Hello 3D Enthusiasts,
This, MOD is untested in 3D vision. I ONLY have it currently working for HelixVision.. so it is untested in 3D vison so no promises there. but it does work both ways in VR and 3D mode in Helixvision.. Now again I am not sure if the 3D mode will make 3D vision gear work with Helixvision.
I am using a VR Headset to play WoW on so any 3D vision outside of Helixvision will not work..
I have made a fix for World of Warcraft Shadowlands. there are a few things we need to setup before starting. First do NOT install the fix or you will have no mouse cursor to setup the Graphics settings.
Second start the game and adjust your Graphics setting to desired levels and resolution. then set the
Shadow level to High then set WaterLevel to Good as well.
Then goto Advanced settings and look for Graphics API set it too DX11. then Quit the game and find your Config.WTF file located here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\_retail_\WTF\Config
Then right click it and goto Properties on the Config.wtf Properties page set the Attributes to READ ONLY put a check in the box and then click OK.
if you have any questions Please post here and I will try and help. It will take a while for Bo3b to get the fix on helixvison so I included the folder to install WoW in Helixvison in the meantime. here is the folder for Helixvision:
You will need to unzip it and place it here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\HelixVision\Fixes
Updated Jan. 20, 2024---And here is the Fix just incase:
ENJOY The_Nephilim
IMPORTANT STEP HERE:
When, logged into the game go to Chat windows and type the following command in the chat window or the mouse cursor will disappear after 10 minutes. Also there should be 3 mouse cursors when first logging in this is normal as Blizzard changed something and the mouse disappeared permanently. you put the following command and the hardware cursor will disappear and the Stereo cursor will stay and be permanent..
/console hardwarecursor 0
If you have any questions Please post here and I will try and help.
UPDATE: I just fixed Death in Shadowland world. there was a black image in front of the char. after you died which made it hard to navigate. I also rechecked shadows. I will get the Options menu sorted out. but if you have any questions or something is not right please let me know..
EDIT: The Following link is for users for Geo-11. I currently have it setup to use Katanga_vr so if you need to setup for others please do so. if you do not know how maybe you shouldn't be poking around in there haha!!:
UPDATED: Jan 20, 2024:
EDIT: The Following Link is the OLD fix. I am just keeping it here for reasons I been explained to leave.. DO NOT USE!!
I, would also like to thank KAI for letting me use this fix here. and he helped me with the numerous questions I had hehe!! thank you Kai !!!! ;)
Another thank you to Masterotaku for teaching me how to fix the PS HLSL Error X3018
ENJOY,

Hi Nephilim,
ReplyDeleteAny ideas why 3D won't kick in when choosing DX11? DX12 works with 3D. Thanks
I forgot to add the direction for changing line 7 or so in the Config.wtf file. I added them sorry about that..
DeleteI added in the directions above to add at line 7 the dx11 code in the config.wtf file and it may need to be checked each launch as even when you set it too read only it still changes it back to DX12 for some odd reason.. but if anyone comes here in the future I will try and keep monitoring this thread..
DeleteHi Nephilim,
DeleteI’m using regular nvidia 3D vision for wow retail. I did check the config.wtf for dd11 and it in there, but no 3d.
same issue for me, doesnt kick in in dx11. Tried newest drivers, recomended 4.x.x, with fix and without, still nothing.
ReplyDeleteHey Guys, it is me The_Nephilim, I was not able to figure out how to sign in and get back to here?? anyhow are you guys using Helixvision or a 3d vision setup? I will reinstall and try this out again to make sure it works but when I played in Helixvision it worked fine. did you guys get into the game and the 3D was not working or where you only in the main menu. if it does not work ingame it is probally the WoW.wtf file is getting changed . make sure I think it is around line 7 it states this: SET gxApi "D3D11"
ReplyDeleteit is not the WOW.wtf file it is the Config.wtf file check that as that is a big one as too why 3D does not kick in Please check the instructions if not read yet..
ReplyDeleteHey to whomever may need this the fix still works you need to change the DX11 from DX12 in the Config.WTF file on around line 7 then save it. If 3D does not kick in the main menu it is not set in the .wtf file.. I just ran it and it works fine ;) now let me see why I can not sign in..
ReplyDeleteWell I am back after some time off and I just redid the fix and somethings were broke still like the lighting eefect, which I just now fixed.
ReplyDeleteI had an issue in the deathrealm in Bastion so I corrected that. Also the Skyboxes were dealt with as well so should be more seemless on what was corrected and I do not think they are tied to convergance any longer.. I have not had the issue where the WTF file gets changed but currently I am having issues with saving the "High" Shadow level it always reverts to fair and only the shadows. which is not a big deal but not sure why only that setting refuses to change..
