    Re: L4D in 3D!

    I am interested in this
    I am waiting for several people to comment with details of their test results
    if it works i will get the glasses and give it a go (but not if the glasses are expensive)

    You can usually get the glasses for free, so they aren't very expensive at all.

    Re: L4D in 3D!

    I'm running windows 7 64bit so I'm not sure this will work... I'm dual booting on XP but for some reason my keyboard doesn't let me choose XP on the bootscreen so I won't be able to try it with XP .

    Sounds fun though!

    Will report. Was at CES and saw this, and already have all the pre-reqs. In fact, building a system to do this for the TV since at CES they were showcasing it for television more than gaming.

    Re: L4D in 3D!

    I just cant work this out
    http://gamerslastwill.com/2009/02/02...eah-heres-how/

    step 4 execute registry hack
    start > run > regedit
    I can find this folder but then what ?
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D]
    EDIT worked this out, open the link in IE7 and its a tiny file to download, then double click to run and run it with regedit

    5. Enter the nvidia control panel and enable the steroscopic settings in the stereo tab.
    wheres the stereo tab, is it in the 3d section, i dont see it ?

    thanks for any help

    Re: L4D in 3D!



    the pictures is in 3d, put on your red & blue (cyan) glasses

    for me, i couldn't get the nvidia drives to work, i dont know why

    then i tried iz3d
    http://www.iz3d.com/t-dcdriver.aspx
    it worked easy as pie
    supports red & blue (cyan) glasses and yellow & blue (superbowl glasses)
    I also did not have to lower my res or graphics at all and no FPS drop, its great

    I justed played 20 mins with Red Talon and he can testify that all i said was how amazing it all was in 3D and I said that again and again

    you have to try it !!

    put on your red and blue glasses

    it gets even better, while ingame you can change the depth of seperation
    the first picture was at the default 20%, this second one is at 300%

    3D is just so awesome and this game is ideal for it
