Serious Sam Fusion 2017 [DX11]







3D Vision and geo-11 fix for Serious Sam Fusion 2017, using the DirectX 11 renderer.


Update (2023-10-22): added geo-11 fix. Some minor fixes.
Update (2020-10-25): added some GPU performance optimizations to the fix.


Fixed

  • Dynamic lighting and shadows.
  • Reflections and other haloing problems.
  • Fog.
  • Light shafts.
  • Heatwave distortion.
  • Distant geometry and skyboxes put at more depth when they were too close.
  • Correctly stereoized crosshair.
  • Stereoized parallax occlusion mapping.
  • Stereoized specular reflections.
  • Automatic very low convergence presets when using iron sights (holding right mouse button or LT in the controller) with the gun and assault rifle.
  • Automatic low separation and relatively high convergence when zooming with the sniper rifle.

Known issues
  • In some dark indoors sections, parallax occlusion mapping may be stereoized incorrectly. This happens when the game doesn't have a specific source for coordinates available.
  • In very few locations, specular reflections may remain at surface depth. This happens when the game doesn't have a specific source for coordinates available.

Installation
  • (geo-11, with build v0.6.182): download this file and extract its contents in the "Serious Sam Fusion 2017\Bin\x64" folder, where "Sam2017.exe" is. Remember to edit "d3dxdm.ini" to change your "direct_mode" to the output you need. For 3D Vision modes, use fullscreen ingame.
  • Download this file and extract its contents in the "Serious Sam Fusion 2017\Bin\x64" folder, where "Sam2017.exe" is.
  • Run the game and let it overwrite the Nvidia profile.
  • Configure the game to use the DirectX 11 renderer (the game uses it by default).

Recommendations
  • Set the parallax occlusion mapping settings to their maximum. You will see how nice they look in Serious Sam 3.

Hotkeys
  • F4: convergence presets (0.333333, 0.45, 0.666666, 1). 0.45 by default.
  • Right mouse button (hold) or LT (hold): very low convergence presets that trigger only when the Serious Sam 3 gun or assault rifle are used. This helps you aim with iron sights. If you want to disable this, comment the "preset = IronSight" line in "d3dx.ini". Similarly but unrelated to this hotkey, you can disable the sniper rifle zoom preset by commenting "preset = ZeroSep" in "d3dx.ini".

  1. Well its about time masterotaku got some kudos for this as Serious Sam would say "Hey, didn't I kick your ass a few rooms back?". The Fusion setup even though its not updated anymore is well, kick ass...buy Serious Sam 1st, 2nd encounter HD and BFE from say gameivo where its dirt cheap for steam keys and then you get fusion version for free! still works and man does it look good in stereo!!!!!!
