james002ParticipantI asked because when I open config vorpx window it shows only 4 options in dropdown menu. Oculus rift,Oculus rift DK2, Steam VR and Generic VR.There is no sign of HTC VIVE.
Another question:
If I use HTC VIVE, then which option should I select in drop down menu in config vorpx window???Nov 27, 2018 at 6:35pm #177075
steph12Participanthtc vive uses “steam VR” so select this one.

RalfKeymasterSeems like you have an older vorpX version installed, in the latest one the list entry should read “SteamVR (Vive, WMR, Pimax)” to avoid confusion in this regard.
If vorpX does not auto update on your machine fro some reason, you can get an installer here: http://www.vorpx.com/request-new-download/

james002ParticipantCan we play only Steam games through Vorpx on HTC VIVE??/
Nov 30, 2018 at 7:36am #177130
RalfKeymasterNo, but you need SteamVR for your HTC Vive to work.

james002ParticipantI meant, on htc vive I can play those games only which I have bought on steam and not those games that are bought from other services ??? such as origins etc…???
Nov 30, 2018 at 10:52am #177133
RalfKeymasterYou can also play games that you bought on other services like Origin, Uplay, GOG etc.

james002ParticipantFor running games through VORPX on Oculus rift ,we need to start Oculus rift software first then start Vorpx and then start the game.
For running games through Vorpx on HTC Vive what will be the procedure??
Please explain.
As far as I think I need to start Steam,then HTC Vive software then Vorpx then start the game. Am I right??Nov 30, 2018 at 11:46am #177135
RalfKeymasterPretty much the same just that usually you would launch SteamVR before you launch the game. If you happen to forget that, SteamVR starts automatically.

james002Participantsorry,but you mean , I start Steam then Steam VR then Vive software then Vorpx then the game????
Nov 30, 2018 at 1:16pm #177140
RalfKeymasterYou can simply start your game from whatever client it is based on. If SteamVR isn’t running already, it launches automatically.
You just have to make sure that vorpX is running fefore launching your game.
Everything works just like before with your Oculus, the only difference is SteamVR instead of the Oculus software.
