Big thanks mate
ReplyDeleteIf I ever finish DS2 SOTFS, I'll definitely be checking this out (DS3 by then should be on sale; with that one I'm 100+ hours in and about 60% through). I prefer to play this one offline, so it sounds like I will be OK. Thanks! Not sure if you were involved in the SOTFS fix, but I was tearing my hair out with Geforce 3D Profile Manager. Profiles would not 'take' until I discovered I needed to run that program as admin, even though I'm always admin.
ReplyDeleteThanks great job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOMFG you are the best!! Huge thanks to your hard work for this.
ReplyDeleteOMG, guys! You nailed it! AGAIN! :D THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
ReplyDeletewith 3dtv play enabled in the nvidia panel, i have this bug in 2D : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CAy_Zjtuus
ReplyDeleteand it is worse in 3D !
without 3dtv play activated, no problem but of course impossible to play in 3D : perhaps a problem with drivers 361.43 in 3dtv play
http://i.hizliresim.com/210qDA.jpg
ReplyDeleteStrange... Is that a Steam version of the game? or something cracked/hacked?
DeleteAlso, just posting a picture with no actual description or text or whatever will not help you here mate.
DeleteCheck your game and such.
If is not a Steam version sorry about you, but you need a Steam version!

Deletealt tab and color fix :)
Deletenp good games
how do you resolve blue color problem ? Alt-Tab not working . In windowed mode, no issue , but in full screen, orange are blue .

You were already told once.
Sorry! thanks you!!
DeleteSuperb work everyone - thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteIt keeps crash..even if I somehow get it launch, all objects just look like a bare Dark soul 3 with 3d vision along with blue color problem.
ReplyDeleteRemove the fix using uninstall.bat to start with. Make sure the base game plays properly, and the right resolution you want, and right settings. Next make sure that it works when 3D Vision is enabled, but no fix installed. Only AFTER the game is running should add the fix.
DeleteThe blue color problem is most likely you have the wrong profile. You can tell that without with the fix installed.
It's working for other people- something is wrong with your setup.
Super! Thanks for your great effort guys! Helifax FTW
ReplyDeleteHey, as there is SBS support - would it be somehow possible to set up 3840x2160@1x60@SBS (using 3DTV-Play or some hack that works over HDMI 2.0)? I think that would be way more playable than 1080p@2x30/720@2x60 @3D-FS.
ReplyDeleteIs there a way to adjust the VK_F1 convergence depths with custom depths of our preference? The default is 2.3, 1.0 I would like to make the convergence a little higher but no matter what values I add it makes no difference in the game. How can we customize this setting to our liking?
ReplyDeleteEdit the d3dx.ini file, and look for the VK_F1 setting in text. You can change the numbers there to anything you like. Be sure to match the syntax of the command. Since it's a 'cycle' type, you can also try adding more variants to the list.
Delete3d vision stopped working for me after today's nvidia driver update. Anyone else?
ReplyDeleteIf a game ever stops working with driver install in 3D.
Delete3d vision sometimes doesnt install properly.
Just reinstall via clean install.
Working perfectly fine here on 368.22 driver
DeleteTested on 3 machines...
yeah its definitely not working for me now.. I did several clean install using a driver cleaner tool in safemode on top of clean install in nvidia's software. I get the same results; no 3d vision with today's drivers.
ReplyDeleteJust tried Dark Souls 1 3D vision and that game works perfectly; definitely something up with DS3 now.
DeleteApologies for the multiple posts; just tried two other games in 3D Vision and they both work perfectly as well. Seems like the latest Nvidia drivers 368.22 broke Dark Souls 3 3D Vision. All of my other games including DS1 & 2 work perfectly fine. For some reason DS3 doesnt work correctly.. Not sure what else to do.
Deletehttps://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/925628/3d-vision/dark-souls-iii-3d-vision/11/
DeletePost there.
There is a profile in one of the links above.
DeleteYou need to add it again for the fix to work... Maybe, I should add it to the original description, or people should try to READ the comments a bit;)) It always provide info;)
Hope you got it sorted;) (I think you did, if I remember right) ^_^
I did, user error. CTRL + ALT + F11 "Toggle 3D Compatibility Mode". For some reason other games didn't require that step but DS3 needs for you to hit CTRL + ALT + F11 at the start of a freshly installed driver in DS3. I believe this was mentioned in your release notes somewhere that I may have overlooked. This may be helpful for other 3D Vision DS3 players that have that same issue I had.
ReplyDeletemenus in this game are broken with high convergence. any way to just make them flat? with high convergence the icons shift too much
ReplyDeletehow can I play Dark Souls 3 with 3dtv play in 1080p 24Hz Full screen?
ReplyDeletefound no option that work for me
Should be possible. Best bet is to ask on the Geforce forum referenced above.
DeleteCan I use resolutions other than 1080p/720p in TAB or SBS mode? I tried but 3d wont kick in. Passive lg tv here.
ReplyDeleteI read some posts people talking about running is 1440p.
anyone who gets random freeze after 3d vision fix ? I don't know exactly what is causing but I'm suspecting it's the fix..
