Driver Profile Settings

This page is a work in progress - feel free to expand it with extra knowledge, before & after screenshots, etc.

Tools

The recommended tool for working with profiles is NVIDIA Profile Inspector 2.1.2.12 or later due to its ability to decrypt internal settings.

Latest continuous integration build

Source code

Forum thread (note that the download linked from here does not yet support decrypting internal settings)

3DMigoto 1.2.50 now has built in support for working with driver profiles, including decrypting and logging the current profile in d3d11_log.txt, and making any changes necessary when the game is launched.

Obsolete tools:

NVIDIA Profile Inspector 2.1.2.6 or older

NVIDIA Inspector 1.9.7.5 or older (English mirror)

GeForce 3D Profile Manager

NVIDIA Inspector Custom Stereo Settings Names

NVIDIA Inspector (old versions): Download this CustomSettingNames_en-EN.xml file to replace the one from NVIDIA Inspector, which will add all the settings listed on this page to the Stereo category.

NVIDIA Profile Inspector: This program automatically decodes most setting names (you may need to select "Show unknown settings from NVIDIA predefined profiles" to see them) Edit: This no longer works as recent drivers have removed the DLLs that the tool relied on to find the stereo settings names. There are some exceptions - most notably the all important StereoProfile setting is missing. You can use the XML file linked above, but name it 'CustomSettingNames.xml' (i.e. remove the '_en-EN').

Important note about encoding of "Internal" Settings

Some profiles are shipped with the internal settings flag set on certain settings. These show up with "InternalSettingFlag=V0" in Geforce Profile Manager, but there is no easy way to distinguish them in NVIDIA Inspector. These settings are encrypted and the values read out with these tools will not match any of the documentation here. Further, if they are written back with NVIDIA Inspector, the flag will be cleared and they will become corrupt. Geforce Profile Manager allows them to be written back with the flag intact avoiding the corruption, but still does not help understand them.

A script to decipher these values from Geforce Profile Manager is available: here

NVIDIA Profile Inspector 2.1.2.7 or later can correctly decode these, and is now the recommended tool for working with driver profiles. Version 2.1.2.7 Latest build

3DMigoto 1.2.50 and later includes support for logging and updating driver profiles, and correctly handles encrypted settings. The undocumented option [Logging] dump_all_profiles=1 can be used to have it decrypt and log every profile instead of just the ones relevant to the game being run.

Notes on settings with multiple IDs

Some settings on this page are listed with two or three IDs. This is not fully understood yet. Generally you should stick to the first value listed, but if a profile also lists the second or third value in this list it might be used in place of the first (however a given profile will only use a specific ID out of the second or third in the list).

The following settings have multiple IDs:

StereoProfile (AKA The Mystery Stereo Setting) 0x701EB457

This setting is known to be very important to stereo profiles. We now know it's official name is STEREO_STEREOPROFILE, and will be referred to as "StereoProfile" in future releases of NVIDIA Profile Inspector.

Observations

- The mere existance of this setting on a DX9 profile will enable Stereo in windowed mode, regardless of the value.

- This setting is required to enable a lot of stereo related code in the driver.

- Certain other stereo settings (e.g. StereoTextureEnable) may be ignored without this setting.

- If this is missing in a profile, attempting to save the profile with Ctrl+F7 will not work, and will restore the default convergence instead. It has been noted that adding this setting to the base profile can solve this globally, but may cause the monitor to switch to stereo mode when using certain 2D applications (e.g. VS2015), which may be undesirable in some cases.

Bit Definitions

Missing	Not a stereo profile (Certain things will not work, including saving the profile via Ctrl+F7)
0x00000000	Not a stereo profile (Certain things will not work - need to confirm exactly what differs compared to missing)
0x00000001	Stereo profile (everything will work)
0x2241AB21	Encrypted, upgrade NVIDIA Profile Inspector

Notable Settings

StereoTextureEnable (0x70edb381 / 0x70e1518c / 0x70c0125e)

- Controls the heuristics that determines which render targets & Z buffers are stereoised and which are not.

- Controls the heuristics that determines in what situations the stereo correction formula will be applied.

- Some bits are used for specific games.

Observations

- Setting this to all F's will turn a game into mono, suggesting that some high bits might filter out some render targets, rather than enabling them.

Bit Definitions

Contact DarkStarSword or Bo3b privately for a complete list of bit definitions for this setting.

Chiri determined a number of these (see this post)

0x00000001	[ET] = Stereoize render target textures which are of size or exceeding the size of the backbuffer (and are not square).
0x00000002	[ESMT] = Stereoize all non square render target textures smaller then backbuffer.
0x00000004	[ESQT] = Stereoize sqare render target textures.
0x00000008	[DBBST] = ???
0x00000010	[DBBS] = ???

