I know this is the ED forums but can i ask what other games people have been able to try with VR?
It was a post i saw about some guy running Skyrim through the OR v1 that gave me a chubbie for VR :D

If I can't post a non ED question here then feel free to push this post through the nearest airlock.

alien isolation is one of the best right now. have heard war thunder is good but couldnt get it to work.

skyrim and others games that dont have native OR support will require vorpx but that costs and is always going to be a bit hacky compared to native support.

I would actually recommend investing in VoprX if you want to play Skyrim. megadonkeyx is correct in saying its a bit hacky but to be honest if someone like myself can do it anyone can. All you need is a bit of motivation which you clearly have :) Plus once you've done it once or twice you get an idea of what settinsg matter and what dont...there are about 6 settings overall that you need to play with and they are generally the same from game to game. At the moment Im completely absorbed by Fallout4 which is a truly brilliant VR experience, and it was this game that ultimately managed to get me to stop playing Skyrim!

But that isnt all. With VorpX all the latest games that come out are usually enabled within a day or two. GTA5 an Fallout4 being the two big titles released recently that Ive enjoyed. Also Dishonoured is class and well worth the price alone imo. But there is a load of older games that have been enabled. Its a gold mine of VR happiness :)

You can go through this guys channel who regularly reviews recently VorpXed games, which will give you an idea of what's ready to play and what's involved getting them to work.

And here's a list of enabled games (not sure how many work for dk1 though! :/ You would need to check first )

If you like flying and and shooting aircraft down(like ED) but in a world war 2 scenario and in multiplayer then warthunder is really fun and great from my experience. However since couple of weeks ago the last patch broke VR unfortunately, but I am sure when CV1 drivers is officially released it will be fixed again. In the meantime I hear a comparable game called DCS is working fine with VR.

Here's a thread here that fixes the scale issues on Alien Isolation. I haven't tried it lately as I lost interest in the game playing in 2D.
