    Hi guys, I ordered Dirt Rally PreRelease, installed our PlugIn, and then, then, then I had to swallow hard. No 720p resolution , no 120Hz gaming at 3800x720 pixel using my projectors, WTH. They have simply forgotten to include 720p as a resolution. NOOBS!

    EDIT: Later today I was looking for pCars and then - I had to swallow hard, again! There is no support for triples. I thought there was much time spent looking after visuals. NOOBS!

    Just alter the config files manually for Dirt Rally im sure that would work so you can get the correct res.

    And Pcars deffinately supports triple screens !!

    Already tested, does not work.
    You cant justify the angle of view like in Assetto Corsa, ergo IMHO triple screens are not supported. Anyway thank you @SilentChill for your tips.

    You can run pCars in tripple screen mode up to 11'520×2'160 (= 3×4K).
    You might need 4×SLI Nvidia Titan :D

    @value1 triples are running but you cant justify the correct FOV, f.eg. the right mirror is out of the screen and the dashboard is warped like a banana :p

    Pcars is ported to console, so good luck if it ever gets an update supporting 3 screens. I have seen very few console - pc ported games support 3 screens. Mostly codies games and some EA games.

    bummer for no triple screen support.. AC and iracing are a perfect example how it should be done!

    You can set this in cfg file in C:\Users\USER\Documents\My Games\DiRT Rally\hardwaresettings .
    This is in win7 but you get the idea.

    ah an older thread has been digged out...you are right, in the meantime surround. Only 3D is crashing from time to time...the screen collapses back to 2D.
