Hi,
I bought the 3vision 2 yesterday,
after i installed the driver it worked great out of the box (test screens, slideshow,...)
so i went to nvidia live site to watch some video clips, there it told me to install the following :
-new nvidia driver for my gtx580
-firefox
-flashplayer
so i did all that and i was able to watch some videos.
but then i wanted to check out some games in 3d
so i launched BF 3 , but whatever i do i could'nt get it in stereoscopic 3d mode.
the 'activate 3d' toggle dont work anymore.(even after binding other keys to it)
and the game just simply starts up normally in lightboost mode.
so i guess i need to figure out how to reactivate the toggles again but even after uninsntalling drivers etc . .it wont work ...
could anybody explain wich steps i should take to play 3d games pls ?
tnxz
hi ,
as i am new to this, heres a noob question :
when you want to play a game in 3d how do you proceed ?
do you start the game and will it automatic switch to stereoscopic vieuw or do you need some kind of settings or start up parameter?
and what if you want to play in 2d ? do you disable it in nvidia pannel?
(i restarted my pc a dozen times and also uninstalled drivers / etc..)
i will try to uninstall all the drivers and nvidia software , is there any driver you can recommend or can i install the latest?
also : do i need to install the vision 2 software also or is it allready in the driver package?
do i need to connect the vision box before or after driver installation ?
tnxz :)
ps = are there game demos i can download that have no issues at all ? (like f.e. orcs must die2 on steam ,will it work in 3D? )

You can use the latest drivers, but for BF3, it's not necesssary, and you might have better luck with version 320.49. That was a version before they started making a lot of less than excellent changes.
Probably what happened is that stereo is disabled after you reinstall drivers. Every time. It's crazy annoying, but whenever you install new drivers you have to run through the setup wizard [i]again[/i].
Check the 3D tab in the NVidia Control Panel. Click to enable Stereoscopic and it will run the wizard again.
Let us know if that doesn't seem to be it.

thanks for youre time,
the wizzard runs fine and the nvidia 3d demo works amazingly well.
but activate/ deactivate 3D toggle is still an issue , also not workign with the
enable3d / disable3d shortcuts in the start menu ...
so it works when i :
-test with the 3d demo
-watch a video on youtube / nvidia live
-3d slideshow player
but when i start a game it just starts in ... 2d
(monitor is in 3d mode 120hz, 3d is activated in nvidia pannel)
the goggles wont flip on and the game is not stereoscopic.
can it be that the game is not correctly isntalled?
bf3 isnt showing up in the nvidia 'installed games'.
so arent other games (warface, etc..)
only bf4 show up but not 3d ready.

Since it's working for 3D demo and youtube and slideshow, it seems like it's set up OK, and the driver is OK.
Should work automatically. When you run a game, it should switch to 3D, and the emitter comes on without having to hit Ctrl-T. That's the usual way it works.
In the BF3 case, I think you need to enable it from within the game itself. Some games have their own system for doing 3D and are not automatic.
Make sure your screen is at 120Hz and right resolution before you launch game.

Tried other games? I recall hearing BF3 had issues in 3d, but I could be mistaken.
