In case of Far Cry Primal the game has to be restarted once whenever something changes that affects the FOV (typically only once), the FOV adjustment is done with an .ini tweak here. Unfortunately that can’t be applied right away. The game applies the changed .ini value after a restart. Whenever that is necessary vorpX displays a little pop-up message.
The Portal 2 FOV flicker is indeed DirectVR related. In this case the memory scanner does the FOV adjustment in realtime without the need for a restart. Shouldn’t flicker though with a 4:3 res normally… Does that also happen without recording software running?
Not sure about the revesed axes. Do you by any chance play with a reversed mouse y-axis. That would have this effect.
Did you change to a 4:3 res? has to be exactly 4:3 for Portal 2 and other games based on the same engine (e.g. Half-Life 2 or Black Mesa). Viable resolutions would e.g. be 1600×1200, 1920×1440 or 2560×1920.
On a sidenote: Watched your Far Cry video earlier and noticed that you changed the aspect to ‘Letterbox’. While that is highly useful when vorpX can’t handle FOV automatically, it’s not necessary in games where vorpX adjusts the FOV. Whenever a profile supports automatic FOV, vorpX computes an FOV that perfectly fits your headset FOV regardless of settings in the menu.
The only reason to prefer ‘Letterbox’ with automatic FOV handling would be getting a crisper image, which of course can be a good reason too.
Just a guess, but I wouldn’t rule out that in case of Portal 2 that may introduce flicker.
Not PD, but the Cyberpunk mod only works with Cyberpunk. While it uses vorpX’s rendering pipeline to display the image and its input handling for motion controller support, the 3D conversion and a lot of other things are done via a mod script based on the Cyber Engine Tweaks modding framework and the vorpX mod API that had been added a while ago.
@ Burglecutt:
If you don’t need the flexibility of adjusting HUD elements individually, you can also scale the entire HUD to your liking on the ‘Image’ page of the settings menu.
Sounds like it could be a version mismatch between your Cyberpunk version and the mod version. Both should be the latest ones. Just checked the most recent Steam and GOG versions of the game with the latest mod version, so that combination should definitely work.
If you are sure everything is up-to-date and you you happen to have other mods installed, check whether the issue also occurs without other mods.
Also the regular vorpX should be paused or turned off while using the standalone mod.
Worth mentioning that in contrast to some VR mods (including the vorpX Cyberpunk mod) regular vorpX G3D like in Far Cry Primal and most other vorpX G3D games correctly renders both eyes at the same time instead of one eye per frame.
Forcing 3D to flat games by only rendering one eye per frame is *A LOT* easier than doing it right, an order of magnitude (more likely two) is no exaggeration. However, no native VR game would ever do that, since it can be fairly jarring with fast motion. Some of these issues can be tricked away, but a lot of weird issues remain. ‚Normal‘ vorpX G3D does that right.
@ Avery:
You probably have a 1080p monitor? Check the thread linked below, it explains how to add resolutions to your PC that are higher than your monitor can display (at least for nVidia GPUs):
The vorpX logo and the version info are there to let you know that vorpX successfully hooked into a game. Both go away after a minute or so.
Regarding the actual issue (quote from a few posts above yours):
Try a ‘SAFE MODE’ restart of the game and also try to run it windowed. Trying a few times should get you in the game usually.
I also get this here occasionally and am 99% sure that its related to the RockStar overlay fighting with vorpX. When the issue occurs, it alway occurs shortly after the R* start message pops up in the upper right corner of the game window. I have yet to find an entirely reliable solution for this conflict, unfortunately the game refuses to launch when the R* overlay gets removed.
I had originally decided against that since I figured the main hand throwing move would be more intuitive for those who don’t check the tutorial carefully.
Meanwhile the gesture system has multi gestures though that let me easily assign more than one gesture to an action (used e.g. for melee), so that’s actually a good idea. If it doesn’t conflict with some other gesture, I’ll add that for the next build. You’d then be able to use both.
Guys, I understand how frustrating the whole EAC thing is, but I would still appreciate if you could stick to vorpX on the vorpX forums, it’s meant for vorpX support and not for general VR chats. I’m managing this all alone and administrating the forum is enough work already. Sorry and thanks!

That might be possible in one or the other game technically, but currently there is no way to create a stripped down game profile that only hooks into input functions. Also there would be no access to the menu with the rendering pipeline disabled. So not as straight forward as one might think. Maybe something to check on a rainy Sunday, but no promises. I have a fairly huge list of rainy-sunday-nice-to-haves…
The default immersive screen distance (1.0) means about 80cm. If you want a more cinematic feel with a larger screen farther away you can do that with the scale/distance controls under ‘More Screen Settings’. Goes up to about 10m wide 15m away in immersive screen mode.
Yes, motion controller gestures are also coming to other games. Typically with less gestures per game (e.g. shooters with shooting gestures, driving games with driving gestures etc), but there also are two more BIG titles where vorpX has a dedicated mod portion similar to Cyberpunk that gives me the information necesssary to know whether e.g. the player is currently driving a car, holding a gun etc: GTA V and Red Dead Redemption II. So those will get the full treatment with different gestures based on gameplay state in the next vorpX update.
Lunch Lady appears to be Unreal Engine 4 if the internet is to be trusted, so there is a pretty good chance to get actual G3D working when you use another UE4 profile as a base profile. The “User Profiles” section in the help lists a few good candidates. Try more than one if the first one doesn’t do the trick right away. There are several revisions of UE4.
The Evil Within uses a custom engine as far as I’m aware, so nothing useful I can suggest here unfortunately.
Game updates usually break the Cyber Engine Tweaks modding framework that the mod is based on.
If the latest mod version doesn’t already inlude the latest CET, you can install it manually:
