It works flawlessly with Call of Pripyat, even with Atmosfear and Absolute Nature installed.<br />Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work with Call of Chernobyl or Call of Misery mod. I'm getting the same problems as without the fix, like broken and flickering shadows. As this is the pinnacle of Stalker games so far I would be amazed being able to play it in 3d. If you have the time and interest, please take a look at it.

If you are getting good 3D with the old version, definitely go with that. There are possibly some changes because of the DX11, but you will have to really look for them. <br /><br />The only reason they moved to DX11 was to support the new consoles, not to make the game look better. In my opinion, 3D is 10x more valuable than anything DX11 provides, but everyone has their own preferences.<br /><br />No idea why the fix is broken for you. Could be changes in game or drivers, but not super likely. Double check your installation, especially making sure the profile is setup right.bo3bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16084511382829706529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-38218763006964939922017-06-29T07:40:47.308-07:002017-06-29T07:40:47.308-07:00DHR Thanks for the Stalker..awsome game @3d

I suddenly noticed its using dx8, i switched to 11 and shadows ect broke i tried pribyat and its also botched. Well in not asking whats wrong... propably Something in asking is there a big deifference visually dx8 vs dx11 in this old game ? <br />It might be drivers or the profile messed because of driver update.

Apparently there are other 3d drivers out there that will let you set a different convergence point (the end of the weapon) when triggered by the associated ADS button...but naturally said drivers break 3dvision and thus become useless. <br />Thanks anyways though! Rather unfortunate, as the look of iron sights with depth is absolutely awesome.

When done, press the ] key to reset the HUD. You can change the ] key to another of your choosing by editing the d3dx.ini file.<br /><br />As for the whole ADS conundrum, that's been the bane of FPS' in 3D. In some cases, it is possible to adjust convergence values for individual shaders, but unfortunately that was not the case here in STALKER, or else I would have implemented a better solution. Sorry to say, but lowering the convergence is literally the best it gets here.DJ-RKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966527640579459620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-661185819918371352016-08-05T13:26:01.263-07:002016-08-05T13:26:01.263-07:00Okay, so while the scope issue persists, i delved ...Okay, so while the scope issue persists, i delved into the d3dx settings and figured out adding depth to ADS, the issue is that iron sights fail to line up.

In static lighting mode with AA disabled there is a great depth while aiming down sights, but in DX11 with the patch that convergence seems to be lost and thats rather unfortunate as the depth when aiming adds a huge level of immersion in my eyes. Also wondering if there is a fix for the broken scopes in DX11 mode, the sides show open and you can see the background; this once again appears to be an issue that doesnt arise with static lighting.DerpinDoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13923974120697986643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-17468554147705425842016-06-16T11:07:40.011-07:002016-06-16T11:07:40.011-07:00Got some good news, and not so good.

Decided to give it a go last night with Win7, and it was able to load no problem. The not so good news is that I couldn't even get the first broken effect fixed. What should have been a standard stereo correction is only shifting the broken effect to one side or the other... so in other words, it looks like it'll be a tough nut to crack, and having to work with the Helixmod wrapper, which is far less user friendly than the DX11 3DMigoto wrapper, doesn't help a ton... so anyways, there is potential for a fix, it just might take a while.DJ-RKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966527640579459620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-1351755170552081362016-06-16T11:03:09.912-07:002016-06-16T11:03:09.912-07:00Interesting.

I figured it was just how that setting was, and all other settings (including HBAO on medium) had lighter/more detailed shadows. What you described sounds to be quite similar, so could be a bug on some level (like you said, maybe the driver). Can't really provide any further suggestion on that front, but glad that other methods are working accordingly at least.<br /><br />I'm certainly willing to revisit and attempt to update my fix for any major new mod releases, such as Lost Alpha DC or Misery 2.2, if needed.DJ-RKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966527640579459620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-40920954206987112712016-06-16T02:40:15.238-07:002016-06-16T02:40:15.238-07:00Tested it and noticed one thing: HDAO doesn't ...Tested it and noticed one thing: HDAO doesn't work for me even with the provided profile installed. Everything in the shade is just black and r2_sun_lumscale_hemi command has no effect at all. Maybe it's my drivers fault. Anyway, the other SSAO methods work just fine so it's OK.<br />Great work! <br /><br />If you could make a fix for Lost Alpha when the Dev's Cut is finally released it would be fantastic. LA has CoP renderer and shaders incorporated already but up to DX10 only. LA DC will have DX11 support.Cromm Cruachttp://stalkermods.crommcruac.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-62185793937073445392016-06-15T13:04:50.829-07:002016-06-15T13:04:50.829-07:00Crikey!
