You may have to raise the ‘Headtracking Sensitivity’ value in the menu. If it still doesn’t work afterwards, on your machine something is wrong that isn’t covered by the fix for the issue. Potentially some weird Windows access rights issue that might e.g. be caused by running Windows with separate admin/day-to-day accounts.
This is a false positive.
vorpX “injects” other programs which some AV programs may classify as malicious behaviour without really being sure about it, and – most annoyingly – without telling their users that they are just taking a guess.
You should report this as a false positive to your AV vendor so they can fix their mistake.
In the meantime please exclude the vorpX program folder from scanning.
Alternatively you might want to consider switching to Windows Defender, which provides excellent protection without being as invasive as some other AV scanners. Windows Defender gets enabled automatically on Windows 10/11 when you uninstall redundant third party AV programs.
I usually make sure Microsoft whitelists new vorpX releases before uploading them, so with Windows Defender you should rarely – if ever – encounter annoying issues like this.
If you changed your PC in the maeantime, you will need a new key. Please send your new request code to the registration mail address.
You need the legacy (DX9) version for Geometry 3D support. Can be installed separetly from the EA launcher. Click the ‘Manage’ button, then ‘Manage add-ons’. Download ‘The Sims 4 Legacy Edition’.
To a degree your mileage may certainly vary, and as said above, VD may work well in other cases, not so when used with vorpX however unfortunately. Both simply don’t play well together. That’s all.
With vorpX VD introduces wild lag (OpenXR), heavy performance issues in some games, as in FPS almost half of what it should be (OpenXR and SteamVR), upside down controllers since vorpX updated to OpenXR 1.1 (OpenXR) and other minor issues.
I didn’t say VD doesn’t work well in general, I wouldn’t even know that. I can say with certainty though that in case of vorpX Quest Link objectively is the (far) better option. At least half the issues you reported here stem from using VD + vorpX, it takes you only a couple of mouse clicks to fix them right away.
@ gawky: Ideally please no “me too” posts below replies that contain solutions or fix announcements. Thanks! Makes life easier for everyone here and in every other forum on the planet. :)
Just a heads-up that I could pinpoint two potential issues with the game, using the demo. One can cause a crash directly at start on CPUs with >12 cores and another one can cause a crash when loading a map.
Both issues are addressed, so the game should work fine under all circumstances after the next maintenance update. No date set yet, but shouldn’t take too long.
There are three settings that affect actual gamepad input:
– The X-Box gamepad override (which maps gamepads to mouse/kb)
– Motion controller support if set to mouse/kb emulation.
– Head tracking sensitivity for default mouse emulation tracking.All three can make vorpX simulate mouse input, which as an unavoidable side effect causes gamepad issues in games that can’t gracefully handle simultaneous mouse and gamepad input, which are quite a few. The first option actually exists to deal with such games by translating gamepad to mouse input, which allows gamepad usage in affected games together with mouse emulation head tracking.
Disabling all three makes sure gamepad input stays unaltered and no simulated mouse input can interfere with games that can’t handle both at the same time.
Disabling all three also completely breaks everything motion controller related and head tracking related except DirectVR head tracking if available for a game.
Motion controllers set to gamepad emulation should be safe unless the X-Box gamepad override is enabled.
That’s all.
On some PCs the vorpX service can’t handle the virtual monitor due to fairly convoluted Windows access rights issues. I implemented a fallback method for affected configurations in the meantime. Will come with the next maintenance update. Until then manually enabling like you did is the right workaround.
Not a bug. An incompatible unsupported game. I changed the misleading topic title.
That aside: I’ll take look at it. No promises at all though regarding unsupported games.
BTW: who is “we”? :)
Can’t replicate. Do not diable vorpX’s automatic setting feature and reset the game’s graphics settings to default. Sometimes 3D modes working depend on one or the other game settings being set to a certain value.
Just in case you didn’t see my reply in the release thread:
Your issues sound as if you are using Virtual Desktop together with vorpX. Don’t. Really, just don’t!
Exit the VD Streamer on your PC. Set your headset type to ‘Meta Quest Link’ in the vorpX config app and enjoy vorpX like intended. Will feel like upgrading a 10 year old PC to something recent. Prefer wired Link for the best exprience. VD might work well in other cases, but with vorpX it produces performance issues, micro stutter and lag/latency even on fast WiFi that are beyond bad.

I can’t replicate this here, using the Steam version.
1. Reset the profile to default in the config app.
2. Make sure you didn’t accidentally disable automatic settings in the config app.
3. Reset the game options to default.(Only!) if that does not help:
Create a trouble shoot data archive in the config app and send it to support at vorpx dot com.
