    Question External view on extra monitor?

    Is it possible to have a set up similar to this:

    1. Station set up for the driver - Triple Screen
    2. Extra screen that displays an external view - for spectating?

    (I have sli cards, so 4 HDMI slots)

    The only way i can think of doing this is to have 2 copies of Project Cars, and create a server, 2 players join (2 separate PC's, 2 separate Steam accounts), both join but one is spectating only (camera set on the actual 'player).
    This would mean purchasing a second copy of Project Cars, to simply view.

    Something Like a Project Cars 'View Client' via UDP (new product right there - hint hint)

    Reason for this, I am having a BBQ this weekend, and am going to run some time trials, and want to put a large screen up on the Patio to show the current players driving skills

    Thoughts appreciated.

    Cheers

    You cannot do multiple views at the same time from a single instance of pCARS unfortunately.

    Its a shame you cannot do this, I really do see a market though for a pCARS 'View Client', ie another style of licence at a cheaper cost, the main purpose being you cannot 'play' with this licence, but it will give you separate views (something we do in the software we make).

    Either way I sucked it up and bought another licence - pics to follow

    BBQ went well out of interest - not very fast lap times for the non 'gamers' but good fun nonetheless:
