Computer spec looks ok for me. What is the relation between Assetto Corsa and Win7 64-bit?

 

[Jorge Alves]

I also think its a triple screen view ... looks weard because of the video camera ... the monitors are also twisted .... maybe the camera man wanted to make a artistic video

With the spate of sims coming out, it's probably a good time to upgrade our PC's....I'd like to keep mine for another 6 months or so, but after that, no problem upgrading as sims can be used for years.

Let's use this thread to discuss the news only. For other discussions, like system specs etc, create a new thread please

I'm not 100% sure but I think this is a triple view and not an image dragged onto three screens.
You can clearly see where the middle screen ends and the front of the car doesn't stretch onto the side screens.

Check the front fenders. The one to the right.

EDIT: Deleted as I realised I'm not supposed to discuss specs. Sorry, Bram...

 

[Jamie Shorting]

Those specs seem surprisingly low... (Except for GPU)

Maybe I can actually run this sim at a playable frame rate!

Probably because there is only one car on the track.

edit: original video already posted here

I did and that's why I'm pretty sure this is a triple screen setup and not a stretched image.

well you can see the right hand fender being very stretched due to the driver sitting on the left.

This doesn´t happen with render each screen separately. Also notice the windscreen wiper.
It increases it´s size enormously as it goes further out to the right.

Edit: here´s a screen of the video. Notice how everything on the right increases in size rapidly.
And you can see the fenders are not lining up, thus not in proportion, thus not render each screen separately.

The right side should look very similar to left and middle screen but it doesn´t.

Here´s a comparison from iRacing, notice how you can draw a line right through all screens and it would line up pretty much perfectly.

Hampus ... i really think its the effect caused by the video camera ... i would risk to say it was filmed with a eye-fish lent to make a 3D effect ... its not only the screen image that is streched ... it also steched the monitors and the picture on the wall

The camera doesn´t know what it´s taking a picture of.
If the camera stretches the image then it will stretch everything not just the game.

LOL ... thats what i said mate ... it also streched the monitors and the picture on the wall

It haven´t actually. Everything looks in proportion outside the screens.
You have to compare the level of stretching in game to the stretching IRL in the video.

Ok ... i will not arguing anymore ... your eyes obviously can see what mines cant

+1 on that one. The front fenders in-game tell the full story.

The camera can´t magically hide part of the right front fender behind the screen.
They should be in proportion to each other as if you would draw a line across the screens.

In short, a camera might skew the image but it can´t skew the FOV in-game.

 

[Olivier Prenten]

I'm really looking forward the release of this AC!
Thumbs up Kunos!!!

i agree with you Hampus but can't you notice the different outside the screens? i can too, personally i think it's both, the camera doesn't help and yes the game is stretched.

do you not notice the right screen at the top? the black line is bent,

Yea you can see the right side is slightly bent as well, however it´s not that much.

yes the right side screen is streteched, i agree with you, you're point is valid however Jorge's point is also valid, the camera seems to be a problem to.
