@ Aaroncls Given my limited capabilities, I was unable to find a better solution for dynamic lights other than to provide the option to disable them. Some environments are less offensive than others, so you can toggle between vorpX Shadow Treatment “turn OFF” and “No S3D” to see which suits the situation best. One trick that can help mitigate the lack of dynamic light is to boost the gamma and saturation values to make the scene appear more vibrantly lit.
@ Reevethelion Due to the very low field of view restrictions of the camera, FullVR mode isn’t really suitable in this game unfortunately. You can try the FullVR mode with image zoom moved out to around 0.40 to get an idea of where it needs to be, but the screen edges will be very noticeable.
In FF14 you need to hold down the right mouse button to rotate the camera. So if you want to control the camera with your head tracking, you’ll need to hold down right mouse button while you look around.
You can download FFXIV Quick launcher and then Dalamud’s Plugin. You will need those two things, then the plugin Cammy to get a wider FOV. I use it and it’s awesome! I play in first person mostly. What’s also great is that if you have any problem with the Cammy plugin like I did you can post on Github the issue on the cammy page and the creator will get back to you quickly.
So, I decided to give this a try today. I have the full game and can confirm it was working across the expansion areas and in dungeon. I did experience an artifact where it was casting shadows on one eye display but not the other in certain situations.
The issue I have is the dxgi.dll file will cause a failed version check if it is in the game directory when you login. I have to move the file out of the folder, login, and then move the file back in. I was using dellrifter22’s file version, so maybe I can resolve that with a different version of the hook helper? Either way, I am excited there is a working method as I was wanting to play this game in vorpx for the whole past year.I posted a link to the hook helper that I have that’s working for me.
@dellrifter22 would you be able to re-upload this again please? Would like to give it a try, was a little late to your upload. Thanks!
I know you will want the file so here it is:

PLEASE let me know how it goes for you and if you need any help! I am soo happy I play this game in VR and I want others to play it too!
Your option REALLY worked for me! I used the hook helper like you said from Destiny 2. It took some time to download but whatever. Once Vorpx asked if I’d like to use a hook helper I said yes. I then copied the version.dll file and placed it in the FFXIV Game Folder. Once I did that I found the Nier Automata Game Profile on Vorpx Cloud and made a look alike profile from it and then added the FFXIV_DX11.exe to the profile so it could hook. I also excluded ffxivlaucher.exe from Vorpx picking it up and trying to hook to it.
THEN IT WORKED! Also I’ve uploaded the version.dll file (the alternate hooking method) to one of my google drives. So if anyone is having a hard time getting it I can send the link.
ALSO, Want to know the solution to typing in chat in VR in FFXIV?!! You need to Purchase OVR Toolkit from Steam and then you will be able to load a virtual keyboard in your space where you play the game. You can then type in chat without taking off your HMD! The keyboard even has a feature where you can Speak-to-Text. SO chatting in FFXIV without typing just your voice!!!!
Can you please explain to me the Reshade 3D solution? I was trying to get the shaders to work in my HMD with Reshade and some other mod that was supposed to make it work for Final Fantasy XIV Online, but when I installed it, it caused vorpx to have hooking issues as I believe they both were hooking to the same exe.
if you can help it would be GREATLY appreciated!!!
