Thanks for the time.

Alright last question.
I am still confused about if selecting a game resolution and selecting a resolution in vorpx are mutually exclusive actions.
“Games run at the resolution you set (or vorpX…”

This sounds like to me that you can have one or the other. Either it uses the game resolution or it uses vorpx’s resolution. Is it one or the other? Or both work in tandem?

And then where does custom resolution come in?

Are these the necessary steps I need to do to more or less maximize my resolution?

1. Set custom resolution higher than my current resolution
2. Increase resolution in the .ini
3. Increase resolution in vorpx menu

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply and answers.

Just need some clarification on the resolution.
How can I tell vorpx is changing the game resolution?
fallout3.ini is set to 2660*2128(if this is vorpx, why 5:4?) but vorpx is saying 2600p(maybe I read this wrong but I am pretty sure it says 2600p. I will check later tonight).
2660 is pretty close to 2600 so I want to say vorpx is directly editing the .ini itself.
The fallout 3 launcher is only giving me the options 1920*1440 as well but I think this is unrelated.

Is vorpx overriding game resolution in this case?

So, adding higher custom resolutions will allow be to bump up the resolution in the .ini. Or, vorpx should give me options higher than 2600?

Lastly, when adding custom resolutions, should I strive for 4:3 or 5:4? I see that your instructions mention 4:3 and widescreen but if in fact vorpx is editing my .ini for me, it is choosing 5:4. Thanks.

After a couple other hours of searching around, I have found answers to some of my questions. Hopefully someone sees this comment before they start typing. However, my other questions still need answering.

1. Yes there is a built in fps counter. Use Alt-F to display it.

4. I see that there are custom resolutions. Is this the way to crank out extra resolution? As I understand it, vorpx’s resolution in directVR overrides internal game resolution right? The resolutions in vorpx is based on display resolution? I am running 2560*1440 right now. DirectVR resolution is set to 2600p(max value I can select). Is this working as intended? Fallout 3’s ini has the resolution set to 2660*2128. This is being overridden right? Basically, I want a higher resolution. How do I do this?

8. From one video I watched, there seems to be a built in mechanism that limits y-axis movement using a mouse or gamepad. However, it isn’t perfect. One solution I came across was to use an old-fashioned ball mouse and disable the vertical sensor. Seems like an extreme way to solve the problem. There must be a way to block all vertical input from a normal mouse right?
