I am using Wicked3D Eyescream shutterglasses (no longer sold, but still decent drivers support) along with a
Voodoo5 5500 on a Athlon@1050.

problem sounds familiar with one i had in Glide mode before i used the Glide wrapper used to change mirror rate
and such. Did you try running GPL in 640*480?

If you have performance troubles, try switching off all overlays (speedometer and such).

Colin McRae Rally: Excellent. Love it with resolution override (a neat feature provided by the stereovision
drivers) in 1280*1024 with AA. The uniform brightness of the wilderness one is driving through (no dark tarmac or
white lines) minimizes ghosting. The cars look particulary gorgeous.
NFS: Porsche Unleashed: The best of them all. Jaw-dropping.
NFS4: No-go.
Re-volt: No-go. Supposed to be working with the Relevator glasses.
GP3: Would be good....BUT: The mirros are drawn in an utterly wrong place and orientation. Anyone found a way to
turn them off entirely?
F1-2000: very good once you get rid of the mirrors (who needs them in offline play, anyway?).
DTR/DTRSC: work perfectly well, but dirt ovals arent my cup of tea.

I just recently bought ELSA Revelator 3D glasses and are looking
for good 3D racing sims.
I have tried and found:
Rally Championship 2000 - very good.
GPL produces strange tires and cockpit.
SCGT Ok but not a major enhancement over 2D
Anyone have experience with these or other games or necessary HW
to get decent FPS rate?

I'm running stereoscopic with AsusV7700 Deluxe, Celeron 2 633 oc'ed to
952MHz,
384Meg RAM:
- Nascar Heat: excellent, good depth perception, all 3d objects i.e. no
artifacts.
- GPL: when run in D3D stereo mirrors have serious problem with solid black
cross hatch
rendering mirrors unusable. Welcome any help to fix. May need a
patch.
- Rally Championship: Excellent outdoor scenery rendered. All 3D objects ie
no artifacts.
Excellent depth design/perception.
Cockpit design are sloppy and
does not show good stereoscopic effect.
ie. no separation.
- NFS Porshe unleashed: beautiful scenery but not as well integrated as RC.
IMO. However
I only looked at the demo of
Normandie track.
-Midtown Madness 2: Very good stereo. Metro scene. A drastic change from RC
and
NFS PU scenicroute. No artifacts. Fun.
-F1 2000: I can't get rid of the fishnet fence texture "swimming" cause
eye-ache. Scenery
is mediocre at best. Car shape are all out of whack. Poor
stereo effect.
Hope this helps.
