Ghost-avatars

The video card is set up to display horizontally (so now the display is 2 monitors wide when not running a vizard program) and we are manually setting the vizard display options using the PROMPT command (in which we are checking HMD, Fullscreen, stereoscopic, and tracking).

I want to re-emphasize, we are getting the stereoscopic, 3-D effect for the entire environment (except for the avatars positioned in the environment). Vizard is sending slightly different images to each eye to make the 3-D effect work. The only exception is with avatars--the left image displays the enviroment with avatars in their proper position, the right image displays the environment with no avatars. (The avatars remain still and motionless during the program.) This produces a weird ghost-avatar effect when experiencing the environment with both eyes open as the environment is perfectly rendered in 3-D, but the avatars are present only in the left eye.
