If it's only tracking head rotation (3DoF), then it's fine. But as soon as you change head position (6DoF), the calculated FOV will no longer be correct. It would be really cool if the FOV could update in real time based on your head position, but currently it's not an option AFAIK.

Can't remember off the top of my head, but it's nothing special. I just set it to whatever looks good for each truck.

There's a headcam video on my channel.

Can you be more specific about what the issue is? It would be easiest if you posted a screenshot under my forum post.

I haven't played MSFS, but from what I found, it does have some triple monitor support. The easiest way to get a mathematically correct view is to be centered between all monitors, with them facing you perpendicularly. In the multi-window settings, set the lateral rotation offset to match your monitor angle. Then, you have to set the camera zoom setting, which scales your vertical FOV. You can find a table to convert the setting to an FOV value if you look online. Set it so that the hFOV also matches the monitor angle. So if your side monitor angles are 45°, set the left view's lateral offset to -45, the right view to 45, and the camera zoom to about 86, which is close to 45 hFOV for a 16:9 screen according to the table. To correct for the bezels, slightly increase the zoom or the lateral offsets until it looks right. This setup is similar to multimon mode 2 in ATS/ETS2. If your setup doesn't match that though, such as with mismatched or not centered monitors, there may still be a way to get a mathematically correct view through manipulating the windows. But this is all just guesswork, since I haven't actually played the game.

@@a1337cookie Yeah... the Russ Barlow video (and a few others that suggest and explain the same thing) has the problem that it only tries to understand how msfs multiview works, but it doesn't suggest a working solution. Why, because the basic problem is that you can't change the necessary (sufficient and appropriate parameters) in the game setup, only three, but you can't get good results with those. Only in case you place the three monitors (or more) in a plane, side by side or on top of each other etc. If the two edge monitors are angled with the main monitor it doesn't work anymore. However, in the msfs configuration files (cameras.cfg, userscfg.opt) you can change the parameters you need, but you would need a calculation program like the one you made. Basically there is such a program/software, you can buy it, but just for one setting..I don't know. fly.elise-ng.net/products/ fly.elise-ng.net/wp-content/uploads/documents/calibration/MSFSStepByStepGuide.pdf ...thanks for your time anyway...

It's just ultra graphics settings from the base game, no mods or anything. Or are you referring to something else?

@@a1337cookie because display look gloomy.i like that .and I thought I was a mod. Thanks for reply

Check the guide linked in the description, I have a post all about setting up mismatched resolutions.

Make sure your head position is correct for the values you entered into the calculator. Also, if your monitors are curved, there will be some unavoidable distortion. If those aren't the issue, then you may want to make a post under my guide on the forum and add pictures, I can better help you over there.

@@a1337cookie Thanks for the reply @cookie, I have flat screen. all identical and properly angled at 45º using a protractor and bubble level. I got it working now by using your other calculator which is the "standalone physical calculator" and I got really good results. Minimal warping on top and barely recognizable. My eye level is directly to the center to the center monitor. I use INCHES, and with eye distance to center screen at 19. So, the result is not that really close to the screen. I can see both left & right traffic now and been enjoying it so far. 👍👍

​@@Pixx3l Which calculator did you use before? All the calculators should give the same result, as long as you use the same measurements. If there's a significant difference, then it might be something I need to fix.

@@a1337cookie I was using the Hybrid one before but I think my results are off. I tried putting a value in "Eye distnce to screen center" but my fov is messed up. There might be some values that I missed or skipped. But anyway, thanks for all your effort in making those calculations. Its super helpful and great tool to use. Edit: I think I messed up with my copy of your calculator. I did a new save or copy and everything works now on hybrid. Thanks again @cookie!

@@Pixx3l Thanks for investigating, glad to hear it's all good in the end.

Check my FOV guide again, the calculator has been updated since last time. The advanced calculator supports 4 monitors, follow the steps under the "Advanced Setups" section. Let me know if you have any trouble.

​@@a1337cookieThanks.. I will check the updated calculator.. btw to make sure I will return as well my config file to default since I've changed some fields there to fixed the bezzel alignment. I will post here if I'm successful or If i have any problems! thanks again!

This specific setup doesn't use Nvidia Surround, I used some tricks to stretch the game window across my monitors. That's how I got it to work properly with mismatched resolutions. If you have matching monitors though, you should just use surround. If you're referring to the FOV settings, they will work regardless of whether you're using surround or not.

@@a1337cookie I’m just confused haha I have 42inch tv with a vertical monitor as my right hand Mirror but just struggling to setup with out surround and get it to match

@@PUGHYTHETRUCKER Are you using my mismatched monitors guide? Have you got the game window resized and positioned to cover both screens? Or is the problem with the views not lining up?

