There is a distortion effect that happens when you turn your head that will cause motion sickness. While you can run F1 2018 in Full VR mode, I don't recommend it. Similarly, the scale of the track, when the camera is at the widest FOV, looks correct as well. The scale of the car looks correct and feels very natural to drive in.

The game runs in VorpX's Geometry 3D mode, so everything is rendered in true, stereoscopic 3D. I'm happy to say that this works remarkably well in F1 2018. This can be a breaking point for many games that aren't designed to run in VR, the cockpit often doesn't look right and it ruins the experience. When I think of playing a racing game in VR, I want to be immersed in the cockpit of the car. The built-in profile works perfectly, so you don't need to make any VorpX adjustments. To play F1 2018 in VR, all you have to do is start VorpX and then launch the game. You can read my overall thoughts on the program here. I know VorpX has a mixed reputation, but if you are interested at all in playing older games in VR, it's an incredible tool. F1 2018 is fully supported by VorpX, so you don't need to do anything to make it work. VorpX is the program that can make a traditional 2D game render in stereoscopic 3D in a VR headset. In this guide, I will show how to get F1 2018 running in VR and talk about what the experience is actually like. To run it at a high frame rate, you will need a very powerful machine, but if you don't mind turning the graphics way down, you can have a very smooth experience.

If you have tried DiRT 4 in VR using VorpX, you have a pretty good idea of how VR works for F1 2018. Especially if you have a wheel and pedal set, there is nothing as immersive as playing a racing game in VR. Given how well VorpX works for some other Codemasters titles, I was not surprised that F1 2018 worked much the same. I was disappointed that F1 2018 didn't have native VR support, especially considering how well it worked in Dirt Rally. How to Run F1 2018 in VR Using VorpX Aug| Filed under: Virtual Reality
