Triple Monitors without nVidia Surround
I have just decided to have another crack at Raceroom so installed it again and went through process of setting everything up only to find that for some reason I cannot find the aspect ratio of 48:9 any more. I have selected the radio button for triples and set to Windowed (also tried Full Screen and Borderless) but 48:9 doesn't come up as an option even if I exit and restart the game. So my 3 screens come up on one screen. Guess I'll have to abandon trying Raceroom again. I can't set a custom resolution of 7680 by 1440 on my PC as It just shuts down and restarts if I try so that method won't work for me either. The 48:9 solution has worked for me in the past, can't quite understand it?

I have got this working now.... I resurrected 3 cheap 1080p monitors that I hadn't used for a while and all 3 monitors are exactly the same in every respect. I had replaced them with three newer monitors , two 4K monitors 60Hz and one 1440p 144Hz monitor. I was running them all at 1440p. These were the ones I couldn't get a custom resolution set up for. Maybe the mixture was the reason or maybe it was something I did differently but with the 3 identical monitors I was able to set a triple monitor custom resolution set up and then the 48:9 aspect ratio was there to be chosen. Just goes to show that sometimes upgrading is not the best idea :)

been there and done that.. i couldn't get it to work without work arounds that still didnt work for me. it wasn't until nvida surround started working one day. i assume from an update, that i was able to get R3E to see my tripples. the funny thing is that i think raceroom looks best with triples over my other sims.

It happened to me. the aspect ratio only appeared again in full screen mode.
