Track IR 180deg = 270 deg in DCS:WH!

[shamandgg]

I have to repost this here, since I do not know whether it is TIR software problem, or flight sim problem.

Here's the issue:

There's something definately wrong here with YAW control of head-view in DCS: Warthog.
It is not related to curves in TIR software at all.
I noticed that the 180 degree (6 o'clock) position in TIR software corresponds in DCS:WH to 270 degree position (in case of right head turn, you end up on 9 o'clock).

This is absolutely weird and creates even more hassle.
F.e. I have locked my TIR to stop at 180 degree position... in other sims it works great, but in DCS:WH, I keep overturning my head around 6 o'clock like an owl. So weird...

I am using 5.1.200 version of software - full release (build 9414).

I get the same thing too in Black Shark.

In both Black Shark and A10, ED has opted to scale the data that they receive from TrackIR. So, whatever you're accustomed to a profile doing in another title--it will be amplified in those two. I'd recommend creating a custom profile for those games, so you can take that in-game scaling into account.

I've also heard that you can adjust the scaling in your DCS options settings, so you don't have to create a new TrackIR profile. I haven't tested this, but you might check with ED on the possibility. This could prove to be a better solution.
