TrackIR mix Left / right and up / down view

Post by frentzen2000 »

Hi TrackIR Specialist,
last week I got TrackIR and today FB. Now I have a little problem. While TrackIR works absolutely fine in IL2 I have now the problem that TrackIR mixed the left - right and up - down view. Means when my head moves left the view goes right. The same problem I have with looking up and down. And that in both modes, Mouse and absolute mode.

Who can help me, I am desperate now because so far I felt in love with FB.

Thanks and best regards

Well, the quick fix is to go to the tracking screen and click on both "Invert X" and "Invert Y". Normally the dots should both be grey rather than blue. Make sure you're running the latest driver (2.01b). If you have to invert these settings and your tIR unit is properly mounted in the upright position, I don't know what would cause that.

If you're basing this on the movement of the yellow dot on the tracking screen, then it's working OK, i.e. you look left and the yellow dot moves right. When in the game, the view should match your head movements, in this case your head and on-screen view both moving the same direction.

Phalcon51 , thanks for your response. But this didn�t fix the problem. Finally I removed FB and the TrackIR software and reinstall both
programms. Now it is working fine!

Best regards

HHF:

I saw your post over at SimHQ, you mentioned Qualifying for Malaysia. I, of course, am in love with F1 so I will be watching live on Speed Channel via satellite. Are you by chance the real HHF?

No, I am just a real Fan of HHF and based on the Qualifying today I just hope that his cat war full of fuel!
For tomorrow I am pretty sure MS will make it and I guess the Renault has a 2 - 3 stop strategy. Most interresting these days are the fight betweem Villeneuve and Button!!
Happy Racing

Hello:

Yes, love the fight between JV and JB. I really love the fact that JB out qualified JV yesterday.

I think the new qualifying rules ruin the stats for the sport, MS should have had pole, meaning that he would have had all poles at Malaysia since the start in '99.

My bet is that the rules will be fixed within 6 races.

Go MS!
