    I use SmoothTrack: Head Tracker by John Goering, making use of a mobile phone as the camera/processor. Coupled with opentrack I get good quality tracking with no need to attach things to my head! Not affiliated, just a big fan. Been using it for a while now…

    I’ve tried to use the lowest polling rate the mouse supports and still got the issue. Overall the ecores tweak is great! It has removed the long pauses during flight which are a real immersion killer and really painful at critical moments. So I wouldn’t go back to that… I guess I’ll report back once I’ve upgraded to 11. Thanks for the suggestions all

    Still on windows 10. Will have to bite the bullet eventually Yeah I saw something about mouse polling rates. Need to google mine, it has 4 levels but doesn’t explain what they are >< Maybe win 11 will just fix it? Urgh. The amount of decrapification I’ll have to do.

    I have for a while had issues with DCS locking up for multiple seconds every so often. It would play fine on my settings for most of the time, but then it would just stop for anywhere up to say 10 seconds, and then come back and run fine again. Not the usual micro-stutters that all my searching turned up. But anyway, I tried the "process lasso" (I'm actually using the open source Process Governor tool) and it has resolved the random lock ups! Huzzah! Except... I now get a modestly annoying issue, only in the main menu screen, whereby the mouse locks up and lags/stutters about. I can navigate just with difficulty, and once in-sim the mouse works fine. Not the biggest issue, but still annoying. Anyone else seen this / have any ideas? For whatever reason disabling the ecores seems to be the culprit.

    To follow up on my query, I feel slightly less silly now I’ve seen the discord instructions…. When I purchased directly from ASC I get emailed what was called a license key. The instructions say to redeem a voucher, and the redeem voucher page warns “do not enter license keys here”. Perhaps the emails should call these things vouchers, as that’s apparently what they really are

    Ok, thank you! That’s what I was wondering. I don’t like having keys sat in my mailbox unbound, but I couldn’t find an obvious way to do it. I’ll get on discord and have a read…

    You can prove anything with facts! Fair point, well made. Cheers

    Ok, so idiot question. If I purchase from ASC directly will I be able to bind the key I get immediately to my account, or not until the module is released?

    Hi csdigitaldesign, I've carried out the upgrade you're talking about without issue. I'm trying to cast my mind back as it was about a year ago that I did this... So it should work, but IIRC there is a different pot design for the z axis... There was certainly one that was singled out and marked differently, so perhaps it's just a hiccup with which pot you got sent? I just found an email comment rel4y sent me at the time - "I forgot to mention, the mainboards are labeled with their intended devices and two sensors are labeled with "Z". These are for the pedals Z axis and the Fighterstick Z axis. I think you will instantly recognize what I'm talking about, once you receive the package" Anyway, I'm confident that rel4y will be able to sort the problem out for you.

    Hi Rel4y, I'll send another email, but I'm getting concerned that you're not recieving them... Can you let me know whether you get anything from my hotmail please? Apparently you are! So order incoming! Cheers.
  12. samtheeagle
    Glad to hear you're over it rel4y! I shot you an email this morning... Hopefully it gets through, I always worry about hotmail stuff getting junked... Keep up the good work!

    I've also had issues since this latest OB update. Never seen this issue before, but the last few days I've had issues with the mouse pointer being constrained to a much smaller "window area" within VR which has made it impossible to click certain interface components. ALT-Enter has thus far worked for me. I've also has issues with a message in ornage text at the tope of the menu screen along the lines of "Window is out of focus" which I've never seen before in my decade of playing DCS. So nothing stoppping me from playing, but certainly a bit annoying...

    Yeah, I was thinking in terms of the software... If it assumes that it's only ever going to receive values within the 8-bit range then making it 12/16-bit might well cause overflow problems. While I'd love to improve my devices as much as I can I'd be loathed to lose the excellent software. Perhaps the pot upgrade but sticking with the original controller is a good middle ground. Thanks for your input.

    Hi rel4y, Fascinating work you're doing here! I was thinking about whether I could upgrade the pots in my CH Holy Trinity, and apparently I can... :) Following with interest! I was wondering about the board upgrade you mentioned; Would it still work with the Control Manager Software? Feels like it wouldn't, but that's just a hunch.
