Amnesia:Dark Descent It's on sale in Steam
  1 / 2    
I searched around and found a couple of threads about it (those posts are dead now). Has anyone gotten this game to work in 3D. Probably not because it's OpenGL but it's on sale in Steam for 9.99 and it's got really good reviews. I tried the demo and it was creepy but did not work in 3D. Maybe somebody figured out a fix for it?

I haven't bought it yet. Should I buy it even though there is no 3D joy to be had.

apparently its open gl so no 3d, though someone said he could use 3d some time ago but never proved it

I couldn't get this game to work either using the old Nvidia stereo method . I think the OpenGL engine it uses is a little too new for the Nvidia driver I use for my 7900 GTX SLI system (Nvidia graphics and stereo driver 91.47). Penumbra works good, but this one crashes right on start up. Darn was hoping to enjoy this one in 3D.

Having said that though...this is a very good game. It's up for IGN's game of the year for the PC and playing it now I can definitely see WHY.

Weird, I cannot import the Amnesia profile nip from Helifax fix? Any idea why? I get a XML 2,5 error.

Ah okay. I linked the Decent exe to the Pigs profile. But the game does not start in 3D, only in side-to-side mode. Let's wait for Helifax. ;)

I just double checked the game. The wrapper works correctly even on Windows 10. Are you using the version from here:http://3dsurroundgaming.com/OpenGL3DVisionGames.html ? Copy all the files from "3DVisionFix" next to Amnesia.exe. Launch Amnesia.exe as Admin at least one time. 3D Vision should kick in and work perfectly fine.
