How can I run Test Drive Unlimited in stereoscopy?
I'd like to play Test Drive Unlimited in stereoscopy. I've been told that I need to deactivate post-processing in order to make it work correctly. I tried to understand which parameters, in the various .ini files, allow me to do that, but the problem is... there are lots and lots of parameters. I don't know which to modify and what values I need to put in the place of the already existing values!
Is anyone expert enough about tweaking the game to tell me how to do?

Try to disable HDR and Bloomingshader, these are the most common postprocessing effects, also lensflare and motionblur are rendered in a postprocess. Try also to setup lowest shader version possible and for a last try disable Hardware T&L.
I remember it has worked for me without magnificant changes (open beta) at least not too bad /blarg.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':/' />

Uhm, do you mean modifying some game options, some parameters in an .ini file, or some video card settings?

These are, in most cases, ingame options. I remember that at least hdr is an ingame option in tdu.

I just checked. HDR is off, radial blur is at the minimum setting, antialiasing is off (but I can still see some kind of blur around the palm leaves). And the scene is still rendered to a single plane.

Try press ingame STRG+F7 to save Registry Entry for TDU

after go to regedit

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D\GameConfigs\ - "Gamtitle /TDU whatever"]

Try this Dword Entry for Postprocessing Problems

"StereoTextureEnable"=dword:00000001

It works for me in the most of Games with Postprocessing

Neither of these methods worked. Both resulted in the game running incredibly slow (less than 1 fps), the light effects on the car getting all screwed up (like a rainbow on the car), and no stereoscopy at all (just ONE flat image, not even TWO identical flat images like before).
