Well... I tested this on NFS2SE, NFS3 and UT99. Most important thing of all - FSAA doesnt work with Wicked3D Sad

and then...

NFS2 unfortunately looks terrible - playing in 640x480 interlaced without AA is just...  Lips Sealed

NFS3 on the other hand, looks a tad little bit better with resolution override 1024x768 and the effect is most notable when menu is over the game (not really that thrilling...)

UT99 has no config file so the effect doesnt exist; but interlace is still there.

What games have you tested this on? Is there any game at all that works like the demo (flying metabyte letters)?

Flying Metabyte letters rock Smiley

I tried it with carmegeddon 2 which had no cfg file so it made one up.Results where  ok.
Quake 2 and unreal gOLD also tested.
I dont know if any games where specifically coded to take advantage of 3d shutter glasses, seems they where all adapted to show 3d.

Update:

Seems that NFS2SE works much better then I thought; once I forced 1280x1024@75Hz I did notice a difference in game-play - the game looks epic. Cheesy

NFS3 on the other hand, doesnt work as it should. If I force the glide render (force voodoo2a.dll driver with registry tweaks) - stereo vision doesnt work. It only works for D3D, which sucks (no fog, no special effects, smoke looks crappy...).

So please - if you have found any other drivers (other then 4.11) PLEASE post a download link here, I'm pretty sure that all of this is just a driver issue.

Falconfly, would you perhaps place those drivers in the download section too? It *is* 3dfx related  Roll Eyes

My RAID broke again and took with it the metabyte drivers that I had Sad Now I only have 5.02beta which doesnt really work and 4.11 that kind of works. I also tried the links, but they seam dead. Can anyone provide different links, or please re-upload the 4.12 driver?

Admins/moderators, what about placing these drivers in archives? 3dfxzone.it did it (for 4.11 at least, 4.12 is listed but its corrupt)

Hi elfuego, I have 7 Metabyte Wicked3D eyeScream releases, plus those additional drivers I told you about on Vogons. I'll send you a link to my FTP server in a PM.

We can decide where to host the files after properly testing these drivers. I will check V2 & V3 along this weekend, and V5 too if you still find problems enabling stereoscopy on it.

I would be interested in the 4.12 release too.

Can you send me a PM with the link also?

EDIT: As unsaid; I was able to retrieve the 4.12 release Grin Interested people, please send me an e-mail; I will reply attaching the requested files Wink

As I posted on vogons, the stereoscopy works for some games so its not completely useless. Its just that the games I have for testing (NFS3,4 and UT'99) do not work as they should. Sad

Thanks for the drivers! And seriously,
moderators/admins:
please put the drivers into archive.

Does anyone know where to find an ISO of the Wicked3D Eyescream drivers? Every version ive found of it requires the CD to install.

Didnt you get the CD with the eyeglasses? I guess I could make an ISO but im not sure how legal would that be, nor if anyone would care anyway since it's a dead company after all.

I had an iso at one time, I'll look. Might have left with the glasses when I sold them though.

Ive had my glasses for a very long time, and ended up losing the CD. I remember the performance not being so good on my Voodoo2. I have a Voodoo5 now, so it shouldn't be an issue. But thanks to anyone who does upload it, I really want to play some glide games in 3D.
