Hey, thanks alot for the list! Awesome work. Can you try out the game Penumbra: Overture or Penumbra: Black Plague? It's very immersive games! Especially combined with the novint falcon hapt-x controller. Thank you..! :cool:

I'm a new user of the vr920. I don't understand how to use these parameters. many of the games are not on the vuzix supported title list in the iMonitor application. So, just how exactly do I use this information?

Maybe some kind soul could provide a step by step guide on how to provide support for games that Vuzix does not "officially" support.

thanks for understanding.

Great work, man - thx a lot!

Necrovision works with Painkiller settings (same engine) and Cryostasis works with Silent Hill: Homecoming settings (got some minor Issues like flickering textures) .

Maybe you'd like to add them to the list?:)

After updating to the latest nvidia drivers cod 5 works now. But it is imposible to aim down the sigt because u start seeing the weapon doubled. And the objects that are far are not 3d at all. It is 3d just with closer objects. There is a big difference with the iz3d drivers. Not only for this game but for others too. even when u look on the normal screen u can see diferences between iz3d and vuzix. It is like is a different type of 3d

Could be. But I Played online with stereo on 2 weeks ago with my homeade cfg and worked well until I got kicked for multiple direct3d. But now it doesn't even enter the game i get directlly a window's error.

It is not really important though because i cannot play online until the pb and 3d problem is cleared. I hope it will be cleared but I don't see any interest on either side :(.

Maybe its punkbuster.If you enabled punkbuster to play online vusix driver wont work (cod5 use pb for single/coop too).Punkbuster dont allow vusix like wrappers since cheaters use the same technique to see through walls.I played a coop lan game with a friend and i was using the vr920 but i had to disable punkbuster.

Call of duty world at war keeps crashing for me. It works sometimes in single player but in multiplayer never. But i think it is because I updated the video drivers to 181.20 because not even the old config I made works now.

Even if its the same engine sometime it use different FOV and POV you have to tweak alot to get the same results ..sometime they modify the engine so much that it dosent work like the others (Bioshock have modded shader code).Pariah use the ut2004 engine but there is a bug with shadows that you wont get in ut2004.Call of Juarez never seemed to work ..until i tweaked again and again to find that below the setting shown above everything gets darker and darker as you increase the separation.Test all methods with settings from 5.0(even 50.0 on some engines) to 0.000005 ..most of the time i test with 2 values 2.0 and 0.5 as i start to get results i tweak.So far i love the vuzix wrapper before i got my vr920 i was thinking of getting the iz3d driver but im fine with vuzix+nvidia for now 95% if the games i really want works ..if v2.5 fix bioshock then 100% of the games i want in 3d will work ;)

joker18 — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 07:37:11 GMT

thx for these cfg.
They helped me understanding the system
From what I saw till now it is all about the engine on which the game is made. For example legendary is on a unreal engine and works with the settings of medal of honor airborne just needs a little adjustments.
I managed to get working all the games I have on my hard drive so i think vuzix driver is a good one. It would just need some ingame depth and separation adjustments. It would be easier to setup a game than exiting changing values and getting back .
