In the F. A.Q. It clearly says you can edit the amount you move your head. To the amount the mouse curser moves. Even a quarter of a inch it says can move curser across screen. I can't find this in the manuel or any of the buttons or sliders on the trackir menus. So please someone help this dummy out. Mine will only move the curser about 3 inchs back and forth. Unless I put the reflecting dot right in front of the camarer and move it back and forth about a foot. Thanks

First things first.
what drivers are you using?

What game are you running when this happens or does this happen in Windows?

thanks for answering. I'm using the very latest drivers, I think the # is 3.10. My O.C. is windowsXP Home. The games I'm trying to use it in are all racing sims. GPL, which it was working well in. Nascar Racing 2003, Only small amount of movement. The new GTR press demo Only small amont of movement. Others have got it to work in this demo in mouse mode, also using PPjoy, and tir2joy utilities. which I have working.
It would seem to me when I turn on the Natural Point program and go to the movement or tracking tab the green dot would move all away across the small screen on the menu page. But it only moves a small amount at this time. This might be due to the latest drivers because it was moving alot more to begine with. I'm just not sure if this changed after I installed the newer drivers. And since I though there was supposed to be a way to ajust headmovement vs. mousemovent I didn't want to change the drivers back. Since you didn't just tell how to ajust the amount of movement I conclude it cannot be done?
I'm about 2 ft. from the camera. Using the large dot either on the brim of the hat or on the front of the cap itself. Thanks Howie
P.S. I just got my trackir couple of days ago.

Hello howie,

Let me try and answer your questions.

GTR by SimBin only has the mouse look feature for TrackIR not Enhanced mode, dont worry I am working on this.

F1 Challenge has only one axis and that is horizontal, however there are mods out there that allow you both axis this is shown quite well in the ETCC mod for F1.

If you are using the 3.10 drivers because the smoothing has changed you may find that you need to speed up the profile that you are using for that game. This can also be done in Relative mode (mouse look)

You can also use the TrackMapper utility in these games, I have had this working very good in F1C and a number of the mods that go with that game. The advantages are the unit will be in Enhanced mode and the mouse is uneffected.

A great site for this and other related race games is Blackhole Motorsports

I hope this helps and if you are a little unsure as to what you need to adjust then drop me an e-mail with the profile that you are using.

I was able to get some better results by ajusting my mouse movements with the software logitech supplied with my mouse. Nascar Racing is working good with only a few minor annoyances. Has a attendency to reverse axis on view when I restart game?? F1C won't work, I think because it is limited to two controllers and I have shifter and clutch as a seperate controller. Isn't there an app that combines to controllers as one? If anybody knows let me in on it. Pretty please!
