Umm, when it says 3d, it means the objects have 3 dimensions as apposed to 2. This is so they can form cubes on your screen instead of squares.
If you were to use 3d glasses to get the full effect you would need to completely program a whole system of colouring and lighting...

For example this is 3d:

This is 2d:

I think you should look for the demo, although I've no idea what newsletter or update it was part of - but there's a demo of a FPSC created scene, which uses the anaglyph (red and green), polarised, and double view techniques. I'll check tonight, if I can't source it, I'll see if I can upload it here instead.

There's a current thread about the VR920 headset, with a neat example of the undocummented commands - I'm not sure if the display mode setting for VR mode would support your 3D specs, I'm thinking that's more for head tracking and double update (flicks between left and right eye) 3D.

Health, Ammo, and bacon and eggs!

you have to render 2 difrent sides of the screen at the same time.one side of the screen would have difrent color values then the other so the glases would blend in each side together as one.you could use 2 cameras for this but i dought it would work in a 3d world with bolth cameras moving. they would have to set side by side completly still. rendering a video also, or bipmaps.

It's all in a previous newsletter. I tried it on an old project of mine that included explosions, and it worked quite well even with the old-style green/red glasses method.

You cannot use RealD 3D glasses with any form of monitor. It uses circular polarization rather than colour so you cannot swap between 2 renders with different colours.
