basically a driver and x360ce which at this moment im targeting as potential suspects.

Though my issue is probably one in a million, if I find out a solution I will post on the off chance someone else struck by a unicorn as well.

Thanks again,
TJP
