Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
In FSX, when I look at about my 9 o'clock or anywhere around that perimeter, the view hangs for about 1 or 2 seconds and then resumes.
I know it's not a sensor issue because I can fix it...temporarily. All I have to do is alt-tab into windowed mode, open TrackIR, highlight the profile I'm using, and click edit. I can then close trackIR to the tray, and alt-tab back into FSX. For whatever reason, this unlocks the hang-ups and it's as smooth as Chester Cheetah for the rest of the flight.
Any idea why this is happening? Here's my config.
TrackIR 4 with a Pro Clip
Latest software 4 weeks ago
XP sp2
multiple monitor setup with 8800 GTS and 7800GTX
C2D, 2GB, ASUS DH Deluxe, yadda yadda
FSX sp1
Thanks!

1 - If you look at the tracking screen, do you see just the 3 green tracking dots?
2 - Are you using a USB hub, or plugging directly into the system?

I see three dots, and I am plugged directly into the computer.

In the following folder location, C:\Program Files\NaturalPoint\TrackIR4\Profiles, what is the file size for each profile?
You could try increasing the "Set Priority" for the TrackIR software, within the Task Manager -> Processes Tab -> Right click on the TrackIR.exe file -> Set Priority to AboveNormal....
See if that helps.....

Re: Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
That's good thinking on the priority. I'll try it tonight and report back. I'll also check the size of the profiles.
Re: Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
Setting the priority higher didn't help. TrackIR has done this since I've had it, before I installed any add-ons. I just figured it was the device's limit of sensitivity, but when I when to edit the profile, the head "unstuck" and it worked much better.
Re: Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
how do you find the 'task manager'?
Re: Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
Right click on the Task bar, at the bottom of the screen.
Re: Hiccups at 9 and 3 o'clock with work-around
Any more help on this issue, Vincent?
Also, I pinpointed the exact place where the tracking is mostly working and then works 100%.
Open TrackIR - mostly works
Click on the profiles tab - 100% works
