Stereo 3D TRIDEF with ENB (Catalyst HD7970)
Posted: 17 Dec 2012, 07:04
Yesterday i`m founded that possible to use Tridef stereo mode with ENB in Skyrim.
But exist limitation. Normal stereo 3d in Skyrim possible only when you disabled Tridef Power3D and disabled 3d texture copy.
But ENB work only if you enable Power3D that not good. Becouse Power3D also has problems correctly rendering volumetric effects like smoke and rain in 3D scenes.
Some details about Tridef Power 3D:
Power3D is not the same as 2D to 3D conversion, as many people seem to believe. We are not operating solely on the rendered image with no information about the context or depth. Depth information is extracted from the z buffer and used to build a depth map, similar to the way games like Crysis 2 or Sniper Elite v2 handle their own integrated 3D.
The advantage of this is we can ignore all aspects of the scenes underlying rendering. For example, we don’t have to worry about shadows or lighting, because they are cast on the objects and we know the depth of the object. Things like crosshairs in P3D are generally rendered at object depth, based on the depth map, so the crosshair will match the depth of what you are aiming at.
The final image is generated by combining the depth map to the original image, like many 2D to 3D conversion algorithms (note that the way the depth map is generated is the key difference). Because there is only one view of the image, sometimes there is visual distortion around the edges of an object that is at a significantly different depth than the scene behind it.
In normal 3D mode, the frame rates of most games will decrease by 50% compared to 2D mode. With Power 3D turned on, the performance will often be much closer to the 2D game performance.
3D Texture Copy allows the user to switch between different methods of passing 3D textures around the system to assess the impact on performance.
How to launch.
Just install latest ENB injector version. Launch injector first then launch Tridef Ignition (with Skyrim profile). After game starts press numpad 0 and navigating in Tridef OSD to enable Power3D. Be carefull some visuals not dispalyed in P3d mode
