3d and eq2?

[PakMonyet]

<p>Hey There All,</p><p>Well, I stopped by a computer store to look at their demo of the nVidia 3-D vision set-up.  Here's the link:</p><p><a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/GeForce_3D_Vision_Main.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.nvidia.com/object/GeForc...ision_Main.html</a></p><p>The store had set up demo using Lara Croft/Tombraider for the pc.  All I can say is "WOA"....this technology is SOOOO COOOOL!!</p><p>....and now my questions:</p><p>1.  Will Everquest2 work with this set-up?</p><p>2.  Has anyone tried this 3D set-up with EQ2 and can share their experience?</p><p>3.  Any EQ2 Developer's got anything to share regarding 3D and EQ2?</p>

<p>As for 1 and 3, I can certainly say there hasn't been any word in regards to EQ2 supporting this. Though I'd be lying if I said it wasn't some great technology I'd like to see EQ2 support.</p><p>Some games, however, seem to go well with the 3D vision with little to no modifications. So I'm curious as well to see if anyone has tried.</p>

<p>Right now, EQ2 will not even you use your current graphics card for rendering.  The CPU is used to render shadows and lighting.  There is code out on the test server to start using the GPU as opposed to the CPU for some of the graphical processing, but until Sony has a true graphics engine that uses the GPU for all calculations, the 3D will not be available.</p><p>WOW is enabled for the 3D system, but then again who wants to look at a pixelated orc's rear in 3D?  <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>sigh.....</p><p>This technology is the next INCREDIBLE step in immersive gaming.  Come on SoE.....please oh please implement "something" to make this technology a reality for EQ2!</p>

<p>I'm certainly going to inquire with a few EQ2 folks and see if they've had any experience with this technology. Has anyone else had some time with it?</p>

<p>Anyone?</p>
