The Cave
This game runs almost perfect in 3D, so... more than a fix it's an improvement. Game its really great and fun.
Improvement:
- Pop-up HUD (character selection and subtitles), now more confortable. It's really anoying to see HUD in the middle of the scene in this kind of games.
- Text over Items now a little deeper and remove some white flame.
Instructions:
- Extract the .zip content where cave.exe is.
- Disable shadows in-game options (tbh don't add to much to game)
- Press "P" to suggested convergence value
Don't use FXAA, only SMAA......FXAA blur the image to much in this game.

Borderlands 2 3D Vision Patch New Version
06/19
Small improvements to no crosshair version.
NEW VERSION
See top video for features. If you find any issues with new patch please leave a comment below. If interested in my thoughts on game / Optimizations / 2D/3D review check my blog @ http://ramblingsofa3dgamer.blogspot.com/2013/04/borderlands-2.html
Custom Hud Depth
Adjust your depth/convergence settings then using F1-F6. Find which hud suits you. Regardless of which you chose holding right click will force max Hud depth till released then will revert back to your choice.
F1: Max Depth Hud
F2-F6: Custom Hud Depth settings.
Gunsights
Hold down right mouse click and adjust convergence till you are happy with gunsights then click F7.
Gunzerker
Playing as Gunzerker is not recommended with patch. He is playable but his "Gunzerking" conflicts with gunsights.
THIS IS IMPORTANT PLEASE READ INSTALLATION IN FULL
-You must use Alice Madness Returns Profile!(Nvidia assigned the wrong profile to game)
Use nvidia inspector to do this. Open nvidia inspector. Click wrench/screwdriver icon. Select Borderlands 2 in drop down. Remove Borderlands 2.exe. Save. Select Alice Madness Returns. Add Borderlands2.exe[..\steam\steamapps\common\Borderlands 2\Binaries\Win32]. Save. Play.
Sli Compatibility Bits: 0x02406405 ::: AntiAliasing Compatibility 0x200012C1
-Field of Vision[FOV]
If you are adjusting from the default in game FOV. It is recommended not to exceed 95 FOV.

No Crosshair Version[Experimental]
You may have to tweak convergence to get this to work. Crosshair is removed but will reappear when right click is held down (for scoped weapons and rifles). Long story short I seperated the crosshair out as much as possible then punched a whole in the middle of hud screen. It works pretty well but it may cause certain hud elements to not show correctly when they are in same position that crosshair was in. I will not be offering additional support on this method.

If you crash on game launcher
Right click on the game --> properties --> define Startup Commands.
Add the start command -NoLauncher , into the Steam startup commands.

Quantum Conundrum Updated
[Video was recorded before Depth of field removal]
Update: Went through and fixed most of remaining issues/added hud depth options. If interested in game I wrote a short review on my blog and discuss optimizations @ Ramblingsofa3DGamer.blogspot.com
Crosshair (I made it so it doesn't show when not looking at a clickable object. Pretty neat)
Effects
Removed:
Shadows(They are minimal in game since no characters. But it does cause some rooms to be brighter then intended)
Depth of Field
Issues Remaining:
Minor
If you turn 3D Vision off or start game with it off hud will disappear. Turn on and it will show again.
Optional:
Press F2: Default Hud depth
Press F3: Increase Hud depth[My preferred]
Press F4: Increase Hud depth further
INSTALLATION:
REQUIRED
Start game without patch installed. Find your optimal settings. Then Save and exit.
Go to... Documents\My Games\UnrealEngine3\TryGame\Config\Tryengine.ini
change from
AllowNvidiaStereo3d=False
to
AllowNvidiaStereo3d=True
INSTALL TO...\Steam\steamapps\common\Quantum Conundrum\Binaries\Win32

Unreal Tournament III
Unreal Tournament III - by mana84
Updated on April 10, 2013:
-Shadows fixed
-Health bars on nameplates fixed
notice: the game profile uses nvidia's 3d sight to change dinamically this game's crosshair depth, but it has some bugs. If you want to try my static crosshair, press '8' and disable nvidia's sight (Ctrl+F12 by default).
Description:
-Snow covers fixed
-Water shaders and water effects like little waterfalls are fixed
-Shadows are fixed
-Vehicle crosshairs, sniper scope and enemies nameplates are fixed
-Fog effects are fixed
-Added a static crosshair preset that solves the occasional crosshair at screen depth issue (i.e. while loading missiles)
-'9' and '0' keys switch preset for Hud 3d/2d
-'7' and '8' keys switch crosshair dynamic/static
If you want to modify hud depth, change the value of Const1 in the preset you like. If you need a floating point to hex converter you look at this: http://gregstoll.dyndns.org/~gregstoll/floattohex/
How to install:
Please, before using this fix read this warning.
Download:
UT3_fix.zip
extract "UT3_fix.zip" archive in the "../Unreal Tournament 3/Binaries/" folder of the game, required d3d9.dll is already included in the archive. If you have steam (like me) the path is "../Steam/SteamApps/common/Unreal Tournament 3/Binaries/".
Please, before using this fix read this warning.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2[DX9]
Explanation: This game is rated 3D vision ready and I saw a sale so bought for $5.00. I found it to be unplayable unless playing WAY below my desired settings. The dynamic crosshair/gunsights break with convergence at/exceeding 2D. Basically everything needs to be in depth for it to work. Then I went to find a way to remove crosshair and none exist. I'm not sure if its always been like this but anywho decided to patch it. Basically this patch will give a minimal hud for a much more cinematic/realistic experience without all the 2D hud messages every 10 seconds. If you go to play it and its fine for you just ignore this. Everyone's different but I find it to be too flat to get to work. If you're interested in my optimizations/review/comparison check my blog post HERE
Changes:
Gun crosshair is removed.
Seperate depth/convergence setting for Gun Sights[Hold right mouse button and find desired setting and click F7]
Optional:
Gun crosshair removal toggle: Press O to turn crosshair on. Press O again to turn crosshair off.
Cinematic mode. Disables a lot of non vital HUD text. Just click Y once ingame to enable. If you dont like click Y again to disable.[Reload warning/Ammo Counter/Subtitles/etc]
Issues Remaining:
Hud has issues on setup screen/Sniper rifle crosshair gone. Press Y\O to fix.
Required:
Latest Patch update: v795745
Force DX9 GUIDE HERE
Settings: Go into game then. Options->Settings->GamePlay-> UNCHECK Zoom toggle
Install to.../Battlefield Bad Company 2/
