MonitorSizeOverride; The Only DepthHack You'll Ever Need...

[quote="SnickerSnack"][quote="TsaebehT"] [quote="SnickerSnack"]Hi guys, just checking, does this work for Compatibility Mode, or real 3D only? Thanks[/quote]No, sorry... I've tried tons of things to find something that would work. Honestly I'd suggest looking into using [url=https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/959175/]SuperDepth3D[/url] instead... it's so much more robust than CompatibilityMode.[/quote] I read a little of the SuperDepth thread, but it only works through 3DTV Play, right? It isn't a solution for my 27" monitor, right? I've never used my Plasma for gaming much due to input lag. I'm just more comfortable with the 27" ASUS. [/quote] No 3DTV play is not required or 3D Vision but to use it you need a 3D TV or projector that supports SBS, TNB, or Line Interlaced.

I think my Samsung Plasma supports at least two of those, but it's packed away as we are in-between permanent living arrangements at the moment. I'm currently only using my 27" monitor. As I mentioned, the input lag on the plasma is noticeable, so Super Depth would have to blow me away to make it worth the irritation of the input lag. But I'll give it a shot once we get settled and I can mount my TV on a wall again...

[quote="TsaebehT"]@EGY-SuperOne No need to be sorry, I should be apologizing. I rewrote the end of that section to clarify it a bit more... originally I was referring to actual screen/monitor size(1/2 = 200%) but typed MonitorSize(1/2 = 100%) so that's where the confusion originally came from. I was meaning to reply to your post last night but I got side-tracked sorry about that. Unfortunately when referring to MonitorSize, it's not always correct in the Registry so it makes it harder when discussing it... not everyone's 100% is equal as it probably would/should be if it were. So there's 2 main uses for this: 1) To correct for an incorrect MonitorSize Value in the Registry. 2) To go 'beyond' the 100% Depth limit. Also some games have very shallow/limited range that we might want to push a but further... I remember one that just barely looked like it was in 3D until I pushed MonitorSize down into the single digits([url=https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/700536/]link[/url]) for just those types of issues I'd suggest just running a DepthHack script prior to the game because MonitorSizeOverride is always on until it's deleted. I could make a script to delete MonitorSizeOverride in the Registry I guess, if anyone's interested...[/quote] Thank you very much TsaebehT.

According to post 16 (sorry, can't quote or edit posts, not sure what's wrong) it says we only need to set this once now... Before I had to either open the game, alt-tab, go to registery and edit the moniter size option, or I had this batch file that I opened up before opening a game...So according to post 16, none of these methods are needed anymore and all we gotta do is change the monitor size one time and it'll stay like from game to game, restart to restart? :)

Yup, that's it... pretty sure the only thing that'll reset/delete it is a Driver Install, just remember that the MonitorSizeOverride Value isn't doubled like it was with MonitorSize. So if you were using a MonitorSize of 48 before it's equal to a MonitorSizeOverride of 24 now.

YES! But only when you use "MonitorSizeOverride" in the registry. You have to create it! See First post!
