I. Prepare the 3D Stereo Plugin

1) Please install moreStereo3D and update your Direct-X runtime.

2) Start moreStereo3D

II. Configure the 3D Stereo Plugin for LS PrePost

3) Right click the moreStereo3D Tray Icon (next to your system time) and select “more3D Stereo Enabler”

4) Click the “Locate known Apps” Button. The more3D stereo enabler will search the folders “C:\Program Files” and “C:\Program Files (x86)” for your LS PrePost installation. In case you have installed LS PrePost into a non-standard installation directory, please continue with step 5). If the more3D Stereo Enabler found your LS PrePost installation properly, please continue on step 9)

5) Click the “Add Application” Button.

6) Navigate to your LS PrePost installation directory ( e.g. E:\LSDYNA)

7) Open the subfolder named “program” . The complete path should be looking close to this: E:\LSDYNA\program
