ok….thats the missing piece. A very confusing set of terms. Plugging the wire in is not enough, you have to go into the Quest headset and “enable” the wire….

That got it working. I still need to experiment with settings and resolutions and controls but at least it is working!

thank you very much!

thanks for being patient with me. I am struggling

reboot PC
USB wire connected
start Oculus app on desktop – it shows connected to headset
start Vorpx, icon shows active. Configured for Oculus
start game (XCOM Enemy Unknown) – main menu screen shows a Vorpx logo overlaid on the bottom.
look in headset, nothing but the oculus store
hit DEL key on keyboard, mouse pointer disappears, still nothing in headset but store
cant do anything with mouse/keyboard or virtual controllers
hit Alt-F4 to exit game

I feel like I am missing something. How does the headset know to receive a data stream from the game?

Thank you for responding. I do have the USB cable connected though I have made little progress.

By starting the Oculus “Virtual Desktop Streamer” app on both the PC and on the Oculus, I can see my desktop. Starting the game brings up the “Vorpx Hook helper” which asks me to install. It says “Hook Helper successfully installed” but the game is in 2D and the delete key does nothing. I have tried the “alternate hooking” with the same result.

Stopping and restarting the game brings up the “Hook Helper” again only this time it fails.
