Other games do hook.

I see the attaching box in the background of Astroneer. It just never manages to properly attach to the game. It get the ‘taking too long’ dialog. Nothing shows up in my headset. The main menu of the game is completely messed up. No options are present. No vorpX logo.

So, I tried making profiles based on Hellblade, and Life is Strange 2. Both of them never attach properly, they just hang. I never see a vorpX logo or anything on my headset. So, is there instructions somewhere or a tutorial on where to go from here? Maybe making a profile from scratch?

Thanks Ralf, you nailed it. It was advanced threat defense in BitDefender. Interesting that it only prevents attaching to some games and not others.

For anyone who searches up this thread, in BitDefender, choose Protection tab from the left, then Turn off Advanced Threat Defense with the slider above it, and also under antivirus click settings, then use the slider to turn off BitDefender Shield.

I haven’t been able to find an option for changing DirectX version, but when I run the game windowed it says DX11 on the application bar…

Thank you for answering and giving some ideas of something to try :)

I tried running KoA:R, as it works for me, waiting until it was attached, and minimizing it, to start The Surge. Still didn’t attack, never saw the pop up. I tried it both with and without “Use Alternative Hooking Method” checked. I have “Run vorpX Control as administrator” checked as well, or did you mean something else by admin checkbox?

If you didn’t mean leaving one game that works running while starting the other, then previously when I was troubleshooting I tried running games I knew worked first to confirm vorpX was working properly before trying The Surge again.