Known Values

This only lists known values of games using the high bits (0x10000 and above), since the meaning of the low bits are all known. These high bits are believed to be for game specific quirks:

0x0001xxxx	MX vs. ATV Reflex, Prince of Persia - The Forgotten Sands, Prince of Persia(gameinterpreters_rd.exe)
0x0002xxxx	Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, EverQuest II, F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin(Demo), Lost Planet: Colonies Edition, Serious Sam II, Vizerra Viewer

Default Value

If not specified in a profile, the driver appears to use 0x23 as the default.

StereoUseMatrix (0x70e34a78)

- Able to automatically fix halo type issues in many games

Known Values

0x00000000	Disabled (only vertex output position will be adjusted by the driver)
0x00000001	Enabled (other texcoord outputs based on the position will be adjusted by the driver)
0x1945B570	Encrypted, upgrade NVIDIA Profile Inspector

StereoFlagsDX10 (0x702442fc)

- Able to resolve mono depth buffer issues in DirectX 11 games, such as Far Cry 4 and Ryse: Son of Rome.

Bit Definitions

0x00000008	Allows the reverse stereo blit (e.g. stereo2mono and the SBS/TB output modes of 3DMigoto) to work in SLI
0x00000020	Negates the separation value passed to 3DMigoto effectively breaking/inverting any fix.
0x00001000	Believed to force graphics shaders to run in both eyes regardless of the bound render target heuristic (alternative fix: use 3DMigoto to bind a dummy render or depth target to the broken shaders)
0x00004000	STEREO_COMPUTE_ENABLE - enables running compute shaders once for each eye. Fixes mono depth buffer issue in Far Cry 4 (SLI users can alternatively resolve this with custom SLI compatibility bits), Witcher 3, and other games.
0x00008000	STEREO_COMPUTE_SAME_RESOURCES_AS_GRAPHICS - "stereorize the same resources as for graphics (do not mark all UAVs as stereorizable)". WARNING: Using this value will prevent StructuredBuffer resources from being stereoised - prefer using 3DMigoto 1.2.70's fuzzy texture override matching.

Known Values

0x1C22FE24	Encrypted, upgrade NVIDIA Profile Inspector

Observations

Kaimasta found that 0x00005000 fixed GameWorks effects in The Surge (SLI?). That will be stereo compute shaders + something else:

https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/1010253/3d-vision/the-surge-3d-vision-fix/post/5214378/#5214378

Kaimasta noted some performance differences in Mass Effect: Andromeda with differing flags. My reading of his results is that STEREO_COMPUTE_SAME_RESOURCES_AS_GRAPHICS regains some (up to 5fps) of the performance lost with STEREO_COMPUTE_ENABLE on single GPU (which makes sense, since some compute shaders will then only be run once), and whatever 0x00001000 is has an additional performance cost of up to 3fps:

DarkStarSword performed some detailed analysis on how this setting affects our ability to stereoise buffers and structured buffers:

StereoCutoff (0x709a1ddf / 0x704fcf5c / 0x7053569a)

Present in almost all Stereo profiles, but meaning unknown. My complete guess is that it may be related to driver heuristics to decide when the stereo correction formula is applied (e.g. for UI elements)?

Possible Values

0x00000000	Unknown
0x00000001	Default
0x00000002	Use StereoCutoffDepthNear
0x00000004	Use StereoCutoffDepthFar
0x00000008	Unknown

Other values are invalid.

Observations

- Setting this to 0x00000000 broke shadows in Miasmata

Observations from D-Man11 (see this post)

Note: the values below have been edited from the original post to use the setting names and their decrypted values.

Interesting thing is, if you apply the TR: Underworld profile, the UI text doesn't split, just the background.

Messing around with Legend, I found that StereoCutoffDepthNear = 25.0 and Setting StereoCutoff = 0x00000002 were the responsible flags from the Anniversary profile to stop the UI from splitting. Either by itself would not do anything.

If I just added them to the existing Legend profile, it wouldn't work, something was stopping it. (DarkStarSword's note - this may have been because they were encrypted. This experiment should be repeated)

If I deleted everything from the Legend profile, excluding StereoProfile = 0x00000001 (which is needed, if you remove it, the profile defaults to generic) and added the 2 flags from Anniversary, the UI would not split.

   StereoCutoffDepthNear = 0x41c80000 (25.0) // is exclusive to TR: Anniversary
   StereoCutoff          = 0x00000002 // is found in 26 other profiles
   StereoProfile         = 0x00000001 // is found in 2110 profiles

So the above 3 settings need to be present and there must not be any current settings in the profile to block the effect.

I did not bother to find the offending setting in the original Legend profile.

StereoCutoffDepthNear (0x7050e011 / 0x704ef483 / 0x7031de06)

Floating point value used when StereoCutoff is set to 2 to set a threshold depth to stop the UI splitting when it is rendered nearer than this value (someone confirm if that is entirely correct and if this can affect other things besides the UI).

StereoCutoffDepthFar (0x70add220)

Floating point value used when StereoCutoff is set to 1 to set a threshold depth to stop the UI splitting when it is rendered further away than this value (someone confirm if that is entirely correct and if this can affect other things besides the UI).

