Earlier, I experimented with reducing the contrast and subtracting a fraction of the opposite eye, but it still wouldn't turn a bad 3D monitor into a good one, and I decided to just pull it out.Дoes anyone know what the r_forceScreenWidthCentimeters variable is for? I couldnвЂ™t find it in the original Doom III cfg, it doesnвЂ™t seem to influence the stereo rendering at all. The stereoRender_deGhost variable does nothing in the shipping code. I like fully realistic separation, but that actually exceeds one platform's submission guidelines, and we have been told that most people don't really want that much separation. Next game, we will be designing for stereo from the start. If you are willing to compromise some or all of those factors, you can improve the 3D effect. For the shipping game it was important that they never show clipped geometry, never penetrate into a wall, always allow the ammo readouts to be visible, and not have the muzzle firing point be too far away from the standard position. With lots of guns and lots of animations, there isn't as much freedom to move them around as we would like. FPS guns are almost always positioned in a physically unrealistic position to maximize 2D artistic impact, which is a big problem in stereo. We struggled a lot with the gun in stereoscopic views. but if it's higher, then your poor eyes will be trying to diverge and you'll get headaches and probably hurt your eye muslces. If the on-screen gap is less than the gap between your pupils, you won't be getting the best depth you can. Your own optimal value will vary depending on the size of your monitor, your own convergence setting, and the distance between your own pupils. Checking this, I found the ideal setting for stereoRender_interOccularCentimeters to be 7.5 for me, assuming stereoRender_convergence of 20. You want the real world distance between the left and right version of that point, as measured with a ruler on your monitor, to be exactly the same as the real world distance between your pupils. You'll see two images for it without the glasses, one for the left eye and one for the right. Look at the stereo game without glasses, at some object in the distance. One other minor issue is the dusty torchlight effect can be a little annoying with the higher stereo depth, as it seems to be more in one eye than the other, but you don't need the torch that often, and when you do it's bearable. On the other hand, if the above settings make the gun too weird for you, try lower convergences and/or lower interoccular settings.

You can try higher if you don't mind the awkward looking weapon.

The settings I have above mean the bullets go just a touch above where the laser sight hits, which I find acceptable.Дepending on how much you can tolerate the view of the gun, this places a limit on the convergence. Also you can't move the gun too far or you'll see into your hollow arms. The laser sight out of the gun moves, but the actual vector the bullet moves doesn't, so there's only so far you can shift the gun before the it becomes confusing and you start missing the things you're shooting at. To fix this the g_gun commands move the gun to a better position.

A problem then arises with the weapons, they take up too much screen and the view from each eye is too different, so it looks bad. Also be warned that the g_gun variables are listed as cheats, so you might have to remove them for multiplayer, I don't know.ДЄnyhow, the point of the above is that it increases the convergence and stereo depth quite a bit. You can add a seta com_allowconsole '1' in there too if you like, but be warned this disables achievements on Steam.
