Re: DIRT 3
Yep, TrackIR is supported in DiRT 3. At the moment it uses the DiRT 2 ID, so it will share a profile with that game. That will be upgraded to the proper ID in time. But for now, it should be pretty much plug and play.

Re: DIRT 3
Thanks. I was playing in hood cam mode, and it's not functional in that view mode apparantly. when I switched to cockpit mode it worked fine.
To bad Codemaster have fucked up the FOV in the game though. It's like sitting in the backseat driving

Re: DIRT 3
If the center of the view is too far back when you're in the car, a way to overcome that would be to center your TrackIR while you're sitting farther from the camera, then move closer. I would recommend checking with the developer, though, as it's possible they made the center of view adjustable (as in with FSX).

Re: DIRT 3
I just purchased TrackIR 5. Unfortunately, I did not do enough research. I was unaware that the hood cam was unsupported. This is the view I would like to race in.
Is there a way I can modify it to work?
Who would be the one to email about this to see if it can be implemented in the future? Codemasters or NaturalPoint?

Re: DIRT 3
I haven't received my TrackIR in the mail yet so I don't know how it works but I think I have an idea.
Maybe there is a way to trick the program to think that the hood cam is the in-car cam?

Re: DIRT 3
Mike, I tried that trick with Center while zoomed out then move closer, but it was still not enough.
Until Conmasters fixes this in a patch, there is a user made fix to the FOV problem, which I found here: DIRT 3 FOV 30

Re: DIRT 3
Did anybody find an opportunity to use trackir in the other camera perspectives too?
I'd love to use it in external view, as well.

Re: DIRT 3
In cockpit view you can only look so far forward before it stops. I assume there is a file somewhere that puts the limitation on this. Find the file and we may be able to tweak it.
Re: DIRT 3
Does this work with the Steam version of Dirt 3? I ask because when I launch the Steam version of Dirt 3 I do not get the right hand light on my Track IR 5 that indicates a supported title running. Needless to say, there is no indication of the Track IR working in the game.
Thank you,
