    I can’t remember exactly what it’s called in the menu, but:

    Go into the vorpX menu (the in-game one) and go through the tabs until you see something about 2D zoom and aspect ratio. Make sure aspect ratio is 1:1 and not letterbox 1 or 2, and then pick a resolution in the game like 1280×1024 or 1920×1440.

    You might also be able to use 2D zoom to get rid of it, but I found that I needed letterbox 1 to look “right” for me, so I had to put up with the bars at the bottom and top.

    If that doesn’t fix it, then I’m not sure what the problem is :(

    bigthriller, I got The Long Dark to work with vorpX by doing the following:

    1. Create a vorpX desktop shortcut
    2. Right-click on the shortcut and select “Properties
    3. In the Shortcut tab, find the “Target” text field
    4. At the end of the Target text field entry, add “-force-d3d9” without the quotes.
    5. Use this shortcut to start The Long Dark and it should hook.

    Bummer! Well at least we now know the issue. I will not plan on playing any OpenGL games for now :) Thanks Ralf! Appreciate all the work you’re doing!

    Yeah, my video card is an XFX R9 390. You’re probably right, that’s a really small niche of people, rift+vorpx+amnesia. Hopefully we can get an answer at some point, I just figured an update broke the functionality or something.

    Nope, never received any support. Although, like you said in your other post about Quake 2, it’s probably related to OpenGL. With how many people looking forward to playing Amnesia with the rift and vorpx, I’m surprised it took this long for someone to respond. But no, I never did get it working. :(
