Hey Guys to anybody out there who still may play some old Glide games and Stereo unable to work under a newer system w/nVidia 3D Vidion I think I may have found a fix.. it is called Sweet FX and adds dx9 bloom effects and such to games..
Well I still Fly TAW(Total Air War) and old F22 Flight Simulator but it is dx6 and S3D no longer worked as we all know..
Well I just found out about Sweet FX and figured I would try it mostly for the Bloom Effects and getting S3D working was a total surprise..
Well this may be a fix for some older glide games that you use a wrapper like DGVoodoo on so give it a shot and report if it worked or not..
I can say for sure it works 100% in Total Air War cool!!
SWEET FX made S3D work in Total Air War under Glide..

Re: SWEET FX made S3D work in Total Air War under Glide..
yes I would especially if it was a glide game.. TAW was both DX and Glide.. I used the DGVoodo 1.50 wrapper just in case you are wondering.. I could try it with nGlide as well but I was totally surprised when I saw the double image without my glasses..
Been 2 Years since I seen that sim in S3D cant wait till we fly next wed..

Oh man! I remember Screamer. That game was sick! Talk about a blast from the past.

Screamer (and Screamer 2) are both available from GoG (gog.com) iirc. Not sure if they have 3d options tho
Personally, I don't think I played Screamer - but I spent far too much time playing Screamer 2 networked (even with the glitches / crashes / etc). Might have to give this a try over the xmas break - Screamer 2 in 3D should be a blast

Screamer Rally (which I think is Screamer 3) was the best racing game back in the day (under 3DFx anyway, software render sucked).
Those games were all early LAN classics!

I just bought M1 Tank Platoon 2 should see if S3D really does work under any glide game ..

Re: SWEET FX made S3D work in Total Air War under Glide..
Not actually in stereoscopic. It's doubling the 3d rendering, but appears to be a single plane at a distance your Nvidia depth setting dictates. If anyone has ever gotten TAW in real S3D, please let me know. bummed out
