is it possible to watch anaglyph videos in vr920 glasses?

Iz3d driver works?

Centurion — Fri, 26 Dec 2008 13:28:05 GMT

I tried download iz3d driver that says it support vr920 in beta. For some reason it gives error "can't load output dll" for any type, except anaglyph.
First i thinked it's because i'm running 64bit xp, but i tried it on 32bit xp, and same result.

Any idea? Anyone tried that?

Seperation on VR920

Illuminator — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 18:56:41 GMT

Hi Folks,

just got my pair of glasses a few days ago and every game I played had too much/ too little seperation.
How can I change that?
I know theres ought to be a menu in-game but the only game that had a menu after pressing shift+F8 was
Flight Simulator X.
In other games I just cant change anything except turning stereoscopic on and off.
My used OS is Windows 7 Beta 1 build 7000

Thanks.

How to make VR920 SDK work with Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and XNA 3.0

Jakob — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 11:09:12 GMT

When you try to use the SDK (vr920_xna_stereoscopy) with VS2008 & XNA 3.0 you get an error during VS conversion wizard and it will crash if you try to run it after you fix the upgrade issue

It is not an error in the SDK , I believe it is caused by Microsoft having changed the way XNA 3.0 handles loading of FBX files: http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnhar/archive/2008/09/18/fbx-improvements-in-xna-game-studio-3-0.aspx

Luckily there is a quite easy fix to make the SDK work. It may not look as good as intended originally (textures seems to be missing) but the Vuzix Stuff works well enough, so you can use it to understand what to do yourself. After I got this problem solved I was able to make my own code work really well with nice textures and all in a couple of hours

Steps to fix:
· When you run VS2008 upgrade wizard it fails to convert the ShatterEffectWindows project
· Just right-click “ShatterEffect” project in solution and remove it.
· Go to the ShatterEffect folder and rename the folder “ShatterEffect” to e.g. ShatterEffect_old
· Add new Windows Game (3.0 ) to the solution called ShatterEffect, delete the default Game1.cs created & program.cs
· Copy ShatterEffectGame.cs, /content/*.fbx and /content/*.tga from ShatterEffect_old to the same location in the newly created project
· By using “add existing item” add ShatterEffectGame.cs & the content files to the correct folders in the newly created project
· Change project properties (application tab) so that startup object=ShatterSample.Program
· Right-click ShatterEffect project in solution explorer and “set it as startup program”
· You should now be able to do a clean compile
· If you run the program it will however freeze up due to a crash in the SetupEffect method
· What happens is that it fails on trying to access the parameters effects in the fbx file, probably due to a Microsoft change in the FBX loader
· If you want to debug the error you have to disable full-screen, then it does not crash but breaks at correct error in debugger

A quick fix for this just to get the SDK working is to insert the following code at the end of the LoadContent method in ShatterEffectGame class

//HACK: Load effect into model after FBX file is loaded to get around XNA 3.0 change in FBX loader
Effect loadEffect = Content.Load<Effect>("ShatterEffect");
foreach (ModelMesh mesh in model.Meshes){
foreach (ModelMeshPart part in mesh.MeshParts){
part.Effect = loadEffect;
}
}

As mentioned textures does not seem to load properly but at least you can use the SDK and learn the code for getting the VR920 working in 3D

Above tested on VS2008 SP1 + Win XP + XNA 3.0, all fully patched u

Happy Coding :cool:

Nvidia Stereo Drivers Guides

legsmo — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 15:24:19 GMT

Hi, I'm a new VR920 owner and have got to say I'm very impressed, I was using shutter glasses for quite some time for 3d until nvidia packed in their stereo drivers. My apologies if this information has been posted before but I've seen a few posts asking about the nvidia stereo drivers and thought I'd share a couple of links.

This first link [url=http://www.3d.wep.dk/driverguide.html]here[/url] is an excellent guide on installing the drivers and getting them working, it has the 91.31 drivers that Nvidia still list on their site, but also has the lesser known 162.50 drivers these were released just before nvidia droped all support in favour of zalman displays, they are beta's but I have used them fine, they have a far better game support list and were also supposed to add geforce 8 series support (i've not tested that part personally as I have a pair of 7900's in sli that work fine)

The next link [url=http://www.stereo3d.com/nvidia.htm]here[/url] is an old link from stereo3d.com but it is an excellent guide into how the nvidia drivers work and how you can configure them yourself and is well worth a read. Unfortunatly the link towards the bottom of the page for the nvidia stereo profile editor has long since died this was a cool tool to save game profiles and allow people to share them you can see the page as it was on the web archive [url=http://web.archive.org/web/20071214014923/http://www.gsoftware.se/stereo/]here[/url] the profiles I'm sure are long gone but if anyone knows where to get a copy of the app please post up the link.

