Bioshock VR no way!!!

Actually, you will probably get a faster response if you don't ask so far back in the post history :). I don't often scroll down this far. Best to ask questions in Start Here post for now. Also, please use the reply button to keep things organized. If you still have issues, make sure to post up in Start Here so I see it :)

ben howis

Amazing appreciate the super fast response I'll hopefully give that ago tomorrow

Brandon(Post Maester)

You can find the latest version here https://www.patreon.com/posts/kids-arent-76191161 Run the config file and don't adjust any settings. Play and see how the performance is at base config settings. Make sure your GPU driver is up to date also. If you still have the same issue, put your RealVR64.log file on pastebin and post the link here.

Howdy everyone hope you'll all had an amazing Christmas, I'm trying to play elden ring in vr first I installed the 4.1 mod then it told me it needed an update so I kept updating it, but now I'm at a stand still I'm at the very first level and each time I do anything it goes from over 100fps all the way down to 8fps, I have a 3080 and I tried it on high settings with no luck so I tried each other settings with the same results so I put it up to dumbo has done something wrong, everything plays in the headset fine but as soon as that happens etc it starts losing frames, I've changed the headset so it allows 120hz

Brandon(Post Maester)

Awesome, have fun!

Pandino Biscottino

Using the mod to modify the regulation file and reducing grass, plants, plant animation and rain I made everything more stable and now I can focus only on the game... Top!

Brandon(Post Maester)

You could also try something like msi afterburner to overclock or undervolt your gpu if you don't already. I undervolt my 3080ti to get a pretty constant 1780 clock instead of the 1665 or whatever it would throttle itself down to. But all that matters is that you can sit back and enjoy being immersed in the game :)

Pandino Biscottino

I thank you for the time you are dedicating to me, I also tried VRPERFKIT by renaming the dxgi but it doesn't start. In the end it works fine for me, nice visually and 80/90fps in closed areas and around 60/70 in open areas. the tree-lined areas bring down my framerate between 50/60... I was reading that someone had managed to make it work and it would have been a nice little help...

Brandon(Post Maester)

No go for me either. It had no impact on actual game performance. I also tried the newest version which is the Openvrfsr app which installs it automatically and neither version had any impact when installed. I was under 60fps when I tried them just to make sure. You can try asking on the Flat2VR discord. Are you working with a hardware limitation? Leaving that option entirely, make sure you disable anything you can running in the background. Also you can set the games priority to high in the task manager. Some people have experimented with turning hyperthreading off if you want to do some googling. If you haven't, also try watching some youtube vids on best settings for fps. Wish I could be more help but I didn't put that much time into Elden Ring myself. Also turn off the steam overlay and desktop game theater if you haven't.

Pandino Biscottino

I tried with openvr but it doesn't activate. I put true in debug mode but nothing happens. did you do anything in particular?

Pandino Biscottino

I have both openvr and VRPERFKIT, for the moment I have used the second without success, with openvr on elden ring were you able to activate fsr and radius? thanks

Brandon(Post Maester)

I have used openvrfsr which predated vrperfkit with lukes mods. I just changed the openvr_api.dll in the mod to openvr_api.orig.dll so it did not conflict with the file from openvrfsr. You can probably do the same thing with vrperfkit and the dxgi file. Maybe change the dxgi from the real mod to d3d.dll Not sure if that will work but the first option worked for me. It has been a while ago so if you don't have any success, let me know and I will give it a shot myself tonight or tomorrow morning. Alternatively, what about using Nvidia image scaling? If you have an Nvidia gpu, look it up for directions on how to use it :)

Pandino Biscottino

Hi, I'm playing Elden Ring with good results but I need to get a few more fps without having to reduce resolution or graphics settings (already set to minimum). is there no way to setup a mod similar to VRPERFKIT? Otherwise (even without dlss) something would be enough for me to reduce the radius in which full resolution is achieved by scaling to the edges. Is there anything?

LukeRoss

It's there already! It's the first thing the mod asks you to do when you launch it for the first time :-D If you missed it just delete RealVR.ini before running the game the next time

duke54

I use the steam controller, and no, it doesn't seem to work using both triggers as gamepad input to open the menu. I also, tried binding a button to the pause key but that didn't work either. ( I used the method of 'listening' to the pause key to select it since you can't select it in the menu) @LukeRoss, an option to change the key for the VR menu would be nice.

Nabi Hussaini

Same here! Black bars at the top and bottom and cant view the HUD because it's way too close. Also it seems like it won't boot for me unless it's the default resolution.

