    2. He's probably using a 4K 3D TV. You can find all the information about how to play in stereo 3D at 4K below:

    1. Just tried this, and it's working great here. Win10, Driver 390.77. I had to set the compatibility flag in the properties for the exe to "disable fullscreen optimizations" because Win10 is stupid as hell and can't imagine why anyone would want to run in exclusive fullscreen.

      I also had to launch game as Admin, so that the 3D profile would be written.

    1. Good point. I went ahead and merged in the most recent d3dx.ini, without changing any of Helifax's fix settings. v1.4 should now support SBS and upscaling. I tested SBS and it was working.

  10. Hello all. I tried the patch, and cannot get the game to rum. It appears to load, but then exits and cannot try the 3d fix. Anyone got the same error?.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    1. Have not had any problems recently, and this is even running HelixVision in VR. No problems on launching. Win10 1809, Driver 419.67.

      Try removing the fix altogether, and make sure that it launches with no modding. Make sure the 3D works before adding the mod. You might also try the 3D Fix Manager to simplify the startup and installation.

  11. Thank you Helifax for this great fix, for what I think it’s an essential game to play by any true gamer.
    This game was a pure joy to play. It’s basically sci-fi Dark Souls, which will probably never come directly from From Software. Controls are tight and keys can be remapped. Target switching while target-locked does not suffer from the infamous mouse bug, like in Vampyr or some of the Dark Souls games (or it may be other games that suffered from this, cannot remember. But it can be a real pain, with no current solution).
    The futuristic visual style it’s quite generic, we’re far from something like Alien Isolation, and the story/presentation is less obscure/abstract than the Miyazaki games, but it has enough distance and lack of handholding to make the game mysterious enough. The bosses are ok although not many, rarely frustrating. The fun will be in the journey, building up your character, exploring or revisiting locations, unlocking shortcuts etc. NG+ has new enemy types and placement, making it enjoyable to replay.
    Some negatives are the twisted level design made more frustrating due to lack of a level map screen, too few bosses, and certain players might find it too difficult at the start or if played too casually, like the Dark Souls.
    But being set in a sci-fi universe makes it mandatory playing in my opinion, as this genre is often more represented by games set in a fantasy world, which I’m growing tired of at the moment.

    4K TV users: we are saved by the resolution scaling! I set it to 50%, disabled AA, AO, and some other stuff, to get butter-smooth 60fps (with few exceptions in outside areas). Not much other tweaking necessary, the PC port is quite solid.
    The only great sadness is not to be able to ever play The Surge 2, as it’s not fixable in 3D. Judging by my playthrough of The Surge, the sequel was on the right track to improve on a lot of things and make this game one of the greatest, in 3D Vision. But even so, I’m sure I’ll be replaying The Surge many times, when the sci-fi mood strikes, and it’s all due to Helifax and the great 3D masters of our community. Don’t miss this one, guys!

  12. Sorry, i have missed something. Why there is no fix for The Surge 2? What is the problem with the game?
