3D Problems

[robinson crusoe]

I have an LG plasma TV, R9 290 Tri-x graphics cards. I played games like Crysis, Tomb Raider, Hitman in 3D without any problems with my setup.

When I'm trying to play Deus Ex, starting the game, TV automatically switches to 3D mode(as it should normally). But I'm getting stuck at a blank screen. When I press any button I hear the sound of the menu, so the game is running in the background.

I can't get rid of that screen with CTRL+ALT+DEL, or ALT+F4 or ESC or the Windows key. So I restart the computer.

I read some comments saying the solution is to change the refresh rate of the screen to 120 hz but I guess I don't have such option on my TV.

When I start the game in 2D starts and plays without any problems. If I try to switch to 3D in the game options, same thing, screen turns to blank.

I checked, my TV's 3D works fine. Specs shows that it's an active 3D TV.

Any help is appreciated. There's not too many chances to use the 3D on my TV.

No real reason why this wouldn't work in 3D unless you don't have an nvidia card. Some games were scripted to run in 3D out of the box regardless of GPU manufacturer. No experience with the R9 290 but there is 3D support for the director's cut and it's automatically detected in 3D Fix Manager. There is 3D support for a good number of games now, but on a plasma you'll be locked to 60Hz regardless of what tricks the tv uses to show 120Hz. 120Hz is only for 3D monitors. You may have more luck using Tri-def drivers which can be found freely on the nvidia 3D vision discord, supposedly they can run games in 3D beyond the limitations of nvidia 3D TV Play (720p/60Hz or 1080p/24Hz) but there aren't as many game profiles.

The discord for Nvidia 3D Vision is: https://discord.gg/tXHYhNK

The link for the game in 3D over at helix mod (nvidia video card) is: http://helixmod.blogspot.com/2016/08/deus-ex-human-revolution-directors-cut.html

Once they figure out the iZ3D driver and how it engages 3D, using an AMD GPU seems like it should be less of an issue but that is likely a few years away.

Forgot to say - if you buy an nvidia GPU(avoid the new 3000 series as not compatible yet!) your 3D plasma will become vastly more capable of playing hundreds and hundreds of games in 3D, albeit at 720p/60Hz due to nvidia's limitation. There are shaderhackers always working on bringing new games to the stereoscopic 3D world. If you check the discord I linked, there's a screenshot section there. Enjoy.
