Not perfect but fully playable and much better than plain 2D! Haven't played for months after last reset but I kept reading the newsletter every months, waiting for 3D to be enabled (or DX11 to see something new) but neither never happened.

Now that I found how to enable 3D and how well it works, I wonder why the option is still not available? Why do you keep it grayed out?

Next step will be 3D & DX11, but until then I will fully enjoy a come back to play a few games now in 3D.

Out of curiosity, how are you enabling it?

[Sheraf]

How do you play MWO in 2D?

I think he means 2D in that a standard monitor does not truly have 3 dimensional images. It has two dimensional images rendered into three dimensional worlds.

Wouldnt that be PLANE 2D? (See what i did there?)

Waiting for the Oculus Rift or a 3D monitor that is not aided by glasses. They're coming, but slowly... at CES 2013 there was 40" TV that was glasses free 3D, and was viewable from almost all angles, but it was reported that the depth wasn't as much as TV's that use glasses.

It's coming I guess, there's more and more push for higher resolution TV's, and hand helds.. monitors are kinda left on the side-lines as usual.. (they all should be 120hz by now...)

W-what?

Ah. 3D. Because if you can't make it good, make it 3D.

C'mon guys, I was talking of playing in stereoscopic mode with the 3D Vision kit.

Wait, stereoscopic is working now? I bet the HUD doesn't work right and looking at an enemy will cause you to see two crosshairs side by side.

It works when you enable it. I only played once quickly yesterday evening (one map) and it works pretty well, only the trees could looks strange sometimes but had no problem to aim at enemies.

I thought this would be a topic about the cataphrac...

I wish I could edit the topic and change it to WOW, Stereoscopic 3D is awesome!

Dude. It was a joke on the words Plain and Plane and the three dimensional planes. God job on the 3d gameplay.

[Rhialto]

Anyone else tried it?

I think it could be great to have a pinned topic to discuss Stereoscopic 3D gameplay. Unless the devs say that since it's not yet enabled for everyone then it's too early? Why not let those who prefer 3D gameplay beta test it right now and give some early feedback?

One feedback I'd like to point out now is that when playing in Stereoscopic, the far background should not be blurred because our eyes have the ability to do the focus wherever we look at. Look at you monitor, it will be in focus, then look at something in your window outside and it will also be in focus. That's some error that even filmmaker still do because stereoscopic movie are still at an early stage.

Nice to hear. Gonna check it out right now.

Checked it out. It won't work. The option is still greyed out and I can't get it to turn on regardless. Works just fine on other games and is set up properly.

Is it something you need to turn on with the user.cfg?

Yes, my user.cfg had 0 byes, edited it to add 3 lines ans restarted MWO and the option was available.

You did what it's in the 1st post at http://mwomercs.com/...up-and-running/ ?

[MoonUnitBeta]

r_StereoScreenDist = 20.00
Does changing that make it look better/worse?

[Deamhan]

Ok, so I put in the code and enabled the 3D. It didn't work.
I noticed that it still says DX9 and is greyed out. Isn't this suppose to be DX11 now?

[Parnage Winters]

Bloody gimmicks.. yeah you heard me.
