Very similar method to how I play games in 3D in a VR headset, so I made a helpful guide: [GUIDE - How to play STEAM Games in 3D on your LUME PAD 2 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaagZ8-b7Nc)

Super useful! Thanks for sharing a guide on how people can mod almost ANY of their PC games to run in 3D to use with Lume Pad 2!

Can you hook the game pad up to the lume pad 2 and use it with moonligh3D instead of connecting it directly to the PC?

Yes, as mentioned in the release post. Works with both USB-C and with Bluetooth. You can connect the gamepad either directly to the PC or to the Lume Pad 2 and it’ll work beautifully.

It’ll also work the same way with Mouse/Keyboard too.

If you can convert any Unreal game on Steam into SBS using the Reshade Method, it will work. Also there are some games that came with a SBS mode by default, for example ‘Rise of the Tomb Raider’ there is a handy list here as well of games with natural SBS support: [List of stereoscopic video games - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_stereoscopic_video_games)

Well Ive been 3D gaming over 10 years, started with the ELSA 3D Glasses plating games in 3D on my PC. With this tablet its now all mobile. Also 3D is what got me into VR 5 years ago, never looked back.  
Plus these 3D tablets are more than just gaming, you talking 3D photo’s, 3D art creation. Watching 3D movies like Avatar 2 etc.

How is watching Avatar 2 in 3d on the tablet, would you choose it over watching on a 3d projector ?
