New Vision running on DX9?

Post by Foreverseeking »

Hey Guys, thanks for your great work, the textures look great. Problem is, I want to play with nvidia 3D enabled, and DX10 makes the 3D laser site work only in 2D and there are also 2D light coronas which I can't seem to turn off.

Is there a way to get your textures working in dx9, as when I run a DX9 renderer it runs the game with standard textures. Replacing the standard textures completly with yours doesn't change the result.

Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

Mind explaining what you mean by this? In particular, what do you mean by "3D laser sight works only in 2D"?

Go into your DeusEx.ini and scroll to the section [D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice]. Make sure you find "UseS3TC=" and then set that to True. Should take care of things. While you are there you can modify a whole other lot of settings as well.

Cheers for your help Bjorn, I think this was likely what got it going. Please find the .ini info underneath for anyone wanting to play this amazing game in 3D. It is litteralluy stunning! Also New Vision really helps to add a layer of polish to a rather ugly (though amazing) game.


1 - Install new vision 1.5 with Kentie renderer.
2 - Download a dx9 renderer and pop that in the Deus ex stsyem folder.
3 - Copy and paste these settings to the deus ex .ini found in C:\Users\xxx\Documents\Deus Ex\System\deusex.ini

[D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice]
ZRangeHack=False
NoAATiles=True
NumAASamples=4
UseAA=True
UseSoftwareVertexProcessing=False
UsePureDevice=True
UseTripleBuffering=True
MaskedTextureHack=True
SmoothMaskedTextures=False
SceneNodeHack=True
FrameRateLimit=0
SwapInterval=-1
UseFragmentProgram=False
TexDXT1ToDXT3=False
DynamicTexIdRecycleLevel=100
CacheStaticMaps=False
UseTexPool=True
UseTexIdPool=True
UseSSE2=True
UseSSE=True
SinglePassDetail=False
SinglePassFog=True
ColorizeDetailTextures=False
DetailClipping=False
DetailMax=2
RefreshRate=0
MaxTMUnits=0
NoFiltering=False
MaxAnisotropy=16
Use565Textures=True
Use16BitTextures=False
UseS3TC=True
UseTrilinear=False
UsePrecache=False
UseMultiTexture=True
MaxLogTextureSize=8
MinLogTextureSize=0
OneXBlending=True
GammaCorrectScreenshots=True
GammaOffsetBlue=0
GammaOffsetGreen=0
GammaOffsetRed=0
GammaOffset=0.000000
GammaOffset=0.000000
LODBias=0.000000
DetailTextures=True
DescFlags=0
Description=
HighDetailActors=True
Coronas=False
ShinySurfaces=True
VolumetricLighting=True

4: Run game, in data directories select both New Vision mods.
5: Configure game: Select non scaling GUI, select DX9 render. (if you have problems later with voice skips or music glitches set Audio Latency to 60 or higher)
6: Run game, turn 3d laser sites on and enjoy some seriously good 3D Hi Res Deus Ex action.


How to know if it works:

Training level: Has bricks instead of blank walls
Opening Level: You can clearly see wood grain and lighting doesn't have 2D coronas.
