Bad Flickering

Post by PDGJeff »

Hi I have just bought TrackIR Ultra and have set up initially I thought every thing was okay, I use FS9 and fly Heli's so was on ground stationary. As soon as I started to move the screen flickers very badly I can scan side to side up/down etc but the straight on view is always flashing as well.

Any Ideas

Either within the video card settings, or the game application, there maybe a setting for VSync which can cause 'tearing' of the image, in 3d cockpits.....

Sorry to disappear last night but was past midnight here.

Have checked Vsync and it is On. Still getting the flicker.

This is ok with Heli until collective is applied, on a cessna and boeing the flicker is all the time.

Tried the racing game that came with track ir and the seems ok.

Where do I check next?
