Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hi guys.

First sorry for mi english, im brazilian and dont speak english very well.

I want to make a screen for 3 projectors, these are the dimensions of my room:


(Quero colocar a tela nessa parede = I Want to put the screen in this wall)

I did this project showing the location of the projectors, however I intend to sit down to 2 ~ 2.5m distance from the screen, I wonder how many degrees should I do with the curve of the screen!?




In the design i used 40ft of radius for the curve screen, however seeing the printscreens of projects forum members i'm thinking it no would be ideal.

How many degrees should I make the screen?

Hi Cavera,

Your English seems fine to me!

Personally, I would make the screen more curved than that. That looks almost flat to me if you see what I mean. I guess it depends on what you want the screen for, is it for movies, or games, or work? That would help to work out the best sort of screen for you.

Hi benjimoron

The main activity would be the games, but also watch movies and eventually plan some mechanic drawing, but the focus is on games.

I thought of using the radius equal the distance that I would be sitting from the screen, in this case I used 2.5 m, only as reference i still did not get to use a screen like that, but I think I'll end up sitting more closer to her.



you think this radius would already be good?

Can I do it with a radius larger or smaller, this is no problem, but wanted an opnion from someone who has experience so I can make sure.

Thank you: D
