Thank you Tyler Durden!

How wide are the side monitor arms apart? Wouldn’t this change the angle as well?

So i can do all of this for VR too? Id like triples but it never felt right. Being in yhe var in vr was the only way i felt planted. If i can even further improve that id be amazed

@sense-of-speed but is it normal that at 27''' he doesn't get the same fov-eye distance as you in the video? And I mean moving it in the bracket, we can't match 186 fov -635 mm eye distance in the bracket

The values in my .ini files just keep resetting after launching iRacing again. What's going on?

Hey brotha, could you or someone if they know plz inform the single monitor users if this same method applies? Awesome video and the low key entertainment Thanks in advance

Wow...what a change. Running triple 32 flats and I have tried so many FOV setups since moving from VR due to lots of niggly issues, I've gave up many times too. I skipped ahead like you advised not too, made lots of mistakes, the biggest being not setting the correct view distance in monitors, I assumed doing in game game with [ and ] overwrote this so I ignored /facepalm. I got there in the end. I then decided to move my setup to 630mm as you recommend too...I also use the bezel kit at 50 degree...the end results is just such a game changer, I feel more emersed than ever as my monitors are further away so thats pretty damn good, they were 490mm before. I also couldn't believe the "baseline" was exactly bang on, no need to move anything at all in game settings other than vanish and bezels, it was just perfect with exact same settings. I want to thank you so much, this is going to give me so much joy again racing. I will send a tip on kofi so you get the full amount, thanks again!

Does any of this apply to single 32in 1000r curved monitors??

I never comment, but I have to comment on this. I’ve been an iRacer since beta and, for most of that time, used it only occasionally with a basic setup (wheel clamped on a desk and a VR headset kind of vibe). It was supplementing my karting hobby. Karting dried up and about 6 months ago I splashed on my dream rig. I love racing single seaters so it’s a Playseat Formula cockpit with SimuCube, triples, the works. Sounds great… except… cue hours of frustration at how it feels, despite following all the FOV calculations. Is it because the monitors have to sit high on the Playseat? Is it because I’ve moved to triples from VR and can’t get used to it? Turns out it’s none of those things. I followed the steps in this video and the everything is TRANSFORMED! Now my rig feels like the dream setup I wanted. These changes made me realise I needed to make subtle alterations to wheel and pedal position. It was obvious for the first time, as soon as I’d set up the new POV. And it's all just clicked. Now, instead of chasing camera settings every time I jump into a new car, it all aligns every time, and most importantly I feel like I’m driving for real for the first time. This is an absolute game changer. Thank you for the hard work. Despite some of the other comments here, there’s clearly plenty of science behind your method and thought processes. Even if I can’t explain it, I can see it in the relationship between the big screen pro simulator and what you're going for on the curved canvas in front of us. Count me in for testing and being part of the community. This has brought sim racing back to life!

2:48 Looks like you still haven't bought a new wheel 😅I'm curious why you felt you needed a new wheel in this video and why you're still rocking the x-gt a year later.

Okay this was helpful but what do I need to purchase? It’s quite an overwhelming amount of information for someone who wants the most immersive triple screen setup

Hey when are we getting a new video

Love the videos! If you had to do it all over again would you do flat or curved monitors? I’m changing my setup again and want a very immersive setup but not sure what’s better.

this is incredible How did you remove the steering wheel from the GTP?

Can anyone tell me what they used for their setup? (only if using 3x 34" Ultra Wides, at 10320x1440) It would be interesting to have a database (google doc maybe?) where people can put their data. This has the potential to become a huge resource for future sim-race-game developers (and players) to have a great experience while simracing.

Hiya, get info vid. To increase FPS what values should we adjust in the laser scan section?

Gone through this a couple of times after just installing triples and it has completely changed my experience (and love) of simracing, so thank you (although my wife does not thank you!). One thing that has confused me in iRacing however is the cockpit camera tool. I have adjusted horizon, pitch, height etc. What do I do with the FOV slider in the tool? I just leave it alone correct? (For instance my says 106 from my single ultra wide, and I just do not want conflicting FOV that may screw things up...)

Thanks for the work you guys put in , this took a minute but totally worth it!

I setup the "new" FOV method and I like the changes, one thing I still struggle with in sim vs IRL is feeling the speed of a corner, usually I can only tell if I was too slow/fast after its too late, do you have any tips for creating that brain/screen relationship?

this video needs way more views

Thanks for these explanations, as a FOV police officer, I completely validate 🤣 At 37:45 what do you mean about « Explore the near plane setting from 30 » ?

Thank you so much. I'm using 3x27" flat and setting up the fov this way transformed my rig and finally I have a feel like I'm in the car. I am now trying to adjust monitors height to have side monitors perfectly lined up. I saw that If I'm using 0 horizon side monitors looks like angled down. Best feel is around -4% but looks like my seat has to go down to match up. I would like to join your private reddit because I am very interested in this topic together with pedals, wheel and seat adjustments.

Hey Sense of Speed, thanks so much for this. Quick question on your opinion. I have 1 57” G9 Ultra Wide, and 2 G8 32” side screens. SO equivalent of 15360x2160. Curious how you think that would impact the sweet spot for the angle for best FOV. I am not hugely concerned with bezel free as the 57” has such a wide FOV that the bezels really are less impactful to the view. Any thoughts would be appreciated, and if there is a correct measurement for Bezel free, thats a plus! Thanks for the great content !