ReplyDeletethe fix works superb but still incorrect some halo around some fire..and after few minutes or hours, the images of weapons, estus and item get affected by convergence. so it was good when I launched, but some few minutes or hours later, all icon push back to screen. (they split into two images) this is so annoying and happens randomly. I have to decrease the convergence in order to merge the two separated images of weapons, etc.
ReplyDeleteRead the Key presets again... You are pressing C by mistake and that is what you get...
Deletethe link is broken :(
ReplyDeleteCould anyone replace it, please :(
ReplyDeleteThe download should be working again:)
ReplyDeleteI can't make this game start with 3d, I followed the tutorial of exporting and importing the new profile. I entered Ctrl+alt=F11 But it will not start 3d. Any advice guys? I'm using Win 8.1,Asus strix gtx 980, and Asus rog swift monitor. 375.95 nvidia drivers.Thanks for these amazing fixes for real.
ReplyDeleteIt needs to be running in full screen mode. 3D does not work in borderless fullscreen. Try alt-return, and/or alt-tab. Make sure you can see it working in 3D before installing the fix.
DeleteWasn't sure if anyone noticed with this game being older but the SSAO glitch of the noise in lit areas has been in this fix for quiet a while now. I always thought it was the nvidia driver for so many months with the SSAO noise sparkly glitch but today I uninstalled this fix to see if the noise from the SSAO in certain lit areas went away and it did; the issue reappeared after reinstalling the fix. Just wanted to bring to the team's attention.
ReplyDelete- 26th of April 2016 - Fixed the "SSAO glitch" that was present in some lit areas.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it was fixed last year but now its back in the game after so many patches and driver updates etc.
this seems broken now. When 3d is activated the framerate tanks to single digits.
ReplyDeleteYet another Win10 problem, caused by Anniversary Update. Works correctly under Win7.
DeleteBased on comments in the main thread, as of 1/21/17 fix was working.
the link is broken!
ReplyDeleteWorked fine here. Try to delete browser cache, or use different browser.
DeleteAh! Thanks man! Chrome works, firefox dont!
DeleteI can't seem to get the game to launch at 120hz. Stays locked at 60 preventing monitor from correctly rendering. I set my windows res @ 120hz, I checked the box in the test 3d in nvidia control panel to always use 120hz. Nothing works, stays at 60hz.
ReplyDeleteSame here..locked at 60hz, automatically changed to 60hz from 120hz.
DeleteFrist of all, thanks for the fix. I have just one question, is the the focus icon 2d only?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the fix.
ReplyDeleteI have some stranges effects on bonefire or on messages on ground : there are a miror effect (i can see my character on them).
Its normal or it can be fix ?
thank you
pb was the profil like say upper, but 3D Profile Manager dont work with 391.24 driver (error disk when import profil) go back to 384.76 an the import worked = nice 3d, thank you.
DeleteWhen I first installed this fix, I got some horrible flickering around all the light sources (bonfires, etc). I don't remember how I got that problem fixed, but it was working perfectly for a couple of weeks. And then I updated my drivers through Nvidia GeForce Experience, clearing all of my settings in the process. Aaaand Dark Souls 3 decided to go back to the flickering problem again.
ReplyDeletehttps://youtu.be/2RHSKbwQ5XA
I tried importing that suggested profile in Nvidia Inspector. I tried changing all of the in game settings, all the way up and all the way down. Nothing seems to fix this problem other than uninstalling the fix entirely. I wish I could remember exactly what I did to fix this last time...
Oh wow, I'm a klutz. After spending hours trying to figure this out over the last day, I tried reinstalling the fix without updating 3DMigoto in the process, and whatd'ya know? That was the fix I was looking for. Well, in case anyone else has this problem, or in case I run into it again in the future and forget what I did to fix it *again*, well, it's as simple as that!
ReplyDeleteAnd Helifax, thanks for all of the wonderful contributions you made to keeping 3d vision alive this long! I loved the 3D on my 3DS, and now I get to enjoy Dark Souls 3 in glorious 3D! Praise the sun!
Is this still working for people after the Windows 10 October 2018 update? I have 3D vision working with a few other games, but I just can't get it to even start 3D mode in DS3. Some things i've tried:
ReplyDeleteI've installed the suggested 3D profile
Rebooted bunches of times
Tried with and without the updated 3dmigoto version
Uninstalled the fix, reinstalled the game from scratch, un/reinstalled the driver with DDU
Tried starting with the monitor in various refresh rates and resolutions
Tried "Force CM" in 3D Fix Manager, still can't get it to go into 3D mode
Pressing Ctrl-Alt-T and Ctrl-Alt-F11 and Ctrl-Alt-Insert do nothing in game.
I have the same bonfire flickering someone posted a video of in the comments here, but no 3D at all.
Am i missing something or is it just not working anymore?
Not sure about 1810, but 1803 is working fine, I just tested it again. Try to roll back if you can.
DeleteNeeds to have the "Disable fullscreen optimizations" applied however. Microsoft just continually breaks things with their updates now.
Is this game capped to 60fps (meaning 30 in 3D)?
ReplyDeletewoooot , and the party continues with all these releases. Thank You for all these gaming pleasures. will Donate for sure
