Total mystery with this mission file

Guys,

I flew this night, with 4 other squad mates, this mission (attached) I made with DCS mission editor. Only on this mission, we all got the TrackIR roll axis inverted. Any other mission we tried in MP, with me hosting or not, TrackIR roll axis was working as it should.

Can you guys find some time to try it and see if your trackIR behave the same way?

I just can't even start to imagine how a .miz file can screw up your axes as well as your mates ones???

Thanks.

I was bored so I looked in your mission file. It does contain view configuration in Config/View/View.lua

I found in a working mission of mine that it has a section for TrackIR gain multipliers. It looks like this:

-- gain values for TrackIR , to unify responce on diffrent types of aircraft

TrackIR_gain_x = -0.6

TrackIR_gain_y = 0.3

TrackIR_gain_z = -0.25

TrackIR_gain_roll = -90

Your mission doesn't have that section. Maybe the defaults have a different sign for the gain on roll so it rolls the other way? Just guessing here, but maybe helps someone find the root cause.

try it now

- what I have done: I opened the *.miz with winrar and deleted the '../config/view' folder in it.

(right click on a folder while having it opened in winrar and delete)

Operation Bermudes avec Hueys v2 without view folder.miz

still bored... so I tried adding that section to the View configuration and it seems to fix it.

try the attached mission.

also: I have no idea why the editor sucks all these config files into the mission archive. It seems like terrible design.

He he, you took the easier way out! Is it ok to blow away a resource and not update "resourceCounter" in the misson file?

sorry I only started hacking mission files yesterday ;)

Wow, guys you have my respect! You solved this in a few minutes! Don't understand how it happened since I never modified anything in this view file.

Thanks again!

Bonjour Bad,

Did you do a 'Prepare'? That will add the view file. All you need to do is delete the view file from the miz file, if so. Preparing a mission is a good thing, so just remember to delete the file.

Yes Smil, you're right. i DID "prepared" the Ka50s for my mission to pre program the ABRIS. That's certainly how I "infected" my mission file.

I wish ED clarifies how this is all working with those strange files imported into your miz files.
