Orbiter Screenshot Thread

[Messierhunter]

These are crosseye stereogram screenshots. Cross your eyes slightly (as if trying to look at an object just in front of your nose) until the images overlap to see these in 3D!

Look nice.
To get the effect put a finger about 30 cm in front your eyes and facing to photo.After you got a middle image focus on photo and remove finger.
Later you could with hand cover left and right image to get a holographic effect.

My eyes can't see it. I can only get 3 blurry pictures. :'-(

You're probably very close to seeing it then. If you do it right there should be 3 images and the middle one will be in 3D. If it's blurry try sitting back further from your monitor - that might make it a bit easier to focus your eyes properly.

Thanks. I think I got it to work, for a few seconds. Hurts my eyes and brain too much. I got the best result by covering the right picture from my right eye and left from the left.

Those are amazing pics? How did you take those stereo images?

I saw it in 3D by crossing my eyes. I have some practice from looking at stereo images on wikipedia. I remember how excited I was when I saw a stereo image in 3D for the first time.

Cross-eye is much more easier than parallel eye.

I haven't heard of the trick with the finger before. That's a cool trick. It makes it very easy to do.

HOLY...SOMETHING! I saw it! NEAT Effect! I used the crosseyed technique where I crossed my eyes fairly close to the screen, then "focused" on the middle image.

I use LCD shutter glasses to see orbiter in 3D. Even though it's not perfect (some issues with using a 2d hud in a 3d world) it's much more immersive. I took some 3D screenshots using the above drivers and resaved them as standard jpgs. Glad you like the results.

The effect is amazing. You notice detail you never see otherwise. You can "examine" the aircraft in detail. Maybe its because the brain is getting twice as much image information?
The second pair especially has this really cool effect.

On a totally clear, early May day. Delta Glider 5 rolls slowly to pad 39-B to begin a weeks preperation for DG-13.
DG-13 will land lunar expedition 9

Although simple, the angle and lighting are just perfect.

Skylab in 3D: I paused Orbiter, made the screenshot, moved the camera (in GROUND mode, "target lock" off, I did not use the mouse but changed the numbers and clicked apply) so that the station moves 1 cm or 2,95% of the screen, made again a screenshot. So it's also possible without special drivers (but much easier with them).

Your technique does work, but I think you had the left-right eye images reversed. For cross-eye viewing the left eye's image must be on the right and vice versa. It looked odd to me so I swapped them and it seemed to work much better, see if it works better for you as well.

 

[astrosammy]

OOPS You're right. Works better now.

 

[silent_protagonist]

Oh cool, I finally got the cross-eye thing to work. Those pics are amazing!

 

[Capt. Speirs]

I was very skeptical and thought you guys are nuts, then it happened, wow, what an effect. That is so cool.:speakcool:

Yea, it looked really weird and not 3D at all when I looked at at the first image.

This time it looks great.

Working on KLAS, still need to ad photo real runway textures and a few more buildings.
