Outlast not launching

[Manc_UK_VR]

Hi All, I just bought VorpX with the sole purpose of playing outlast in VR (which I hear works quite well) – however the game failes to launch whenever the watcher is running, nor does it work with the watcher disabled and a shortcut from the shortcut generator on the taskbar.

HTC VIVE

Comp Spec:-
Windows 10 Pro N (WinVer 1151 – OS Build 10586.420)
Asus Z170 Deluxe
Asus STRIX 980ti 6GB (Nvidia Driver 365.19)
32GB DDR4 (corsair)
500GB (SSD)
2TB (Seagate mech)

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong here, but I’ve tried every executable in the outlast folder (win 32 and 64 binaries) and nothing seems to work, the HMD doesn’t even go dark like it’s trying to load something.

If I use the watcher and go straight to the OLGame.exe (Win32 folder) I get the error message “Windows cannot access the specified device, You may not have appropreate permissions to access the device”.

Please note: I have tried starting VorpX as administrator also (Start > All Apps > Start vorpX > as admin), the results are the same as above – permissions error.

If I pause the watcher the game launches as normal.

Can someone please let me know what I’m doing wrong, I’d dying to play this in VR!!

Thanks in advance for any help!