@@a1337cookie if I’m honest both I think I can figure out the lining up it’s the covering both screens I’m struggling with

@@PUGHYTHETRUCKER Covering the screens properly is related to the "normalized" multimon settings and what you set in SRWE. SRWE is pretty much trial and error, follow the tips in my guide and you should eventually get it. One tip I want to add is that if you're not using 100% display scaling, you can fix the incorrect pixel numbers by setting SRWE to ignore scaling. Right click the exe, go to properties, compatibility, change high dpi settings, and override scaling behaviour, set it to application. As for the "normalized" multimon settings, they can be tricky to calculate. I made a calculator that makes this much easier, but it's not released yet. If you can't figure it out, tell me your screen resolutions and the y position of the side monitor (go to NCP, set up multiple displays, then drag monitor to see position), and I'll calculate it for you.

That is expected, that's how realistic FOV should look. Decrease eye distance value if you need more FOV. Read the section in my guide named "compensating for low FOV" for more info.

@@a1337cookie Ok thanks

@@a1337cookie And can I somehow turn off wide scaling (idk how to say that, i mean: on center monitor are objects wider on the right side than in the middle and on right monitor are normal on the left side so it's unrealistic when it is some object moving through both monitors when it is wide and suddenly it is normal again). And the same is on right monitor where is game too wide on left side. I hope you understand what i mean. But otherwise is this FOV very good.

@@fantomasgaming3449 The view will only be mathematically correct when your head position matches what you put into the calculator. Keep your head there and it will not look stretched. Or maybe you have curved monitors? The curve will distort the view a bit, there's nothing I can do about that. I personally avoid curved monitors for that reason.

@@a1337cookie Yes, I have curved monitors and I posted video for you to see how it exactly looks (last clip is about the right side of right monitor) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXWXfHqrl6p5Y5o I just want to be sure that it is problem with curved monitors and it can't be fixed.

If the visualization diagrams look good, then maybe you didn't set horizontal_fov_relative_offset to 0? Also try copy paste from the calculator output straight to the multimon file to ensure you didn't make any typos. If it's still wrong and you want to send pictures, add a reply under my guide on the roextended forum, creating an account is free. I'd prefer not to share my personal discord, sorry.

@@a1337cookie yes I already signed up ..and totally understand your reason about dc. thank you so much! will post my issue on the website! :)

Did you use the calculator that's linked in my guide? If you did and it's still not right, tell me specifically what's wrong with the view and I can help you fix it.

@@a1337cookie yes I tried the calculator but I think I really dont understand it sorry. However I managed to make it work by trial and error using these settings SiiNunit { multimon_config : _nameless.04A6.56A8 { normalized_ui_x: 0.000000 normalized_ui_width: 1.000000 monitors: 2 monitors[0]: _nameless.0714.5590 monitors[1]: _nameless.0714.5618 } monitor_config : _nameless.0714.5590 { name: center normalized_x: 0.000000 normalized_y: 0.000000 normalized_width: 0.500000 normalized_height: 1.000000 horizontal_fov_relative_offset: 0.000000 vertical_fov_relative_offset: 0.000000 heading_offset: 5.000000 pitch_offset: 0.000000 roll_offset: 0.000000 camera_space_offset: (0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000) horizontal_fov_override: 90.000000 vertical_fov_override: 60.000000 frustum_subrect_x: 0.000000 frustum_subrect_y: 0.000000 frustum_subrect_width: 1.000000 frustum_subrect_height: 1.000000 render_interior: true render_exterior: true } monitor_config : _nameless.0714.5618 { name: right normalized_x: 0.500000 normalized_y: 0.000000 normalized_width: 0.500000 normalized_height: 1.000000 horizontal_fov_relative_offset: 0.000000 vertical_fov_relative_offset: 0.000000 heading_offset: -35.000000 pitch_offset: 0.000000 roll_offset: 0.000000 camera_space_offset: (0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000) horizontal_fov_override: 112.000000 vertical_fov_override: 43.500000 frustum_subrect_x: 0.536650 frustum_subrect_y: 0.000000 frustum_subrect_width: 0.463350 frustum_subrect_height: 1.000000 render_interior: true render_exterior: true } } Then I manually adjust the head view cam (F4) to more upward looking to align the dashboard of the car (mod) on the 2 monitors. I was able to make it somewhat right. I managed to fixed the bezel issue i think by playing around heading_offset on both monitors. Now i dont have stretch and duplicate object in bezel. Whenever the object hits the bezel it disappear base on its size. (I cant explain sorry for my English) XD now my concern is the second monitor is a little bit angled to front like -10 degrees and the object on 2nd monitor is a little bit far compared to 1st monitor (not noticeable when I drive fast) I want to adjust it a little bit of angle/degree towards me so that the dashboard/rearviewmirror and the actual monitor view align with the FOV . hope u can help me to fix the remaining concerns :)

@@yshish5286 If you're trying to manually tweak the multimon file, you will have a lot of trouble. Use the calculator instead and tweak the inputs until it looks right. Pay attention to the visualization diagram and make sure it matches your setup. If the bezels aren't lining up, make sure you're not using bezel correction in Nvidia surround, and tweak the bezel widths in the calculator.

Different sized monitors can be tuned in this way, follow my guide in the description.

All monitors in the video are 27 inch.
