Vector Expansion vs Dot Track

Post by ssanchez »

Hello all,

I have an issue... Hopefully someone here will be able to help me...

I have the Vector expansion, and I am able to use it in several games (IL-2 and Rise of Flight are two examples)

Yesterday, I wanted to fly X-Plane with the PilotView plugin, but I was unsuccessful... After a couple of questions and readings at the X-Plane forums, I thought about using the dot hat instead of the vector.

Well... I started the T-IR control panel, then went into View, Heads. With single dot, my head isnt moving... I can see the single dot moving in the Tracking screen, but the Tracking status wont change from Vector expansion. I went and changed the profile to use the Dot, still when I go to X-Plane I cant move my head in game.

First question... Is X-Plane supposed to work with vector expansion?

Second question... I see some 3 profiles for X-Plane in my game profiles... How do I know which one is active? How do I get rid of the ones I dont need?

I am running Vista 64 Home, with 4GB Ram, in a 3GHz dual core
Track IR is 4.1.037
Thanks!

Well... I forgot to run as administrator...

As soon as both TrackIR and X-Plane were run as admin, everything started working fine

Lesson learned...