If I think of any other links or info I'll add it on to this post.

How to play the movies you get from Vuzix ?

Zede — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 11:40:41 GMT

Good Day

I just got my VR920, installed on XP SP2, I have an ATI Radeon X800pro GT GFX card, using direct x 9c.

So far ive only tried WoW with the glasses, 3d with Vuzix drivers works, though head tracking wont let me look up or down at the moment.

Ok I bought the software titles from Vuzix when I ordered my eyewear.

Haunted Castle, SoS planet, Ultimate Gs, Alien Adventure & Encounters in the 3rd Dimension.

Ive got windows media player, power DVD, nero media players & just installed "steroscopic" media player by some guy called Peter Wimmer.

Insert DvD, lets say Haunted Castle, play in windows media player, title screen comes up, see the option " 2d or 3d" click 3d option, movie starts, but all i can still see the left & right images on the screen, ie. not steroscopically combined ! - no 3d effect.

Can anyone advise what I am doing wrong ?

is it something as obvious as " you need the nvidia drivers"....

any help appreciated

VR920 Stereo config tweaks! (Guild Wars)

Tweldenza — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 06:21:17 GMT

Hi guys!
I was trying to mess about with the config file for CoD4 to make it work for guild wars and need some help! :D
It works quite well...the only things disturbing are the character selection after the login window, the skillbar and the radar. My theory is that they are 2D and have only 2 virtual axes, but are treated like a 3D generated object. They have no depth and so they're not turned in a circle but just moved along the vertical axis by the stereoscopy config.
Maybe my explanation is just shit...but my reason for this way of thinking is the fact, that all other menues, like the inventory or the option menus etc work properly...
Someone got an idea how to fix that? Maybe change the graphical attributes of the skillbar etc in the program itself?

Can't play 3d movies or play 3d games :(

MWorks — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 14:29:47 GMT

Hi there, well here's my problem... I've just bought a vr920, it works perfect as my primary screen and to watch movies; but when I try to play my games (Half Life 2, Counter Strike: Source and Second Life) it doesn't work as I expect... I can't see anything but the usual screen in 2d. I've follow all the instructions about the IWear Monitor, but When I try to "Add" my games it doesn't work, I have a different problem for each one, as follows:

Counter strike source, STATUS: Not installed on this system.

When I try to Add it, it says:

STATUS: Installation...Failed to Copy a Critical file...

In second life says:

STATUS: Installation...Unsupported version installed for this extension...

In second life I guess the solution is as simple as installing the version required. But I want to play Counter Strike That's why I bought my vr920!:D.

Also I've just downloaded the stereoscopic player and some small movies along with it, but I can't whatch the movies in 3d, I have followed the instructions placed in another post but can't make it work.

BTW, my machine specs are here: http://www.tabletpcreview.com/price/product.asp?productFamilyID=722&productID=

I'm a linux user... it's not confortable to change to xp or vista but I'm trying to use all the vr920 features... hihihi ;) I would love to have linux compatibility.. I'll work on it.
I'm sorry about my english.
EDITED. IM IN WINDOWS XP BTW.

Thx for you answers.

Installing the VR920 into Windows Vista

Flyboy629 — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 02:36:49 GMT

Is anybody else having as much trouble getting things going with this product and Windows Vista? I can't get past the part in the instructions that says to open up the iWear Monitor software! When I double click on that icon on my desktop, instantly I get some sort of windows security warning and I can't even tell what it is warning me about cuz that box is blank and my computer freezes up on me and the only way to get things going again is just to reboot my machine!

Any of this sound familiar to anybody else? Anybody have any suggestions? lol for the relatively computer illiterate, step by step instructions on some sort of fix would really be appreciated! By the way, I THINK...... I have managed to get the latest driver stuff in, the stereo...whatever it is...! I know there's a new driver for Vista in the works that will activate the 3D options and I can't wait for that, but at this point first things first, right??? ;-)

F.E.A.R. Does not load...

Partechie — Sat, 27 Dec 2008 14:09:15 GMT

Odd thing, I have tried the Vuzix drivers with FEAR 1.08 (I do not have directors cut..??) and it won't load, crashes to desktop before the first splash screen (Goes black like it's gonna work then drops back to desktop with APPCRASH error)...

