TrackIR issues in FSX
Posted: Thu Jul 09, 2009 2:32 am
I am having very erractic tracking in FSX. The view leaps around the cockpit, turns in the opposite direction from the way my head moves and oftens jumps to directly looking up or down randomly. I have tried adjusting the smoothing, reversing the tracking (which works till next time i start) The tracking looks good on Track IR, no reds and follows head movement, so I was wondering if there is a problem with TrackIR and FSX. FSX addons are Level D 767, PMDG 747 & MD-11, CS 757, and some scenery stuff. I am using the latest TrackIR software.
Bascially makes using it impossible as the tracking in FSX does not follow the tracking from TrackIR.
So if anyone knows of a fix be great!
Disregard that fixed it, seems you have to start TrackIR before FSX. I still have one more problem and that is the keys to pause and centre and use prescision dont work when you have FSX selected, i have to TAB out to TrackIR hit the F9 key and then tab back into FSX any thoughts on that issue?
I think I fixed this one, looks like you have to run TRACKIR as administrator. Really windows Vista is a balls of a operating system, they are supposed to makes things work easier rather than harder as time goes by, getting Vista to work correctly with programs reminds me of windows 3.1 days were you prayed that any software you got would work with whatever hardware you had.
OK update again this is really driving me crazy, to get the key assignements to work in TrackIR you have to run it as admin, HOWEVER running it as admin is what is causing the crazy leaping around screen of your viewpoint and the reversal of the way you look ie head turns left view turns right, totally confused as of right now, why on earth would running the program as admin cause the view to get totally whacked out?
