@those who are using the 20/30% depth high convergence setting what are your exact settings for depth\convergence: Example: Depth ??% \ Convergence ??%

Before You sacrifice the depth because of the crosshair I highly recommend to try the tweak with the profile of Call of Duty: World at War. I've played the complete game with it and it worked perfectly. This tweak offers You a laser sight that is placed at about 100 ft in front of Lara and so converges very good with almost all the enemies You are aiming - much better than the crosshair at screen depth. Practically it is the same effect Helixmod offers for the crosshair in Skyim and other games. Unfortunately the Nvidia laser sight isn't captured in screenshots so I only could take a photo from the screen. It predominantly shows the image for the right eye but as You can see the laser sight is placed on the character whereas the crosshair is significantly displaced: [img]http://i.imagebanana.com/img/kgqklp1v/Lasersight.JPG[/img] [url]http://i.imagebanana.com/img/kgqklp1v/Lasersight.JPG[/url] You will see if the profile tweak works for You when the game starts with the Nvidia laser sight enabled and You see two laser sights when You take off the shutter glasses. When You only see one laser sight in the center of the screen then unfortunately the tweak doesn't work for Your system and driver version. But give it a try!

So we just manually add a profile for Tomb Raider with NVIDIA Inspector and use Call of Duty: World at Wars profile settings?

strength --> from the regedit, set to 120% (please refer to the exact hex value post somewhere here)

[/quote] I'll try this when I have a chance; with 314.14 driver, we need to delete TR profile to do this though. the thing is, 20/30 depth + 50 Strength (everything is just right) and 20/30 depth + 120 strength (cutscene is off) somehow are the sweet spots for my 3D surround setup: it's very difficult to get a perfect sync between high depth and high strength for me.

@3d4dd , can you please explain the steps of doing what you mentioned , i dont have any experience with games profiles etc.. thanks!!

Here is a guide how to add Tomb Raider to the profile for CoD: World at War. As mentioned above I tried this with driver 306.97. I hope it also works with the actual driver. I also didn't notice any negative side effects using the CoD profile - but I don't use 3D Vision surround or SLI. [img]http://i.imagebanana.com/img/axezw7ct/inspector.jpg[/img] [url]http://i.imagebanana.com/img/axezw7ct/inspector.jpg[/url] - Download and install Nvidia Inspector - Start Nvidia Inspector and click on the red marked tool button (see 1. in the image) - A profile settings windows opens - Look for the profile for Tomb Raider 2013. As there is no official profile yet there should be a profile named "TombRaider" with "tombraider.exe" (see 2.) - Click on the dropdown button right beside the remove button and the "X" at "tombraider.exe" (see 3.). You have to remove "tombraider.exe" from an existing profile to be able to add it to the CoD profile. Eventually You will be told that this will remove the existing "TombRaider" profile but this doesn't matter. - Click the marked "apply changes" button (see 4.) - Search the profile for "Call of Duty: World at War" (see 5.) - Click the marked "add application" button (see 6.) - Choose "tombraider.exe" in the installation folder of TR 2013. Now there should be "tombraider.exe" in the application list (see blue marker in 7.) - Click the red marked "apply changes" button (see 7.) When You start TR the Nvidia driver should "identify" it as CoD, the laser sight enabled and (hopefully!) at the correct depth (not 2D). If the profile for CoD: World at War doesn't work You can try the profile for Mass Effect.

Thanks 3d4dd! I'll have to give it a go when I play later.

[quote="DeviiL"]H[quote="Laast"]Any trick to increase convergency beyond the max setting?[/quote] Hi, yes there is a reg key. I am a sucker for high convergence :) [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSSoftwareCrystal DynamicsTomb RaiderGraphics] "StereoStrength"=hex:02,00,00,40 This value is according to my calculations... about 150% 3D strenght. I still havent found the sweet spot for me but I think it might be 130% Here, change the values on the regkey if you want to try 105% "StereoStrength"=hex:CD,CC,8C,3F 110% "StereoStrength"=hex:9A,99,99,3F 115% "StereoStrength"=hex:67,66,A6,3F 120% "StereoStrength"=hex:34,33,B3,3F 125% "StereoStrength"=hex:01,00,C0,3F 130% "StereoStrength"=hex:CE,CC,CC,3F 135% "StereoStrength"=hex:9B,99,D9,3F 140% "StereoStrength"=hex:68,66,E6,3F 145% "StereoStrength"=hex:35,33,F3,3F 150% "StereoStrength"=hex:02,00,00,40 This was inspired on the work of Flugan with his Deus Ex app. Thank you Flugan, awesome work. Since I am not a programmer and cannot make an app for you guys... but If you want I cant post the spreasheed I made to calculate the percentage values beyond 100% of the game. Then you just have to paste the string on the reg file and execute.[/quote] DeviiL I am very interested in your spreadsheet so I can set convergence to 160% and beyond. I play the game on my HMZ-T2 and having the depth set to 100% it seems I need to crank up strength to 180% or beyond to get very nice convergence. Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea how to calculate the hex-code for convergence at 160% and beyond. So maybe you can share your spreadsheet just as you offered a few days ago or maybe you can post a few more values here beginning at 160% 3D strength.

I didn't like the red default laser sight, I changed it to the light blue one., like this. [-] and then set the transparency to 50, might even go higher than that. I was getting headshots with the bow before but it's so much easier now. :D

@TsaebehT: Good to hear that it works for You! Which driver do You use? @Joohan: Sorry, I don't have SLI and can't test it. Simply give it a try. If it doesn't work You can try the profile for Mass Effect, maybe there are more suitable profiles for shooter. If it also doesn't work You can remove TR from the other profile. If You want to prevent the original TR profile from beeing deleted when You remove tombraider.exe You can add any other exe file without profile (e.g. a launcher, etc.) to the TR profile BEFORE You remove tombraider.exe. So the original TR profile will not be deletet as there still is an associated exe file for it.

@3d4dd Thanks again! I'm using the latest beta driver, 314.14 BETA Driver. I was looking into the mod that enables/disables the laser sight when you aim but I don't think I like the idea of a black bar popping up on the bottom of the screen every time I aim either. Plus I'm using a controller, not a mouse. I know I could use something like xpadder/joy2key/etc. to map the trigger to RMB but again not too fond of that [type of] bar. :D

Hello gentlemen! New guy here or atleast my first post but been looking around since way back even before they changed the forum whitch seems very nice btw :) Annyway just wanted to say hello and say that im blown away by this game, awesome game with 3D Vision. One thing that keep bothering me is the camera that auto centers all the time and I cant see anywhere to disable the bloody thing, very annoing when playing with K/M, do you guys know if it's possible to disable it ?