Adam

Yeah I've experienced it too. Black bars at the top and bottom of the view, and the HUD moves with you and you can't see it. Seems it's broken at the moment.

pampalini303

The HUD misplaced after today's update. Has anyone else experienced this?

Adam

Thanks, I didn't know about the shake head thing, great tip! Yeah I know it isn't made for first, but funnily enough I'm having a blast with it.

LukeRoss

Hi, welcome to the Patreon! Unfortunately I cannot support the Steam controller because I don't have one and it's been out of production since 2019. The mod uses XInput for the gamepad, so if your Steam controller can be put in a mode where it sends XInput commands to the game, the mod should recognize it automatically. Hopefully some other Patrons who have found a way to do that will see this thread and post their solutions...

Ilaner2000

Hi I am a new guy here, can you let me know how to show the REAL VR Mod menu with my steam controller? I tried pressing both triggers but it does not work. I can only use my keyboard to open mod menu. Also, how to switch between pages in the mod menu? Thank you

Kenneth Campbell

Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work. The controller works fine with all my other games. Just not this one. I've tried re-installing it, changing different settings, etc., and nothing has worked. It's a real head scratcher.

Cercata

In steam, go to the game properties, controller section, and "Disable Steam Input"

Cercata

If it was made for first person with good performance, it wouldn't be a challenge for you :P The next game is being a challenge ?

LukeRoss

Hey Adam, thanks for your words of appreciation and glad that you're enjoying the mod!! When the camera drifts, have you tried recentering your view in VR? (Simply shake your head "no") I still hope to be able to make the camera better in future releases, although this game is really not made for 1st person :-)

Adam

Absolutely LOVING this mod! Already got hours of entertainment from it, thank you so much for this! Question - is it normal for the camera to drift from the original position in first person mode? I find that after some time the camera "moves" from the position I set it, and I have to adjust the position again manually. I've also noticed the camera moving off to the side when doing certain things like sprinting. Is that normal? Any tips on how I can fix this? For some reason I don't get any motion sickness at all in VR, so I'm trying to play FP mode as much as possible, even during boss fights! Would love to see further improvements to FP mode, or hopefully someone develops a first person mod that's similar to the Dark Souls 3 FP mod, that's compatible with this mod. For some reason I'm immune to VR sickness, so playing first person mode.

Kenneth Campbell

Thanks for the info, but, how do you disable the layers?

Cercata

You have the game on Steam ? Steam offen add layers over the controller, be sure to disable those layers for Elden Ring if you are using an Xbox controller.

Kenneth Campbell

I have the mod working, but I'm having trouble with my Xbox controller. When I start play, my guy starts running until he hits a wall. But his legs keep running. If I hold one of the buttons, I can control his direction and camera direction. Any ideas? My controller works fine with other games. Help!

Cercata

I tryed it with VorpX, I found it almost playable, I guess a VR MOD wouln't be difficult.

Lando

You are a god among men

Tryyton

can't wait to play this finally! great job, keep at it!

Sophie

My friend and I would carry the VR torch killing zombies and trying to stay human in the dying light :-):-):-)

Flowzen

so you say keep the (vr) torch burning..my guess is far cry primal then..a lot of torches-and assumingly a lot of fun in vr :)

Darren Paul

The Witcher 3 would be amazing in 1st person VR

Cercata

I was just wondering what would be the performance of spiderman on PC ... > whenever it actually comes out 12/08/2022, in 2 months

MostLikelyInsane

Just planting a seed here, spider-man remastered is coming to pc, you know what you gotta do for all us web heads out there that dreamed of whipping around like spider-man. You know, whenever it actually comes out

Gaz252

Everything apart from GTA 5, so Red Dead Redemption 2, Mafia Trilogy, Horizon Zero Dawn, Cyberpunk 2077 and Elden Ring

AdamZeZ

im new to ur patreon. so this download 4.2.0 works only for elden ring? or does it convert all the games you worked on?

Bob Douglass

Wait, I just read that PS on your post. Ahhhhh that makes me happy

Gaz252

SPIDERMAN Remastered coming to PC in August, if theres 1 game that VR enthusiasts have been crying out for its a spidey game, a REAL VR mod for this would be a huge boost for VR, Please Please pretty please with a thousand cherries on top.

Darren Paul

Cercata

I want all of those :P Also Dying Light 2

Cercata

Yeah, Quantic Dream games could be good in VR ... didn't know they were on PC.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Just going to throw these out there for future consideration. Heavy Rain and Detroit Become Human.

