My triple screen setup

[tnn]

Here is my triple screen setup. I'm playing GT6 on Ps3. I hope to get some Fanatec goodies next month and setup iRacing soon

Nice!

Does GT6 account for the bezels and the monitor angles?

iRacing works particularly well with triples, best support of any game I think.

Nice set up. I used to run triple screens on GT5. What size screens are you using?

From what I understand it's actually very comprehensive. I think it was @Mr Latte that did an extremely impressive guide to triple set up for GT5. That GT5/6 have it covered, all the more means that Project Cars and R3E should hang their heads in shame for their current states.

AC has the same triple screens support as Iracing. Both are done very well.

@marky5244. Yes GT6 account for the bezels and monitor angles. I wish there's TV have no bezels, well there is, but too expensive.

@PzR Slim, I'm running 3x 40" screen. I believe 40" give 1-1 perspective. In fact now I can't play too long because I can get motion sickness. I think if I have some sort of motion seat that would help :-D

You have the wrong FOV. I get the same thing if mine is off by too much. Not sure how much adjustment GT6 has, but you can also slide the monitors closer or further away. Might also want to try widening the angle of side monitors. I cant go past about 60 degrees without getting motion sickness.

I have both side monitors at 120 degrees compare on the center screen. when you say FOV wrong, do you mean viewing angle ??

By FOV (field of view) I mean the distance your eyes are from the center screen while sitting as you do while racing.

thanks fatkrakr. I moved 2" away and things seem to be better.
check out my new test:

correction: I moved 4" not 2" (I added a 2x4). :-D

Looks great almost like your in race car.
I am right saying you need 3 ps3 consoles and 3 game discs.

Looks like you are in a real race car ! How do you get a Triple screen setup to work ?

You need three screens (ideally exactly the same), three copies of the game and three PS3's networked together. There is then a setup option within the game to gets the images aligned correctly. It's works fantastically. Used it on GT5 when I had my triple screen setup.

thanks everyone. yes, 3 ps3, 3 game dics. here is the setup. you can see I added 2x4 there to move the steering wheel out. I'm not too happy with this yet. I think I'll make sometimes this weekend to redo that and move at least 2" more.

Nice work, that looks like a lot of fun to play on. like the speakers on the seat. Got plans to add tactile? Aside from motion, probably the biggest improvement to immersion, especially on a PC with triples.

Thank you @Rallywagon. I got 7.1 sound. The sub is underneath the seat, generate some rumbling. I'm thinking about getting a PC for iRacing and full set of fanatec stuff but they are out of stock at the moment. Maybe by Christmas time. :-D
