AION is NOT 3D Ready Not even close
  1 / 2    
Uh oh..
I decided to give it a go ($15) and it works but not well enough to get a 3D ready status. I am not sure what Nvidia is thinking on this one.

1) Do not use the "Higher" graphic setting. It has lots of lighting issues. You have to use "Default"

2) Nameplates that you select (click with mouse) are at the wrong depth. Real annoying. Oddly enough, the nameplates you don't select are fine.

3) I love how it says "Some objects may render at the wrong depth". Objects are fine.

4) Water reflections are messed up as well, but tolerable.

I really think no one tested this one. I would rate it as "Good"

Manuel G --- What were you guys thinking on this one?

Fable 3 should be labeled 3D Ready in this driver

Havent played this game much, but from what I remember ... the graphics engine was updated at some point, it broke some of the 3D.
I believe you can still run it using the old engine, that's likely where the nvidia status is based on ... you should know Nvidia hardly updates any profiles ... ever, so try not to hold out hope there /w00twave.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':w00twave:' />

Yeah, you can use the older (default) and newer (higher). I tested it on both and it was bad. It was the same before the new engine.

Sorry you had to spend money to test this but it looks like I will pass on this. Hopefully Guild Wars 2 will still be 3D Vision supported.

This kills me. I am already paying for it. Honestly, if you play in default graphics mode (not highest), turn the water down to 4/5. It is playable and is amazing. The whole nameplate thing is really annoying tho.

Does not appear in the October 19, 2011 patch notes!!!

ANDREW, YOU SHOULD CHANGE THIS SO NOONE ELSE PAYS $15 FOR NOTHING (well, no 3D at least)!! <----wow, that's what angry text looks like...) /wallbash.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wallbash:' /> /wallbash.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wallbash:' /> /wallbash.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wallbash:' /> /wallbash.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wallbash:' />

I am going to test it again tonight. My subscription ends the day of the next update, October 19th (no, I didn't plan that). It works well enough in 3D vision after my tweaks (check my posts to see how). I like the 3D effect way more than WOW. I did not see any 3D mention in that patch but the Korean version is getting 3.0 that day and there is mention of 3D there soooo...
If they can get this in true 3D ready status, it would be a great showpiece for what 3D vision can do.

Hence my anticipation /spaz.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':spaz:' />

Let me start off by saying I was disappointed that this was rated 3D ready and it wasn't.
Let me also state that I am not an AION fanboy, I just like MMO's (especially ones in 3D, which WOW no longer does properly)

I took a chance and re upped after the 2.7 update AND IT IS FIXED AND 3D READY!!!!!!!!
I am estatic. No, it is not the best MMO but the colors and 3D effect are great. I would highly recommend this one. Be sure to play on the DEFAULT (not Higher, which is broke in 2D as well) and turn down the water quality a notch or 2. This game runs at a steady 60fps on my rig (2 x GTX 470). In 2D this game was just ok, in 3D, it is incredible.

Last 2 things:

Can Nvidia change my header to "AION is 3D Ready"
and

Thanks Nvidia and NCSoft for making this work. /thanks.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thanks:' />

/clap.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':clap:' />
