Can anyone get any VR-chat program working in s3d?

I guess the problem is that they run in the web browser and so use Flash or Shockwave or whatever. Anyway, here's a link to some you can try if you want:

http://www.maidmarian.com/MOONBASE.htm

click on "Moon Base" and just choose a name for yourself. It seems like it's running in hardware mode but I can't get it to go 3d with iZ3d or TriDef even if I start the browser in the TriDef Launch window. Oh well, it's not that great anyway. Click the arrow on the bottom when you want to quit it.

I've always wished Second Life would render in stereo, that would be awesome. HMD head-tracking would be the icing on the cake.
Here's the (sort-of) feature request that has been hanging around for three years:
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-2972

Although there used to be an anaglyph version of SL available, it became out-of-date and therefore incompatible with the servers.

Vuzix also released a version that worked with the VR920, but it was no good at all.

It looks like people have managed to get SL working (to some extent) with stereo drivers though:

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone is willing to try to get this MMORPG running in s3d at this point in time? If so, try the SherwoodDungeon MMO:
http://www.maidmarian.com/home.html

I remember playing this in interlaced mode so I know it used to work but I forgot if it was OpenGL or directX9 or below. I was using old-school drivers and was surprised to see this work in a browser window. I can't test it myself now since my main gaming rig is offline for maintenance and this laptop I'm on has only a geforce-2. I guess it's not important. Oh wait, that is unless this website decided to have something similar as a VR-chat place. Maybe people would just kill each other. That would suck. Or maybe not.

later,

I've always entertained the idea of a 3D chat system, where your "avatar" was created from the specs of your PC, and those specs then detailed a spacecraft. So beefier rigs ended up as cooler looking starcraft. Certain brands could be attached to engines, or capabilities, for your craft. Gotta dream I guess:)
