    Good news. They must have changed that after release. The campaign FOV definitely was fixed when I did the original profile 2017.

    As with all games where vorpX can set the resolution you can select a higher quality preset on the DirectVR page of the ingame menu (provided your PC can handle it).

    Sent again. You should have received the key a few minutes after you requested it normally.

    Maybe hotmail is blocking the mails for some weird reason, the last one with this issue also had a hotmail address. If you don’t get the second mail, please provide an alternative e-mail address, ideally from another mail provider.

    None that I’m aware of. Haven’t checked Flawless Widescreen for quite a while though, so that’s worth a shot.

    As always you can use the vorpX image zoom to compensate for missing FOV at the expense of black bars. IIRC you would have to zoom out pretty far, so personally I would prefer immersive screen mode.

    No harm in trying though, maybe you prefer the zoom method. Make sure to restart the game after adjusting the zoom, vorpX then auto sets the resolution to at least remove/minimize left/right bars.

    This is only necessary for the campgaign. Multiplayer/arcade works fine with perfect FOV.

    Campaign-FOV is a limitation of the game. It only allows to change the FOV in multiplayer.

    I have to look in to the glitches. Just in case: make sure not to disable the settings optimization in the comfig app. Otherwise you will definitely get heavy glitches.

    Listen, I told you four times now that vorpX doesn’t do anything until it is running. Remapping the controller in vorpX has zero impact on your normal controller functionality outside of vorpX, that can’t be so hard to comprehend.

    The controller mapping inside vorpX is a completely different thing than Steam’s controller mapping and works purely inside vorpX. It does not change your Steam controller configuration in any way.

    Again, for the fifth time: vorpX plain and simple cannot do anything until it is running, just like Word or Powerpoint don’t do anything until they are running.

    I can’t say anything else than that. Sorry again.

    Apparently I wasn’t clear enough before: vorpX does not to anything unless it is running. It does not change your Steam settings. It does not affect your controller. It plain simple doesn’t do anything until you start it.

    While your issue may have occured around the time you purchased vorpX, it is not related in any way simply because vorpX can’t do anything while it is not running.

    Sorry for not being of more help.

    The GPU should have no influence on hooking games.

    Try the new alternative hooking method in the config app in case of issues. Caveat: only use this method in case of issues with a specific game. It is not per se better than regular hooking and not meant for general use since it may solve a hooking issue with one game but cause issues with others.

    Apart from that check for anything that might also hook into games. E.g. virus scanner, GPU/CPU utilities, video recording/streaming apps, messengers. Hooking issues in almost all cases are caused by an interfering background grogram.

    BTW: The original Bioshock (in DX9 mode) is better for vorpX than the remaster.

    As said above, apart from potentially changed game settings vorpX doesn’t do anything unless it is running. Just because your controller issue occured around the same time you bought vorpX doesn’t necessarily mean it caused your issue.

    If you want to change VR controller bindings for vorpX, you do that in the vorpX menu on the VR controller page.

    If you have issues with games that vorpX isn’t hooked into, these issues are unrelated to vorpX. To ensure that vorpX doesn’t hook into any game, you can exit from its tray icon right click menu.

    That is a normal side effect of the Z3D creation process. You probably just never noticed it before or maybe raised the 3D-Strength, which makes these artifacts more obvious.

    vorpX does not change any Steam related registry setting at all, nothing controller related and also nothing else.

    It can change settings for some games, which you can revert in the config app (“Restore Game Settings”). If the according list is empty on your PC, no game was started yet where vorpX changed any settings.

    Apart from potentially changed game settings vorpX doesn’t do anything unless it is running, so your issue is almost certainly an unrelated coincidence.

    Might make sense to fully reset your Steam install if you don’t remember what you changed. To do that simply delete everything in your Steam folder except ‘Steam.exe’ and the ‘SteamApps’ folder. The latter contains all your downloaded games, so you definitely don’t want to delete that one. On next launch Steam will redownload all missing program files and create new configutation files.

    Make a backup of all files you remove in case something goes wrong!

    Sent to the Yahoo address. I also added that one as primary address to the license database, so potential future auto responder mails will go there from now on.

    Key sent for the third time to your x…@hotmail.ca address. If it still does not reach you, please provide an alternative e-mail address, ideally from another mail provider.

    Also please double and triple check your spam folder. No returned mail messages here, also Hotmail is usually no problem. So this is rather strange.

    The grip buttons are hard coded currently and cannot be remapped to provide some UX consistency between the different VR controller types. All other buttons are freely mappable though.

    Try to run the game windowed if you are running it fullscreen currently or vice versa. A 4:3 resolutions is mandatory for Half-Life 2, otherwise you will encounter image flickering.

    Make sure not to set a resolution that your monitor cannot display, doing so may cause a black screen.

    Check the “Custom Resolutions” section in the vorpX help to add resolutions to your PC that it cannot display normally. That’s a great way to play less demanding games like HL2 in high resolutions like 1920×1440 or above.