So I tried the Iz3D (Which work for EVERYTHING I have tried so far, same thing, I manually went in and changed the CFG file to 800x600 24bit thinking maybe it was loading too high (can't manually select from in game those resolutions) and same issue..

So I tried to just run the game no 3d drivers at all, same issue..HOWEVER all these settings load up and work on my main monitor (which I do disable when using the VR920)..

Any thoughts on what to tweak to get it to load??

VR920 SDK FOR XNA?

JeffNik — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 02:58:54 GMT

Ok. I got the VR920 working nicely in my own 3d programs in VS/C++.

Now XNA 3.0 is out and Im finding C# much easier to work in. Is there a plan for an XNA library to add support for the VR920? Im interested mainly in the stereo 3D more than the tracking, but both would be nice.

Alternatively - shouldnt I be able to make an unmanaged DLL with the VR920 SDK in C++ and consume it in managed C#/XNA as long as my games are targeted for Windows, not the Xbox?

SDK doesn't work for latest bios?

dvnelson72 — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 12:36:08 GMT

I installed the latest BIOS update. The SDK setLR function does not appear to be working with this update.

I tried some of the example projects to verify, and I get the same problem. It's like the device is assuming every other frame is left or right instead of using the SDK function.

I'm using the latest SDK download. I've tried loading the methods dynamically from DLL and using the static libs. The results are the same.

First-person shooters with 3D... advice on aiming?

chicagonobel — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 16:51:42 GMT

Hey all,

I playing the "Insurgency" mod on Steam, and was pleasantly surprised by the 3d. However, I noticed that aiming becomes a real problem. When you set the "scope" on, neither of your eyes are right above the aim... so if you look with your left eye evertyhing you shoot will seem to drift right, and vice-versa for the other eye; if you keep them both open, the gun is blurry. So, generally, anyone have good advice as to how to play shooters using 3D and not losing accuracy? Preferably, anyone know how you can get the sights to line-up correctly?

stereo separation

Hello, sorry to all my English.
They are the new forum, some of you know tell me if there is the possibility to adjust the stereo separation on vr 920 with FSX because I see the effect 3d almost split and I meet his eyes.
Thank you all for your help.

Vuzix 3D driver problem

Decoril — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 18:58:49 GMT

Hello i´m back; ive just received my new vr920 with the latest firmware upgrades and the vuzix 3D driver, my old icuiti vr920 went bricked with the first firmware upgrade and this is the first time im able to use the vuzix 3D. The thing is that for example the 3d works well with the two sample games that comes with the driver disc and are native 3D but when using the vuzix 3d in games from the vuzix monitor like TF2, Dystopia or HL2 i have only tryed this games so far, it goes 3d and it is very good but only while there is nothing moving in the screen, if y move the mouse or something moves through the screen the 3d effect breaks until everything is still again, it is a weird sensation for the eyes and totally unusable; i have tried with and without Vsynch and postprocessings but it still the same.

What i am doing wrong? I have Nvidia 7600GT and latest drivers 175 or so; please help, i have a lan party tomorrow and i whould prefer not having to go with my heavy 19' CRT.
Thank you very much

Understanding the VR920Dx9Stereo.cfg file

Xeno — Sun, 03 Aug 2008 11:14:30 GMT

Can anyone comment on the elements of said config file, please? I could not find a documentation, so I started this thread (in case I only missed it, admin plz feel free to move my post to wherever it fits).

So far I figured out that
[b]IPD_View=8.40 and IPD_Menu=0.050[/b] influence stereo width
whereas [b]LogFile=1[/b] is self-explanatory, but how do the other ones influence the image?

[b]Method=1 - 7
Manual_VSync=0
Locking=0
QueryGPU=1
AutoIPD=1
ExpMax=0.11, ExpRate=0.001, ExpPoint=2.0[/b]

How does the stereo opperate?

Spedley — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 15:41:39 GMT

Sorry if this has been asked before but do the VR920 glasses just send alternate frames after a vsync to each eye?
i.e. frame 1 goes to left eye, frame 2 to right eye, frame 3 to left eye?

If so, does this mean the two screens run at 30fps or can they cope with 60fps each (i.e. a total of 120Hz refresh rate)?

