can anyone get this beautiful game to work in s3d?? (geforce 3d Vision in particular)

I have not.. currently after fooling around for a couple hours it does not allow convergence to be set. separation yes but no depth.

STRANGELY HOWEVER i did have it working for a time but I just cant figure out how to repeat that setup. It was amazing s3d detail with cannon balls flying out of screen and then i switched one setting and it was gone not to return. Maybe it was a fluke. I have tried all the usual suspects, antialias, postprocessing, etc.

Anyway if anyone figures either this out please give a holler..

see my system specs below

The way to do it is you need to turn your advanced driver settings (stereo driver settings) on. There should be a tick box somewhere to do this.

Then you control your convergence (pop-out) setting to do this. Here is a guide that explains how everything works:

thanks for quick response Neil, but i have tried all that.. problem is using ctrl f5 and f6 has no effect other than equally spreading foreground and background. no stereo effect.

crazy that I had it and then lost it though.. have tried every combination of settings i can imagine.

Try turning off your post processing effects (HDR, bloom, etc.)

When settings are too high, the NVIDIA driver won't work properly in some games.
