Hi all,
I try to activate Trackir in Flight simulator 2004, but there's no way to make it work.
I tried also to install shareware version of Active Camera but in this mode I can use only the mouse to pan the view.
How can I do?
Thanx

Re: Trackir in Flight Simulator 2004 doesn't work
Which version of the TrackIR software are you running?
Whenever you Start a flight, you must right click on the view and select "virtual cockpit."
How to fix the conflict between TrackIR and Active camera 2004
First of all TrackIR generates its own head latency, which is natural. If Active Camera 2004 is installed its head latency is counteracting with TrackIR�s natural head movement (one program is fighting the other).
If you use TrackIR along with Active Camera 2004 then simply disable the Active Camera 2004 head latency option - which then makes an interesting use of the view presets, which is a nice complement to TrackIR.
In Spot plane view Active Camera 2004 and TrackIR are working perfectly together. The same can be said for external pilot view (easy to pan with TrackIR and walk with the number pad keys).

Re: Trackir in Flight Simulator 2004 doesn't work
I'm using Trackir 2 with default cd drivers.
Active Camera is in shareware version, but I install AC2004 only to make a proof, really I don't need it and as far as I know Trackir works with or without AC2004 (maybe)
How Can I use Trackir without AC?
Obviously I set always the Virtual Cockpit, but my head movement doesn't pan the view in FS2004.
Pratically with AC2004 activated I can only pan the view with mouse pressing the middle button-wheel.

TrackIR will work just fine without Active Camera.
Make sure you are running the latest version of the software, for your hardware.
For the TrackIR 2, please use this version here.
