Could Vorpx run on a stand alone headset?
I know the steam frame isn’t out yet but i’m wondering how compatible vorpx could be with it.
I saw a forum post saying vorpx doesn’t have linux version. So i’m guessing it couldn’t be loaded directly onto a headset. Has there been any attempts of this or would it be too demanding on the system to even consider developingSame here. I lucked out and got into the reservation queue, so i’m waiting for my Frame to be shipped.
Theoretically Frame will deliver close to wired image quality with the foveated streaming. Will report here with my findings, once i get to test it with VorpX.
Can’t wait to play Witcher 3 Remastered this winter and the new DLC in spring! But i have a suspicion that it will require a new VorpX profile…
Mine arrived today. Judging from first tests image quality is great. Even clouds with smooth gradients, quite uniformly colored grass textures in the distance and similar problematic things that tend to cause encoding artifacts on streaming headsets usually, look pretty much perfect.
After about one hour of testing I’d say it’s a great headset for vorpX.
The only caveat for now is that the controllers will need dedicated support. The button mapping doesn’t fully work right currently since the Frame controller’s layout doesn’t match any of the currently supported controller types.
Congratulations, Ralf. That’s amazing news, all around. I was a bit worried after reading many negative reports on Reddit, and there’s a bit of a quality control issue as well (displays sometimes not matched properly in regards to black point).
VorpX support for Frame can take as long as it needs to. I’m not in a rush. For what it’s worth: i’m currently reading through all the books again, after that i’ll start with Witcher 1, and until i reach Witcher 3 it will probably be February 2027… :D
