I'm not entirely sure how to do it. I have experimented a few times but I still don't get it. Unfortunately there is not a lot of information on how to do this on the net. In case you don't know what anaglyphs are here is a wiki to it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaglyph_image And to summarize it basically the 3D images that you can see with the red/cyan glasses. http://www.invincibletime.com/ Devlog for HD MMF Game Omulus.

There are a number of programs that try to do this, but none of them ever worked for me. I think unless someone makes an extension that renders the playfield in red/blue stereoscopic real-time, (Like that'll ever happen.) you're going to have a difficulty. Having split sprites messes up collision detection, and there isn't quite an ink effect designed specifically for red/blue sprite overlapping.

In MMF2, you can start out with a black background and have two versions of an object, one red and one blue, set to additive color mode (subtractive of a white background seems to work as well). Align these objects next to each other to create the red-blue 3D effect; the further apart they are with the blue on the left, the further out of the screen it will appear to protrude, whereas the further apart with the red on the left, the further into the screen it will appear to recede. Then you just adjust the distance between these objects appropriately during runtime to give the illusion of active depth. The big problem with this method, though, is that every object will be visible through every other object. To fix this you'd need to be able to render the two views independently of one another, and superimpose the entire view with an additive blending effect. And that's not something that MMF is really capable of. The other problem is that you need two objects for every object, which can get difficult to control. Go Moon!

I even tried using pixel shaders from the HWA version of MMF and it's still like...a bit lame. http://www.invincibletime.com/ Devlog for HD MMF Game Omulus.

Does anyone with vast knowledge of the HWA MMF version know if there is a proper way of messing with the red, blue, and green channels? I can make these 3D effects work perfectly in photoshop, but I can't do it in MMF. I just need to find the equivalent controls.
