3D Vision fix for Vanquish. It includes several hotkeys to disable post processing effects.
Fixed
- Shadows.
- Lighting.
- Haloing problems.
- Sun position and lens flares are now at full depth.
- Geometry problems caused by the default profile.
- Stereoized specular reflections for a more realistic look.
- HUD at depth with multiple presets.
Installation
- Download this file and extract its contents in the "Vanquish" folder, where "Vanquish.exe" is.
- Run the game.
- If you want to save a default convergence value, open the game profile with Nvidia Profile Inspector and set "StereoProfile" to "Yes".
Hotkeys (not the numpad)
- F1: three convergence presets (high, medium, low). You can save the value of your current preset by pressing F7.
- F2: six HUD depth presets. Screen depth by default. This also controls subtitles during prerendered cutscenes. I recommend putting them at screen depth there.
- F3: HUD toggle. Not disabled by default.
- F4: depth of field toggle. Not disabled by default.
- F5: specular reflections stereoization toggle. Stereoized by default.
- F6: sky bloom toggle (the blue colored band at the top of the screen). Not disabled by default.
- 0: color filter toggle (which includes quite a bit of brightness). Not disabled by default.
- 9: color desaturation toggle (it doesn't switch it off completely, because that produced oversaturated colors). Not disabled by default.
- 8: bloom toggle. Not disabled by default.
Recommendations
- I can only speak about my experience, but if you have a 4c/8t CPU, alt+tab out of the game and set affinity to your 4 physical cores. Performance will improve a bit, maybe 10%.
- Check the list of launch commands here. I like to use "-extendedmotionbluroff -fov 90 -fastvisor", alongside disabling motion blur ingame.
- If graphics in 3D break after changing resolution while playing, change convergence a bit to fix them again.

Amazing. Thank you, been waiting for this so much. Please stay safe.
ReplyDeleteYes guys thanks so much, i don't know how to say. Is it possible to support your other project Helixvision via donation? I would like to pay you guys this way.

Hello,
ReplyDelete3dvsion doesn't work with this game for me.
Black screen when i acivate full screen in game.
Windows10 version 1903
Nvidia display driver 417.71
Steam overlay desactivated
Any idea ?
Try disabling fullscreen optimizations for "Vanquish.exe". Tell me if this works, because just now I noticed I was using that checkbox all this time.
DeleteThank you for you answer. No difference even with fullscreen optimizations disabled for "Vanquish.exe". In game, the screen flickers between game picture and black screen like a problem of frequency or to pass from 2d to 3dvision. I force all games with 120 Hz frequency. 3dvision doesn't work for Vanquish. Asus VG248QE Screen with displayport connection.
DeleteI finally found a solution. As i was thinking, it's a problem with my system, for certains games, to pass from desktop to game in 3d vision. For Vanquish, if NVIDIA 3D Vision Photo Viewer is active with any JPS photo, it's ok.
DeleteI'm having this exact same issue and still not able to figure out what the fix can be. I'd greatly appreciate to know what you or anyone did to solve this issue.
DeleteMy solution is before you launch game, open a JPS image with 3D Vision Photo Viewer to force your system to be in "3D mode" before launch Vanquish
DeleteThanks for another perfect fix :)
ReplyDeleteOhh my i am so happy Masterotaku~~~ thank you
ReplyDeleteThank you for fixing this, masterotaku. I just started playing this and the 3D looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately it is not working here as well. I am using a PG278Q and 2070. I tried any suggestion here with every possble combination with no luck. In 3D all i get is a sequence of a black-black-white screens, of the duration of about 4 seconds each. MEnu sounds effects are active in the white screen but i can't see the graphics. I am using the latest nvidia drivers for an Asus Rog laptop PC (DCH, downgrading is not working).
ReplyDeleteThe 3d Vision piramid is not even swiching on.
Deletesame here - blinking black-white screens with music in the background :( Windows 10 1909, 452.06. I just installed the game via Steam and applied the fix via 3DFM.
Deleteok, so the black-white blink issue is fixed by above suggestion to open the 3D Viewer - the game loads now but image is messed up, textures missing, most stuff broken in 3D, when I hit ESC, then menu opens up but is invisible.
DeleteJust checking to be sure you are using the Schwing hack for drivers past 425.31, and aren't using the anything newer than 452.06. Games will crash and can cause weird bugs like this if you aren't using hacked drivers.
DeleteRoll back to 425.31 and try it first. That's the last shipping driver with 3D Vision installed.
ok, it was the shadows - they need to be either LOW or HIGH, NORMAL is screwed up. Since the game's optimization seems wonky even on low settings I maxed everything and it works well :D

DeleteI got the same issue with black-white flickering on game start.
DeleteSimple solution: start the game in 2D mode first. Then in main menu go to "System" -> "Graphics" -> "Refresh Rate". By default this is set to 60hz which causes the black-white flickering. Set it to 120Hz and restart the game in 3D mode. All works fine then.
Hello, I am trying to get rid of the annoying sky bloom. It works, but my problem is that when I add this mod to the game it runs very slow. I am not using any 3D capabilities, just want to remove the sky bloom. How can I remove it without using 3D sfuff? Thanks
ReplyDeleteSo, how can I disable the sky bloom ONLY (using this mod) without the game slowing down? Without mod runs 60fps (on steam deck) with it enabled the game slows down heavily...
