    Hi,

    since few updates, i cant get my triple setup to work. And no, i dont want to deactivate Nvidia surround just to drive this sim and activate again, this is not a comfortable solution.

    My only help was, to reinstall the game, and after that, i could change the values even on the side screens. But after the latest update, even this is not a help anymore, i´ve reinstalled it with no success. I tried this excel method, too, but no success.

    Reiza, when do you plan to fix this bug? I know this is not happen often to other racers, but i paid money for this very good sim, but it is undriveable without triple support.

    Please help!

    Best regards

    Triples work for me and I have this sim' on 2 triple setups with different spec' computers. There seems to be a recent biggish bug which seems to pop sporadically where when the race has finished the game freezes and I have to restart the game. I wouldn't be surprised if you have an annoying bug and hopefully someone will answer both your and my bug

    It's not working here anymore either. Rather disappointed given it was working fine a few releases before (surround user as well).
    The triple screen menu sometimes shows three screens.. sometimes not. Also attempted reinstall. Can't say which was the last successful version as I took a break from the game.

    When I enter the numbers the menu always prints them as zeros. Another attempt was modifying the triple screen xml file, but no luck either.

    @Dolphin are you using surround. Does the menu show correct numbers?

    there seems to be an issue with the game not detecting surround setups when more than 3 screens are connected to the machine. Even if surround only uses three and a fourth monitor is not getting any signal, the game will not use the triple setup properly and stretch using a single point of view. By turning off power on the fourth monitor my problem went away and AMS2 does work well with triple screen and gives the appropriate options to configure the sides with angle etc.
