Good to know Ralf, thanks for responding like this. I’ll check it out again tonight to see if I can track down the culprit.
How is anyone running this properly without Denuvo triggering? I’d love to understand how this is even possible.
The retail Steam build (1.04 now) still immediately exits for me. Sad trumpet noises
I can’t get Death Stranding to run successfully at all. :(
I’m running latest and using the official VorpX profile with an Oculus Rift S.The hooking to ds.exe popup appears, but then the game just closes. No error or anything. Tried switching HMD settings between Oculus and SteamVR but something is up. What am I doing wrong?
What recent events are you actually talking about? The riots? COVID-19 lockdown?
What’s actually changing?
I’m getting this exact issue as well.
Black Mesa is running perfect in VR otherwise. But this random flickering every random interval ruins it.
The flicker shows a frame of what looks like frame data of the camera’s view + 90 degrees to the left, basically something the player view would never be able to see under normal conditions. What the hell is it doing XD
1440p set in-game, in vorpX, and the Win10 desktop. No competing processes, steam overlay off, av disabled, Xbox overlay disabled, fresh system install…
Anything special I could try?
Siiigh. No luck with Resident Evil 3. I’ve been trying out all sorts, but unfortunately after successfully hooking and seeing the game window pop up with the VorpX logo at the bottom, an error message triggers:
“Direct3D 11 fatal error: SwapChain failed. [ OK ]”
Pressing OK closes everything.
Is this something you’ve come across before perchance, Ralf? The usual applies; I have no naughty programs open, SteamVR game options have overlay and desktop theate turned off. Windows Security off. Edit: I see vergilldc is/was having the exact same error message in this thread (the post at the top of this page) back on April the 12th, 2020.
So the hooking seems to be all OK, but I’m guessing there’s some kind of hand-off function to the game’s render calls that’s refusing to play along and dance.
FYI – Quantum Break is DirectX 12 only if purchased through the Microsoft Store/Xbox PC store. There’s no option to change this, so no VorpX (right?)
However, the Steam version of Quantum Break is DirectX 11 only… So that one’s your best bet. The difference in performance is ludicrous. Alas I’m stuck with DX12. The cursed Microsoft Store version was never updated.
That’s a good post and clarification. Thanks!
I understand completely.
In terms of Resident Evil 3 specifically, is there anything to watch out for or tinker with to get the profile running as you intended? I’m sure the specifics are in the actual profile’s description, so apologies if I’m asking for extraneous or existing information. I’m not on my VR rig to check the in-app vorpX cloud list until later but beyond curious about the game’s general performance and what visual tradeoffs if any might be for me in Z3D/G3D.
I’d be happy to just play the whole game in Z3D in Immersive Screen or Cinema mode, I think. Especially if it means I can keep the main art assets and effects on a high setting and keep reliable performance. Should be fine, right?
As an aside: If I could, I think I would happily play every game in Z3D. I’m genuinely struggling to play games in pancake at the moment. It’s a pretty damn excellent problem to have! VR is just so goddamn good. Even generic 3D depth is delicious. VR has genuinely changed everything for me!
I’ve not had much luck getting basic Z3D running on any games without profiles yet, e.g. Yakuza Kiwami (I copied the Yakuza 0 profile but no success) – but it’s something I’d like to eventually master.
Cheers!
So is the aforementioned intense performance hit an unavoidable problem due to the nature of current hardware, and thus likely to affect everyone?
Is anyone having consistently solid results?
I’m curious if there are any specific options or quirks to be aware of before diving in later, if any.
Also if there are any special tests or experiments for me to check out and report back on, I’d be obviously be more than happy to. I’m on an i7@4.4Ghz with an Aorus 1080 Ti Xtreme 11gb. I’ve just completely formatted and reinstalled my entire system, so conflicts and hangovers should be at minimum.
Huge thanks @Ralf for including this much desired profile officially in the latest update!
I’d love to join an unofficial (‘inofficial’ is a misspelling, officially ;)) Discord server to chat to some fellow vorpX enthusiasts.
Looking forward to it!
