    Recently got a 4th mini screen as a dash for SimHub but with that to the addition, it's been giving me an issue relating to the triple monitor mode.

    I've gotten around this by simply just unplugging the 4th display and restarting the game. Everything works fine after that. On an unrelated note, this is the same issue for PC2.

    I feel like this is an issue that's just happening for me but I am curious if this is happening to others

    Game won't start in triple screen

    Triple screen adjustment menu, the only center monitor is displaying and nothing else, sometimes I'd be able to see the left and right display adjustments but even when I change the given options and restart, nothing, still single display

    I can provide screenshots if nessicary

    When you say mini screen what sort of screen? Is it HDMI, USB?

    yeah it's an HDMI display for a raspberry pi but can function on its own as a display/monitor

    USB powered, HDMI interface if that helps, windows is reading it as a standalone monitor so I see no reason for it to not work, it's plug and play

    Nope, the issue still persists. I feel like the only way to avoid it is to add a pi-zero and use the screen as another standalone item away from the PC
