ArmA2 - "non-stereo display mode"

[quote name='TM74' post='552759' date='Jun 15 2009, 06:49 AM']If youre using Vista (like me), you have to add the "[b]-winxp[/b]" parameter (without quotes) to the shortcut in order to activate 3D-Vision.

Looks really amazing! Can't wait for my TrackIR to arrive today :D

My Specs:

Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 @3.48 GHz
4 GB Ram (3GB useable)
Win Vista 32 GB
GTX 280[/quote]


That did it for me - adding that to the shortcut made it work well with a bit of extra tweaking. Now I really need to upgrade my video card :wacko:

Hey guys,

I have Arma 2 as well running in vista (64bit) and i tried the -winxp thing and all i get is two screens (i think it is the two images) but they do not blend and i dont get the 3d effect.

Any ideas? i can post pictures if you like - it is really strange the 3d is there it just is seperated way to much and does not give the effect.

Also i am adding the -winxp part to the end of the line in the .exe? like so : "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe" -winxp ?

Many thanks for your help!

I had the same problem, just make sure you have the advanced keyboard option enabled and use the CTRL+F5/F6 to get it to align.

We really need an profile for ARMA2!

You can play it with 3d vision enabled; but only with allot of convergence; no depth. When you increase the depth the HUD will show up double. And that gives me a real good headache after playing 15 mins. Also the aiming will not work properly with enough depth.

Please NVIDIA get us an profile for the already legendary game :) With my TrackIR headtracking and Stereo 3d it looks really awesome and gives you the feeling your really there ;) Best 3d experience till now; a lot better than tomb raider becuase of the head tracking.

Does this crash for anyone else after about 30 minutes of play??? Whenever I play in 3d the game will crash after bout 30-40 minutes... actually i get bsod. other than that it's absolutely one of the best so far in 3d ... the actually immersion and depth are amazing!

It does not crash on my pc. I'm using Windows 7 64bit though.

You have to check out the S3D with track ir; its amazing ;) Gives me the feeling i have my own holodeck.

So I tried the Arma2 Demo, and the Graphics were disapointing, it looked like it was unfinished. I'm not seeing any fixes for the problems I am having with the demo, and of course I can't go buy the full product if the demo is not functioning on my system; :(

Probably depends on your settings. With my GTX 285 the graphics are fantastic. Well on crysis levels.

Also, to fix your problems you probably want to run it with the -winxp flag appended to the launching shortcut. That will probably fix your issues.
