Bioshock Infinite
  16 / 25    
When it comes to Bioshock Infinite, I experience constant crashes on launch - but if I persist, it eventually launches and stays solid. Sometimes takes 5 or 6 attempts. Be persistent.

Since either the last NVIDIA driver update or a patch to the game itself, if I have Fraps running then the game crashes on launch. I haven't had time to establish where the issue lies but if I close Fraps completely the game launches first time.

Fraps on, the game launches and runs just fine. And Of course I don’t have Tridef.

[quote="birthright"]Those pics look awesome DHR! I think I'll bite and finally give tridef a try, I have an hmz-t1 that apparently works with tridef since it has hdmi input and SBS, so I hope it works.[/quote] If you have SBS mode available....you're ready to go....if you need any help, let me know. I dont know if depth and focus setting are saved in the profile (i think not), but those screenshots are taken with those config (i play with this settings): depth = 100 (max) % in front = 10 Focus Scene - fix value = 96/100 (do not use autofocus) Focus Gun and Sky = disable (if you want to see the gun right, enable Gun focus, but you loose depth sense) Very rare about crashing....i load the game with fraps running and record the video i ulpload to youtube. Maybe this issue its better to post in the tridef forum. Past 24+ hours my post in Tridef forum appear, but in a previous page...LOL...what a lame forum (hope people can see the post + attached profile), and i thought this forum sucks... Yesterday i try to fix shadows, and indeed i manage to fix partially....there are two source that produce shadows in the game (same with lights), if i fix one source, the other its broken and viceversa...so better maintain disabled...i dont know its posible to fix this.

Just a few questions though, I've seen the guide here https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/537226/3d-vision/tridef-on-nvidia-guide-play-ac3-bioshock-probably-more-/ , and it doesn't mention what happens with your current 3d vision setup. Does tridef work with 3d vision active, do I have to uninstall 3d vision, or perhaps turn it off in the nvidia config? And to get it working back again?

@birthright, follow the next steps (i have 3DTV Play, but i think its the same thing to 3Dvision): 1) Disable 3D stereo in Nvidia Control Panel and Save. 2) Open tridef, in Control Panel select: Manufacturer = [b]Standar Display Types[/b] Model = [b]Side By Side[/b] [img]http://www.mtbs3d.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10002/dddsettings.jpg[/img] In "Advanced" tab dont touch anything. 3) In Tridef Ignition screen, add the .exe of the game and import my profile to it. Save. 4) Launch the game, now you can see two images (side by side) and info letters in the left bottom (Name Game, DX version, version of ignition, and the name of my profile) 5) In TV/Monitor menu select "Side By Side" mode 6) When you exit the game and before Power Off the PC, enable again the 3D stereo in NVCP (if you dont do that the next time you power ON the PC...Nvidia 3D its disabled by register key, you can enable again by changing registry)... stick a post it to remember :) Cheers!

I have fraps, but it doesn't cause problems. I can launch fine 100% of the time when Tridef is off. Also, having 3dvision on or off doesn't make a difference to my ability to use Tridef.

I recommend to disable Nvidia 3D.....happens to me that if i have enable Nvidia 3D and the game runs in 720p/60 (3DTV Play) both softwares kicks in, i see the SBS image in 3D...LOL.....and some games crashes....MMMMM maybe thats the reason some people have crashes when launching the game from Tridef, try disable 3D stereo from NVCP.

Does anyone know if you need to use SBS mode on DLP, ie. no checkerboard support for DX10/11? I have a Mitsubishi 3DA-1 3D Adapter so technically I should be able to use that with a SBS signal just haven't really even used that since my console 3D days.

Just got response to my support ticket, this is what they had to say: Unfortunately 3D Vision output mode is only supported for DX 9 games (not DX 10 or 11). Best regards, TriDef Support

Cool Rift D-Kit video: [url]http://www.pcgamer.com/2013/04/03/oculus-rift-team-fortress-2/[/url] But it's funny how the guy says OOOhh particle effects... He has obviously never played in 3D Vision.

Well I tried Tridef today with DHR config on my HMZ-T1 and it worked great with Bioshock Infinite, on par with anything on 3d vision, and performance is good. However my only problem is that textures are incredibly low res. I've tried your config posted before on xengine.ini that you mentioned, specifically: UseTextureFileCache=FALSE TexturePoolSizeReductionMB=500 PoolSize=2000 LowPCTexturePoolSizeMB=2000 And clicked on read only, but it does nothing, at least on the first few minutes of the game where I recieve a box contaning some stuff that look completely low res. Any idea wht am I doing wrong? I'm using 720p with SBS since HMZ-T1 only supports 1080p with 24hz. Also I see that ctrl+alt+f1 shows lots of shortcuts for depth and all, any suggestions about what to tweak? EDIT: Ok, I tried this from tridef forums: "Set the pool size to 5000 and the other two to 2500" and the low res textures were fixed, now I hope it doesn't crash too often. I'll check the game further today, but first impressions are quite good!
