Hi,
I want to share an application with you I’ve been working on for a while. It’s called "3D Fix Manager" and the reason I developed it is that I wanted to have a more comfortable way for installing 3D Vision Fixes and an easier method for editing hotkeys in order to change 3D separation / convergence settings.
[u]So which features does 3D Fix Manager provide?[/u]
[list]
[.]Download, install and uninstall 3D Vision fixes with only 1 click[/.]
[.]Clear GUI[/.]
[.]Comfortable hotkey editing for changing 3d separation / convergence in game[/.]
[.]Automatic detection of installed 3D Vision games[/.]
[.]Start games directly in 3D Fix Manager[/.]
[.]Auto backups of hotkeys / ini files[/.]
[.]Auto enable Nvidia Stereosopic 3D when starting a game[/.]
[.]Auto installation of 3D profiles with Nvidia Profile Inspector when starting a game[/.]
[.]Auto optimization of ini / cfg files for stereo 3D mode[/.]
[.]Save and restore your stereoscopic settings of Nvidia Control Panel[/.]
[.]Simple activation of Compatibility Mode (also known as Fake 3D) for any DirectX 11 game [/.]
[.]RivaTuner Statistics Server support. Dynamically load or close RTSS when launching a game for improving performance in Stereo 3D[/.]
[.]Auto disable 3D Fixes when playing in 2D mode[/.]
[.]Auto update for new fixes[/.]
[.]Auto update for new program versions[/.]
[/list]
Currently more than 600 fixes from [url]http://helixmod.blogspot.com[/url] are supported by 3D Fix Manager. This includes Helix Mod (DirectX 9), 3dMigoto (DirectX 11) and OpenGL 3D Vision Wrapper.
[u]Limitations:[/u]
[list]
[.]Hotkey editing is only available for Helix Mod and 3dMigoto fixes at the moment. Hotkey support for OpenGL fixes may come in the future.[/.]

[u]Download:[/u]
[list]
[.]You can download the application here: (Version 1.27) [url]http://fixmanager.rentus.de/download.php[/url][/.]
[.]Older versions of the application can be downloaded from helixmod-website: [url]http://helixmod.blogspot.de/2017/05/3d-fix-manager.html[/url][/.]
[/list]
[u]Instructions:[/u]
[list]
[.][b]Installer version:[/b] Start the setup wizard and simply click on continue. Adjust install directory to your liking. A desktop shortcut and entry in start menu folder will be created by the Setup Wizard.[/.]
[.][b]Portable zip version:[/b] Extract downloaded file archive. Neither start menu entries nor a desktop shortcut will be created by using the zip version.[/.]
[.]Start the application with "3DFixManager.exe" or use the desktop shortcut created by the installer.[/.]
[.]Optional: Download and install RivaTuner Statistics Server for accessing all features of 3D Fix Manager. RTSS eliminates micro stuttering, reduces input lag and improves frametimes in Stereo 3D mode[/.]
[.]Optional: If you are still using an old version (prior version 1.24) you can give admin rights to the application (right click on exe / run as admin). The application needs admin rights for installing fixes to protected folders like c:\program files. For newer versions admin rights are automatically granted.[/.]
[/list]
[u]Requirements:[/u]
[list]
[.]Windows 7 / 8 / 10[/.]
[.].NET Framework 4.5.2 or higher installed[/.]
[.]Optional: 3D Vision / 3DTV Play compatible device (you can use this application as a simple game launcher if you don't have such a device)[/.]
[/list]
[u]Known Issues:[/u]
[list]
[.]Detection of installed games may fail if no corresponding registry keys could be found. To fix this either enable search paths in the application settings or set a custom install path for the individual fix profile. Please have a look in the manual (section "problems and solutions") for a more detailed information on this.
[/.]
[.]Another reason for not detecting games is when the name of the individual fix profile does not match the title of the game retrieved from the windows registry. Try to rename the fix profile to match exactly what is listed in "Windows Control Panel / Programs"[/.]

This is amazing! Thank you very much for doing this.
May I add a suggestion for the next update? It would be nice to be able to change the install directory of each game in it's individual profile in your app. Example. I have watchdogs 2 installed on a different drive (F:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\Games\WATCH_DOGS2) than the default install location, thus, the app doesn't detect it as installed. Infact, I don't have many games installed in their default location as I'm sure many of us don't either.
I hope that made sense. I just woke up a little while ago and only had one coffee. hehe.
Thanks again Pauldusler

