Does anyone out there have a good way to provide a really quick 3D Vision enable/disable button?
Now that I have a lightboost monitor I find when I go to play something in 2D (say DOTA2) the lightboost kicks in and washes out the picture compared to leaving the monitor in a standard picture mode. As a result I have been turning 3Dvision on and off in the control panel depending on the game I play.
Though it's not all that many clicks it would be nice to have a desktop level menu setting or perhaps a tray icon to flip this in one click.
Are there registry flags or windows services that correspond to the official enable/disable button?

Mine are also in my start menu programs folder, which pin to my start menu and make shortcuts in a quick launch folder in the taskbar. I can't stand icons covering a beautiful desktop background.

I am running Windows 8 and am having a very difficult time finish the toggle for on/off 3D vision. How do I easy add this? I am also unable to turn it on and off and am also getting a washed out image. Thanks!

Use this in a .reg file. It's more convenient than constantly using the main off/on toggle icons:

Hi Shinra,
Thank you for the advice. I am unsure of what you mean.
My intention is to be able to turn 3D on and off depending on what game I am running. For example I would like to turn off 3D while playing Starcraft and not have the image be all washed out due to lightboost. Then I would like to turn it on while playing Tomb Raider or Crysis 3. In windows 7 I simply double clicked on the on or off icon that I put on my task bar before launching the game. Now I cannot seem to find the on/off switch.
I have tried searching for the toggle icons in windows explore and the /nvidia folder but I am at a loss. I also cant find it in the programs list like they were in Windows 7.
I appreciate the help and suggestions.
Dan.

Yea Ctrl T keeps Lightboost on, nothing you can do about that.
The icons should be somewhere in some Nvidia folder, the icons for them are anaglyph glasses. I'll see if I can find them.

Hey, with this you will be able to play 3D vision set to on in the control panel and the 3D wont start up automatically. That way is easier without having to always toggle something before you start your game. Then all you will have to do is press ctrl+t only like all the users said before me.

Sorry, wasn't aware of that. There's the shortcuts to enable/disable in the start menu.
You could save this as 3DPrompt.bat and run it:
[quote]@ECHO OFF
ECHO.
:ASK
set /p answer=[E]NABLE or [D]ISABLE 3D VISION?
if /i "%answer%"=="E" GOTO ENABLE3D
if /i "%answer%"=="D" GOTO DISABLE3D
GOTO ASK
:ENABLE3D
"C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\3D Vision\nvstlink.exe" /enable
GOTO END
:DISABLE3D
"C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\3D Vision\nvstlink.exe" /disable
GOTO END
:END EXIT[/quote]Or these as Enable3D.bat
[quote]"C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\3D Vision\nvstlink.exe" /enable[/quote]and Disable3D.bat
[quote]"C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\3D Vision\nvstlink.exe" /disable[/quote]For that matter you could create a bat file that disables 3D, runs the game and then enables 3D when the game exits ...

Were you able to find them on Windows 8?
type enable 3D vision or disable 3D vision in your start menu.
@TsaebehT: they have those 'bats' included already now as shortcuts in the start menu.
edit: oops, you said windows 8 xD
