fire up the game to see what it's like now. in 3D surround, 3D effect looks decent, shadow and light in wrong depth; shadow is more annoying than light. need to turn shadow quality to the highest and so shadow would look softer.
never like motion blur and this game has it every mouse turn, somehow the blur is more noticeable in 3D than in 2D.
and I remember why I didn't finish the game (was playing in 2D surround back then)...very poor keyboard control, very little variety in terms of enemy types and combat system (shift, shift..., right, middle, left mouse...that's it).

I actually bought it on a sale like a week or two ago, and it oddly said DX9. I could of sworn they made a huge fuss over DX11 and crazy features. I did a quick google and got SO MUCH mixed results from actual owners [Which goes to show how little dx9/11 actually means in most games].

yeah, but back then it was more about Windows Vista exclusive than dx10/11 features; since Vista is ancient history now, guess the dev/publisher just put back or add dx9 support?

Microsoft game publishers logo on the box kind of makes sense now...
the bright minds who brought you Fable 1 + Fable 3 [Scratch 2.. Performance in 3 is crap tastic]
Halo 1/2 [None of the other titles, halo 2 is DX10 exclusive]
Gears of War 1 [Just one]
And making all of its developers use Games for windows....mmmmmmmmmm

Halo 2 was a Vista exclusive title by release. as memory goes, there was a XP hack; as for how the vista exclusivity was achieved technically...I didn't care then and don't care now though:)

I always asssumed Halo 2 was DX10 api[hence vista] just with nothing DX10. Sorta like RE5 how it was dx10 and had literally no features. I thought they only got it to work on Windows xp because they left dx9 code but didnt actually use it.
The xp/windows 7 directions are like a mile long regardless so I am not looking to dance with that devil.

hey guys i also bought this game on sale...but i cannot adjust convergence!! i tried to map increase to + key and pressed it down like 2 minutes but nothing changed...would someone mind posting his convergence value from nvidia inspector alan wake profile so i can adjust it manually in my profile as well ? (i usually like character to be right at screen depth) thanks in advance!!

TBH, I think you are gonna be dissapointed about the game in 3D. I think at one point it was rated good but then they wised up and made it not recommended. You can probably skirt by on low depth.
I tried to play it but Im not sure if its atmosphere or what I found it boring all together.

I've said this before, but i stopped playing in 3D near the beginning due to so many visible problems. Played halfway through in 2D, almost quit, then loaded up 3D again....blown away... Glad i did because there wasn't anything majorly wrong with it...at least from there on that i remember. You might switch it on and off in the beginning depending on the severity of issues your encountering.

Okay call me crazy guys. I bought the Alan Wake deal the other day on steam for 3 bucks. I really liked the atmosphere of the game and thought maybe down the road it would end up being fixed. Regardless for 3 bucks I wanted it in my collection.
Anyway, just installed it from scratch and playing with all effects maxed and it is Perfect 3d so far.
All the shadows, lights, godrays, fog, etc are perfect? I cant believe it?
They must have fixed it sometime somehow, I don't know.
I am playing on 3dtv Play Nvidia 590 with latest driver 320.18 btw and getting 75 fps 720p projector. The profile still says not recommended, but I tell you its near perfect!
Someone check it out I think you will be as shocked as me.
So far I am half way through episode 1, only like 30 minutes, but everything is perfect??? Everything that was broken!!!
Let me know if you guys have similar results!!!
Cheers!!! Back to playing!!!! :)

I own legit steam version its rated not recommended and I got a lot of 2d effects lighting effects. But I doubt it matters pictures on 3d vision live are same as mine.

I hope this isnt one of those wierd SLI/NON SLI Games. [It does happen Blades of time/ Devil May Cry 4 have it happen off the top of my head] Libertine's response makes me wonder.
Or something based on settings. AA/ Post Processing/whatever. [Lots of games in this category]

I know what you mean about the sli/non issue. Reason Im getting ready to invest in a single Titan. That and my 590 wont run Tri Def in dual gpu/sli mode and seems Im needing that more and more to fill in the gaps with my 3d gaming. But my settings on this are just in standard Multi gpu/sli mode and Standard sli bits in nspector.
Just made it through the woods and off the river boat and no issues yet.
Will check out your screenies and let you know if I am getting different results.
