3d rFactor

FerrariMan96 · Jul 27, 2010

Hi Guys!

Does anyone know how to run rfactor (or GTR Evo) in 3D (anaglyphic - as in red/cyan glasses)?

I have seen a few vids on Youtube and would like to know how it's done.

Is there a mod? I downloaded IZ3D's free anaglyphic driver but (at least in GTR Evo) there is a HUGE amount of ghosting.

Thanks to anyone who can help!

Does rFactor support 3D?

Hehe just tried it! Works well in Evo, all you need to do is set it up:
To make close things don't look doubled you need to press shift + numpad -
If the far away things look doubled you need to press numpad -, you need to set it up so they only look doubled in a comfortable level.
Should be the same in all games, including rFactor.
I have to say it's pretty impressive (especially the cockpit), it ruins colours however, and gives you a headache after a while, and I still see things in double LOL. Cool for trying, but for long term gaming I don't recommend it.

i know that is possible also using the stereoscopic 3d vision..... you need a 120Hz monitor and the special glasses that you use also in the cinema!!!

Did a bit of research:
The red/blue glasses, which I have, are the worst

The red/cyan glasses are better (as they have the RGB colors), but still they have 30% color loss
The green/magenta glasses only have 10% color loss, somebody even said it's better than nVidia's 3D
The (amber)yellow/blue (or color code) glasses are said to be even better, but not that common.

iz3d can do all of them

Here is a little guide:

How to change custom color in iz3d driver can be found here:

Edit: I'll go to town and get my new yellow/blue glasses tomorrow I think, they're very cheap

BTW forgot to post this, but here it is an example from Race On, how does the red/cyan look like (should be similar in rF too)

anyone tried with the new 3d glasses that they give you when you see 3d movies nowadays? I have bout 4 pairs of them lying around (they charge you like 4 bucks on your ticket just for the damn glasses, return after the movie my ass!) and ive been wondering if it'd work with rfactor. Im pretty sure my gfx card is able to run 3d just never had the equipment =P

If you're talking about the polarized glasses, they won't work. I'm not sure what the exact reason is, but they're incompatible with most TVs and monitors.

I think nVidia have drivers which enable this as well out now too, don't they? The red/cyan filter kind. Although that probably only works on nVidia graphics cards. And what's more, Trackmania United and Minecraft support the effect natively.
