Please Help - TrackIR 4 stops working in game

Post by mover59 »

I have TrackIR 4.1/35 and I'm using LO-MAC 1.12 (Flaming Cliffs)

It was working fine until I purchased and installed a new flight control system (Saitek X52)

I start TrackIR and test it out ... all's great. But when I start LOMAC and start flying, TrackIR stops working. All the lights are on but it does not respond.

I love TrackIR and need badly to get it working again. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Some users have reported TrackIR no longer working in Lock-On: Flaming Cliffs, with the latest game patch (1.12a).

To remedy this simply open your LOMAC->Input folder, and delete the TrackIR.ini file; then go to LOMAC->Config folder, and delete the TrackIR.ini file located here as well.

Ok - I'll try that when I get home but TrackIR was working with LOMAC 1.12 BEFORE I installed the Saitek software. Thank you for your prompt response. I'll keep you informed.

If the INI file was changed within the gaming application, by adjusting the game settings, it can cause it to become corrupt.

Great...that did it. Thanks so much. I really can't fly (or at least I don't want to) without TrackIR.
