The ULTIMATE Triple Monitor Setup Guide for EA WRC!

EA Sports WRC is finally here, and as we all had been wary of, it's lacking in native triple monitor support. This tutorial is the perfect workaround to not only get your triples working, but get them dialed in to your specific setup. The only drawback is you have to launch SRWE every time you play the game, but it's better than NVIDIA Surround in my opinion so it's worth it
Even though it lacks native triple support, it feels amazing on triples with these tunes, and I hope you guys love it as much as I do.
Pro Tip: Do these steps IN ORDER! With SRWE, it will not work without that.

you dont have to add the bezel width. its correct that objects are hidden behind the bezel. and also the FOV slider is set wrong. the tooltip says that 0 ingame is 18° and 100 is 68°. so you have to calculate what slider-setting is the 34°.

[@punjew]

Have you tried this yet?? Curious what your results would be

[@punjew]

If my math is correct, each “degree” is represented by an increase of 2 on the slider. So you’d take the number from Modern FOV, subtract that by 18 as the base value, then multiply that by 2 and that’s the number of your FOV. That makes sense why mine is close close, because that comes out to 32 on the slider for me

@@punjew i tried triple for a short time, but i dont see any benefits. only a big drop in performance :D

[@punjew]

@@moddok interesting! I really like it personally, I’m all about immersion, I also use VR but I like triples for the sake of still feeling connected to the world 😅

[@BBRacing_oNE1]

thanks for the answers, can you pls help out how we can calculate that? I will be trying ResizeRacoon, will racoon and do the bezel correction automatically line runtimeEditor?

[@Nothing2NV]

other videos use this method but they never explained i need to have it running in windowed borderless. this was the perfect vid, thanks

[@punjew]

Thanks man! Glad it worked for you 🙏🙏

[@Nothing2NV]

The only issue I’ve found is that I have to run the runtime editor each time I launch the game.

[@punjew]

@@Nothing2NV that’s correct, that’s part of it sadly. You can also try a program called Resize Raccoon, easier program that does the same thing. But ya you’ll always have to run it sadly

[@tradesman1000]

Nice work mate 👍🏻

[@PassodopoPasso]

Thx mate, good advice 👍

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

The guy from project X is making sim racing vids now ? Fire 🔥

[@MrJoppashoppa]

i basicly did the same thing. Only without the "windows runtime" program. But just used nvidia surround. Is there a bennifit for me to change to windows runtime program? I think it is playeble like this. But we still need the angel correction triple render stuff to really use triple like it should be used.

[@punjew]

Honestly I just like SRWE because it takes WAY less setup and tear down time. With surround, you have to basically change your whole PCs display settings to accommodate just the game, vs SRWE you just launch the game and edit that application and then when you close out you just go about business as usual

[@kenny8076]

As soon as you started diving i saw it stutter a couple times. One was really noticable. Unless my eyes were tricking me. I did the triple settings through nvidia and was stuttering like crazy even on medium settings with ryzen 9 and 2070 super. I was getting decent frames, in the 80s bit stuttering like crazy. 1 monitor im back to 110fps on mixture of high and ultra settings. I think the stuttering is more an optimization issue that a hardeare/graphics one.

[@punjew]

Ya that was on the OG build, however since updates the stuttering is mostly gone. There was one setting (I don't remember which now) that I changed that got rid of all of it immediately, and now I play WRC on triples daily with no issue. Jump in my stream and I will try to find that graphic setting for you 🫡

[@arod187]

Thx for the vid. Do you think the SRWE program would help for less distorted image on super ultrawide monitors (32:9) as well?

[@punjew]

It definitely might, worth giving a try! Just tweak to that aspect ratio, since you have 2x a normal widescreen 16:9, instead of multiplying your resolution width by 3, try multiplying by 2

[@kingkabong]

fyi, the scale on the fov slider in-game isn't actual... the scale is from 18 to 68 degrees, so setting to 34, you're not getting 34 degrees fov. Pretty close, but anyway, odd they chose to do the fov UI this way, but ya.

[@punjew]

I noticed this, but I think its still accurate. I play mainly iRacing and the FOV feels super close to that which is computer calculated the same way

[@FulLShoT]

hey there! At 06:09 your wheel on screen just disapear, what settings did your turn off? Cockpit driver & wheel ?

[@punjew]

That’s correct! It’s a personal preference, some people like it on but since I stream that over the shoulder POV, it feels redundant to have it. I also see people use it though to help line up the view with their seat height

[@ironmarshall1963]

I 've bound the seat movement keys as you have. I go into car during a race and I press the keys but nothing happens ... the seat just doesn't move ! What am I doing wrong ?? I need to adjust the view but cant !

