TrackIR 5 / Saitek X52 issue
Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2011 7:03 pm
I have a TrackIR 5 and Saitek X52 joystick (and running Win 7-64 bit)
My issue is that a cannot map a button to the joystick that centers the TrackIR view. For example, if 'F12' is the center command, I'll map that key to a button on the joystick, run TrackIR, and the mapped joystick button will not center the view. Pressing the actual 'F12' key does center it.
I've tried several combinations of center keys and joystick mappings, but cannot get it to work. This also happens in several games (IL2 and DCS:A-10 for example). The head tracking works fine in the game. The mapped key commands for the game work on the X52. But the mapped TrackIR center command on the joystick doesn't affect the tracking (although pressing the actual key does).
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