Rod

That is great to hear this, great to see this community growing. Already own all Bioshock games, that is pity , there is nothing better than a free lunch ;-)

Vincent Baziuk

Hey just joined today. Congrats on numbers. Watch some great video coverage of your work, just amazing mods. Can't wait to try them, and shoot some videos.

Carl Byrne

I have been turning off the UI for even greater immersion! My Gameplay is all here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgvsjAceP_450Qp1yL1gpew

Tomo

True! Make a new survey Luke ! Gods of War? Watchdogs Legion? Assassin Valhalla? on the table?

WIG

Luke would love to see another survey of games you want to work on and let the people vote again as there are a lot of new patreons 💪 Might help you retain some more 👍👍

Cercata

3 fucking missions AC7 on PSVR only :(

Cazanu

oh witcher 3 with those forrests and beautifull open world would be so cool to visit,but i think luke said he is waiting for the next gen update,but anyway little people know the update will consist mostly of HD Reworked Project mod,the moder was hired by cdprojectred to bring that mod to the next gen update and proly dlss and ray tracing.

Papa Plastic

The Resident Evil games have already been done in VR. https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/releases

Momentum

Throwing my thoughts in on future conversions, I’d really love to see Resident Evil 7+8 and some of the later Far Cry games like anything 4-6. I think they’d all make great LukeRoss games.

drowhunter

180fps Ace Combat 7!, In the spirit of Top Gun ? I feel like some games would be so natural for the REAL treatment like Everspace 2 GRID or Ace Combat because controllers will never be an issue there. I was always mad that Namco never saw fit to give us VR on PC .

DrVegard

Bump :D

Steve Smith

To be honest I would love to play FS22 in VR using your software as can never get vorpX to work. Currently losing myself in RDR2!

Steve Smith

180fps….Farm Simulator 22 for the win! (did I say that out loud? lol)

LukeRoss

There is a clock! From the Overlay tab, near "Show FPS" you will also find "Show clock" :-D

petrus munteanu

Since the GUI has got some attention now, maybe it could display the system time, too? I'm not sure a clock is even doable and it may seem kind of out of scope, but it would be quite useful for time management. I have to get out of VR a lot in order to check the time.

Andii Doedema

Does anyone know if the VR mod would work alongside the co-op mod?

LukeRoss

Great! Thanks for the report

LukeRoss

Hi Seearbi, your game appears to be starting in 1920x1080 resolution instead of the square one that RealConfig selects. Did you remember to run RealConfig after the update?

LukeRoss

Hey kalas, thank you for the feedback! At times, as you noticed, it can be difficult to sort out what part of the motion is due to the character animation and what is due to the character actually moving around in the world. Torrent complicates things because it adds further animations. This is only a first iteration however, I might be able to come up with something better in the future!

LukeRoss

Thank you Petrus! Assassin's Creed games should look great in VR, I just wish each day had 240 hours so that I would be able to do every game you guys suggest (not saying this in a sarcastic way, I really would like to be able to do more!)

LukeRoss

Yes, the latest release always supports all Patreon games

Tyler Johnson

Does patch v4.2.0 work for Horizon Zero Dawn as well?

u y

I've been playing the ascended mod, which while absurdly difficult, has been a great way to re-experience the game. Works great with the VR mod. https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/1019

Aaron R

Bit of useful information for anyone like me who really wants to play in VR and also wants to freshen things up with the new Enemy + Item Randomizer mod. The only way I was able to get them to work together (since it appears the randomizer only works if launched via the ModEngine 2 launcher) was to do the following: 1. Install the RealVR mod in the standard game directory as the instructions state. Run the RealConfig batch file to get it set up properly. 2. Follow the Randomizer guide instructions. Basically, install Elden Mod Loader files in the base game directory, then download ModEngine 2 and get that into it's own folder. Place all the loose files from the Randomizer mod into the "mods" folder inside the ModEngine 2 folder. Run the randomizer app. 3. Finally, gather all the RealVR files and folders from the base game directory and copy them into the ModEngine 2 "mods" folder. You will then run the game from the Launch ModEngine file. I spent a good while trying to figure out how to go about accomplishing this and figured I'd share so anyone with the same interest doesn't have to stumble through the same mishaps or feel like they have to sacrifice one mod over the other. EDIT: It's entirely possible that their is a much easier way to accomplish this. Just sharing what seemed to work for me since launching from the RealVR installed start_protected_game file didn't seem to load the Randomizer.

