    Thanks, it showed up after a reinstall.

    Do you send keys again or are they still on hold?

    Found the cause for the stuttering.
    It seems the headtracking scan causes stutter, when the framerate is below 45 or near 90 fps.
    Manual headtracking isn’t affected by this.

    The fps counter is still wrong though.

    Skyrim is heavily cpu dependent / bound.
    Lowering shadow detail, shadow distance and object render distance will offer the most performance increase.
    (It might even make the SE playable)

    GPU depending mods and settings only have a really small or no impact on performance. (On a high end gpu)

    The older enb (injector) versions still work with vorpx.
    The same goes for sweetfx (when used with the enb injector).
    Not all enb settings work though.

    I get around 30-40 fps with enb and skyrim on ultra settings in vorpx.
    I havent tweaked any settings but it should be possible to get ~50 fps outside with tweaked settings (depending on the system and luck).

    Most “essential” graphic mods, like the flora overhaul or texture mods (not the 8k ones) shouldn’t cause a big fps hit.

    For (2d) performance: (i5, 970)

    170-230 fps with skyrim on ultra
    160-190 fps with the SE on low
    90-110 fps with the SE on ultra

    (tested in the starting area, like in the beginning of the video)

    I don’t know why the guy in the video had so low fps, performance varies, but nearly half the fps seems pretty extreme.

    Depends,
    The SE runs far worse than normal skyrim, even on lowest setting and without vorpx.
    Skyrim on Ultra probably runs and looks better than the SE on low.

    The only way to really mod the lighting (except for god rays) is enb, but that costs a lot of fps (40+ fps) depending on the settings.
    A slight enb without things like depth of field or strong ambient occlusion… might run better.
    A strong enb with most settings maxed won’t.

    Skyrim with enb and texture mods will look far better than the SE.
    But it’s not so easy to set up and you’ll have to tweak some settings.

    With a bit luck, the special edition might launch with native vr support.

    It works as good as the normal skyrim does.
    The fps are ~10-20 frames lower, because it has so much more details.
    It runs with 30-90 fps for me.

    (And it’s way better than the normal skyrim)

    – I open the vorpx desktop viewer
    – I pause the watcher
    – I open a side-by-side image in paint
    – I enable the side-by-side option in vorpx

    – The taskbar and paint menu bar are shown side-by-side (stretched over both displays in the rift), but the image itself is uneffected
    – If I enable full screen in paint, one side shows the “old” normal view and the other shows the full side-by-side picture in full screen
    – If I disable the full screen mode again, I get distortions.

    That shouldn’t be a problem, HDMI isn’t even powerful enough for 4k 60hz, so he wouldn’t get 4k in the first place.

    They use the oculus/steamvr driver and are detected as dk2, so they should “work” “out of the box”.

    – If you want to think the optical engineers at oculus don’t know what they’re doing and wasted years, than do so

    – there are serveral comments, explaining why they didn’t use achromatic lenses, cost is the least important of those

    – Most dust particles are harder than tempered glass

    – The achromatic lenses were for the dk2, that is not relevant anymore and the rift doesn’t have chromatic abberation anymore

    – The lenses aren’t complete fresnel lenses

    – The image will be less clear because the lenses are bad, the sweet spot off , the distortion imperfect and the image upscaled

    – I never said it’s like google cardboard, read it correctly

    If you want to think that a chinese company can make a cheap vr headset in a few month and cares about quality or the “final Product”, than (again) do so, buy it.

    The deepoon copied the driver and display, and the headtracking worked.
    Everything else about it was bad.

    The lenses aren’t “cost cuts”, oculus uses aspheric-fresnel hybrid lenses and even the vive lenses aren’t simple. It took years of research to get these right and fresnel was used to minimize chromatic aberration.

    I’m pretty sure no cheap chinese headset has lenses that can compare to the rift/vive lenses

    The 3rd model doesn’t make it better and TFT-LCD 60hz even makes it’s worse, it’s worse than google cardboard.

    If it would be oled or more than 60 hz it would be way more expensive and they would advertise it. It’s definitely not oled or faster than 60 hz.

    You will most likely have less sde (screen door effect) with the 4k headset, but the image will be less clear and you will most likely get motion sick because of the low framerate and lack of low persistence.

    It’s like google cardboard with better resolution, some find it unusable others okay or bearable.

    I don’t think it is worth the 300$, but this is only my opinion.

    No injector running, just an image in paint.
