Decline of 3D Vision - Thought you all should know - Dark Times Ahead :(
1 / 14
From : http://helixmod.blogspot.com/2014/07/decline-of-3d-vision.html?utm_source=BP_recent
"Around two and a half years ago Helix introduced Helixmod wrapper. Many people including myself got involved in the project and we have released around 250 patches to date. Patching a game is a difficult process that very few people are familiar with and was always meant to be a supplemental. Our aim was to show NVIDIA how much of a demand there was for 3D gaming and gain more 3D Vision titles. Unfortunately, as time progressed we had less and less titles.
As we had less and less support I questioned NVIDIA as to why we are having less support. They said in short, That I didn't understand and that developers are not likely to want to implement because it will not effect sales enough. The fact remains though that NVIDIA is not offering any incentive to developers. They blame them for the lack of support but they sponsor developers to support their technologies such as PHYSX, TXAA, ETC.
Not surprisingly the modders of Helixmod have been treated poorly. As most know, we are not employee's of NVIDIA. Nor are we paid for our time/contributions. We do not do this for NVIDIA but to help the community often at great costs. All we ask is that NVIDIA supports 3D Vision ~ which they haven't. Not get in our way ~ which they've done several times.
This may come as a shock to many people since we have been almost the sole method of support for 3D vision. NVIDIA has broken our patches on multiple occasions and frankly made our lives more difficult. Such as...
-Breaking Helix's patches for Mass Effect 3 and Kingdom of Amalur [Took 6 months of constant requesting to resolve]
-Breaking patches for DMC / Mass Effect 2. [Gained around 150 signatures requesting aid. Never resolved. I had to spend my time making changes that harmed the patches to get them compatible]
-Made several requests to change profiles on games we patched. [We learned to not bother, these requests get ignored]
-Helix made a request that they look into fixing the issue that occurs via 3D vision that causes distant lights to cut off in Bioshock Infinite.
NVIDIA has done many other things that upset all of us ranging from Negligence to False Advertising. To the point many games including ones we added support to are claimed to be 3D Vision supported.
-The ratings have always been considered a joke but the Geforce Page is notorious for claiming support on titles that are even rated unsupported.[This has improved as of late]
-They even made a special advertisement of a game that was patched by myself and is otherwise unplayable.
-Depth buffer/Fake 3D is a cheap method to easily gain support of virtually every title. NVIDIA is giving these games high ratings to attract new users.
-Since they are no longer contacting developers about support. Any game with depth buffer support and is sponsored by NVIDIA will be claimed as 3D Vision supported.
Not surprisingly, over the years many modders decided it was time to move on. Not that I or anyone could blame them. Patching is a difficult process that takes many, many hours. Not to mention we constantly run into issues with SLI/NON-SLI/Patches to want to deal with NVIDIA BS. So we went from a few modders to two, Mikear69 and myself[Eqzitara].
Its mainly been the two of us for a year and though we have done our best many have grown frustrated with the lack of our support of certain titles. Unfortunately it has become clear to everyone not to rely on NVIDIA so in turn this puts all the pressure on us. We do not entirely blame these individuals but its become clear that as time goes on more and more people will become frustrated.
Both Mikear69 and myself agreed that its time to move on. We will be continuing for a time but we both will be leaving sometime during the Fall season.. Please keep in mind that I speak for both of us in saying this was not an easy decision. I have patched around 100 titles and given support to 1000's of users. Despite my work 3D vision has long since become a product I can not recommend to others. Its gotten to the point that whenever I speak to a new user I honestly feel sorry for them.
We would like especially thank..
Helix, who did so much for 3D Vision.
All modders who have contributed.
People who donated towards costs of web server. Which will keep the web-site/file server up for many years.

I can't make any promises but I plan to last till Fable Anniversary and Borderlands Pre Sequel [if possible] but afterwards I will be moving onto Oculus Rift and recommend the same to all others. "
I am severely saddned by this news, but I can't & don't blame them, Nvidia has gotten to big for their britches, I for one have been with them (NVidia) since the beginning, right after the '3DFX' DAYS! BUT! NOW I will go to the red team, Nvidia you don't know what you had, and now you lost it! SHAME ON YOU!

Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.
I don't blame them, I can't. They've given us many excellent years of amazing support out of the kindness of their harts, putting in so much hard work. But this decision is absolutely devastating, and is truly the death of 3d vision.
This is especially upsetting given 3dmigoto's success, and all the hard work bo3b has put into it.
Please don't do this.

Sorry to hear that. If it's of any consequence for everybody else reading, there's always tridef with the ability to adjust the depth wall so that things won't get blurry/burny when close to the screen and they have auto convergeance working. 2 things nvidia doesn't have that have a major impact on the likeability of 3D. And also they provide fixes similarly to these but without having to put extra items in the game folders and it will work when 3d is on so that effects aren't removed for when you are not playing in 3D. So all hope isn't lost yet.

Yeah, but Tridef doesn't work on (most) 3d vision monitors, requires the use of side-by-side mode (halving the effective resolution), and doesn't support SLI.

This is terrible news. If Nvidia doesn't do something to rectify this and start giving us real support I too will be moving too AMD simply out of protest. Especially if 3d support is starting to look better over there
I think 3d is the only thing that's been keeping me in gaming at all at this point. (I've been a gamer for 30 years)
Thanks to all the modders that were part of this amazing community over the years

Sad news. I still hope for a bright future, whether it be with the Oculus, 3d Vision # or Holodeck... etc. With time, gaming will (hopefully) only get better :]

Yea I think next time round ill be heading to amd. more bang for your buck. but with this news there is no reason for me to stay with NVidia I was only hanging in there for the 3d vision

I had a feeling this was coming, title after title being released with Nvidia branding yet no support for 3D Vision.
I will also be moving to Occulus RIFT and packing up the Nvidia 3D kit for good as soon as the commerical release is out, I recommend that everyone on here looks to alternative solutions. Nvidia 3D Vision was a speck of dust that failed to land but instead, drifted into the abyss. The HELIX fixes often determined my decision to buy a game, since every AAA title I had any interest in was assumed to be poorly implemented with 3D support and 99.9% of the time I was right.
Anyway, I no longer have to be bound by Nvidia for my GPU's, since 3D Vision was a shadow that vanished. Instead I will look to performance for my next upgrade...
Good work Nvidia, you certainly now how to increase your user base!

As necropants said,This is terrible news.I was almost upgrading to a 780 ti,but now this news changed my mind.Thank you for all your beautiful and hard work pro 3d Vision.

Bad News all around. The tridef camp is no better lack of support on AAA titles. Does anyone know the status of Helix DX11 Mod ? Or is that dead to ?
I would like to thank all the modders for there support.
Just remember AMD dropped support for 3D a long time ago Tridef is no longer an AMD sponsor.
Mike is the main guy behind the DX11 fixes (with bo3b mainly handling the wrapper side of things, which is also vital), so this means they're probably dead too.

Ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous on behalf of Nvidia. If the Rift wasn't coming out just in time to replace 3d vision, I'd be pissed enough to switch back to ATi.

Wow, and ya, sad indeed. Not me sad, ok, ya, but really a sad situation, and fully understand that without support, it could not ultimately continue.
Just a couple days ago, I had a break, and went to the helixmod site and thought back at a time not that long ago when there were what, 15, 20 fixes? Amazing the amount of time and effort that was put in by all those guys, and others here in this place too, all for the benefit of the community, the love of true 3d gaming, and no doubt too, the challenge of the puzzle.
I sincerely thank and salute you guys that took all the time and effort to give true 3d gaming pleasure to so many here. Yes, for some it does end in frustration, but please, please, know and keep in your heart, the joy that you brought to all of the folks that downloaded all of the fixes. Never forget or lose sight of that. We can not control the outside forces that cause grief, but we can bring happiness to others.
Ok, that was mushy, but that's what I feel :-)
