    IIRC, what I did was tapped the middle mouse button to use edge peek whenever I went into cover mode. But I mostly just didn’t use cover mode. I play stealthy & avoid combat anyway & when I do engage, I just do it from first person. Not the answer you’re looking for, but it works fine for my playstyle.

    I’m not sure about 3rd person, but you can edit the registry to change the fov to 120. I found this text online a while back:

    “Just go to: regedit>current user>software>eidos>Deus Ex: HRDC parent directory. The FOV isn’t in the subfolders for the other settings, you gotta stay at the top one. The values are in hex, so you just edit whatever your current setting is to 78 for 120fov. And don’t navigate to the game settings menu in game; that breaks the spell.”

    That’s for the director’s cut. For the regular version, there is a similarly named folder.

    Thanks for sharing. This does seem to have an impact on clarity and I am not noticing a performance drop.

    I also have this problem. It was on & off during the DK2 days, but so far with CV1, I have yet to be able to save any settings I change within the app.

    Yes, but it works with Z3D, not G3D. As an aside, it was a kick to visit the world in first person: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEkscEFjgcU. There’s some negative mouse acceleration though, so it interferes with head tracking, making it a bit uncomfortable and not really good for a full playthrough.

    Support for some opengl games was introduced back in the 0.9 update: https://www.vorpx.com/vorpx-0-9-available/

    Good news: while doing something entirely different incidentally this could finally be replicated. Fix is working here, hopefully it will also work for you guys. Will be in the next update.

    Hey, that’s great news! Though, I actually might be too scared to play SS2 in VR :(

    What official review? I only know of Immersive Gamers beta videos that he has access to, its still not ready so we have to wait a bit for (I guess) the 1.0 vorpX

    This here is the truth. ImmersiveGamer makes the best vorpx vids around, but he could have done a better job clarifying that the latest version had not yet been released.

    OP, have you been able to resolve this issue? I realized I’d never have time (or the will) to roll back drivers until I found a stable one. Just curious if you’ve found a solution to the black screen problem. I still have it.

    The Witness has unofficial native support. Just put “-vr” in your launch options. Played for 4 hours today and it’s amazing. Don’t get it if you don’t like puzzles. See here for more info: http://www.theriftarcade.com/how-to-play-the-witness-on-the-oculus-rift/

    I reset my graphics driver 3D settings to default in the nVidia control panel and no luck. I don’t know when I’ll have a chance to try, but I’d be curious to know if rolling back the latest driver fixes it. It’s the only thing I can think of that may have changed since I last booted one of these games successfully.

    Funny thing, I just noticed this exact behavior with Thief Gold & Thief 2 last night. All 3 games use the Dark Engine, right? Just tried SS2 and yep, I have the same exact problem, so there’s definitely an issue. I want to say they were all working for me quite recently, but I can’t remember when I last booted them up. Could have been prior to the latest vorpx release, but I really don’t think so. What could have changed? I can’t imagine any of these games were updated. Has SS2 worked for you since the latest vorpx update? Only thing I can think of is gfx drivers. On Nvidia by any chance?

    Weird stuff.