Aaron R

New update is phenomenal, Luke! Can't thank you enough for the effort.

Solomon Ginsberg

ER is by far the worst, Luke did an excellent job fixing it. The other games are significantly better. Give them go!

Antonio Mora

"A game with AER at 45 fps is unplayable" Not for me.

petrus munteanu

the Batman series would be great, especially since there's no consistent first person camera mod for them yet; I guess if the developers reused their engine, you would shoot 3 birds with one stone. Same for the the Assassin's Creed series, the modern ones. Would be a blast to climb all those towers in VR

petrus munteanu

so far this change is great. I've been playing first person so far and I have been kind of walking slowly all the time in order not to mess with my head. Game changer for me, thank you!

G. Yam

Now that everyone seems to have a little wish expressed here......I can't stand up either. maybe Max Payne or Batman or Sam Fisher... Open world games are great no question about it. But I bet half your community is stuck in 7 different worlds in 7 different fates. Something to flow through would also be interesting. btw...happy bday for your project ;D

LowRider

DLSS was a bit blurry for me too. Did you try FSR instead? For me this results in a much clearer image..

野盖常

me too

Nicky Butler

My first thought was witcher 3 as well. Totaly fine with that if it is :)

Vincenzo

Please THE WITCHER 3 :):):)

Tomo

New Title in the MAKING?? 180 FPS ?!?! WOHA! WHEN IS THE BIG REVEAL ??

Tiger Man

Single frame rendering is what REAL mod needs, maybe choose a game where is possible ? Integrating FSR/NIS too would help a lot (where is possible) ;) A game at 45fps in single frame rendering looks much better than a game with AER at 90 fps. A game with AER at 45 fps is unplayable

Grocs

Thanks Luke - so far so good with 4.20. Seems to run smoother at High settings too. First person mode much better now.

Seearbi

Radeon user here (RX 6800). Started using your mod since version 4.1.0, which worked the first few times, but now just crashes on launch (including 4.2.0). https://pastebin.com/Af7XEzbd

Rai Darkblade

Is the head bob just with elden ring, or is this an issue/feature with any of your other conversions? Had it a little bit playing HZD

kalas

Thanks for this update Luke! It does feel a lot more comfortable to play, although it can be a bit janky when moving on up / down slopes (camera seems to 'sink in', though flat ground works pretty well). Also noticing the camera seems to end up a bit to the left or right of the character when horse riding or generally if the character is moving faster than usual e.g. sprint or rolling the camera can end up a bit away from the character especially if I'm looking at a different direction than the character is facing. Anyway just some user feedback, in any case thanks for having this option it really does feel smoother :)

Antonio Mora

You need OpenIV to do this right?

Momentum

Sorry to insert RDR2 news into this thread but in my limited testing this person seems to have solved all frametime spike stutters in RDR2 with a modified gameconfig. It's working for me with the latest game version 1436.31 and as far as I can tell has solved the stutters in towns and when slowing down your horse. https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/1502?tab=description

Blackovni Ltd

Issue with Red Dead. I can't launch it, the game crash on boot. I just noticed one error when use RealConfig.bat to generate files. Inside RealVR64.json generated there is a double // on this line "library_path": ".\\RealVR64.dll", I removed one \ the game launch now but no VR

Maximilian Pütz

´Just tried cyberpunkt it is even worse-- i guess thats some graphic settings im missing? CP is super blurry you cant make out faces even.

Cercata

OMG, it's the first time something like this arrives and I have not already beaten the games, I'll play the definitive version this time XD PS: Sooner or Later ? :P

Maximilian Pütz

Hey.. i play horizon zero dawn- sometimes i have really blurry graphis and then they are fine again, i dont know whats happening - and what the best settings are for clarity - can somebody help?

Critical

I am really looking forward to your next game. The promise of a vr mod with good performance keeps me here, since i cannot forgive ERs lousy performance. I dont want to chose between acceptable fps or acceptable graphic fidelity. Esp. in VR.

Critical

+1 Dlss Fix, but you alrerady know, i guess ;-)

Marc Reis

Cp2077 I did play through flat, got me really hooked! I planed on playing it again VR, but in the Pimax8k the DLSS produces ghosting images, each eye a bit to the other side, I guess due to the canted displays, so I need to dig into that or hope that you fix it 😝.( VR DLSS does work in Assetto Corsa Competicione, but i guess it's accounting the device specifics )
