Guide to bridge 3D Tool into Virtual Reality:

  • Start the moreViz Launcher
  • Notice the moreViz-Tray icon (next to system time) and right-click it, select “moreViz Application Enabler”
  • Click “Locate known Apps”. The more3D application enabler will search the standard program files folders for known 3D Tool installations and add them to the list.
  • If your 3D Tool is installed to a non standard directory, please click “Add” and then locate the “3D-Tool.exe” file. It is usually located in
    “X:\Program Files\3D-Tool FreeViewer Vxx\”
  • Place the enable checkmark for the newly created entry.
  • Close the Application Enabler.
  • The moreViz VR bridging function is now available for the 3D Tool installation.
  • Start the moreViz Client(s) and then start 3D Tool.
  • Make sure to enable the perspective view mode in 3D Tool, under 3D Mode -> Perspective.

In case there are any issues with the visualization in the moreViz client, make sure to have followed these guides:

  • Dual GPU & Quadro guide: For frozen or black image in client
  • Fit the 3D into the host app’s viewport: in case geometry is missing in the moreViz client

Quick Tipps:

  • For best performance with HMD, set the connection type to shared memory in the moreViz Launcher’s Connection Settings (only available for single-client setups on the local computer).
  • For best visual impression, set AntiAliasing / Pixel Density to 2x (or higher) in the moreViz Launcher’s Client Settings
  • SteamVR only: To operate the host application’s graphics user interface, check the SteamVR Desktops function of the SteamVR Dashboard.
