The computer/HDTV setup I game on has been just fine with other DX11 games, such as ARMA 3, but when I try using DX11 on iRacing I get a black screen. I brought the computer out to the living room and connected it in the same way to the HDTV there, loaded DX11 iRacing, and it all works like a charm.
Computer + Gaming HDTV + ARMA 3 (and other DX11 games) = Works
Computer + Gaming HDTV + iRacing DX9 = Works
Computer + Gaming HDTV + iRacing DX11 = Black Screen
Computer + Living room HDTV + iRacing DX11 = Works
I don't get it, I am so lost.
Is there maybe a minimum resolution needed for DX11?
Any ideas?

Probably a silly question, but have you checked your tv input selection? Most HDTVs have 2 or more hdmi inputs, seems it's the only way to get a black screen.

I have, although I can switch between ARMA 3, which I can see, and iRacing in DX11, which I can't without touching anything setup-wise. I have no problems with DX11 in any other game. Maybe a reinstall of iRacing?

I'm having the same exact problem. I reverted to DX9 because DX11 reverts to only single screen. Can't run triples with DX11...just odd.

My triples worked in dx11, but I went back to dx9 because 11 was a tad stuttery. Perhaps I need to upgrade my graphics card, radeon 6970hd.

Ok, I think I have things together now. Too bad it took me most of the afternoon to get it.

Joe, what did you do?
Clicking on triple screens option in the sim does nothing. It's a desktop resolution problem...DX9 will accept any resolution size, but DX11 will only go to 1920.
I've even tried the trick of editing the .ini file someone in the forums suggested. No dice.

The first thing was a dumb thing. The sim readjusted the resolution it ran at when I switched to DX11, so I changed that and BLAM-O it worked. Then, the resolution on my tv started to act up. I am on top of it, but it still wants to change resolutions on me. I am not really sure what that is about.
As for triples, I am not sure. I run a single, lonely monitor.
That is about all I have. I am still wrestling with some issues as well, but it is workable now. Wish I had more for you. I will keep an eye out for news though.

Recent hotfix by iRacing fixed all DX11 issues.
