Yep, they didn't work for me. No matter, glasses should get here in a few days.

Sounds very very interesting!!
I'm sure i've read somewhere you can use sweet wrappers..you know which ones i mean? like ones you get in quality streets...can anyone try?

I bought some clip-on red-blue lenses for my glasses for $6 on ebay. I'm hoping to have those soon. I installed the drivers and it looks to be working in the games I play. I just need the lenses/glasses.

I've tried red/blue before, the 3d effect is neat but the color loss isn't.

I've been wondering if that superbowl/chuck colorcode 3d scheme was any better, even if I recorded the trailer, I don't have the glasses, no displays to distribute em in canada.

Has anyone tried that, how good/bad is it?

Finally received my red/blue glasses. Did a run-through on l4d, cs:s, and civ4. The 3d effect works on FPS games but it is not entirely immersive. Certain effects work perfectly in the game, such as a water fountain or when a zombie is running straight at you. Some things really don't work with anaglyph glasses, such as windows rendered in 3d and glow effects.

Cs:s gave me a headache so I only played it for a few minutes. It was far too fast paced and twitchy for me to play effectively with 3d on. Overall it looked pretty decent, but trying to get headshots with a 3d cursor and 3d target is quite difficult. Civ4 worked in 3d but since the game is mostly a top-down view, it looked very weird. I have a feeling that RTS or any sort of strategy game is not going to look good in anaglyph 3d.

Overall it works and the glasses only cost a few dollars. It is neat to play around with but I doubt I would use it extensively.
