Question 1

What about replays?

Accepted Answer

There you’re better off turning it off, with the same key you turn it on with: the replay camera does things the mod doesn’t follow. Driving, which is where it matters, it’s fine.

Question 2

Do I need NVIDIA Surround?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. The mod works on the wide three screen desktop, whether you build it with Surround, with Eyefinity or in software. The only thing that changes is where the HUD ends up: in fullscreen it is drawn centred on the middle monitor, and in borderless window it stretches across all three. If you use SimHub, none of this affects you.

Question 3

How much performance does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Every object is drawn three times instead of once, so it does cost something. In DiRT Rally 2.0, with this same technique and the same optimisations, the drop stayed under 10%. I haven’t measured it that carefully here yet: if you see an odd drop, tell me, with your card and your resolution.

Question 4

Does it work on an ultrawide?

Accepted Answer

I haven’t tested it, so I can’t promise anything. In theory, setting the side angle to 0 should work reasonably well: you would get one correct perspective instead of three. If you try it, let me know how it went.

Question 5

Can I get banned?

Accepted Answer

DiRT Rally (2015) is not listed as VAC secured on its Steam page, and when I took the game apart to build this, no anti-cheat turned up either. The mod sits between the game and DirectX 11 through 3Dmigoto, a public tool used to modify graphics for over ten years, and rewrites the shaders so each monitor gets its own camera. It never reads or writes game memory, doesn’t touch physics or timing, automates nothing and sends nothing over the network: it changes how the image is drawn on your machine, and that is all. Even so, my recommendation is to use it offline or in Time Trial, which is how I use it. Not because it gives you an advantage, but because in a league everyone decides what they race with, and that decision should be yours. And the way out is one file away: if you ever want the game exactly as it shipped, just delete d3d11.dll from its folder.

Question 6

Where do I enter my rig measurements?

Accepted Answer

In the app, on the Screens page: eye distance to the middle monitor, panel width, side angle, resolution and bezel. Those measurements are what the three cameras are built from. One thing to keep in mind: DiRT Rally (2015) is set up separately from 2.0, with its own values. It doesn’t inherit what you saved over there.

Question 7

Is there one for other games?

Accepted Answer

Yes: DiRT Rally 2.0 and EA SPORTS WRC are available, and F1 25, Forza Horizon 6 and Wreckfest are in beta, each with its own app. Every game is a different engine and takes the whole job again: it is not copy and paste. They are all here.

Question 8

I came from VR, is it worth going back to triples?

Accepted Answer

For me yes, and I own both. VR is stunning for the first few minutes, but it gets tiring and uncomfortable. With the perspective properly worked out, triple screen holds up over long sessions without a headache. It is a preference, but it is mine after trying both.
