TrackIR 5.2 Beta

TrackIR 4.2 Beta
- Added Windows 8 support
- Added support for Prepar3d
- Changed to new installer platform
Please note: The new version is built on a newer version of Installshield than the previous versions of TrackIR, and may not gracefully remove legacy versions. It is recommended that you uninstall previous versions of TrackIR through your control panel before installing 5.2 or 4.2.

Hmmm... I just tested on my Win7 64-bit machine, and the new profile saved just fine. I'll give our support team a head's up.

It appears to work properly when running the TrackIR software as an administrator. We're looking into this as a beta issue to correct for final.
