February 23, 201115 yr Author .... sound interesting, and tnx u guys for all your comments.Now. What will be the most effective way to experiment the 3D technology, assuming that:My 3 hp 22" monitors are not compatible, with nVIDIA 3D Gauges, and I do not, really, motivated to replace them ????
February 23, 201115 yr NVidia glasses together with a compatible 120 Hz monitor is fun-tastic, except for all lights as mentioned above - runway, taxiway, approach, NAV, strobelights etc. because by default these objects were unfortunately defined without the 3D-Z component (no depth information) to save rendering time, thus disturbing an otherwise great 3D effect. We can only hope that the light problems get fixed in FLIGHT.Solution, somewhat: I recommend UK2000 airports (and a few others) who use real 3D objects for their runways lights. the effect at dusk/dawn/night is fantastic. nothing better than taxiing at night at any of their 3D-lights-enabled xtreme airports like Manchester, Gatwick & Heathrow. they have free demo versions available:http://www.uk2000scenery.com/<br><br>DX10 preview is not required at all. framerates will decrease somewhat, depending on scenery complexity. could be as much as 50%. so turn on your GHz afterburner.<br><br>for the NVidia NVision shutterglasses you need a 120 Hz capable monitor. for anaglyph glasses (red/green) you don't, but those are a joke, not really recommended for FSX. further details:<br><br>http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-main.html<br><br>http://developer.nvidia.com/object/nvision08-stereo.html<br>

Upsides, wonderful emersion into flightsim. Downsides, lighting as mentioned above, darkening of the overall monitor (haven't figured a way to lighten the overall scenery maybe ENB series, and some hit on framerate.

February 24, 201115 yr Oh yeah, I forgot that everything became darker on screen and the light issue. I didn't notice as much for games that were labeled NV3D ready. I have ACERs 3D 120hz monitor and have to warn you 3D monitors are not cheap. It really was a passing fad for me as far as gaming goes. One cool thing you can do is control the screen "popout" For me the coolest popout is Batman's cape as he runs and an ole game called Starshatterer's Hud.
