    @Austint if it helps, and since you specifically mentioned the VorpX Desktop Viewer, I think it’s the best VR viewer among the choices so far. I started using it after the Beta, so I never experienced any issues. The main reason I like it is for the Ambience feature. It can enhance certain scenes I think even more effectively than real world ambient lights on a tv/monitor, cuz rather than being just a flat wall, you can watch a movie theater sized screen while the lighting fills up a frontal hemisphere around you.

    So, for example, if a scene takes place underwater, you’re surrounded by the same blue matching the screen, and it can feel like you’re also underwater.

    Once my Bigscreen Beyond arrives, I plan on comfortably spending a majority of my time watching flat and 3D computer media on the viewer instead of the monitor.

    Here are the settings I usually use, maybe give them a try, see if you like it:
    Background: Ambience
    Ambience Brightness: 2.00 (max)
    Screen Distance: 5.00 (max)
    Screen Scale: 4.00-5.00
    Screen Curvature: 3.00 (max)

    btw, if you shrink the viewer as small as possible while playing media (e.g. youtube ambilight demo videos), you can really see how much the ambient lights are adding.

    cheers, I still remember finding Hiram’s Church at night through the forest, the atmosphere was nicely intense in VR

    hey, I’m the one who uploaded the profile for this game, loved playing it in 3D… if you have the chance, can you tell me if the game is in ‘Geometry’ mode or was it ‘Z-normal’ in the VorpX onscreen settings? Because ‘Geometry’ works and looks really nice, it should be the default.

    did you try looking down and pressing ALT+Space to recenter the screen, there’s also a vorpx menu option to recenter

    were you able to fix it? I’m having a similar issue getting Desktop Viewer to work, just a black thumbnail when I hover over the taskbar application

    actually, I just figured out a profile that works, I uploaded it to the Cloud Profiles if anyone wants to try it
