VorpX is a tool that adapts many non-virtual reality games to play with VR headsets. The next update adds automatic customization for both GTA Vand Red Dead Redemption II, offering an optimized, ready-to-use virtual world with minimal interference.
VorpX supports a long list of games, allowing users to play them using a VR headset, as well as with various adaptations that make them more comfortable in VR. While the app doesn’t add basic VR features like hand tracking, for many games it does add head tracking, stereoscopy, and other settings that allow you to play non-virtual reality games.
VorpX has a huge set of options that allow players to customize games to make them feel like they are in virtual reality, but it can be a complicated process. Fortunately, the software includes built-in FullVR configurations for certain games, which makes them ready to play in virtual reality right out of the box.
The latest version of VorpX, v21.2.1, now includes “connection mods” for GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2, which automatically configure the games for a “great, ready-to-use FullVR experience”.
“The connection mods implement perfect 1:1 head tracking, independent walking / looking / aiming, automatic switching to EdgePeek in commercials and menu screens for increased comfort, as well as unique cameras optimized for virtual reality for both games that eliminate the nauseating head shaking, and, when possible, equally nauseating moments when games briefly take control, for example, when you get into a car or get on a horse,” the developer writes.
VorpX has been in active development since at least 2013 and is regularly updated, adding new features and expanding the list of supported games. It supports all Oculus, SteamVR and WMR headsets.