Hi mrallroy,
the application looks in the registry for installed games and install locations. I did not test this game yet because I don't own it yet but maybe there is an error in the fix profile. The game title from the registry is compared against the name in the fix profile. When this name does not exactly match the game is not detected as installed. So maybe the name in the fix profile is wrong (maybe the underline?. Please look in the help section under "PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS". I described this problem there. So you could try to change the game title in the fix profile from Watch_Dogs 2 to Watch Dogs 2? (In steam store it's with "_". Could you please look for the name in windows control panel / programs and tell me the exact name? I will correct it then and ship a fix profile update.
I think for the next update I will make a field for custom install paths. So when the game is not found there will be a fallback to the user defined path :)

That did the trick. I simply had to rename the game title from Watch_Dogs 2 to Watch_Dogs2 and it detected it properly. Thank you very much. :)
I do think it would be a great idea, as you stated, to make a custom install path field. I look forward to seeing how you develop this app in the future.
BTW - The skin for this app, matching Geforce Experience, looks fantastic!!!

I like the skin from geforce experience very much so I tried to make a similar look :)
Next time you start the application there should be a fix update with corrected Watch Dogs2 profile (just confirm with yes twice). Maybe I should kill all whitespaces before comparing the name in the program code xD. This may come in the next update and the field for custom install path. Thanks for the feedback :)

Sorry, my account got flagged and my posts were set invisible. I just created a new account to inform you (thread is still available with the searchbox). It seems that the automatic spam filter from nvidia did this (don't know why xD). I Already sent an e-mail to the forum support in the hope that this thread shows up again very soon.

Avast seems to delete the executable... and is reporting it as a trojan/malware... Don't know why it does that... But I think you should let Avast know about it;) and that is not one;)
Awesome job, BTW;)

Thank you. I'll try to contact avast about it. Maybe they can mark it as "not a virus" ;). Bitdefender and Kaspersky don't raise any alarm however.
Still waiting for nvidia to unflag my account. I additionally contacted them in a pinned topic for hidden posts. Hope they unflag my account soon. Otherwise I recreate this topic with my new account in a few days. Maybe the spamfilter didn't like the direct link to the download file or maybe because there was no domain in the link (got a domain now).
Now you can reach the help section here: http://fixmanager.rentus.de
In the meantime I'm working on a small update for the application :)

My account was unflagged by nvidia at last :). It was indeed the spam filter which gave a false positive. Hope my account will not get flagged again.
In the meantime I have released the first update for the application (version 1.01). You can read the change notes on the download page which is linked in the topic.

Hi,
I want to share an application with you I’ve been working on for a while. It’s called "3D Fix Manager" and the reason I developed it is that I wanted to have a more comfortable way for installing 3D Vision Fixes and an easier method for editing hotkeys in order to change 3D separation / convergence settings.
So which features does 3D Fix Manager provide?
Currently more than 600 fixes from http://helixmod.blogspot.com are supported by 3D Fix Manager. This includes Helix Mod (DirectX 9), 3dMigoto (DirectX 11) and OpenGL 3D Vision Wrapper.

May I add a suggestion for the next update? It would be nice to be able to change the install directory of each game in it's individual profile in your app. Example. I have watchdogs 2 installed on a different drive (F:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\Games\WATCH_DOGS2) than the default install location, thus, the app doesn't detect it as installed. Infact, I don't have many games installed in their default location as I'm sure many of us don't either.
I hope that made sense. I just woke up a little while ago and only had one coffee. hehe.

Hi mrallroy,
the application looks in the registry for installed games and install locations. I did not test this game yet because I don't own it yet but maybe there is an error in the fix profile. The game title from the registry is compared against the name in the fix profile. When this name does not exactly match the game is not detected as installed. So maybe the name in the fix profile is wrong (maybe the underline?. Please look in the help section under "PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS". I described this problem there. So you could try to change the game title in the fix profile from Watch_Dogs 2 to Watch Dogs 2? (In steam store it's with "_". Could you please look for the name in windows control panel / programs and tell me the exact name? I will correct it then and ship a fix profile update.

Sorry, my account got flagged and my posts were set invisible. I just created a new account to inform you (thread is still available with the searchbox). It seems that the automatic spam filter from nvidia did this (don't know why xD). I Already sent an e-mail to the forum support in the hope that this thread shows up again very soon.
Awesome job, BTW;)
Life is as empty without Terror, as is without Love...

Thank you. I'll try to contact avast about it. Maybe they can mark it as "not a virus" ;). Bitdefender and Kaspersky don't raise any alarm however.
Still waiting for nvidia to unflag my account. I additionally contacted them in a pinned topic for hidden posts. Hope they unflag my account soon. Otherwise I recreate this topic with my new account in a few days. Maybe the spamfilter didn't like the direct link to the download file or maybe because there was no domain in the link (got a domain now).
Now you can reach the help section here: http://fixmanager.rentus.de
In the meantime I'm working on a small update for the application :)
In the meantime I have released the first update for the application (version 1.01). You can read the change notes on the download page which is linked in the topic.
