It didn’t matter.įor the first time, I was able to understand how lucky we are to have two eyes. I remember the glasses looking very bulky. I bought my first gaming 3D device sometime around 2000. If you have had the chance to see how any game looks in real 3D, I’m pretty sure you will find really difficult… no, impossible to go back to playing in flat 2D (not even if that 2D is 4K, 8K or even 180K). Why am I sad/dazed because of NVidia’s decision to stop the support for 3D Vision
The previously commercial software will be offered for free with the release of driver 418 in Apirl 2019.  The 3D Vision Video Player software remains available as a standalone download throughout 2019. Nvidia plans to include the 3D gaming software 3DTV Play with the driver release and to remove the standalone download of 3DTV from its website following the release. 3DTV is used for 3D gaming on 3D capable TVs. The company will support release 418 until April 2020 but only to address critical driver issues according to a new support page on the official Nvidia support website. Future drivers, release 419 and newer, won't release the technology and software anymore.
Release 418 drivers will be the last release to support 3D Vision. Nvidia plans to release the last version of the GeForce Game Reader driver 418 in April 2019.
