That will set the key profile bits that will put it into 3D. That's the easiest way to do that. Then modify that profile to use the universal fix.<br /><br />Compatibility Mode does not allow changing convergence, that's part of why it's not as good. No pop out, because of how it works. Anything up close to the screen will be flattened out to a billboard. Better than 2D, but not nearly as fun, which is why most of us prefer geometry-3D whenever possible. bo3bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16084511382829706529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-72415496190262473442018-09-20T06:16:55.006-07:002018-09-20T06:16:55.006-07:00so, i deleted the old profile and fix, made a new ...so, i deleted the old profile and fix, made a new one called distance and managed to change to universal fix. is there any other steps i should be doing because 3D is not kicking in? maybe it just doesnt work in this case sadly. i hope someone else can try this to confirm its just not me messing up.<br /><br />and earlier with the old fix i tried compatibility mode, but it only almost works. i can set depth, but not convergence, nothing happens. the hotkeys are enabled and everything should work just fine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-44625011100922041562018-09-19T18:36:50.567-07:002018-09-19T18:36:50.567-07:00No, you don't want to use the actual fix from ...No, you don't want to use the actual fix from 3D Fix Manager, you already know it is out of date and gives the broken image. Using 3DFM that way is the same as doing it manually, just saves some steps.<br /><br />You want to try the Universal Fix part of 3DFM, where it will install a generic, universal fix for a Unity 5.6 game. This can work for games that have no fix, and might work here. No guarantees. You can find this in the 3DFM user interface, by choosing New in lower left corner for a New game not known by 3DFM, then look through the settings in the New Profile dialog. Change Game Engine to Unity 5.6 and use that universal fix. You'll need to experiment and learn. If you get stuck, best bet is to use the 3D Vision Forums to ask for help.<br /><br />If that doesn't work, you can also use 3DFM to enable fake-3D as a fallback. Might work OK in this game, because nothing is up close.bo3bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16084511382829706529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-75532065511034398332018-09-19T13:56:01.967-07:002018-09-19T13:56:01.967-07:00i tried it with 3D fix manager, but it looked pret...i tried it with 3D fix manager, but it looked pretty messy. certainly not flawless. lots of those ghost outlines and difficult to make out whats happening at times.<br /><br />sorry im not very good with this stuff so i have to ask: how do i use the universal fix?<br />what am i supposed to be looking for in that link you posted? apologies for my ignorance.<br /><br />also, is this supposed to be working in compatibility mode? i could settle for that if all else fails, but it didnt seem to be working for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-78338751060180786642018-09-18T19:07:59.535-07:002018-09-18T19:07:59.535-07:00You can try the Universal Fix that DJ-RK suggested...You can try the Universal Fix that DJ-RK suggested: <a href="https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/1035614/3d-vision/universal-fixes/5/" rel="nofollow">https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/1035614/3d-vision/universal-fixes/5/</a><br /><br />Easiest way to try it is to use the 3D Fix Manager, which will let you install the latest version.

I find 3D absolutely vital for racing games, especially ones with faster speeds.<br /><br />I'll have to fire it up to take a look to see what you're referring to, I thought I had improved the lighting fix on the last update, but maybe I'm thinking of another Unity game. I suggest checking back on this periodically (maybe in a week or so) to see if I post an update. It's currently v2.0, so it'll be v2.1 if/when I update it.DJ-RKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966527640579459620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-26910702178693453042016-09-27T19:21:01.528-07:002016-09-27T19:21:01.528-07:00Thank you very much!

Works very well, and definitely improves the game experience!<br /><br />Only problem is with dynamic directional lights, such as the car's headlights and some other environmental ones such as on the start and end buildings, and flashing broken lights on the track. They don't work properly, and create a popping effect. Though, this seems to be a problem with a lot of games. So I'm just impressed it looks this good as-is.<br /><br />But the game iss so much more fun, it's totally worth it! So much easier to judge distances with obstacles, particularly helps when flying!<br /><br />Thank you! Definitely gonna play more with this!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730523826928135025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-52427917094359518032016-06-08T23:05:23.292-07:002016-06-08T23:05:23.292-07:00Thank You very much.
