TrackIR standard keys (F9/F12) don't work in FSX

Post by jetsimace »

Hi Naturalpoint support-team,

the TrackIR standard keys (F9 for start/stop and F12 for re-center) don't work any more in FSX (which did work for quite a while). Instead I get the standard FSX keys - e.g. satellite view when pressing F12. Head movement works in virtual cockpit, but I can't re-center the view. The TRackIR standard keys work fine outside FSX - e.g. within the TRackIR control panel.

I installed FSUIPC (the non-registered version, so I'm not able to reprogram keys), but Pete Dowson says (http://forums.simflight.com/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=72065) the problem has nothing to do with FSUIPC.

What can I do?

My configuration is:
FSX Acceleration Pack (= FSX SP2)
FSUIPC 4.30 (instead of the older FSUIPC that shipped with the aerosoft version of Simflight Commander)
Windows VISTA 32bit
Geforce 8800 GTX (driver 175.19 - most current version)
TRackIR 4 (driver 4.1 Build 35 - most current version with up-to-date game updates)

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards

Have you tried reassigning the keys, within the TrackIR software to something else?

Do you have those keys assigned to something within FSX itself?

Perhaps you mistakenly chose default keyboard layout in FSX. I�d reinstall TrackIR, and perhaps it�ll recapture the keys.
