Quake in 3D

[Seven]

Hello,

first of all, this has probably already been posted, but for those of you (like myself) who didnt know:

You can play Quake in 3D

All you need are anaglyph stereo glasses. It even doesnt matter wich one. All those work:
- red/blue
- red/cyan
- red/green
Example for red/cyan:


Use the according cvar to activate the effect.
Then you can finetune the effect to match your eyes.

These are the cvars:

r_stereo_angle is "0" ["0"] separation angle of eyes (makes the views look different directions, as an example, 90 gives a 90 degree separation where the views are 45 degrees left and 45 degrees right)
r_stereo_redblue is "0" ["0"] red/blue anaglyph stereo glasses (note: most of these glasses are actually red/cyan, try that one too)
r_stereo_redcyan is "0" ["0"] red/cyan anaglyph stereo glasses, the kind given away at drive-in movies like Creature From The Black Lagoon In 3D
r_stereo_redgreen is "0" ["0"] red/green anaglyph stereo glasses (for those who don't mind yellow)
r_stereo_separation is "4" ["4"] separation distance of eyes in the world (negative values are only useful for cross-eyed viewing)
r_stereo_sidebyside is "0" ["0"] side by side views for those who can't afford glasses but can afford eye strain (note: use a negative r_stereo_separation if you want cross-eyed viewing)

Check this site for the complete overview.
(Many Thanks to Error for this Wiki page. It helped me many times.)


I made some screenshots.
If you have anaglyph glasses near your hand, watch them with it to get the feeling (I used red/cyan).
Without anaglyph stereo glasses you might hurt your eyes

Have fun with it and be sure to have an eye specialist / oculist near your home.

Thanks for posting this Seven. Does this apply for Non DP users as well?

Kind regards

I am sorry I forgot to mention it.

My above description is for DarkPlaces.
Also Fitzquake has an implemented function, but with less adjustment possibilities I guess.
And there is a own GLQuake version, wich I do not recommend.
I am not aware of others. But that doesnt mean, there are no other of course.
As you know, I use mostly DP.

Kind Regards,
Seven

Just purchased some 3D glasses off Ebay, im checkn this out A.S.A.P.

For those of you who are interested to test it, you dont need to buy stereo anaglyph glasses.

Your optometrist / optician will give the paper version for free to you.
Or look inside your childrens DVD boxes. Some include paper glasses

But on the other hand, glasses frames made of plastik are of course better...

Kind Regrads,
Seven

Does it change the performance? I mean FPS loss etc...

lol I made homemade versions of these a year or so ago. Looks awful, and I mean that!. Got a copy of Shrek 3D; not the newest but the direct to DVD released shortly after the first movie.
Went to a craft store bought a couple sheets of the transparent film of red and blue. Cut out a few rectangles and got tape out. Taped the cut out sheets and taped above the eyebrow and on the cheekbone.

Worked but you can imagine how me and my oldest daughter looked...

@ grave_digga

yes it does impact your fps, but you shouldnt care about it.
You should care about your eye-health

Just got my 3D glasses today!

3D Quake, It's pretty neat, the colors get kind of trashed but it does give a 3D feeling! Cool stuff!

[Mindf!3ldzX]

That isn't too new, I remember Yugo2hecK or JackHole telling me about it looooong ago (and there was a client that had it,along with stencil quake and ascii quake). It however, is new to the newer engine support I'm seeing.

[Lerster]

far too expensive:[/B]

I played something in the arcade a long ass time ago where you wore some big dome of a mask, and you where like right in the game and it was a fps too... just can't remember what the hell the game was called.

Be nice when this stuff is out i know it probably already is, as i know my card and lotsa cards support these Glasses thing, which i ain't even bothered looking at the price for as i'm too broke.

Would love to try the 3d quake thing, but meh i think i may of tried it once b4 i just can't remember.

Cool post though. ^_^

Quake is 3D already. I don't get this whole glasses craze. The 3D glasses thing is very old, it was already in comics like Yps and Bussi B�r in the 70s or early 80s when I was a kid. They had these glasses already and some of the comics were in green and red. I always thought it was stupid.

I'm not gonna wear these paper glasses in the cinema. That is maybe cool in Stupidworld, but not in my world.

Imagine sitting in the bus with PSPquake and paper 3D glasses. OMG.

Mass hypnosis. They are selling you old shit that failed back then and claiming it is the new cool thing.
