You have other issues? --- please privide a screenshot and a savegame to rauti@inetmx.de


3.  Download


4.  Introduction to get it working

- copy archive files to the directory where you can find the SF3ClientFinal.exe (main directory)
- cycle DEPTH with TAB key ingame or choose your likes for convergence/separation/Hud-Depth

4.3  Ingame Settings

- up to you


5.  Key Settings

5.1  Key Settings (Keyboard + Mouse Gameplay)

"NUMPAD +"
-  turn off/on AutoDepth HUD

"TAB"
-  cycle Depth presets with suitible HUD
==> 2 Depths here with 2 HUD-Depths, cycle it until its matching your scene/zoom

"NUMPAD -"
- cycle three well defined HUD depth-configurations


5.2  Key Settings (Controller Gameplay)

"XB_GUIDE"
-  cycle Depth presets with suitible HUD
==> 2 Depths here with 2 HUD-Depths, cycle it until its matching your scene/zoom



6.  Key Setting - Customization

----only for more advanced users---

If you don’t like the settings the fix comes with, you have to find your own likes:
- to watch your current convergence/separation set hunting=1 in d3d11.ini
- change constants/settings/keys and check the result in game by pressing F10


6.1  3Dmigoto - Constants

----only for more advanced users---

- the fix comes with the following default constant settings:

;HUD-DEPTH
z20=0.99
(less = less depth of HUD)

;AutoDepthTrigger
z22=1.0
(1 = om 0 = off)


6.2  Advanced Key Config

----only for more advanced users---

You can define keys in [Constants] section with:

[KeyWHATEVERYOURNAMEIS]
Key = KEY 
CONSTANTX = XXX
SEPARATION = SEPXX
CONVERGENCE = CONVXX

- for choosing a key look here for replace KEY with it (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd375731(v=vs.85).aspx)
- replace CONSTANTX with the constants written above
- replace XXX with a value, see above
- replace SEPXX with a separation value, leave it = the separation you choose by STRG+F3/4, no changes, 100 = 100%
- replace CONVXX with a convergence value, leave it = the convergence you choose by STRG+F5/6, no changes

Key Press Types:
- type = hold ==> only active while holding this key
- type = toggle ==> enable/disable this setting
- type = cycle ==> cycles the settings via this key, e.g. SEPARATION = 100, 50 will cycle between 100% and 50% separation pressing this key
--if you have more settings you need to define it for every cycle step:
--means: if you want to change separation and you want to use the same constant for both settings use:
SEPARATION = X1, X2
CONSTANTX = XXX, XXX
- no definition = settings set on ON once pressed the key


You can also change any existing key definitions changing the key behind key = in the d3dx.ini .... if you like the setting but want another key for it.

  2. It looks like after the last game update, the hud elements are at the depth of the screen. You can only set the depth of the mouse cursor.

    1. Most likely not going into exclusive full screen mode. Experiment and see if you can get it to go exclusive mode. Stuff like alt-tab, and alt-return might work. Also might have game settings that work.

    1. To answer my own question it is loaded in reforced with driver 425.31 but I can also confirm that the depth settings and the constant only effect the cursor not the hud which makes health bars unplayable for me.
