    If it works why so fast to remove it? I get what you mean, they push forward even if it shakes up what’s been done. That can be a good thing, a great thing. But unless they have something cooked up that really works then removing things feels odd. Unless you have a solution don’t clip the cord just for the sake of clipping. If its going to change in the next 3 updates then they should hold back. If something sort of works and you want to replace it with something that sort of works, that’s not moving forward. That’s just changing out one wrong thing for another. They have a ton of talent in their ranks so they should be able to come up with a solution that works and is easy adaptable for people helping push their product. Think of oculus as the company version of a child star. They take off big, lots of fame-hype.. Then if they don’t watch it it becomes too much too fast. Companies can become bloated and the corporate structure can begin to have negative effects on what they call progress. Anyway I hope they get it down and everybody can be happy and have fun when it comes out.

    I get the feeling that Oculus won’t be top dog for long. Like people have said every time they “update” it seems to break everything prior. Everyone thought hey Facebook has money, it should be able to thrust Oculus forward. Now it seems the buyout didn’t really do much other then make Lucky a rich man. That’s cool and all, but Oculus has used their 15 min up. The whole hey we need developers bit has run out at this point and a lot of buzz has died out. I think Sony if they do it right could become the VR headset front runner. The valve set looks good too but may end up being a little too techy for your average user. All in all Oculus started out with the best intentions. Now it really seems they try to cover the lack of progress by forcefully implementing “features” without proper support from the company. I know its them trying to push forward, but if everystep forward leaves all the people moving with you broken and stranded, then you may run out of people to help push.

    The problem with 99% of laptops is they have underpowered video cards. To have a good VR set up you need around 4 GB video ram(depends on graphics of game being used). That’s on top of the system ram. Windows 10 will probably be good but I would give it a year to work out the kinks. I would go windows 7 because it has better programs for setting up gamepad, wheels, you name it. It has its issues but I think its great after you figure out its quirks.

    If you are actually going to be doing experiments where the subject is going to be using VR then I would say no laptop(too slow), no macs in general (most oculus stuff won’t run, and under powered), and no windows 10 (at least for awhile). Go with a good rig with a nice video card and an SSD HD. Realistic and functioning VR takes some juice so good PC is a must. I would also use windows 7(seems to have the most compatibility). If you want your data to be good then you may need to do a little testing after you get set up. A slow rig will taint any data due to the subjects discomfort and frustration.

    Look man I know your pissed, but something has to be up if you tried that hard and its not working. I assure you that this program is legit. Your specs are basically the same as me except video card and vorpx works great for me. Like today I was thiinking about how bad ass Dying Light is in vr and how I need to nut up and finish it. And how they need to make an Alien Isolation 2, that game is so good on the Rift its insane. Any way it does suck that you can’t get it to work. I’m an American so no Russian counter intelligence black opp scamware here, it just doesn’t like you is all I can figure :(

    How is a program that works fine, updated and supported a scam? Oh wait your a little kid so if everything doesn’t work you throw an autistic internet tantrum just like all the other dumb people on here. Vorpx works great, if your not a moron. Ralf busts his ass and people only bitch and moan. Its not a scam, just because your used to stealing all your software doesn’t mean a guy charging 30 bucks for a program is ‘ripping’ you off. Not to mention its only 30 bucks anyway lol you just spent 300+ on a rift! Stupid people are taking over the world… its like a zombie outbreak but with stupid people… I’m sorry Ralf but its going to only get worse… btw I’ve used vorpx with over 50 games and over 1500 hours… if its a dollar an hour I owe ralf some skrill…

    The biggest reason games have a “zoomed in” effect is games are made to be played on consoles and a really wide FOV is almost never included. PC gamers have been harping on FOV forever. The fact that vorpX even tries to auto edit the inis for you is badass. Almost all other programs would make you go hack around your settings your self. Also as far as settings go, they wil always need adjusting. VR isn’t a one size fits all type thing. The good news is once you figure out what your settings are they transfer from game to game pretty easy.

    So when you turn left nothing happens is what you mean? Or do you mean it strifes left instead of turning? Maybe check game settings to see if turn left and strife left need switching for some reason. Odd issue, hope you get it sorted.

    He doesn’t charge a lot for his work. He has to make it harder to install to keep people from ripping him off left and right. Its beta software for development gear, there will be kinks along the way. It can be a pain to have to email for new code but its more of a pain trying to develope when all people want to do is steal from you and or talk shit. Dumb people who don’t even have a rift or vorpx post here and that’s sad just like them lol It would be nice to have an easier code system but look at it from ralfs side. He works hard, and the whole time he can hear the wolves at the door… so he makes it tougher for them to get in.

    A lot of people must of got the dk2 for their kids after they watched a few youtubers videos and broke down and got one for them. With how crappy most of you act it makes me think a lot of little kids and or dumb people jumped in and purchased development gear as a final product. It is a bit of a pain but its development gear and beta software what in the hell do you expect? Go home little brony, go home….

    Skyrim has always worked for me without having to do anything strange… Just follow the clear and easy to understand vorpx instructions. But if this helps someone then great :) Glad your having fun in vr skyrim!

    I was mad the first time I had to do it to lol but its not a big deal after you get it down. xpadder is good but I like joy 2 key better, is just easier to get things like double buttons working for me. 2 tips are to do all your set up outside the rift and also it may be easier to set up a profile with kb+m how ever you like with what ever keys you like inside joy 2 key. Then change the in game set up with your new custom mapped pad. Sometimes this is easier then going back and forth trying to match the mapping.

    What is Bo2? There are many things that could keep it from running. Go over your dk2 and vorpx instructions. Make sure everything is updated, everything being key… then make sure your dk2 is set up with resolution and what not. Then make sure a virus program isn’t messing with you. Also so video card programs can mess with it.

    Also if your new to messing with mapping your pad just be ready for another round of frustration lol there are lots of things you will figure out and change. After you get set up your done and you can enjoy thousands of hours in vr hunting mud crabs :) just stay calm and you’ll get it.

    Yeah I had an issue with my mouse going crazy too lol the best thing to do for Skyrim is map all buttons to kb+m, then change vorpx to not handle pads. It should just think your using kb+m at that point and you should be good to go.
