I might keep the Fox startup, it's pretty awesome.
Or not, idk.
Or not, idk.
Yeah, why?
Should I have tried windowed?
To remove intro movies (20th century fox, Creative Assembly, AMD):
Go to \DATA\UI\MOVIES in the installation folder.
2. Delete or rename AMD_IDENT.USM, FOX_IDENT.USM, and CA_IDENT.USM.

Thanks, you should put all the useful stuff in the OP.
I recently built a pc. will these specs run above 60fps?

Setting the FOV above 55 causes Amanda's body to disappear in first person view. Normal?
Is this game 30 fps on One/PS4?

Yes, with drops in cutscenes aparently.
Oh one more thing max FOV = 75? Why?
It's super fucking buggy, but...

sup dudes.
Right now, due to limitations of VorpX, no positional tracking (only skyrim has positional tracking right now, but it's supposed to be coming next update for all games), just orientation tracking. But DAMN this is awesome.
Don't shit your pants.
oh man, where do i watch that? haha.

Yep. But I like it. I hate seeing my own body in first person view. It always looks super weird.
BTW guys, how do you enable SMAA T2X? I only have T1X.
-open VorpX, select "use no profile" so that you can manually set your IPD (using the oculus profile screws up the convergence on my box)
-Open the game. the first time I run the game, no matter what, I get a black full-screen display on my monitor, but I can hear the videos playing in the background. Wait for these videos to finish and dump you to the main menu
-hit alt-enter to go into windowed mode (no matter what I set my in-game settings to, I seem to have to do this). The screen should now be visible, albeit in 2D
-press delete to bring up the vorpX menu. The vorpX logo should be corrupted and taking up most of the screen, making seeing the options difficult, but find the "ok and save" button and click it, it's the second from the right at the bottom of the menu
-while still in window mode, quit alien isolation
-restart alien isolation. it should now begin in windowed mode, with two viewports, on your monitor (even if your rift is the primay display)
-press win+shift+right (or left) to move display to your rift
Incidentally, even with the injection driver and rendering two stereoscopic viewports, this game runs like a champ on my rig. No judder in VR, seems to be hitting a high refresh rate. Very pleased with the performance.
Would you say vorpx is worth it for this game?
Yep. But I like it. I hate seeing my own body in first person view. It always looks super weird.

SMAA T2X only works with single GPU for me. Assuming it is not SLI compatible option. Suck as it cleans up the jaggies better than T1X...
Eh
VorpX is only ever "worth it" if you extremely temper your expectations. I honestly am hesitant to ever recommend VorpX, ever, because it's not how VR is done right. But in this instance it's too neat for me to pass up. I'm glad I already had it. I probably wouldn't have bought it for this, but since I already had it laying around, it's getting more use right now than it has in the last year.
That said it's only like $40 and it's neat to play with.
The ship really is amazing in VR, though. It comes across as kinda small on a normal monitor (you can tell early on because your head is so close to the ceiling) but in VR it feels claustrophobic. It's really tight, just like you'd expect a space ship to be.
I'm holding off on a proper playthrough right now because I want to live stream this. But I can imagine running from the alien in these tight spaces will be horrifying.
I'm so tempted to buy VorpX just for this and Bioshock Infinite. I know it's not that expensive but I hate the hasty monetization idea on immature technology such as OR. Guess I'll end up waiting for an official OR patch. Finger crossed.
SOOOOO on the subject of Oculus Rift support, modders are already diving into the game and finding bits and pieces of the original Oculus Rift support still in there.
If an official patch doesn't come, perhaps a mod will soon enough.
Anyone know what the sli compatibility bits are? I've been looking around with no luck so far.
I can't run the latest drivers at the moment due to the fact I'm running sli boards in
a crossfire only system, I have to run a hack to get sli, to run, this hack won't support the latest drivers at the moment, could you post the current profile for alien isolation?
just the sli compatability bits will do for now.
Thanks!
Thanks for the info! I put that bit setting in, added ai.exe, set 2 gpu's, and set afr2 mode,
both 560's being fully utilized, and I'm holding a solid 60 fps (vsync on), with 1 560 I
was getting between 45 - 50 fps, this is with all settings maxed at 1920 x 1080.
nvidia inspector is a nice utility to have for stuff like this.
Posted this in the OT, but here might be better; I don't mean to spam.
Having a nasty issue on PC. Ran fine the first time, got a surprisingly poor framerate in the first room, alt tabbed out to find if it was a serious problem (I saw that others had experienced this and it's apparently isolated?), it crashed, now it crashes on boot with a black screen with the reported fault module being gameoverlayrenderer.dll, which is related to the Steam overlay. I tried disabling the overlay, same result. Need help.
EDIT: Works if I rename gameoverlayrenderer.dll. It's an annoyance, so I'd still appreciate advice on how to get the game working with the overlay, but it's not as urgent.
