<t>I've given up using Flight. I won't pay for any add-ons until it works with TIR. In the meantime, I'll just stick to FS9, DCS Black Shark, Rise of Flight, and all the other serious flight sims who's developers implemented TIR support. Apart from CFS1 (remember that?), Flight is the only one I kno...

Hi,

Nothing so far.

I gave Flight one more try last night, using the hat switch to pan around, and it was ... still awful! Once you've used TIR, there's no going back.
I hope MS don't do the same as RSC with their Railworks train simulator - RSC practically refuse to acknowledge that TIR even exists.

I wrote to msflight@microsoft.com (I got the address through the "Contact Us" link on Flight's webpage).

I've emailed MS just now to tell them that not having support for TrackIR is a show stopper for me. I hope more people write to them.

Problem solved. Right-click on the TrackIR shortcut, select Properties then Compatibility and tick the box at the bottom, "Run this program as an administrator". After that it works fine.

<t>Hi,<br/> <br/> I've installed FS9.1 and TIR3 v. 4.1 build 37 on a new PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit OS with SP2. At one point I had TIR working fine, but now it's stopped working in FS9. It says "Current game: None" even though I've got FS9 running at the same time. The green light is...

<t>Thanks Combathangar. You were right, it was a heat problem. I installed a programmed from MSI (they make my K8T Neo motherboard) called CoreCenter that monitors temperatures, voltages and fan speeds. In "cool 'n' quiet" mode, it also raises and lowers the fan speeds and currents to keep the tempe...

<t>Sorry, I meant FS9(FS2004/FSACOF) <br/> <br/> Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it, but I have a feeling it won't make a difference. I've got the air-conditioning on in the room, so it's quite cool. Also, I've tried running the sim with and without TrackIR, and the PC crashes only when using TI...

Maybe it's just a coincidence, but ever since I started using VE (I got it yesterday), I've been unable to finish a flight, because the computer crashes (it switches itself off) after a few seconds or minutes into the flight. Any ideas as to what I should do next?
Cheers,
Mike
