@bigmike20vt - Have you got a link for free 3DTV for everyone? I thought it was free for anyone who had Nvidia 3D vision glasses and the kit plugged into their PC like I have?

This is not good news for my 3D projector.

I bought 3DTV for 20 bucks back in the day.

@Wildt - Are 3DTV and Nvidia 3D vision Player the same thing? I've got Nvidia 3D vision Player installed and it was free because I have the emitter connected to my PC.

Nopes. This page shows the difference:

So in essence, I payed to get support for the frame packed HDMI 3D standard, that my projector needs to display full resolution 1080p 24fps 3D movies.

@Wildt - So is there a work around? Say if you kept the old driver instead of updating would that work?

Can anyone link me to the driver that has 3D TV for free for a Geforce 1080, I can't find it? The latest drivers are 419 not 418 now and Nvidia say they will only support 418? I'm a bit confused. Cheers!

Sad news indeed, I've been using their 3D driver since the Win 98 days.  You don't need their driver if you have the full stereoscopic player licence. change the output to side by side and you should be able to switch to 3D from your projector..I use stereoscopic player mostly to convert old field sequential 3D movies to side by side. As far as 3D play being free to everyone. I'm pretty sure 3D play is their anaglyph / red and blue glasses. 
 I just got 3D vision working with my 1080ti and projector. Movies look great using the the 3D vision driver, but not really necessary. I play SBS movies with power DVD and just enable SBS on the projector.

 When you enable 3D in your control panel, run the set-up wizard. if you have their wireless emitter plugged in and a supported device you will be able to use the full driver, if not and you fail that test they give you a desktop shortcut to 3D play. If you have a projector that's not officially supported, there are ways to get it working.

Edit: I read some of that about 3D TV driver, I didn't know there was a driver for sale at some point. Looks like a lot of info and game fixes from the Nvidia 3D community. I'm a bit confused myself, but I think I read an update in April will be free  https://forums.geforce.com/default/board/49/
