Hope Oleg reads this far...

Anyway, Oleg i know 3D vision is not going to be in BOB, but are there any plans to have it in the future?

has anyone tried 3D vision in a flightsim and how did it look and feel?

furbs, funny you should mention that, i just got off youtube after discovering some AMAZING fsx 3d vids, lemme find em again...

right here they are:

3 or 4 others by the same guy, its about a new ground texture addon called orbx.

to some it up in the words of the goons, "yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!?"

Damn UMG.

Is there any way to fool youtube?

No, it doesn't play the video at all.

Just a small point about the use of swastikas..

As a symbol it's only completley banned in Germany and Russia.(with a few religious exceptions)

The problem arises because all computer games (regardless of age rating) are classified as 'Toys' for children and many countries will not allow swastikas in them because of that reason.

If it's in a film then that is classed as Art and is allowed.

Hmm, 3D flight simming. That's certainly something I'd give a try!

Because your natural 3d vision only works well for ~0-50m in front of you, flight
sims are probably the worst place to use 3d as most of the action is more
than 50m away. That said, it does enhance the difference between the
cockpit and the outside world more.

ed: after a little googling, it turns out that the absolute natural limit for depth
perception is about 400m, but on a TV screen, the limit is much lower due to
the resolution limiting the size of binocular differences.
100m limit might be closer to the mark.
