Congrats, Ralf, on the new release – very exciting! I’m especially interested in the new virtual monitor, which theoretically should solve some problems i had in the past.
There is nothing that actively prevents hooking into any version of the game. That aside: the profile now comes with a dedicated mod that (among other things) does G3D for the game without the prior shadow glitches
Does this mean that the Witcher 3 Z3D profile from v21 will now work in v25 if i still use the classic version of the game? While i’m happy that the G3D mode now has the fixed shadows (one day i’ll get that RTX 6080 GPU!), the performance of the Z3D profile is much higher and i can get a smooth performance without inter-eye flickering at the same resolution.
There is only a slight hick-up I cannot get past at the moment: the screen flickers when moving the camera around. It works fine if you move it slowly, but rapid camera movement makes things fuzzy/flickering.
Well, there’s your answer. If i understood you correctly, there’s too much flickering at the edges of objects. It’s just not playable like that, even at 120hz (60fps stereo), so i gave up.
What’s real tragic, IMO, is that the super-smooth, really great looking Z3D Witcher 3 profile that we had for classic version is not working anymore. Not with v4.04 (which is expected), and neither with v1.32. I had to downgrade to vorpX v23 to be able to play TW3 in Z3D.
It should get a profile, it’s a very popular title (aside from the controversies, which actually might help promote it). Meanwhile you could try the Inquisition profile – i’m curious if it would work out of the box, it’s the same game engine.
Should work fine.
1. Openxr in vorpx settings
2. VDXR in Virtual desktop streamer.Will this give better performance than using “Oculus” in VorpX and connecting the Quest through the Oculus software?
And I could really use a brief “This is how things should be done and look like” docu, so that I can use VorpX as intended and tell if my system is working properly or not.
I fully agree about the last part. One of the reasons i haven’t updated for awhile is not only that i don’t know what will work and not work anymore (Witcher 3 classic version for example), but because there’s no detailed documentation and tutorials. And when people need to come here and ask the same questions over and over again, it wastes not only the users’ time, but Ralf’s time as well.
I’m aware that one developer can do only so much, but i wanted to mention this as a point that needs improvement. And yes, i know of the in-built tutorial for the gestures (?) and the tips that get displayed while loading. But i’m one of the people who reads/watches the documentation *before* they upgrade. :)
VorpX desktop viewer allows you to do things that aren’t possible with Oculus or Steam Desktop.
For example, you can view SBS (side by side) or OU (over/under) stereoscopic content, or stream games that output SBS stereo3D (native or through extra software). For the latter, the new v24 supposedly has better performance and a virtual flat monitor for avoiding sync problems, although i still have yet to install it and test for myself.
@Laser: Will you upload your profile with the shader fix?
Using Quest 3/Airlink. So in config > general > device selection, should I select Open XR, or ?
I use “Oculus” in device selection. Not sure if OpenXR would work with Link/Airlink.
Oh wow, i appreciate the effort, but this will not work for me. Eyes need to be very close to the lenses to get the full FOV of the G2. The problem is that the opening for the nose has hard edges that can’t be fixed without cutting into the outer shell of the HMD.
Yeah, i have a big nose, but it’s not massive, so i still blame HP for not making it more compatible with a broader range of face shapes. :D
I hope we’ll get a profile one day, but i’m not holding my breath. Since i prefer the lighting of the remake, i’ll probably play it on flatscreen.
But i’m still waiting for the Dead Space 2 remake/remaster first – i usually play game series like these in a row, for peak immersion, and i think that the jump from Dead Space Remake to Dead Space 2 original would be pretty jarring GFX-wise.
G2 worked great with vorpX and The Witcher 3. My main problem was that it was not comfortable for my face shape and i needed to live with some pain during usage. Second issue was that something wasn’t quite right with the stereo overlap. I know that Quest 3 has a small(ish) stereo overlap as well, but somehow on the G2 it felt more noticeable, while on Quest 3 i can forget it quickly.
But i loved the resolution, not even Quest 3 can quite get to this level, IMO.
Something like that. I don’t remember the specifics, but Microsoft announced that they’re removing WMR from Windows. People said that if you don’t update Win10 and don’t upgrade to Win11, you should be able to still use it.
I’m very glad i sold my G2 last year. I knew that it’s EOL when i bought it, but the rumour (?) was that it will be supported by HP and MS until 2026. Oh well…
1) Please make normal PDF manual. Small hints don’t explain anything.
4) Please make Automaticaly insert Hooks or insert Hooks before start game. They need to be inserted always. And why does this happen after Launching and Exiting the game ? I think you can insert them immediately before launch. You can make settings in each profile – Automaticaly insert ( and destroy hooks ). And you will save a lot of time and problems.
For what it’s worth, i agree with both points.