Playing Crysis w/ the VR920

cybereality — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 23:09:20 GMT

Ok, if you have a VR920 and want to play Crysis to the max, this is how to do it. This will make Crysis look more real, improve framerates and also fix the glitch with the water. It will bring Crysis to near Very High levels (minus some DX10 effects that aren't really supported anyway). With my current rig (see sig) I am getting a pretty smooth 40 FPS average in vuzix-stereo 3D w/ VR920 @ 1024 x768!!!! At 800 x 600 it is very possible to reach 60 FPS+ with this mod.

You can download it here:
[url=http://www.crysis-online.com/forum/index.php/topic,20630.0.html]http://www.crysis-online.com/forum/index.php/topic,20630.0.html[/url]

I didn't make this. I just found it on another forum, this is the best mod for Crysis that I know of. The game will look better and play smoother. It comes with its own installer, it is very simple to setup. I installed it to "Level 4" which is recommended for 8800 GT or better. Tested in Vista, but it should work fine in XP as well. If you are on Vista make sure to right-click and do "Play in DirectX9" when you launch the game. If you have an older card, it may make Crysis at least playable. Hope you guys enjoy.

not able to install driver

stargazer — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 11:19:21 GMT

Hi,

I try to install the drivers for the VR920 at my laptop but got a message "no hardware files found at this location"

The hardwarefiles are at the CD rom so why the files are "missing"?

my equipment: toshiba satelite laptop, 2 GB Ram.

when i install at two other different laptops,no problem, a blue screen and calibrator is working. (the other laptops are small and no games are installed because of speed and the small HD).

I run out of options so help me please!

thanks in advance, Henk

Vista drivers work?

Centurion — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 08:17:59 GMT

I read some forums that lastest nvidia drivers: forceware 174.75, with 174.76 stereo doesn't give page flipping mode required for glasses to work. Ppl says it's zalman monitor only, and red-blue anaglyph.

Anyone tried that, does it work? Should i set vista or wait for fresh drivers release?

Found a way to get Stereo3D work on Geforce 8800GTX!

VadersApp — Sun, 17 Feb 2008 04:54:13 GMT

As posted yesterday night at MTBS3D.

Since the site is down at the moment, i didnt get much response yet if it works for you too.

What i have done is:

installed nvidia 171.23 beta.
installed stereo driver 162.50
installed nhancer

enhancer config:

set global configuration to use supersampling aa 4x4, enhance game aa, aa compatibilty to oblivion. ensure that vsync is forced allways on.

The funny part is, that you have to run medical image test first after you bootet up windows, before starting any D3D game. Every game i tested worked like with my 7800gtx.

Besure that no special profile is active for your favourite game. If so, set the profile config to that of the global one, as described above.

Its on windows XP32 and also works with multicore on 8800GTX

Tested with:

Oblivion (doimagespaceeffects=0 for real depth)
SWG (dont use bloom for real depth)
Portal (have to configure it to use minimum quality. I think its a post processing problem)
ATI Treasure Demo (perfect)
My favourite 64k demo:Farbrausch .das produkt (perfect)
FSX (perfect and amazing with VR920 and TrackIR)
LFS (perfect and amazing with VR920 and TrackIR)

Nvidia Stereo 3D (red/cyan)

thomazn — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:05:18 GMT

Hi!
Really n00b question here:

Am i way off on this thing?
When starting call of duty 4 for instance...using nvidia stereo drivers, i get the old classic 3d-glasses view with cyan/red colors. This does nothing for me with the vr920.

Is there something i need to change to make the drivers work with the vr920s?

Also, when running the nvidia tests, it says:
"Only Anaglyph ALLOWED For This Monitor"

Not synchronized stereo

Mnemonic — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 08:12:41 GMT

A few days ago I purchased my VR920,have to admit -pretty cool device. At first I was skeptical on how it would be, but now I know that this HMD is really good!

I get familarized with GlovePIE software and made smooth tracking for X-axis, that's really cool!

And now I want to understand it's stereo possibilities, I have firmwarev1.110.103.13 and 2.1 vuzix software. In games I noticed following bugs:

1. In "IL-2 1946" I enable stereo, but it's bugging a bit, when I turn my head - some frames-for-right-eye goes on the left eye... When I stop moving my head - all goes ok, and I have right stereo

2. In LockOn I cannot start the stereomode on - it's began to flickering - stereo / no stereo / stereo / no stereo... like lagging ot something like that.

I use native stereo-support, I tryed to start a game with single-monitor solution, and etc. and it's all the same. I also check in videocard drivers - force vsync - nothing helps. I have G-Force 6600 video card.

In native "Axy"games - stereo looks fantastic without bugs.

Can anybody help me? Do I need to upgrade firmwareto v1.110.104.13 ?

