Hi Guys - new forum user - first post
But at least Vince knows my name I guess...

I have an idea, you might want to think about: I love TrackIR, and have only 1 problem: Clicking on a button in a Virtual Cockpit is almost impossible - I can't keep my head still enough. Of course I have F9 mapped to a button on my mouse, and that is good enough as a workaround.
But what if: A setting was introduced to help keep the view still, without turning TrackIR off. It would work something like:

Driver: OK, the user haven't moved his head more than x pixels for y miliseconds now. Even if his view isn't centered, I'll lower the sensitivity by factor z right where he's looking now!

A sort of Dynamic Dead Zone for lack of better words. Of course, once the user move starts moving his head again, you revert back to the normal sensitivity curve.

Am I making any sense? I could try to see if I can explain it better. And, of course, you might already have thought of this and decided against it.

Will foward onto the development team....

That's great.
I wasn't sure if I had made myself clear... Clear enough, apparently

I got it...... . If they have any questions, I'm sure they will ask.....

Make sure you pass on to the developers to make this an option. I can think of nothing more disorienting or vertigo inducing than the lag introduced by the lowered sensitivity when I expect it to be higher.

I'm one of those fliers that despises deadzones (the artificial slowdown when panning around to the front is extremly disorienting to me) so an automated one would render TIR useless to me without an option to turn it off.

If it is implementd, it will be an option like trueview.