Thanks for this video my friend! Currently im running triple 32 inch monitors with a 1000R curve on a SimLabs monitor stand. Currently at 725mm distance. Thanks to this video, i'm going to convert this monitor stand. I'm going to change the legs on the stand and change them out for legs with a motor, so i can change the monitor height on the go. I need this, because my rig is on wheels. I want to be able to move my rig around for cleaning and for changing stuff like pedals (angle) etc. If i want to get my monitors as close to the base as possible, I need the ability to change the height of them easily. So i came up with a solution for this. If this works out I think I might make a video about it so people can benefit from this. Also ordered a Simucube extension (from simracingbay if someone wonders) in the process to complement it all. Oh BTW I also noticed the debounce time on the shifters on 0ms is not working out for me. I changed it to 1ms and then it was fine. The problem I had was that if I wanted to shift up it sometimes causes the shifter to go to N or whatever the game thinks, and rev the shit out of the engine and it did not change gears. So i changed it to 1ms and then: No miss shifts. Hope this helps.

Just built my first rig from a desk mounted G29 to Moza R9. Literally have played under 10 AI races and the difference before to now is massive. Still tweaking however straight off the block this video is literally a game changer. From night to day…awesome!❤

Hi. Could you provide a written instruction on how to apply your method to adjust a single flat monitor?

Much obliged Sir for your time, effort & the wealth of knowledge, your channel has its own vibe, your editing is top notch, background tunes or of the hook, credits are a cool touch & loved the voice filters & loved how all voices where acted out from real individuals. Wish you all the best in your endeavors, God bless you and your family.

So do we use the radius under monitor settings if we have straight triple 27” monitors?

O’boy,,, Duration at 50 thou killed me 🤙🏼🤙🏼💪🏼 just for that had to subscribe. God bless you Sir & your family.

Hello! I'm trying to help some friends but they have the bezel kit and their monitors set to 50º. Is it still possible to put like you explain in the video? You do recomment 60º-65º.

Now THIS is Podracing!

This is interesting but damn I spent so long getting everything to the mm. I don’t even know how I would get 630mm distance without my uprights of my profile rig being in the way?! I am at 585mm atm and 184 FOV and I have some extenders on. I’m at -3 shift horizon as well.

Hey m8 , great vid. Ive watched a few times now and are about to go down this path. One thing i have noticed and would like some clarification on is you have your monitors set at a single screen resolution in the iracing ui ,is this due to you treating the whole setup as a single screen? Cheers from Oz

I just read that the laser point settings do nothing except on tech tracks, and don't affect force feedback. Same on the shifter delay. The initial shift is immediate but it doesn't allow for another accidental shift in that allotted time. Where did you get the information on the laser scan settings from. There's so much conflicting info out there.

1:27 Virginia is for Racing Lovers XDXD

Just found your channel and appreciate the videos. Would really appreciate one of getting force feedback setup on whatever wheel we have to be realistic! If you get around to it of course :)

I'm a new sim racer and just ordered my entire setup, which I'm now waiting for. While browsing through setup videos, I came across this one and was wondering if I should start with the default settings (except for things like monitor angle, eye distance to the monitor, bezel width, etc.) and fine-tune them later, or would you recommend adjusting the settings according to your approach from day one?

What is the point of doing the calculation @29:37 if we arent even using that number (measuring distance between side monitors? Or the better quesiton...at what point DO we use that number?

Oh dear🤦‍♂️

I just set my rig up with your method. I just want to say thank you. It's absolutely brilliant. You don't know what you are missing until you do this and see the difference. Sensational!

This worked well for my Triples. I have since sold them and back to a 57" ultrawide. Does your tutorial still apply to a single 57" 1000R monitor? And if so, what changes are needed for the single monitor?

All of this applies to single monitor?

I am new to all this so my rig Trak Racer T80 with Triple monitor add on arms + triple 32" Tuf 1440p 1500 radius monitors. So I am sitting 28" away and what angle should my monitors be? I am going to move monitors 4 or 5 inches closer to the DD base/wheel so say 23 1/2 inches to 24 inches away from the center monitors. What should my angle be for side monitors. 32" screen 0.16mm bezel monitors Asus VG32VQ1B. HELP

Thanks for this, was wondering why there was some latency on my dbox for shifting.

Кевин, тебе нужна подвижная платформа, дружище!)

Кевин, привет! Я из России, смотрю таком видео и очень давно подписан на такой канал, желаю тебе удачи! У тебя один из самых прекрасных кокпитов, которые я только видел! Как мне сделать тоже самое не знаю…но очень хочется…

Does this video targets towards users using triple monitor setups only? I have no simrig because of lacking space at home. I also have only one monitor 32" curved. When I prep myself for playing iRacing, I pull the monitor as close to my front as I can and put my wheel in front of it. Behind i´m sitting in a comfortable chair and my eye distance is about what you have shown here in the video, well mostly and it may differ of course. I run a FOV of 55° and adjust the cockpit of each car using the ingame camera settings X-0.250 to comensate a little. If I would run 45° I would only see barely nothing of the cockpit dashes anymore. I really enjoyed watching your video. Greate voice and also some cool humour in it. I didn´t even know that you can still adjust things in the render.ini file. Thanks for that :)
