Got them today. Red-Cyaan works best. Have tried SFIV demo, man is that cool !! Nice to play in 3D sometime for only a few euros Now if i could only get my hands on some nice glasses instead of these carton ones.
Dude, not everyone has the cash to spare for a rig that runs games in 1920x1080. I've got the 2233RZ and it's awesome if you want the extra edge in online gaming, but I got to give it to you, if you only play SP's or couldn't be bothered about how "good" you play, it's not worth it's price. It comes pretty close to CRT, without the headaches that is
I'm not too familiar with the methods of rendering the scene twice from two slightly different view points, but you are saying is that the frame counter counts a frame as completing the rendering for both eye's view port (and not counting each eye's rendering as independent frames), I guess. Thank you. Well then if there aren't any major optimizations for rendering two frames from slightly different viewpoints, then the approximate halving of FPS is quite expected isn't it? (Except in cases where the game is being CPU limited because the rendering of the second view port doesn't need to wait on the cpu). Rendering two times for one frame! Much more reasonable than my previous assumption. There can't be THAT much overhead for shifting the view port slightly to the left and right constantly. I'm so silly. That still leaves me one question, I wonder how the Nvidia driver's work. Do they update the frame buffer for each eye's view synchronously or one then the other? I'm guessing doing one then the other (in between rendering the frames for each eye) could cause some weired disconnect between the eyes, so the active frame buffers are probably swapped for each eye at the same time.
I still haven't got the glasses but I tried IZ3D driver: http://www.iz3d.com/t-dcdriver.aspx (at installation I selected directx anaglyph) and it actually works, even got better fps in l4d than with nvidia's stereoscopic. there are some differences, for example with nvidia the whole picture looks a bit more red. can you please compare the 3d visuals between the two ?
Very impressive!! I couldn't buy this though.. lol. Not that I wouldn't want to... its just that I'm afraid that I would be enjoying gaming so much, I would never leave my house again
So I have 4 sets of the glass's from my Journey to the center of the earth Blue Ray movie. How do I go about testing this with L4D? Do I need a driver or witht he last WQHL from Nvidia work? woops, the ones with my movie are Red and Green and will not work I guess.
Hi, Are you looking for something like this? http://www.fotografie-in-3d.nl/?page=catalog&view=subcategory&subcat_id=3 I ordered one yesterday, im very curious how 3D will look ! Years ago i had shutter glasses with a Asus Geforce 4, @ that time it worked, but it was really crap! Cheers, Gerard
I've got my red/cyan plastic glasses. 3D effect is very nice, but colors are somewhat screwed (obviously). it sometimes worth it, sometimes not. I did some comparisons with iZ3D anaglyph driver: iZ3D: - fps is smoother - can work in a window - works with some games that nvidia's doesn't - ingame wizard/settings more comfortable NVIDIA 3D Stereo: - many games are rated by nvidia - tips for best individual game settings - laser sight more accurate and customizable. - optimizes game colors before applying 3d effect - better for preventing blinking colors, ghosting and such. (iz3d optimized colors option suck, but nvidia forces optimize colors - can't disable)
Hey thanx !! Those are great glasses, just around my corner I had my first home 3d experience with the Asus geforce 3 deluxe, played them till dead with quake 3 arena :biggun: A shame those glasses weren't supported with the newer cards. Now all i need is a 30" 120hz lcd and i jump on the 3dvision train again. For now, those red/cyaan glasses do their job.
NVidia glasses have strong ghosting effect on LCD and CRT monitors. It's strange, that there is no about this problem in the article.
Extended use, lol. I can't even wear them for 30 seconds without getting a headache and slightly lightheaded. It's almost equally as bad as not wearing the glasses and just trying to watch the screen without them, but not quite. If I got to suffer the side-effects either way I might as well get the proper effect. And the rest of what you say is true too. Color perception isn't very good at all.
Wow nice piece of kit! Looks very cool but too expensive for me. Hilbert not sure about your prices? I did a quick google and in the Uk you can pick up just the glasses for between £92 (€105) and £110 (€125) Or with the monitor for £310 (€350) or £350 (€395)
Well now that it's bumped, I had a chance to test it on a Samsung stand in Left For Dead on ISeries and omg... I was expecting some rubish 3D'ish effects but it was actually bloody well done :x If the prices on those glasses drop, I'm getting them, especially since Stalker seems to be on the supported list.
