In recent months / years, Nvidia has been pulling back support for many of the "high-end" gaming features exposed through OpenGL, and there has been no fixes or updates... till yesterday. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...item&px=OTE5Mg Phoronix reports that Nvidia issued a binary update for Linux in which the only change listed... was for Nvidia 3D Vision under OpenGL. Typically Nvidia only does feature changes like this when a major corporation tells Nvidia to do so. E.G. Nvidia pretty much only supports SLI under their Linux driver because HP wanted it. So somebody out there is leaning on Nvidia to get the 3D Vision support for OpenGL into some kind of shape. Does this mean CoH will benefit from Nvidia dedicating resources to Steroescopic 3D and OpenGL? Too early to tell, but at least it's a step in the right direction. |
I certainly don't understand why I can't use my 3d in COH but games like "Dark Age of Camelot" has it!??!?!
I wish this game allowed it. It would really change the experience for me. All of my old games I have pulled out to play in 3d and it really makes play through much more replay fun.

It is quite a necro-past. Perhaps it will be allowed to stand.|

As before, you'll need to take support up with your graphics card vendor.
