Adjusting the Depth
The depth amount in a game is the depth that the far thest object is 
placed in a scene. When 3D Vision is first installed on your system, 
the Depth is set at the default of 15%. If you are new to 3D gaming, 
15% is a good point to star t with. Viewing depth at a higher setting 
can be uncomfor table to some users. as you use 3D Vision, your eyes 
will become more accustomed to viewing stereoscopic 3D and you 
can incrementally increase the depth amount without eye strain.
