Triple Monitors and FOV Settings

[nolatron]

Here's some of the test screens we did.

First moving the came forward and backward. 6.8 seems to be the lowest we go. Any lower and you started seeing the back of the chair or even went to outside the cab. I did see a piece of chair floating if you turn right, so I may have to bump this up to 6.9

FOV 35, Z-Axis 6.8


FOV 40, Z-Axis 6.8


FOV 45, Z-Axis 6.8




Then we played with moving the camera to the left


FOV 40, Z-Axis 6.8, X Axis .95 moving camera to the left


FOV 40, Z-Axis 6.8, X Axis .90 moving camera little more to the left

Usable now.... I vote for 6.8 and 0.95...

That looks a lot like what I'd expect to see in real life.

My vote too, to judge by these screenshots.
You probably have to see it for real on three monitors to really appreciate it.
But the monitors must be in one plane side-by-side still, no surroud view setup, right?

Now if only that mirror is reflective or can be folded back, like on the GP30 ...

I filmed some game footage using FOV 45 and camview 6.9 (had to bump up the camview to get that last piece of seat gone and then the FOV to push the view back a little).

I'll post it once it's down uploading.

Still caught a piece of chair with these settings I noticed. Just need to tweak the camview a wee bit more. But I think it looking pretty good.

This is as good as it gets.

I wish I had known about the TripleHead2Go before buying my current computer.
I bought two Nvidia 9800 GTX with three monitors; also I thought I would use them in SLI mode for games, which I never did (too much of a hassle). I also wish RSC had told us that you needed that thing for a 3-monitor setup, I wouldn't have spent hours trying to make it work on my setup.
