Silent Hill 2 images in 3D for VR and Anaglyph glasses

Post by Avith »

Do you ever wondered how Silent Hill 2 would look if it was updated for Virtual Reality?





With the possibility of moving the camera (with difficulty) I took images in-game to be able to make the 3D effect, getting more immersion for the game. I put music from the game according to the scene that is being showed, except the track at 32:30 which is a personal composition.

Those are the best images I could take because it was difficult to control the camera how I wanted, besides I don't know how to change the point of focus because depending of the scenario it is either fixed to focus 1 meter in front of James or its just static and focusing in one axis (I even couldn't run SilentFly in my PC), so the results couldn't be better, is also the reason why there are some scenarios absent (Maria's cell for example). There are a few images from cutscenes because most of the time the characters are moving and the camera doesn't move in just the X-Axis.

To correct some images I used the free program StereoPhoto Maker which I highly recommend to download if you want to get more 3D options for different devices/glasses such as Interlaced, Gray Anaglyph (red, cyan, green, etc.), Color Anaglyph (color, Dubois, Suto, etc.), Side-by-side, Sharp 3D, and more.
If you use Android or iPhone there is an app "3DSteroid" which is basically the previous program I mentioned.
Here are some examples:

Interlaced (http://i.imgur.com/RyKGo9b.jpg)
Sharp3D LCD (http://i.imgur.com/YkbiCan.jpg)

I noticed that the immersion was affected by the noise effect of the game. I put it on because I wanted to make feel the images as if you were actually playing the game, but when I ended playing the whole game I saw the images. I hope to take more images with the noise filter off.

I also would like to make 3D images for Silent Hill 3, but my laptop has an old NVIDIA card so is difficult to run the game, but hopefully in the future I will do it.

So enjoy! If you want to download the images in High Quality check the description of the videos :wink:

That would be awesome, but I don't think Koonami may do that...But I love that idea a lot :)

Sounds interesting. Too bad I can't find my anaglyph glasses and I don't have any VR to try this. I do recall Downpour had a 3D option for 3D TVs.
