TrackIR not working in IL-2: 1946

Post by Zweihander »

Hi,

I just got a TrackIR4 and can't seem to get it working in IL-2: 1946. The software simply doesn't detect the game when I run it. Can someone help me with this?

Hmmmmm, so be fine.......

So you start the TrackIR software, then start the caming application?

No blue LED?

Have you tried a clean install of the TRackIR software?

Remove the TrackIR software by doing the following:
a. Click "Start"
b. Click on the "Control Panel"
c. Click "Add/Remove Programs"
d. Find "TrackIR" and click "Change/Remove"
e. Once launched it will give the option to completely remove it.
f. Delete the NaturalPoint folder at the following location, C:\Program Files\NaturalPoint
g. Download and reinstall the software from the following location,

Nevermind, I got it working by reinstalling the game in admin mode. Thanks anyway for your help.

Also, I'd like to make a suggestion as a consumer. Rather than asking one or two questions in a post and waiting for a response, I'd recommend asking all general questions in one post so that feedback is more convenient for other consumers having trouble. This way we'd be able to resolve our problems faster with less posts. ;)
