Solutions & Issues
The game is natively Hor+/Vert- but there's a better solution:
Right-click on the game in your Steam library > Properties > Set launch options...
-SetFOV=xx
Where xx is determined by your aspect ratio:
AR >>> FOV
4:3 >>> 60 (default)
16:10 >>> 68
16:9 >>> 69
15:9 >>> 68.4
Select your desired resolution on the config launcher's Settings tab.
The cab view's zoom toggle is unaffected and remains Hor+/Vert-.
Same method, suggested values:
AR >>> FOV
15:4 >>> 63.8
48:10 >>>66.5
48:9 >>> 68.5
Don't forget to select Monitor Arrangement 3x1 on the Settings tab.
Bezel-compensated resolutions are not detected by the config launcher, but can be manually set in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\WrapperSettings.xml
