    Tutorial for how to run Open Rails, in 3D!!!!

    YES You read right, OR IN THREE DIMENSION MODE! First up, install the Anaglyph driver from IZ3D http://www.iz3d.com/ . You want the free ANAGLYPH one. Please note you need either black/white, yellow/blue, or red/blue glasses for this to work, and if you don't have some? I recommend these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Red-Blue-3D-...item519c07db3d They're cheap, and they fit over eyeglasses and are VERY comfortable. The kind I use myself.

    Next, follow the installation steps for IZ3D Driver, and after those are done, run IZ3D, and select 'Enable Stereo' or 'Enable Stereo by Hot-key'. I prefer the former. After which, go into OR, using the SMALL MENU. The full sized 'MSTS Style' menu WILL CRASH with IZ3D for whatever stupid reason... After which? Put your glasses on, follow the onscreen tutorial for setting up the 3D to your liking, and ENJOY!

    Edit: Thanks for move... No idea why I posted that in the MSTS section. :/ Over-excited I guess. Sorry!

    Komachi, can you please clarify. Is OR designed to show a 3D picture when these procedures are followed or does IZ3D convert the OR 2D image to 3D?

      I'm betting the difference is how the MENU windows are rendered. The traditional SMALL MENU is a standard Windows OS window, while the MSTS style window is something completely different.

        IZ3D is what makes it 3D, not OR. OR has no 3D Capability, where as IZ3D is a 3D converter basically.

          I think I'll stick to the basic 2D. Until they actually make us a very great "holodeck" hardware, I think I'll stay away from these so called "3D" things. They don't really do anything to me, but make my eyes all teary and eventually give me a headache(even with today's stuff). So I don't really care for anything 3D like those.
