Having issues with Arma 3 annd 3D TV Play Passive setup??
  1 / 2    
Hey Guys, I thought of asking here as I know a lot of knowledgable users here.. I have a Friend who I told how to get his 3D HDTV working in 3D.. He is using the Demo version of 3D TV Play for now to see if he likes it but is having issue With Arma3 by Bohemia.. I think he said it gets into a black screen and that is it I think it just freezes but it is not working.. We are not using any HelixMod fixes right now on Arma3 it just don't even start since we enabled 3D.. He had DCS World working and tried Armma 3 and it just goes to a black screen and I think it freezes.. Does anybody here play Arma 3 on a Passive system with 3D TV Play??

Why not use passive 1080p EDID override instead of 3DTV Play? See [url]http://afriendlyfox.com/2013/02/04/massively-improved-nvidia-3d-vision-on-passive-3dtvs-edid-override/[/url], for example. Use 3DVisionEye Swapper app, instead of hard-coded Registry mods suggested in link, however.

OK you still need to buy 3D TV Play.. but now we can not get the resolution set at 1920x1080 @ 60Hz?? Am I supposed to select interleave somewhere then set the resolution?

No need for 3DTV Play with appropriate EDID override - EDID automatically puts display in 1080p interlaced mode, 60 Hz.

OK thank you we almost got it just doing the registry entry to reverse the eyes.. Are there any 4K 3D Passive HDTV's this trick will work with??

All LG passive 4K 3D TVs work, with the best being OLED C6 and E6 models (2016 - last year LG made 3D TVs). You will need 1080Ti to drive some games, however. Search and find 3DVisionEye Swapper app to swap eyes - it works for all passive TVs, without manual Registry changes required.

Well I was more worried about Arma 3 still did not work.. I was wondering if having Battleeye on would affect Arma 3 not working..

If you gonna buy a 1080p 3DTV, buy a small one, don't go bigger than 42", 32" will be the best if you intend to play close to the TV. If you buy a 47" or higher you need to sit very far from the TV (3 meters and more) or you'll see FPR lines and pixels easily and this degrades immersion. For the black screen issue, anticheat protection can cause issues, also overlay software like MSI Afterburner, FRAPS, etc. can cause this issue. Other than that I have no idea. Even if the game has no 3DV fix or it has official 3D support, sometimes 3DMigoto can be used to force fullscreen, different resolutions, upscaling to solve this kind of black screen issues. Also different hooking methods of 3Dmigoto can be helpful too.

Will he still need to use 3D Migoto Fixes to solve the issues we 3D Vision users have?? Why would anticheat have an effect it does have Battleye anticheat software..

Yes. Probably Battleye is not the cause but it's a possibility, some protections are very aggressive and usually blocks 3Dmigoto and Tridef.

Well that is the thing he is not using Migoto or Tridef. just the fix that involves using his one INF file w he created.. I was hoping there could be another cause to why Arma3 did not work in 3D with a Passive setup.. he was using the trial period of 3D TV Play.. I am unsure what is causing his issue.. I was just wondering if he needed to use 3D Migoto as we 3D Vision users need too??

Does the setup program work? Maybe try another small game that is known to be supported, like maybe the Trine 2 demo, thats a quick download. EDIT: Don't recommend the Trine 1 demo, i'm getting a crash at startup when 3D is enabled. 2 is newer and is probably fine.