[@punjew]

Make sure youre on head camera. There are 2 in cockpit camera views, one is like a stock cockpit and the other is head (hard to tell the difference if you don’t adjust head)

[@TaylorDCFC2]

am I dreaming punjew has made a video

[@punjew]

About damn time right? 😅

[@RivanovNL]

Your FOV is incorrect. The game runs from 18 degrees vFOV when set to 0 up to 68 degrees vFOV when set to 100. It clearly says that on the right hand side. So setting it to 34 isn’t 34 degrees vFOV. 34 is 17 degrees vFOV in-game.

[@punjew]

I realized this in post (game was brand new when I filmed it) actually have a comment thread below addressing it :) I’ll pin it to the top of

[@BBRacing_oNE1]

thanks for that answer bro, can I ask you how did you calculate that vFOV?

[@haraldjohansen1867]

I have a strange problem: My main screen runs smooth 60fps but my side screens seems to be running at 20fps or something. What could be causing this?

[@punjew]

Is this using SRWE?? What graphics settings in game are you running?

[@haraldjohansen1867]

@@punjew I'm using SRWE. Medium all over the board, but graphic settings do not change the issue at all. It's really weird because I can't find anyone else that has this problem.

I spent maybe 8-10 hours trying to get AMD eyefinity to work on my 6900xt at 4k, it just will not fire up the screens at triple 4k resolution, I did get triples up starting at 1920x1080 @ 60hz but AMD defaults to 12228x2160 @24hz with eyefinity but I don't think this was true resolution with borderless windowed even though the game says in basic graphics it was 12228. This SRWE however makes the best of a bad job by EA for not optimizing the game, but it annoys me that I have 4k quality available to me but I'm having to play at 1080p. Roll on the VR update so I can get back to real immersion. I tried the github version but after unzipping it I couldn't find a way to run it. I downloaded it from somewhere else, and that I was able to use.

[@punjew]

Man that sucks, ya it’s one of those making the best of a bad situation. For sure. I hope that update comes soon, they say future triple support as well so maybe there is hope for native support?

[@trevorjlewis]

Hey, sorry to bother you. Can you confirm that once applied to the game and stretched across the 3 screens that the selected resolution is the actual resolution the game is playing in? I did some tweaks today in Display settings, I realised since the upgrade from a 1080TI PC to this new build with 6900xt that I hadn't bothered with setting other resolutions in display settings. My pc now after some tweaks is firing up in 3840x2160 at 60hz. So I figured lets try this program again, I fired up the game then set 11520x2160 in SRWE and the game stretched out across all three screens and look pin sharp, really looks to be a 4k picture now instead of the blurry/fluffy 1020x1080 I had yesterday. Am I truly playing at 4k? Getting a little under 60 fps at high preset in graphics.

[@punjew]

@@trevorjlewis you should be yes! Thats awesome you got it fixed, how awesome does it look and feel?!

[@trevorjlewis]

Oh it's crystal clear now and the draw distance is amazing. I'm just testing on a short stage in Greece ling hill into hairpin left you can see the corner from 200 yards away clear as anything. The physics feel great, I took a Ford Focus WRCar like a 2004 the progression of grip through corner putting on the gas and feeling the steering wheel tightened up as the power feeds in. I had maybe 1200 hours in Dirt 2.0 I don't remember smiling or laughing to myself through stages like this.

[@punjew]

In my case, I change the fov on game preferences and not change anything and the same with seat cam. I can't move the camera

Double check you’re on head cam. There is an in car camera that looks like it but is not head cam

You might be on the wrong camera (this is really dumb I know) there are 2 “cockpit” looking cameras, cycle through the camera angles until you get the right one

bro is 1px really 1mm? you said 8mm are 8px are you sure?

Hmm?? Can you reference a time for this? I don’t remember that 😅 could have been a weird way of me translating something, but for sure 1 pixel is not 1mm

[@CapEm16]

Following all the same steps, my side screens stretch...

[@punjew]

How much?? And what resolution are you on natively? The only time that’s happened was when I did full screen rather than borderless, if you’ve got 16 x 9 ratio it shouldn’t stretch, if it does only hardly

[@danieldulberg2167]

Side screens will always stretch unless EA will implement proper triple screen support that allows to adjust side monitor angles, bezel thickness and monitor measurements. Using SRWE or Nvidia Surround can give you some decent results, but nothing like you would achieve on iRacing, ACC etc.

[@punjew]

@@danieldulberg2167 you are correct, but for WRC specifically, idk why but SRWE if it is stretching is so minimal I genuinely can’t tell. And I play a lot of iRacing 😅

[@danieldulberg2167]

@@punjew for me on triple 27" it stretches a lot, and when it doesn't the sense of speed and the dimensions feel totally incorrect :D. But using the bonnet cam makes it acceptable for me.

Yeah, it stretches on my set like all the non real triple support solutions do. Sad.
