FFXIV 3D

[Zeno-Ira]

Anyone experience with FFXIV in 3D? Does it support it already?
If so, what system do you use for it or what do you recommend buying?

It is not supported natively. But can be "Fudged" using any 3D Hardware Rendering Method. But the UI isn't really designed for 3D play so you might hurt your eyes using it too long.

Isn't this pretty much what happens with anything in 3D? xD

Effects some worse than others, for example with 3DS I feel crosseyed after awhile lol.

Thankfully there's a slider for that. I never really looked at 3D much since I wear glasses IRL so yeah, putting another pair on these would be annoying.

ive played using nvidia's 3d vision on a zalman 22 inch @1680x1050 monitor which is interlaced sys(phenom II 940@3.4 4gigs ddr2 gtx285) like Cairdeas said its not native but nvidia supports it and it works fairly well i got anywhere from 20-30 in town to 30-50 fps outside of town. just upgraded not to long ago to a radeon 5870 cant use nvidia's setup but now im using Tridef with same monitor and projector at times the 3D effect is good but not as good as nvidia's but i think thats b/c ive no clue how to fix the background doubling .. tried everything -.- anyways with the radeon using Tridef on i see 25-35 in town to 40-60 frames outside of town using ether interlaced(zalman) or checkerboard(projector) i havent had the chance to really tri out iz3d's drivers yet hope that helps.

holy one huge incomplete sentence batman. lol.

I tried it in 3D using the red/blue glasses approach which you could poor-man rig up most likely just to see how it looks. It looked pretty cool. If I felt like investing in a 3D display with the usual glasses I think it would be a nice addition to the game. I think you can use it on other games too. It's worth looking into.

I've played in 3d with no problems, looks great. I'm using the cheesy 3d also with the crappy blue/red glasses and it still looks pretty cool. Using a single GTX 460 atm.

Goldfighter, how are you using 3d with blue and red glasses? Do you have a special monitor?

Negative, for Stereoscopic 3d (believe that's the name) you do not need a 3d monitor.

As for how I'm using it, there's an option for it in the 3d settings of the Nvidia control panel.
