Thank you! Thank you!

Can't wait to get back into FSX with TrackIR.

I know I'm impatient, but it makes a huge difference to the immersion factor of sim flying.

We are currently working on some driver issues before releasing the update.

Thanks for the new release! Still testing things out and don't want to jinx anything (shouldn't have said that), but so far, so good!

I'm back in the FSX driver seat!

Despite improved usability with the current drivers, I find Track IR continues to be jumpy and still at times causes FSX to crash. Better than the previous driver, but I'm at the point where it is so buggy that the "simulation effect" is lost rather quickly.

Any chance of drivers using the "Pipes" technology as suggested in various flight sim forums?

The latest software/drivers, 4.1.034, do use the 'pipe' technology of FSX.

Any add-ons installed for FSX?

You have sp2/acceleration installed?

What do you have smoothing option set to?

Hi Vincent,
thanks for your quick response - sorry we are at it again...

Track IR does not work reliably even without add ons.
Using SP2/acceleration, but same problems at every install point - FSX/SP1/SP2

tried various smoothing options - recommendations?

when TrackIr works, it's great, but just did a fresh install and still causes FSX to crash - first it's jumpy, then laggy, then crash - pretty much back to square one. :(

Can you try it on another system?

Do you see the same issues, when using a different gaming application?
