SKYRIM – I managed to get Skyrim operating in my DK-2
I made sure to delete the 9x.ill file from my SkyRim folder. ( these are the mod files that conflict with VorpX ) I’m not 100% sure the exact name of the file but there’s loads of threads in this forum that explain that you need to remove any mod files..
I made sure that Dk2 is my primary monitor. & I dragged the task bar over onto my laptop monitor so I can still click icons in the task bar.
In VorPX’s confiuration I set Display/Monitors – to Use “System Settings”
(not show only Rift )I set the Oculus Profile to the profile I created in the Oculus Configuration Utility.
I make sure to when launching SkyRim to set the Display settings correctly.
IN-GAme – to get the screen to show all UI elements I simply middle mouse wheel roll & the game screen edges zoom in & out till I can see all.
probably the only major thing that makes Arma3 hard to play is not actual in game but menu buttons are slightly off to one side… so I have to remove my RIFT & tilt it nearly 90 degrees so I can see the menu buttons… apart from that all is sweet. some polishing up would be nice but its a great expereince
Thanks heaps !!
Hi Ralf.. I worked it out.
in ARMA3 I simply hit the “fn” key + back space
this took me from a single view to duel (V.R view) & I can see the VorpX beta symbol between the two lenses when I’m not wearing the Oculus Rift.
Arma3 runs great in V.R !!! Wow
I realize this is still in Beta .. but hey if any v.R enthusiasts want an awesome game try ARMA3. I am yet to tweak the VorpX settings but so far all is great… I have my MacBook Pro running Oculus Rift in BootCamp mode Win.7 64 bit. I have modded my Rift so now all power to the Rift s via USB cable.. this means my XBox controller & mouse are running from a USB hub.
This works well for me.
Can’t wait to test SkyRim..
note: I had a hard time setting this up as I’ going all this onboard a sailboat !! I ahve agenrerator humming away on the upper deck so I’m limited to how long I can play for.. but I cam up & running… I bet I must be the first person to use an Oculus Rift aboard a yacht… in the middle of a river.. I have to paddle my little dingy 1 km up a river to reach my Oculus Rift …
In BootCamp ( mac windows mode) there’s no way to bring up in game VorpX settings… there’s no DELETE key.
has anyone got a workaround for this ??
ok.. I got it running :) I managed to setup VorpX via Parallels 9 ( a Mac windows emulator ) it loaded VorpX then I got out of Parallels since it’s not much chop for gaming & then re-started in BootCamp mode.
So I have VorpX running on my MacBook awesome :) sorry about all the posts.. I still am not sure how to edit a post ;)
Anyways.. I loaded Arma3 it runs & VorpX recognises it… cool I just have to tweak a few settings etc… ( I need to read over forum posts etc.. related to Arma3 setup.. if anyone has some good tips please speak up :)
ENJOY
p.s – regarding forum posts… is it possible to edit my post rather than have to reply to my own post ? I can’t find any edit post button..
I’m guessing its a WordPress thing
