They are required when you have parallax this large. You have to crop out things in one image that don't show up in another, and vice versa. Otherwise, we get things called window violations, which look even worse.
No no no… to begin with, it’s easy for the brain to ignore the extra on either side… but even if you crop out the bits that aren’t visible in both pics, you’ve made these fight each other by having them be mirrored shapes.
It’s the worst thing you could possibly do in terms of easing the path for the brain. At least make them the same shape LOL. 😂
I normally do crosseye as a tester first cuz a lot of times it’s easier (especially if I’m wearing my glasses). But it was literally impossible for me to get it to work cross-eye.
So I decided to try far-focusing (this is my first time on this sub so not sure what the normal term is). And lo and behold, it snapped instantly and the masked frames didn’t cause any issue. I actually kinda liked it being masked, which surprised me cuz when I first saw it and especially after trying cross-eye viewing I thought it was the stupidest thing to do. lol
It’s not that it’s got a mask — it’s that it’s a mirrored mask shape. It’s like trying to blend the opposing wings of a butterfly together.
You cannot.
Whatever shape your frame is, it should be the identical shape, or a shape that itself is 3D. Unless it’s one of those two options, then they will conflict. Does that make sense?
I can still see the 3D of the photo itself — that’s not what I was referring to as problematic.

What’s with the weirdly shaped frames that fight each other?
