MPC-HC is better quality wise, that comes at price though. In MPC-HC vorpX grabs the image before the player processes it. That has numerous advantages, but also means subtitles aren’t shown in vorpX.
In VLC the image gets grabbed when it is sent to the monitor, after the player processed it, so you get full subtitle support.
So in general MPC-HC is the better choice for vorpX, but if you want subtitles, VLC is the way to go.
Try to run Max Payne 3 windowed (‘Fullscreen’ set to ‘Off’ in its graphis options). That should fix it.
There currently is a bug that affects a handful of DX11 games when run in fullscreen mode. The bug is already fixed in my current dev build, that’s why I didn’t encounter the issue when I checked the game first.
Running the game windowed helps until the next vorpX later this week.
I’d like to take a look at your logfiles and system config. Please try to run the game a few times, create a trouble shoot data archive in the config app and send that to support |at| vorpx com.
Checked both Max Payne 3 and Arkham City, could not reproduce your issue though.
Arkham City ideally should be run with DX9 (DX11 off in the game launcher). I’ll automate that for the next vorpX. Also make sure to disable 3D-Vision if you happen to have that enabled, in the game launcher and in your nVidia control panel.
Also ideally use the Arkham City GOTY edition on Steam. That’s the one that the profile was made with. Shadow/HUD etc. definitions might fail with other editions if the game’s shaders were recompiled for different editions. That might explain the glitches you got.
For Max Payne 3 it’s the other way around. Best to run the game with DX11. vorpX should already do that automatically, but if that fails or you have disabled auto settings, make sure DX11 is set in the game’s graphics options.
Unrelated: For Arkham City you might want to download the ‘Batman: Arkham City [vorpX]’ profile from the cloud. While I was at it I made a few minor changes.
Great. I also implemented a fix for the underlying issue in the meantime. One of those little code changes that are an improvement in general, but have a negative side effect in one or the other unusual case. With the next update Arma 3 will run fullscreen again.
I’ll take a look at Batman Arkham City, haven’t checked the game for some time. It used to work very well, also no other reports of such an issue so far. Still posssible of course that something has changed, I’ll check that.
On your I would suggest to try a factory reset (config app > trouble shooting) first to ensure all profiles have their default settings. Maybe you changed some settings that can cause glitches.
In regard to hooking/start issues please try the usual things suggested in the trouble shooting guide pinned on top of this sub-forum, i.e. primarily checking for potential hooking conflicts.
Running vorpX as admin is only necessary for games that require admin rights. Better to not do that unless required.
There is no difference between official profiles and user profiles in regard to the hooking process. Almost certainly a coincidence that this happens just now for you.
Try to disable the Origin overlay in the Origin options. Shouldn’t be necessary, but may help. Also enabling alternative hooking in the config app may be worth a shot. caveat: switch back to default hooking later even if that helps, some games require default hooking.
The nVidia installer normally shows a checkbox labeled “Perform clean installation” before the actual install starts. If you leave that unchecked, your existing driver settings, including custom resolutions, should remain. At least when you do a “Custom” install, not sure whether the installer shows this checkbox when you do the “Express” install
Try the updated “Batman: Arkham Knight [vorpX]” profile from the cloud. It allows you turn shadows off on the ‘Image’ page of the vorpX menu. Also has a scalable 3D HUD now. I might have missed some related shaders, but worked for me in the first hour or so of the game. Let me know if that changes later.
Additionally I reduced 3D-Strength in EdgePeek mode for comfortable cutscene viewing even if you raise the general 3D-Strength.
BTW: I understand that exaggerated stereo 3D looks cool, but if you keep things real, which is what official profiles do at default, typical non-stereo glitches are often passable. Cranking the stereo 3D-Strength up beyond realistic levels is not always the best idea.
Maybe your vorpX install got corrupted somehow. Try a full factory reset in the config app (trouble shooting page).
If that doesn’t help, try to uninstall/reinstall vorpX. Keep the regitration information when the uninstaller asks about it!
If you need a new installer, you can get one here:
http://www.vorpx.com/request-new-download/Also try to remember whether you maybe installed something or made any changes to your system. An issue like this typically doesn’t appear suddenly out of the blue, it’s more likely that something changed on your system that triggered the issue.
If you happen to have the Windows system restore function enabled, try a restore point from before the issue started to occur. Unfortunately it’s off per default on Windows 10, so unless you enabled it that’s not an option.
That’s all I can recommend, I’m afraid.
May also be an injection conflict with some other program on your PC that also hooks into other apps. Maybe you just got lucky before. The pinned troubleshooting guide on top of this sub-forum lists a few potential candidates.
BTW: Unrelated, but personally I would consider MPC-HC the better choice for watching movies with vorpX, you might want to check that one out.
That’s an issue caused by the mod then. I’ll check it, but don’t expect anything, unlikely that I can do something about it.
In general: first thing to try in case of issues when playing a game with mods should always be to try without.
