Hi, I am trying to use ddd drivers (I have just purchased them) with the AVATAR game. I don't know why, but the native stereoscopic 3D visualization is awful on my Zalman Trimon monitor, so I am trying to use ddd drivers (half life 2 looks very good on my monitor with ddd drivers...). There is not a profile for the AVATAR game on ddd drivers, so I am using the half-life 2 profile, and I added the game manually. But when I launch the game, it does not work in stereo-3D mode, just 2D. Why is that? Please, give me a hand...I see you guys

What is wrong with the native visualization?
You might have to reverse the images in the Avatar S-3D profile. Make sure there aren't any S-3D drivers on or active.
Regards, Neil

Regards, Neil I tried native stereo visualization as soon as it came out, with all settings (intelaced, 22", distance from monitor) and it worked really bad, headache inducing (3D intensity: 1...so that's not the reason). Before of that, I had tried the demo, and it didn't work at all (two images, but not 3D). I have just tried again in native stereo-3D and it is finally working (I wonder why it didn't work before...)! But: - the cut scenes still look terrible...I mean, they are a complete mess! While the stereo-3D mode, while playing, is most of the time really really excellent and immersive....even with the lowest details I had to set. I am using one of the latest macboock pro with windows 7 64 bit on bootcamp and a Zalman Trimon monitor via vga cable. Because of the cut-scenes, I still would like to use the ddd drivers I just bought, to see how that turns out. I have just ordered an xbox 360 version of AVATAR: the game, too...because my parents finally decided to buy a small notebook instead of a desktop because of room and mobility reason...and my xbox 360 plays better than my macbook (and I will finally be able to see how the cut-scenes turn out to be on the console). Thank you Neil

I don't think you can use 3rd-Party drivers with Avatar.

Ok. I think it is a bug with the interlaced output because the 22" result is terrible.
Increase the screen size to default. I think it is 50". Just go with default screen size settings. Then things will look good.
Regards, Neil

I guess there has been some kind of agreement within Ubisoft and Nvidia, since 120 Hz monitors were the only ones not supported in the native stereo-3D settings...that might be the reason...

Regards, Neil Thank you very much!!! It is now regularly working! And it is amazing!

I don't know what is going on with your computer (or your eyes), koshien, but the Avatar implementation for the Zalman monitor is flawless. I have played through the game twice, and I can assure you the 3D effect is second to none and there is nothing wrong with the cutscenes. You can try these settings, which worked great for me:
3D Intensity: 2.0 Use Imperial Units: On Screen Size: 8 inches Distance to Screen: 6 feet

I agree! You can definitely loose yourself in the athmosphere of Pandora (double meaning for rda's.  ).
