You can try using the mouse emulation, but the older software just isn't being updated for the newer applications.

My evaluation of TrackIR in Insurgency is that it is unfinished. Currently, enabling TrackIR will hinder more than help you on the battlefield. Unless your head is completely centered, the gun will not hit where it is aimed. It ruins both aimed shots and from the hip. The best plan is to not enable TrackIR until a patch comes out fixing this issue.

Vincent , how do I configure TrackIR in this game.
I searched all over the internet but it still gives me a headache.
Also there is no blue light like ManassasMan post.
If you found something let us know, thanks!

I've had a play around and it is still very broken, this game should be taken off the supported list. As Catch22 said back in '07 it completely hinders you, and that's if you can get it going (not as easy as the tick box, you have to enable cl_trackir in console), you can't lean and if you look around your gun will no longer shoot straight.

I read on their forums (so just hearsay) that the developer that was working on the TIR for Insurgency has long left, and it is not a priority. Bit of a shame, it was one of the games I bought the TIR for, and was very disappointed that it was so useless.
