Bulletstorm 3D problems
  1 / 2    
Hi there,

i have a few problems mainly related to the 3D Vision performance with Bulletstorm.
First of all my System (its not the best):

Windows 7 64bit
Intel Quad Core 2,4 GHz
4GB DDR Ram
GeForce 8800 GTX
Driver Version. 270.61

My 3D Vision works flawlessly with Call of Duty 2 and Batman Arkham Asylum (the only ones i tested yet), but it kinda crashes with Bulletstorm.
As i first opened the game the 3D effect was there right away but with bad graphic glitches and flimmering in the start menu. I could get working with some .ini editing and played 10 minutes or something.
After that i disabled 3D Vision to play another game (with no Profile). Afterwards i wanted to start Bulletstorm again, so i activated the 3D Vision. But as i started the game there where no 3D effect.
When i turn off the 3D Vision and start the game its working without any glitches and ghosting, but if i start it with 3D Vision its kinda crappy. The graphic seems so hop and i can partly see thru walls, so i guess its a 3D Vision problem there.
What i noticed aswell is that if i change the "Postprocess Quality" to medium the 3D effect wears off and i cant get it back again. I had to reinstall my drivers to get it working again.
Maybe you my Graphic Card is just to bad - but without 3D Vision it works kinda smooth, so i guess maybe some tweaking could help.

Thanks for any help

PS: If you dont understand anything please ask again - my english isnt perfect, im from germany.

i am able to play every other game in 3D with high configurations
but with Bulletstorm i get very annoying glitches and shadows r really seems like ther is another person next to characters

Yup...i got the feeling that the problem with "another person" being there hast something to do with the reflections.

BulletStorm works perfectly for me with 270.61. I would question the ability of your card since it is old. Try these steps to isolate the prob.:
1. Try alternate 3D drivers, either iZ3D or TriDef, both have a free D/L so it will cost you nothing. Be sure that only one driver is enabled (nvidia or alternate), not both at the same time.
2. Go back to a previous retore point under win 7 system protection, system restore, test again
3. Install BulletStorm on a different partition, or better, do a clean OS install and try again.

I need some assistance with the drivers. I dont quite get what the difference is and how i can run both simultaneously. I have taken a look at the iZ3D Page and before i can download the Driver i need to select my Output device. Which one do i have to choose with my 2233RZ 120Hz?
Thanks in advance

On the iZ3D page, choose any device that allows you to progress to the download button. After you do the install, you can choose your output device. You specifically don't want to run Nvidia and iZ3D drivers simultaneously, so make sure either the nvidia drivers or the iZ3D drivers are disabled when you test.
I'm not familiar with 3D Vision as how it relates to computer monitors, but my guess is "120 Hz 3D Devices".
During the installation process, you'll get to a screen that allows you to do 'full' or 'custom' set up, choose custom. After install finishes, go to the iZ3D control center, DirectX tab, 'Output' pull down. There you will see your choices including "120 Hz 3D Devices".
'Full' install is the default so if you suspect that you skipped over the 'custom' option, reinstall the iZ3D from scratch.

No, do not uninstall drivers.
Disabled means the 'enable stereo 3D' checkbox under 'nvidia controlpanel> Stereo 3D > setup Stereo 3D' is unchecked, be sure to hit 'apply' to see the box unchecked.

Under iZ3D, bring up the iZ3D Control Center box and click DirectX tab. Under 'Stereo Status' you'll see 'disable stereo' button. click 'apply' after choosing 'disable'.

Install both Nvidia drivers and iZ3D drivers. To test 3D game under Nvidia drivers, make sure nvidia is enabled and iZ3D drivers are disabled.

I tried it, but when i start the game, the IR Emitter does not send any signals and so i can not activate my glasses. What am i doing wrong?

What steps have you taken? Did you try the iZ3D drivers? Did you try a previous win 7 restore point?

Hey,

i have tried the iz3D driver. I have disabled the 3D Vision Driver and enabled the iz3D only, as you said (i have chosen the 120Hz 3D Device). I couldnt start the Display Setup, because it says , that my Display is not supported. But when i start Bulletstorm it lags like hell (1 Frame per Second or something) and iz3D tries to enter the setup. But because it lags so hard i cannot do anything.. Maybe my graphic card is just too bad for Bulletstorm, although i can play Crysis 2 and Batman Alkham Asylum in kinda high configurations.
