Has anyone ever worked out a stereoscopic AW?

With gaming goggles and a way to coordinate (aw_teleport()?) two
avatars, one for each eye's view, one might route each client window to
the corresponding goggle eye or maybe put each client window on a
separate monitor then route the monitors to the goggles.

Is this even possible?

Imagine the immersion!

We have done this using SciTech's GLDirect, which can convert OpenGL calls
that are not intended to be viewed stereoscopically into Direct3D calls that
are displayed in stereo. SciTech removed the forced stereo option after
version 3, and you must use one of their supported cards (which include
popular nvidia and ati cards from a couple of years back). Their site is
www.scitechsoft.com, and you will probably have to contact them to get the
old version that supports this. Maybe with enough demand, they will support
that feature again. Last I knew, licenses were about $20.

It works very well for the most part, though there are some quirks (for
example, skyboxes appear too close).