GameSpecific0 (0x702244b7)

For a DX9 game, this defines which constant register the driver injects the stereo settings in with x = -separation*convergence, y = separation (making the stereo correction formula pos.x += c255.x + c255.y * pos.w). Only vertex shaders that the driver modifies will have anything injected at all. The default is c255, and StereoProfile must be set for this setting to have any effect. Note that unlike the equivelent options for DX11 games, merely accessing this register will *not* neutralise the driver's stereo correction.

248	Rogue Warrior
254	Mafia II, Serious Sam II

DX10VSCBNumber (0x70f8e408 / 0x70f64a32)

For a DX10/11 game, this defines which constant buffer the driver uses to inject the stereo parameters into vertex shaders. The first float in the buffer is -separation*convergence, the second is separation, the third seems to be unused and the fourth indicates that 3D Vision is enabled. The default value is cb12. Note that in contrast to the equivelent DX9 option, merely declaring this constant buffer in a shader will disable the driver's built in stereo correction for that shader (for a HLSL shader the buffer must be accessed and the result used in a meaningful way otherwise the compiler will optimise out the declaration).

More info: https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/766890/3d-vision/bo3bs-school-for-shaderhackers/post/4786821/#4786821

Note that constant buffer 14 is reserved for "internal use" and not normally accessible through HLSL (it is defined in shader model 4/5 and declaring it in assembly proves that it does exist and can be used for this purpose, but it is not clear if that might ever interfere with anything else).

Compatibility Mode Settings

Helifax created a guide with more information about these settings: Guide: How to Enable and TWEAK 3D Compatibility Mode in any DX11 Game

2DDHUDSettings (0x709adada)

Controls the compatibility mode settings - overall 3D strength, heuristics to pin the HUD at screen depth, rating.

Bizarrely, enabling compatibility mode in a profile via this setting (can still be disabled via Disable2DD) allows the reverse stereo blit to work in SLI, but this is probably better off being done with StereoFlagsDX10.

Observations

- Deleting this setting from the Far Cry Primal profile breaks a lot of geometry (becomes 2D) even outside of CM. Based on the reverse stereo blit observation I would hazard a guess that this setting implies various other settings.

AutoConvergence (0x702a0ab2)

Looking over the list of games with this setting I suspect this is a very old feature that well and truly pre-dates DX9 and probably won't work in any modern game.

Known Values

A considerable number of profiles have this set to 0, which may be meaningless if 0 is the default, but that would be unusual to have so many profiles specify the default.

AutoConvergenceAdjustPace (0x70bf3c6b)

Floating point value, which is almost always set to 0.05 (except for Combat Mission, where it is set to 1.0). Note that this is present in a number of profiles that lack AutoConvergence.

StereoPointer (0x70364596)

Rhwinf (0x706e1913 / 0x70cc286a / 0x70a3fee6)

Floating point value set in 26 profiles with values ranging from 0.00003125 to 0.04

RHW stands for Reciprocal of Homogeneous W, really just a fancy term for 1 / linear depth. inf is presumably short for infinite depth.

Floating point value set in 29 profiles with values ranging from 0.05 to 1.0

Presumably related to Rhwinf, and "scr" is likely short for screen depth.

Zinf (0x70fc13ad)

At a guess this is probably similar to Rhwinf, but uses the output Z coordinate of the vertex shader instead of the output W coordinate.

Known Values

0.0	Call of Duty: Ghosts

Zscr (0x707f0e69)

At a guess this is probably similar to Rhwscr, but uses the output Z coordinate of the vertex shader instead of the output W coordinate. Presumably related to Zinf in the same way Rhwscr is related to Rhwinf.

StereoLinkDll (0x70e46f2a) - text

Appears to be a comma separated list of files to search for. At a guess, if this setting is present these files either must or must not exist for stereo to engage.

CreateStereoDTAfterPresentNum (0x70a7fc7f)

To confirm, but presumably delays initialising 3D Vision until the game has drawn this number of frames, possibly to work around crashes on launch or other issues caused by 3D Vision being enabled when the game is launched, but works if enabled later.

Known Values

VSH0 (0x708b7af8) - text

At a guess this might stand for "Vertex Shader Hash 0" and define some kind of override for a specific vertex shader, perhaps to force the stereo correction on or off for a particular shader.

Registry Settings

These are settings discovered in the 3D Vision driver that are not listed in the profile table, meaning they can only be set via the registry or (in some cases) control panel. Other settings on this page may (or may not) also be placed in the registry.

On a 64bit OS these settings are under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D

This section is incomplete.

MonitorSizeOverride

Overrides MonitorSize, but is not reset constantly making it a superior option to depth hacks.

DrsEnable

Enables the use of driver profiles.

0x1800babe

That's not a hex value - that's a literal name of a possible registry key, including the "0x".

StereoFullHKConfig

In conjunction with "StereoAdvancedHKConfig", it allows the use of advanced hotkeys like "CutoffFarDepthMore". "StereoFullHKConfig" also unlocks the minimum separation setting, allowing the 0 value instead of 1.