I havwe yet to get to Blackrock Dungeon to check the firepit in the spider section but It should still be fixed. and I have not yet bought dragonFlight to see what is going on in that realm but hopefully soon and I can check things out over there.
this fix is amazing, thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much <3333
ReplyDeleteYes it works pretty good. Without Kais fix and his help this would not be. I am going to have to log back on and see if the fix still works. I am sure they broke the shadows shader by now.. oh and your most welcome glad someone besides my self enjoyed it ;)
ReplyDeleteplz help start 3d vission
Deletewhat is you issue? so many anonymous I am unsure if you are the same person??
DeleteI just updated and the shadows are fixed. Plus I added for users of GEO-11. you will need to change the mode as I am using Katanga_VR..
ReplyDeleteHi Nephilim, my Config.wtf has SET gxApi "D3D11" and fullscreen (windowed) but 3D still doesn't kick. I'm using the normal nvidia 3d vision setup. Thank you for your effort.
ReplyDeleteplease update to the latest version
ReplyDeleteDiablo 3 works 3D, but WOW doesn't work, win 11pro
DeleteEDIT:UPDATED Sep. 12, 2023: Neph andKais 3D fix>>> extracted content: World of Warcraft\_retail_\ , SET gxApi "D3D11" + Config.wtf Properties page set the Attributes to READ ONLY ====
Delete3d vision won't start
Delete@Anonymous, does the pyramid light up? also does it just look 2D?? any error message? I just tried the Ge0-11 version it worked fine. Which Driver version and GPU do you have/use?
Deletehttps://youtu.be/Ui-2dAi1bKk that's what I did, it launches in 2D, but with Diablo 3 everything is ok, it launches in 3D without problems. I just started learning 3D vision. Can you contact swami directly somewhere?
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteOK I fixed this messed up blog links.. I had updated the fix for Helixvision but the blog had the old fix.. try using the 949 folder for Helixvision and update the fix with Helixvision and it should work. the directionsd here are updated so check those first.. you need to put the 949 folder in the the folder for Helixvision then restart Helixvision and then update with the Helixvision update fix button and it should kick in Sorry about that but we will get you working..
ReplyDeleteI will try and retest the Helixvision fix give me an hour to test it I have to get older drivers so I can use Helixvison.. but it should be good to go now..
https://youtu.be/0RYYCTLN1OU
DeleteIt seems like I’m doing everything right, but unfortunately 3D WoW doesn’t want to launch.
try launching from 3D Fix manager and not from the wow.exe.
Deleteyes I just tried launching the game from the WoW.exe and 3D does not launch. when I launced it through Helixvision it startedin 3D that has got to be it..
Deletehttps://youtu.be/IzuVBKKlYGU
Deletesomething like that, well, it doesn’t want to run WoW in 3D, I have Windows 11 Pro, but Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Batman Origins are installed, everything works fine in 3D
umm what version nvidia driver do you use and which video card? also try running WoW.exe as admin rights..
DeleteRTX 2080 Super, Driver 452.06
Deleteok that checks out not sure why it is not working did you try runningas admin? I just testedit with 3D Fix manager and it workedin 3D for me???
Deleterunning 3DFix Manager.exe through the system administrator, and launching the game through 3DFixManager.exe in 3D, no success (( Windows 11 was installed a month ago and updated to the latest version
DeleteG-Sync off
Deleteno, set the wow.exe to run as admin in compatibility mode and run that in admin mode not 3d fix manager.
Deletewierd the other games work in 3d???
DeleteWow.exe Running it through the system administrator did not help
Deleteok not sure what is going on here?? maybe try posting in the discord channel?
Deleteyou said your other games work in 3D?
Deleteyes AC odyssey Batman Diablo 3 +++++
Deleteyes well the only thing I can think of is that the dll that was modified by Kai is not working correclty? maybe a win 11 isuue?
DeleteDo you have core isolation turned off?
DeleteI'll try to install Win 10 this weekend, maybe I can give you a link to the discord channel
Deleteyes like I said it is working here just fine. I am on Win 10 pro and use a 1080ti with 452.06 drivers.. The 3D kicks in fine when I run the game through 3D fix manager but it is wierd it is not working for you..
Delete_Do you have core isolation turned off?
Delete_I can’t understand what they are talking about, where to look?
This comment has been removed by the author.
Deletegot win 11 search and type Core Isolation it will show up as an system setting. turn off memory integrity, I doubt this is it but you never know.. still wierd the other games work whilst WOW does not..
Deletekernel isolation, checkbox 1 was disabled (memory integrity), checkbox 2 (list of blocked driver vulnerabilities) was enabled, I disabled it - it didn’t help
DeleteI'll post back when I install Windows 10...
