Nice shots, ....but the cockpit would be only really perfect if the HUD would have a X axis (as it is named in the view.lua) - so it would be really focused to infinity. Right now I always have to close one Eye to see where the gun piper is pointing at.

 

View.lua:

-- HUD displacement for the HUD-only view (for cockpit builders).

-- Y-axis - up/down, Z-axis - left/right, in meters. X-axis (size) not implemented yet.

HUDOnlyPoint = {}

HUDOnlyPoint[su_27] = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0}

function GetHUDOnlyPoint(iType)

local p = validate(HUDOnlyPoint,iType)

return p[1], p[2], p[3]

end

It is sure nice for taking a free-ride from time to time (breathtaking is a better explanation) , but as the HUD is right now - I have (sadly) to say that it is useless for a real combat-sortie. Edited April 18, 2012 by PeterP

Since I don't have 3D glasses, those screenies look kinda crappy to me. :D

[sammaz]

Just put some new shots of the inside of the cockpit in 3D...It's jaw dropping.

When you look down at the ground , keep focus on 1 point, and then bank in that direction it really feels like you are there. This is just on (1) single 50 in. 3DTV...I cant imagine how cool this could get.

[bluepilot76]

Please excuse my density, what do I need to experience this goodness?

[sammaz]

800.00 $ USD for a single 50in. 3DTV

 

1200.00 $ USD for (3) Acer H5360 projectors in Nvidia 3D Vision Surround. One single GTX 680 can now power this setup, but I would recommend using (2) GTX 680's so that you can max your anti-aliasing.

 

The casual DCS fan can now build a "military grade" stereoscopic simulator for dirt cheap.

 

Once you experience this sim in 3D you will never go back.

Oh. I was hoping the answer was some of those 2.99 glasses, and maybe a free download off nvidia!

[sammaz]

actually I just looked up your laptop spec and you can experience this right now if you have a 3DTV.

 

1. Just plug your HDMI from laptop into 3DTV

 

2. Enable "3DTV Play" in your Nvidia Control panel. There is a 14-day free trial that is fully functional from Nvidia. http://www.nvidia.com/object/3dtv-play-14day-trial.html

 

3. Start DCS A10C with the 1280x720 configuration described here http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=87103

 

4. TADA! Dont get sick from doing barrel rolls 100ft. from the deck.

There is a 3d tv at work, maybe I will give it a try there. Cheers!

Oh no you don't!!! You and the other folks around here...first it was TIR (w ProClip of course), then a Warthog and now this.:cry:

 

Nope, I won't listen.:helpsmilie:

:D

[Daze]

I might invest in 3D Vision, would be so cool flying in 3D. Not sure how good my FPS would be though using my GTX570

[Harzach]

Bah! I have a protoanomaly (red deficiency) in my left eye and a tritanomaly (blue deficiency) in my right eye, so anaglyph 3D just gives me a headache.

lol...I hear ya...I am new to DCS and they are really blowing my mind with the possibilities.

 

I understand everyone in these forums already has investments in DCS hardware but....3D is SICK!

 

Get this asap!

More research on this..

 

I just found out that for 900.00 you can beat a 3D TV or triple projectors.

-Sony's new HMD supports 3DTV Play at 720p

 

-DCS A10C supports 3DTV Play at 720p

 

-TrackIR connects to HMD with this clip

 

http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/02-products/product-Vector-PRO.html

 

So, you are getting the same 720p 3D immersion (including peripheral vision) + with TrackIR...This will give you the ability to press your head against the cockpit glass and look down...I bet that would be so sick.

 

So really DCS should offer a package for ~1000.00 that gives you the HMD, TrackIR, and A10C game. This would be an industry first and an all-in-one jaw dropper.

And here's a good idea, if it can be made to work:

I have 3D vision but have not tried it with DCS. Is it actually supported? Any known issues?

Nice!...I would really like to try this test :

 

Sony HMD 3DTV Play + TrackIR solution vs. This Curved Screen setup with (3) Acer 3DVsion Projectors.

 

I guess the actual screens would add a bit to your cost ~1000.00 for primo ones.

 

So for the (3) projector route you would be looking at 2200.00$

 

HDM and TrackIr = 1000.00$

I have just been flying around for an hour inside the cockpit and there is nothing wrong with it...even the circl that is your crosshair is in 3D as it should be. It resides on a 2D plane in the cockpit a few feet away as it does in reality.

 

Some 3DTV tips for flying in the cockpit...

 

1. Set your convergence on the gimbal ball. By this I mean "Hold your 3DVision Hotkey for increasing convergence untill the gimbal ball is perfectly aligned (viewable without glasses). This gives all the other controls a perfect depth. Stick, seat, HUD, dashboard, side control panels.

 

2. I set my xbox360 controler Right-stick to be my cockpit view control...flight controls on the left stick, your basic xbox360 gamepad...and it just astounds me as I look out the cockpit window as I bomb indescrimanently...lol

 

When your convergence is set on the Gimbal you can clearly see\read all of your controls as you look around the cockpit...It is UNREAL!

 

 

Back to the A10C that is now my livingroom! :) I will post more screens of my joyriding in a min... http://photos.3dvisionlive.com/sammaz/

 

THANX DCS TEAM!!!:thumbup:

Wait a minute! You have all that cash in 3D and you are flying with an Xbox controller!:cry:

[sammaz]

I got a 50in. 3D Panasonic back in Feb 2011. Paid 900.00

 

Its also the livingroom TV...So I don't think my rig is too special compared to some of the users here. I saw some youtube vids of Multi-projector setups using DCS...one that was doing in-air refueling that was amazing even in 2D.

[cichlidfan]

Well, I might have to check it out. I am not dragging the game machine out to the TV so I will have to give it a try with the laptop. I will at least use one of my backup joysticks though!!
