    Wow, hoving tried out the demo on steam, it is JUST like PCARS2. Anyway both seem to have the same issue when i setup triple screens. The alignment between centre and left screens look good but there is quite a big discrepancy between centre and right screens, the curvature looks off and a big gap seemingly between screesn as they dont align.

    Anyone run triples in AMS2?

    I dont have triples but this is well known and there is a fix that solves it .. just do a search & it should pop up as its well documented! & hope you can jump in with us ! The game & UI are in fact the maddness engine from PC2 but the cars are all reiza & a world apart from PC2 ;)

    I'm using triple. Everything looks OK. In Triple Screen settings screen you can adjust left or right monitor to your liking.
    In the video above, I don't know, something is wrong. He set the Nvidia Surround with bezel correction and then in game, again, he applied bezel correction.
    I used in the past Surround with bezel correction only for AMS and rFactor because missing the in game triple screen settings. Today, all modern sims have in game triple settings.
    I just let the surround with default resolution 5760*1080 (in my case) and applied in game bezel correction. For in game screen dimensions (physical width/height) you have to measure only the actual screen, without bezel. This worked for me.

    All looks good for me on triples. Don't use bezel correction resolution. Just use normal resolution and then set bezels correctly in the triple screen menu items in game.

    What do you set the in-car camera FOV to?
    I have Nvidia surround on. I have tried previously in PC2 days to both normal res and bezel-corrected res but neither really look ok.

    I have FOV on 56 but I am only 67cm away from triple 32" monitors so it really depends on your monitor size and position.

    Seems counter-intuitive, but only set "single" screen on this FOV calcuator to get the pCars (AMS) FOV even when running triples!

    I'm at work now, but looks like some peoples have that issue, some other not.
    As I looked a little on AMS forums and I found this

    and also:
    "You can edit distance from the central screen in the triplescreen.xml file in your documents/Automobilista 2 folder"
    Didn't tried because for me it is working straight away. Or I didn't noticed the issue. I will check.

    Replay cameras don't use triple screen settings mind you. Horribly stetched and no way, like ACC, to restrict to just the middle monitor. Oh well.