P.S. I live in Ukraine so it's would be hard for me to ship my vr920 back if something goes wrong in my upgrade.

Field Sequential 3d on VR920??

Radioman — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 17:02:35 GMT

Hello all,

I have just ordered a VR920, and would like to know if it is possible to view field sequential 3d movies. I have made quite a few using a NUVIEW 3d adaptor for my camcorder. These look good with shutter glasses, but have a flickering effect, and of course you need to use a CRT monitor with shutter glasses. It would be great if I could view them on the VR920, each eye seperate, with no flickering.

I have done quite a few 3d 4wd DVD's, as well as trips along the beach at Australia's Heritage listed Fraser Island. It really puts you in the drivers seat, just like being there.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

In FSX...what does the eye seperation option do?

jektezak — Wed, 21 May 2008 00:40:43 GMT

Supported games with Ati VGA-card

Janklaasjan — Thu, 15 May 2008 06:04:07 GMT

Hello 3d-gamers,

I decided to buy some 3d-thing
But I'm doubting which I should buy: eDimensional or VR920

What I wanted to ask, what games can I play with the VR920 if I got a Radeon X1900XT? What games with 3d-vision, what games with headtracking, and what games with both?

Games I would like to play with it:
Battlefield 2
Call of Duty 4
Crysis
Rainbow Six Vegas (and other Rainbow Six')
Assassin's Creed
Trackmania: Sunrise
Colin McRae: DiRT
Portal
Unreal Tournament 3
Flatout 2
Need for Speed (Most Wanted, Carbon, Pro-Street)
Starcraft II
Civilization IV

With eDimensional I can play them all with 3d-vision according to some guy from eDimensional, but without headtracking
I don't bother to copy some files or that kind of stuff, but it do want it to work

Why is my FSX 3d lag scaling?

jektezak — Sat, 17 May 2008 20:59:22 GMT

For some reason now my vr920's 3d is lagging or scaling terribly with the head tracking. What can I do to stop that? Is there a new driver I need? I love this thing, but that scaling lag is really making me angry!!

FSX Lag in stereo.

DesH — Sun, 02 Mar 2008 19:17:49 GMT

Got FSX working fine with stereo and tracking etc after a couple of attempts. The first attempt I got tracking but no 3D and everything ran smooth.

Now I have native 3D working also however I'm getting pretty bad lag through my goggles, when I look at my monitor everything runs smooth but when I view through my goggles it jittery.

Is there anything I can do to either switch off the Stereo or to reduce / remove the jitter ?

Cheers

Des

P.S. Loving Glovepie by the way, excellent piece of software!

Native Stereo with SLI / CrossFire?

cybereality — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 08:51:32 GMT

Is there any chance that the Vuzix Stereo driver will work with SLI or Crossfire solutions? I am hoping to upgrade to SLI at some point and it would be nice to know if it was supported or not. I guess practically, a single card should be enough to run at 1024x768, but I'm curious to know it if works.

Expanding the 3D effect

I am not a techie but I do understand what makes 3D stereo work very well (I've actually drawn blue and red 3D pix that work!!). The stereo effect in IL2 works but outside the cockpit it looses much if not all the stereo effect. I know that what gives stereo it's depth - or lack there of - is the amount of separation between each viewpoint.

Again, I'm not a techie but is there someone who could write a simple step by step of how to simply set the side to side vantage points further apart to increase the stereo effect? Am I asking for the impossible?

Half Life 2

Hi,

I want to know if stereo native driver works with Half Life 2. I saw on other forum that it does, but they don't precise if they have 3D with native or NVidia drivers. So my question :

Does Half Life 2 (Ep1 + Ep2) works with native drivers ?

Thanks !

Question about last driver

(Sorry for my English, I'm French)

Hi,

I've just bought VR920 on the Edimensional Website. I have a Windows XP based PC with AMD Athlon XP 2000+ and ATI 9600 Pro. I bought this glasses after reading on an other forums that now, it's not obliged to have stereoscopic drivers from NVidia to have 3D effect but only native driver from Vuxiz.

I just want to now if it's true because I red the FAQ and there is no news about that. Can I expect VR920 work with my ATI based card ?

The other question is if the firware update is a risked operation, because I saw on your forum that some persons have broken VR920 after update and some person are obliged to repeat the upgrade operation a lot of time (is it normal ?). Is this problem fixed ?

Thanks a lot
Other question : how to use the stereoscopic effect on linux or Mac ? Will Developpement on the VR920 be on different OS ?
