Hi, It would be great if you dropped the hard requirement for Quad Buffer Stereo because with traditional stereo methods for consumer cards (e.g. Side by Side stereo) you can get similar quality, but with lower requirements for the hardware costs. I don't think you need to do any extra fakery, as OSG already includes that fakery as part of its rendering pipeline ;)
