Horizon Zero Dawn [RealVR + VRto3D]


Luke Ross updated his RealVR mod to support VRto3D for 3D displays.
This game is compatible with 3DVision driver 452.06, but if you have a different 3D display it will run better on newer drivers.

Notes:

  • Has dynamic-depth crosshair
  • Camera now has native controls, so you can play with a gamepad on single/multi-display or mouse & keyboard on multi-display
  • Unfortunately, Sony delisted HZD to make way for an unnecessary remaster, but you should still be able to find keys for sale
  • RealVR uses Alternate Eye Rendering, so it is essential to maintain a consistent framerate to avoid eye-flips or other artifacts, so adjust your in-game settings accordingly
  • You will have to choose between:
    • 1:1 aspect ratio with correct aspect ratio cutscenes, wasted rendering, and having the HUD in the center 2/3rds of the screen; gameplay is 16:9
    • 16:9 aspect ratio with everything in cutscenes stretched horizontally, but no wasted rendering and HUD is normal
  • 3DVision setups require a 2nd display to run VRto3D and have to follow this procedure every time you want to play the game
  • The game has some aggressive culling, so you may see things disappear
  • The camera in cutscenes often shows you things with funny animations that were out of frame in the base 2D game

You will need:

  • VRto3D setup for your 3D display here
  • RealVR v14.1.0 or newer from Patreon
After getting these, you can follow the instructions below, on GitHub or watch video instructions here

    2. Yes, but the setup is complex. Read VRto3D instructions carefully and watch the linked Youtube guides.

    1. It's not compatible currently. Luke Ross hasn't said anything about updating his mods for it yet. You can still buy keys for the original version if you want to play in 3D. Remaster likely won't be 3DVision compatible either, as forbidden West isn't.
