Jane's Worl War 2 Fighter not compatible ?

Hi all, I've using iZ3D driver 1.09 with Forceware 180.84, newer game like Tomb Raider Underworld and Prince of Persia, even older games like Witcher, Gothic 3 work under anaglyph mode. However older game like Jane's WW2F does not work with anaglyph mode, hitting NUM * doesn't do anything. Is there a way to make this game work in S3D ? Could it be the Direct X used for this game is just too old to be compatible ? Thanks all and happy holidays!

If it is DX7 or lower, it won't work. Do you know what DX version is being used?

Regards,

DX5, I guess I'm out of luck on this one. One of my fav games.

Maybe not.

If you can handle a dual boot, you can install the old NVIDIA 9X.XX series Forceware and stereo drivers, and run the game based on the Neurok Optics stereo profile.

Yep this is a fall back plan I had as well though it's a pain in the behind. I still got the 7900GS and I can reinstall it with older Nvidia stereo pair drivers. Thanks for the quick helps. D.R.

Ps: You also need to run winxp to run older nvidiastereodrivers with that 7900GT. They work with anaglyph as well as neurok (iz3d).

Cheers

I run XP on the game computer thanks god so when I have to swap card it's only the drivers need to be reinstalled. heheh...

Both of you mentioned neurok, could you elaborate since I'm not familiar with it. Thanks.

There's a stereooption in older nvidiastereodrivers called "NeurOk 3D" or similar. This is an algorithm for the iz3d monitor. It suits only the iz3d-monitor though.

I don't have iz3d monitor yet, sorry that's not clear in my post.
My stereo setup:

24" LCD
WinXP, Forceware 180.84, iZ3D driver in optimized anaglyph mode, anaglyph glasses
8800GTS


OR

21" CRT
WinXP, Nvidia stereo pairs 180.84 and 162.50, shutterglasses
8800GTS (or for older games a 7900GS in the wing)

The 7900 and older drivers are fine for shutterglasses if you want to use those. Anaglyph is of course also there in older drivers.
