Mohamengina Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Are we going to see any plans for further 3d vision optimisation from ED? I've been playing the game in 3d quite a bit and have been impressed with the effect on the game in general, but there are still a few issues that need to be resolved. In particular, the buttons not being very easy to press, the engine exhaust looking strange and the drivers thinking it is a rally game and not DCS.
PeterP Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) You are barking to the wrong moon.... I have another approach to this existing problem: you are using NVIDIA drivers, .... someone else is on AMD... and many other switch... and some use other 3D solutions like IZ3D... ... See.. its not so easy - there are many approaches that use the same DirectX SDK .. but they all interpret some shader-rendering different... Why they do this ?! Point. To be honest: the HUD in DCS has to be fixed by ED - It has no Z-direction up to now... but all other stuff is related to GPU drivers that compile the info. and the problem is that each vendor is "tweaking" his DX so it gets the best FPS... (here is a very simplified answer: ) and NVIDIA is simply not interested that your clouds are rendered well .. because no First Person shooter has clouds in the maps they are using... ....some of the vendors just cutting features off to get more frames(FPS) in 3D....which they think are not so important for the the gamer... Conclusion: ED/TFC has to fix the HUD - all other things belong to the GPU vendor because as long ED/TFC is following the DX-SDK's no one should see a anomaly in 3D.

jeffyd123 Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 thanks for the info peter... I have a 3d tv and just installed a new 560Ti and was thinking of buying the glasses but Im gonna hold of for a while now. i7 8700K @ 4.4Ghz, 16G 3200 RAM, Nvidia 1080Ti, T16000 HOTAS, TIR5, 75" DLP Monitor

No!!! - who am I that my blabbing prevent you to explorer the wonderful possibilities the world has to offer ?! - yes, it has indeed some shortcomings up to now but its light-years ahead of the awkward felling of the Red/Green glasses you had to wear in the 60ies when you wanted to watch a monster-B-movie . Please buy the glasses immediately !!! (even if they are awfully overpriced!!:D) If you don't : You will miss a lot of fun! Please read again: have been impressed with the effect on the game in general, but there are still a few issues that need to be resolved. In particular, . He is only talking about "few" issues. - and I also replied regarding this "few" issues in general. and that doesn't means that the 3D experience as a whole is broken. Please never again make a life-changing decision upon what you read in a forum... Make your own decision/experience in the first place! Take everything what you read with a grain of salt - and have always a close look in what context something has been written. Edited March 17, 2012 by PeterP
jeffyd123 Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 hey peter... I had the early 3d glasses from nvidia and I liked them.. the effect was cool (the headaches weren't). I also understand the new ones are light years ahead. The one thing I remember was in FSX there were lots of problems with 2D things (like HUDs and landing lights) that were always misaligned. 2D objects in other games were a mess too.... you had to use a 3D aiming reticle that was switched on in the NVidia driver. I spent some good $$ on those early glasses and I'm hesitant to spend it again unless i get the 3D I want (what a baby eh? LOL). besides, Im considering a warthog. thanks again for the info i7 8700K @ 4.4Ghz, 16G 3200 RAM, Nvidia 1080Ti, T16000 HOTAS, TIR5, 75" DLP Monitor
