Okay, so Xbox Game pass on PC requires you to launch this application, Xbox Console Companion and the files for these games are under Program Files – Windows Apps.
Anyways, Vorpx, by default, will NOT attach to TheOuterWorlds.exe – Microsoft has some serious security on this stuff and for whatever reason, Vorpx gets denied even if youre signed in as Admin to ‘attach' it to the game.
So heres a trick to get around Microsoft's BS. Go to your desktop, just hit 'Create new text document'. Rename that document to TheOuterWorlds.exe (itll say itll create a corrupt file or whatever- doesnt matter, just make it)
Thanks for our good man Ralf's brilliance – this will make Vorpx look for ANY TheOuterWorlds.exe being launched – even the real one, despite the fact that Microsoft locked it up behind super admin BS.
So, long story short, if you have Xbox Game Pass on PC and you cant get Vorpx to attach to the file itself, fuck it – just make a text document, name it the same as your game .exe, and, Vorpx, being the brilliant program it is – will hook into the ‘real' game when you launch it.
I just put the Conarium profile on The Outer Worlds, havent played it yet, but launched successfully in Vorpx and we can figure out the ‘ins and outs' of getting it to run well later.
but wanted to give this heads up to my Vorpx brothers and sisters. Love yall, let me know if my explanation was bad, ill try to explain it better if i failed to make sense :P
Just a heads-up that you will still encounter some game pass games that vorpX won't be able to hook although theoritically it could. Until recently MS only allowed UWP (Universal Windows Platform) apps and games in the store. Those typically have some extra protection built in, so if a game dev created an UWP .exe for their game pass version, you'll probably be out of luck. Luckily they now seem to allow ‘normal' Windows apps/games too, I'll try to find a general solution at least for those.
There is another problem with game pass games BTW: For many supported games vorpX can automatically change .ini files. Unfortunately for some game pass games the paths of these .ini files differ from Steam/GoG etc. releases, so vorpX can't find them.
Sims 4 not on steam. I will adjust the more important profiles, but expect this to be an issue at least for now.
Keeping things up-to-date for different stores, constant game updates etc. slowly starts to become a full job on its own. Somes things really were better in the past.
Does this issue not apply if you get it through the Epic Games store instead and does anyone know if the EG version hooks/works?
Almost certainly not. The specific issues above are pretty much Windows Store / game pass exclusive. Doesn't mean that the Epic Store can't introduce some other glitch, but that's less likely.
Be aware that either way the game has no profile yet. I have it on my list with potentially good candidates though. So if possible there will be one shortly. As always with sentences like the last one emphasis on *IF POSSIBLE*.
Thanks for testing this. Handbrake video editor. I might jump back in to gamepass again.
Wasn't planning to buy this one full price, so this might get me to try it. Sounds like most people are liking it.
Can't say anything yet to the game's potential memory leak, but you can address the head tracking issue without another program. Maybe that helps.
If a game does not allow mouse and gamepad to be used at the same time, but you want mouse control for vorpX‘s head tracking and still use your gamepad, you can activate vorpX‘s built in gamepad to mouse/keyboard mapper on the input page of the vorpX menu. The option is called „X-Box Gamepad Override'.
BTW: You can also map mouse/keyboard actions to your VR controllers in a similar manner if you prefer those over using your gamepad.
Hello,
