Have you activated vector?
You'll find it under Help in the track-ir program.
Also make sure you got the latest version of the Track-Ir software.

Hi connan, what version of the drivers are you using? It is best to ignore the drivers on the disk and just use the latest ones on the web site.

If you open the profile for GTR in the top window, you are correct for some reason only the Yaw and Pitch are shown as supported !

Now if you open in the bottom window the profile that is used to open the GTR from the top window (Racing is the default) and make sure that head, guages and tracking windows are open. Is all the directions in the Guages winow blue? If so just run GTR and full 6DoF will work no matter what the top says.
If not then follow these steps:-
Make sure that GTR in the top window is using 'Racing' just click on the typr and a popup will give you a selection of profiles.
Select 'Racing' in the bottom window.
Select 'Edit'.
Make sure that Vector is selected.
Click all axis in 'Enabled'.
Click 'OK'.

This will enable all 6 axis for Racing when using the Vector. If a racing game comes out that supports TIR and the Vector eg GT Legends then all you will need to do in future is to make the Auto Load to Racing and run TIR then the game.

Enjoy

Thank you for your replies, it works now. I've created a new profile with all 6DOF enabled and it does it.

Thanks again
