So.. got all my goodies in and setup my sim over Thanksgiving yesterday. Garage has 10.5 foot ceilings. I have a 10x10 impact screen and am trying to keep my entire footprint on the floor between 12x10 and 12x12 (running turf about a foot past ends of screen on each side). I'm standing about 8 feet out from screen currently when I hit. I purchased everything from Allsportsystems and they suggested the Optoma 305ST.
I'm currently using an iPad air with a lightning to HDMI adapter for Skytrak software and WGT until I can save up for a gaming laptop and TGC which I would guess will be a year down the road from now. When I run it at 4:3 my picture is stretched and looks awful... also the top of the display that should be showing from the game is cut off despite having another 1 feet of space on my impact screen (notice WGT title in top left is not fully visible)
If I put it in 16:9 I have perfect width and am missing about 3 feet top to bottom but it's appropriate size in terms of no stretch and displays everything .... it's as if 16:9 is actually 4:3.... weird huh??
Lastly if I do native it looks like it would be 16:9 as I'm missing tons of display left to right...
So.... ipad supposedly runs in 4:3 yet by choosing that with projector it's crap... then, choosing 16:9 it's as if it's 4:3 and choosing native is as if it's 16:9... does this make any sense ????
Lastly- this isn't an HD projector but I was told my Allsportsystems this was a solid setup- I feel it's quite pixalized and I'll be published visually for that down the road when I use TGC software... what would you do? Swap to an HD projector or...?
If you can assist with my mess that would be awesome!
PS this is the most fun I've ever had - played over 4 hours of WGT yesterday- if only you could play multiplayer as we had to take turns hole by hole.. still a blast !!!
