  1. Great job Fran, looks very good. I noticed that you have to turn off MSAA in order to remove the border and road issue. Thanks for this!

    1. thnks for testing, it is not totally fix, the main change compare with dx9 version it is the fire lights and refrected lighs in walls for example, now i think they are ok. I will see if i see something rare with msaa thnks

  4. Revisiting this in 2018 - disabled SSAO as recommended - works perfect - seeing hundreds of soldiers running and fighting in 3D is amazing, especially those decapitations! Thanks so much!

  5. Can Anyone get this to work now, i used to play this loads and was working awesome 3 or so months ago, but now Nvidia has unsupported 3d vision, i cant get it work at all, on whql 425.31 the shadows are wrong, and on 430.86 it shows nothing anymore.

    everything was working fine but then windows did its dreaded gpu update and i lost 3d vision, so i used DDU and reinstalled 430.86 which is what i thought i was using and it wont run at all (shows no graphics after initial splash screen) if i roll back to 425.31 i can get it to run and in 3d but all the shadows are wrong (and the 3d is wrong) i successfully had it run and installed properly and played it loads before so i know its not my installation.

    i have disabled future driver installs from windows, but can anyone tell me any working driver version that works with this fix i am using version 1903 of windows 10

    can anyone help?

    1. Managed to get it working using 419.17 reinstalled, definitely stopped working on 430.86 and with 425.31 the 3d was all wrong.

      hopefully this might be helpful to others.

    2. Strange that a different driver made a difference. Not sure why this would have helped.

      As a data point, I tested this briefly using Driver 425.31 on Win10 1903, and stereo was working correctly here. Shadows were fixed, and game looks good.
