3d vision discover filters
Hey all, i recently upgraded to windows 7 and discovered (no pun intended) that the drivers for my 9800 GT support Anaglyph rendering. Figures i go and buy a set of Anaglyph glasses, but ive realised that they are of the magenta cyan type. Now i was playing around with the reg settings and to my surprise i found the settings:

LeftAnaglyphFilter

and

RightAnaglyphFilter

now when i played around, i could only seam to get three colour combinations working.

this got me puzzled to how to get the filters working with my 3d glasses.

i then noticed a pattern, the red green, yellow blue, green magenta,

those colours are the opposite of each other!

now when i figured this out: this was only using the LeftAnaglyphFilter and just inverting the filter colour for the right.

how the hell do i force use the RightAnaglyphFilter?! there isnt a "dissableinvertfilter" option, maybe nvidia should get this right filter working!

any ideas

thanks

The three correct combinations of colors are:

[b]Red/Cyan:[/b]
"LeftAnaglyphFilter"=dword:ffff0000
"RightAnaglyphFilter"=dword:ff00ffff

[b]Yellow/Blue:[/b]
"LeftAnaglyphFilter"=dword:ffffff00
"RightAnaglyphFilter"=dword:ff0000ff

[b]Magenta/Green:[/b]
"LeftAnaglyphFilter"=dword:ffff00ff
"RightAnaglyphFilter"=dword:ff00ff00

With this combinations one color-channel of RGB is directed to one eye and the other two channels are directed to the other eye.
Other color combinations doesnt make sense.

Magenta/Cyan would mean that the green channel is directed to both eyes and that doesn't work. So I guess you have Magenta/Green glasses at home(the ones from "Journey to the middle of earth 3D"?).

Buy a decent pair of red/cyan glasses like the Pro-Ana anaglyph glasses:

Congrats! You just discovered (no pun intended either) the basic principle of anaglyph stereoscopy! As per Flint (nice AD icon btw) I don't see [i]magenta[/i]/cyan giving good results, haven't seen those glasses either.... I personally prefer the color code for anaglyph. If you alter the settings via registry you probably have to restrict the rights to alter them for the system otherwise they will fall back everitime. There is a post of mine somewher that has more detailed info what to do, too lazy to dig that out....

I found the detailed info:
[quote]...newer drivers for some reason always fall back to the default setting when you fire up the test application (or any other stereo app).
To prevent this, we just need to alter some permissions in the registry:
If you go the branch containing the settings (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D) then right click, navigate to "permissions"/"advanced" select "System" then "edit" and choose "deny" to "set value" - hit OK...[/quote]
It really works - the settings doesn't snap back. But this fix prevents me from saving game-profiles.

If you want to use other glasses than Red/Cyan you have to use a special setting additionally to the Left-/RightAnaglyphFilters:
"StereoAnaglyphType"=dword:00000000

This setting changes the saturation of the image and only Full-Color-Anaglyph-mode supports other glasses.
"StereoAnaglyphType"=dword:00000000 Full-Color-Anaglyph-mode
"StereoAnaglyphType"=dword:00000001 3D-Vision-Discover Half-color-mode with color-correction-shader
"StereoAnaglyphType"=dword:00000002 Black/White-Anaglyph-Mode

@QuadrophoeniX: You really know ArchimedeanDynasty? /woot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':woot:' /> For me it is still a favorite game. The story really carried me away - so atmospheric. A lot new games never reached this.
