I am now intersted to know if the Sharp3D screen supports DirectX9? Or directX9 supports this screen? I looked in their website and sent them an email but got no reply yet. So how do you program to this screen? Is there a special resolution you need to render to? Or does directX recognize the 3D mode of the screen as to seperate screen devices? I dont have this screen, so I am just curios about it. Thanks in advance.

Of the very few 3D monitors I've worked with, OpenGL is supported by simply alternating the render buffer between GL_BACK_LEFT and GL_BACK_RIGHT with glDrawBuffer, then calling SwapBuffers to display the frame.

I'm sure DirectX probably has something similar, but since I haven't touched D3D since DX5, I'm not going to be of much help. :)

Ok, but what about the retro support?
I mean, how does older games like quake2 and battlefield1942 and many other can be seen as Real 3D in this screen?
