Hi Guys,
This post seems to be the only search result on this whole miserable planet that I could find for Madden NFL 08 with 3D Vision.
I'm of a curious nature, and I wanted to learn something about this sport that I know absolutely nothing about, and apparently this is the last version that made it to PC, before the licence got hijacked and turned into one of the most lucrative (or "lousiest", depending on which side of the shares portfolio you're on) types of exclusives, the "genre" exclusives. Just like they did with baseball a little later.
A few years ago I learned about baseball, watching Youtube full games and playing Super Mega Baseball which 4everAwake had the kindness to tweak in 3D for me.
Now I wanted to do the same with American football, and it was already difficult to source a digital copy since nobody seemed to want my money.
My question is: do you guys have an idea of how to make the convergence hotkeys work in this game? The Nvidia recommendation is Excellent, but the game is flat and convergence cannot be changed.
Maybe in light of all the recent discoveries about profiles and flags, there could even be a way to manually change the value in a profile, as last resort?
Thank you in advance. If others are curious about this sport, the game is just a 2Gb download from the buccaneers, but I'm sure I'll find an official download, maybe in the EA Origin archives.

Chiri has an unlocker, I've never used it.
The convergence value isn't locked via a profile setting.
Did you hold down ctrl+F5/F6 for a long time? Sometimes they are very slow to respond in certain games.
Also are you using PC version or emulator?

BTW, it seems that there is a mod for this game.
"This is the final release of the FF/FI XV Mod for Madden NFL 08. It updates the game to the 2014 season, with graphical updates, roster updates, schedule updates, and more."

Hi D-Man
I'm using PC version
Convergence hotkeys don't work, no matter how long I press them.
Chiri's wrapper, which I used indeed in several games, does not seem to do anything.
Thank you anyway, I'll probably try it in 2D to see if I like the sport. it's strange, depth seems to work fine, it's just convergence that's locked to a very low value.
The game is probably too old...

Try using a different profile.
I see that madden08.exe is assigned to Madden NFL Games.
In this profile it has
Setting ID_0x702a0ab2 = 0xe374baf0 InternalSettingFlag=V0 // AutoConvergence
Setting ID_0x708db8c5 = 0xdf28a74e InternalSettingFlag=V0 // StereoConvergence
Setting ID_0x70bf3c6b = 0xfb933890 InternalSettingFlag=V0 // AutoConvergenceAdjustPace
It might be possible that one of these settings is locking out the hot keys. Previously when I've seen locked convergence it was done in the game engine.
Also try changing the hot keys to something different. It's possible that the assigned keys are being used by the game and causing a conflict.
It turns out that chiri's unlocker mentioned above only works with older drivers up to 327.23

Another option would be to look for the game's setting in the registry and if there are convergence setting there, modify them.

Of course iz3d or TriDef may work with the game.

So how did it work out?
