I get horrible performance in DK2 mode (with a R9 290). Please fix

[Mentaur]

amazingly broken for DK2 direct mode. It's locked in 1024x768 and unplayable. Couldn't even get through the menus, so unplayable doesn't quite begin to describe it. I launched on my monitor, set 1920x1080 and went out then back in in direct mode. 1024x768 again. Tried to design my character but was getting 50fps and horrendous lag even at this low resolution. Hopefully there will be a fix soon or I'll be asking for a refund as this was pretty falsely advertised!

Same problem, can't get it out of 1024x768 on Direct Mode. Wish the dev would comment on the issue.

Controls, or more exact lack of them is killing this game for me. Practical nothing works. Not mouse, not keyboard, and only partly a xbox controller.
Even unconnecting all the other devices helps.
Early access. seems to be a bit to early.

[Karpatenhund]

are there still fps issues in OR mode?

[Inditronic]

About the resolution, i started it on the monitor, set it to the highest resolution then starter on DK2 again and it looked much better on the rift. still says that i have 1024 x 768 but looks more like 1920 x 1080.

I just played it in direct mode on my DK2 and its brilliant, works like a charm. It took me ages to realise I could launch from Steam directly and select the correct option for Direct Mode on the Rift.

Before that I was messing about for 30 mins trying to launch it in direct and extended modes like a non-supported application and failing misserably - so guys who are having problems, just launch from STEAM, not from the game directory.

Not long purchased the game and enjoying it on my DK2. Since I am downsampling from 2560x1440 I can select it in the game options but the process is a bit confusing. If I just use the keyboard or joypad I am unable to select the resolution but if I move the mouse cursor to the centre of the screen (between the eyes) it will then highlight and then let me use the cursor keys left or right to adjust the resolution, then pressing "Y" on the joypad to accept. I'm playing this in extended mode.

There are a few known issues with the Direct mode, as mentioned in the guide. Have you tried the troubleshooting steps listed in the guide?
The Direct mode sometimes doesn't have the correct resolution the first time you start it, but it should work after restarting the game. These issues will be fixed as soon as possible.

Hello,

I can't get WoD to work in direct mode. I see the images on my main screen but no display inside the DK2.

I am using the 0.4.1 runtime (2.11 fw).
I am starting WoD through steam with the DK2 direct mode startup

The same setup is working fine with Titans of Space in direct mode.

How is the 3D vision support?

I7 2600K , GTX 680 , 16GB ram, runs like a slideshow on LOW in DK2 no matter what i do .

I just can't get it work on my DK2 with macbook pro. 2D works fine, but everytime I choose to start with DK2, extended screen( oculus) shows fragmented garbages (like scrambled screen) and nothing goes on... music still playing so i guess games still therer, but I can't see anything in my rift lenses...how to get it working? I read and tried your guides with no joy.
