Is smooth view panning at 30 FPS a myth?
Posted: Tue May 31, 2016 8:21 am
I have owned TrackIR 5 for a year and on the whole I am reasonably happy with it. The issue that has plagued me for the past year is as soon as the FPS drops below 60, view panning using TrackIR become jerky and unpleasant. It looks like the movement is incremented and not at all smooth and this problem gets worse the lower the FPS is.
This means that I have to lower the settings on FSX, DCS and IL-2 cliffs of Dover to try and minimise the chances of the FPS going below 60 which means each of these games are not as visually impressive as they could or should be.
I keep seeing that people have written online that their trackir is buttery smooth at 30fps. I have tried everything to resolve this issue including reinstalling software, updating drivers, changing priority in task manager, assigning trackir to an underused core and a few other things. Despite this, my problem persists and not willing to accept that I will require a GTX 1080 or Titan to run any game at decent settings with smooth head tracking, I thought I would post here to see if this behaviour is usual for trackir and if there are any other fixes I haven't considered.
Thanks in advance.
