- CPU side, two set of image primitives calculations (not equivalent to exactly twice the used computing power for 2D, as the relative positions for all objects in each image are the same)

- GPU side, two full rendering of a complete image at selected resolution

Short of this, there will never be a "real" 3D rendering of SoW...This really means that SoW would need to have a very special "3D" computing as well as video mode, and the GPU will need a no less special driver, and will need a very powerful unit (the GPU does need to render at twice the usually 60 Hz selected scan rate, so 120 Hz and even with the most performing unit on the market you will need to accept a relatively medium resolution) and the suitable display/glasses set or equivalent device...

unless... (and this just a thought) manufacturers hit on hooking the shutter glasses up to two (of the same) vga cards simultaneously. ie one card for the right eye/ shutter and another of the same card for the left eye/ shutter

By the way, here's Oleg's reply about this issue:

Quote:
...If the game is completely 3D then the manufacturer of the video card should switch the render for the right and left eye for their LCD shutter glasses this is all inside the driver of the card for the glassess. This even possible for just 2D images with the special technology... (would be pseudo stereo then, but looks also good). ...


Furthermore, he says that they don't plan anything more onthis subject and if there are any problems, then they will take a look at this.

I'm really thrilled of the possibility to play this game in 3D and really hope there won't be any problems!

Once again, thanks Oleg for your reply.

Which is what we have been telling you for the past 2/3 pages

Indeed Alpha, but isn't is better to hear it from Oleg who really knows everything about BOB?

Now we have to wait and see how this is going to work and if there will be any unanticipated problems (Oleg himself cannot guarantee there won't be any).

Thanks again!

With posts like this your high post count starts to make sense.

Is a high post count important then ?

BoB seems quite acceptable in this forum.