OK Hopefully that will fix it.. not sure what is going on with this it should just work..
Deletehttps://youtu.be/Z7G0CSohGSo Installed Win 10 pro 22Н2, installed DirectX 9.0c. I launched Batman, everything is ok, it works in 3D, but WoW doesn’t want to launch... maybe something else needs to be done?... like installing some kind of driver or C++ libraries
Deletehmmm, that is so wierd. I don't think those libraries are required and if they were they should have been installed during installation..do you have the Discord channel from the blog?? Maybe try posting there to et more eyes on this issue. it could be that Wow will not work in 3D vision?? I dont see why not it launces in 3D for me but in anaglyph.. so it should work..
Deleteoh and your youtube link does not work says the video was removed??
DeleteThe link seems to be correct, access to the video via the link
Deleteasked for help in the channel #helix-vision
Deletewell it seems to be running just not in 3D ok well
DeleteI thought it was not running at all.. really strange..
Hey I just testedit in Helixvision it worked as it should out of the box. at least the Anaglyph kicked in on Desktop and it was 3D in my VR Headset. so it should be working for 3D vision.. just follow the updated directions and it should kick in.. I guess I did not update the blog to the new instructions.. if you still have issues let me know..
ReplyDeleteWe will get this working for you WoW in S3D is very cool..
Hello, despite the command set up for the mouse I still have the cursor that disappears after 10 minutes, it seems that an update is responsible for this.
ReplyDeleteSorry about that appears we have to add a ZERO after all of it. I had updated the blog with this info try the newe command it should work now sorry for the long delay..
ReplyDeleteI updated the GEO-11 fix I will get it uploaded soon.
ReplyDeletenew Geo-11 fix uploaded. Wow Should work good now in Geo-11..
ReplyDeleteHeyAll, Kai had given me a Regex fix for shadows. so I am trying to update all the fixes with the new regex fix that should fix shadows forever..
ReplyDeleteOK all the fixes should have the Shadow regex in it. and it should work now without the need for me to constantly updating the shadow fixes,.. Thank you Kai.. :) also the instructions been updated please read important info there was added about 3 cursors,,.
ReplyDeleteHi Nep, It seems the issue with 3D vision won't kick in is due to the included d3d11.dll. After I replaced it with KAI WoW BC d3d11.dll, 3D then it is working properly. The issue I am having now is the F2 key and other hot keys don't seem to work beside F1 key.
ReplyDeleteand also HUD text is looking strange.
Deleteyes sorry I have no idea if I will get too fix this. I will try and have a look this weekend. I am unsure but I thought there was only the F1 key now??
Delete@TK which fix both or just the geo 11 one? which is broke? I just updated the fix in both fixes with the dll from WOWBC Edition from Kai.. I am unsure how thast got switched out but my madness I can see why it would happen. I am going to look at the HUD/UI I noticed it too but just looked around it.. maybe I have to delete the fix for it??
DeleteHey Everybody, I updated both GE)-11 fix and the 3d Vision fix with the correct dll. that may have been the issue with others and 3d not kicking in. Still unsure how that dll crept in there but sorry hopefully it is fixed now.. I also checked the Hud/UI it seems it was ok maybe something else was amiss but it looked fine in Katanga..
ReplyDeleteOK and there is ONLY 1 key, and it is set for convergance that is F1..
ReplyDeleteThank you for the updates Nephilim. The only weird issue I have with retail wow 3D is with blizzard GUI text, like the quest tracking, hotkeys text on the action bars. They look high depth/convergence and it can't be adjusted at all. I don't have that issue with classic wow, only retail. BTW, I'm playing in 3D surround so not sure if that's the case. Much appreciated for your work here.
ReplyDeletelet me have a look but last I checked it seemed fine??
ReplyDeletewell it seems it was broke. I made a fix just need to update the boards with the new fix..
DeleteI updated @TK if you can check this fix and let me know. IT was fixed on my end so it should be good now.. thank you for letting me know..
ReplyDeleteHi Nephilim, Yep, it's fixed. Thank you very very much.
DeleteHey Your Welcome enjoy I still think WOW looks so cool in 3D. I would love to see a VR Mod like other games seem to be getting these days.. maybe one day..
DeleteHi Nephilim, Another thing I noticed, when using direct X 11, shadow in certain areas in shadowland and dragon flight are out of sync, like it's popping in and out. However if I use directx 11 legacy no problem at all, but performance is not as good as direct X 11
DeleteWell I think Legacy is all we can use. there might be other shaders and the regex does not fix them.. so just use Legacy sorry bout that..
