The Zalman display is true 3D, drivers are by Nvidia, some 3D games are great on it.FSX is one of the 100 games on their compatibility list.Has anyone tried running FSX or FS9 on one of these?I know the Zalman is highly regarded for 3D video and pictures. Such as displaying photos and videos from the new Fuji W1 digital point and shoot camera (3D). Because I have read the Photo-3D email list for years and they love it over there.But that does not mean that it is any good in Flight Simulator!Hence my question. http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/1391/zalm...ive/index8.html

I can't comment on the Zalman, other than it does look promising. In your referenced (Tweaktown) review they commented on the IMAX system of filling the viewer's full peripheral vision as a means of creating a 3D effect: Quote- "IMAX has gone that much further, creating a massive screen which is so big, as to take up a great deal of our peripheral vision and thus

I don't believe the size of the screen alone can create a 3d effect, but rather the curvature in combination with the size. You need a slight inward curve (i.e. towards the viewer) to simulate 3d.

Correct- and that's the beauty of multi monitors- the outer mons are angled toward the viewer- wrap around, so that the centre point of each mon is square to to the viewer's eyes. This is the secret of maintaining the horizon in a straight line across all three mons when the aircraft rolls. And it immerses the pilot to feel he/she is IN the picture.Your own little desktop IMAX! Unfortunately, screenshots show the monitors as if they were in a flat plane- so this pic misses the effect of wrap around. (If you suffer from vertigo, I suggest having a barf bag handy when flying rolls or loops- especially an Immelmann 1/2 loop and roll combined! It does work beautifully.)Alex ReidBonanza @ Duluth R27. This scene is actually 45" wide/ 26" from my eyes and covers about 170

Just add 3 fresnel lenses for instant wraparound IMAX.
