Noumcea Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 G'day all, I have a weird problem which I hope someone can help me with. First of all I have the latest version of DSCW and have the A-10C, UH-1 and BS2 modules. Am using the X-55 HOTAS and last week received the TrackIR 5. Here are my problems. 1. Using the X-55 software for the Huey I am able to use all of my flight controls but, TrackIR will not work. I have used the default profile, created a new one for DCS but no go. 2. In the X-55 software for the a-10C I loaded Althonics mappings. TrackIR works just the way I want it however, at first only the throttle controls worked. The joystick did not respond to the X and Y axis. I found in the profile that these were not mapped. 3. After mapping the joystick X and Y axis for the A-10, neither the throttle nor the joystick work. The rudder pedals do however as they are mapped directly into into DCS. Any thought or solutions please as I am stuck with a helicopter I can fly (only just) but doesn't recognise the TrackIR while one the other hand, I have the A-10 which recognises TrackIR but not the flight controls. :doh: Slow is smooth.

HiJack Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Can you snag a screenshot of your axes assignment for the A-10C please?
Noumcea Posted October 1, 2014 Author Posted October 1, 2014 HiJack, which program do you want screenshots from ? The software for the X-55 or the ones for the A-10c in DCS ? The original Athlonic file for the X-55 software file is somewhere on this forum. Am also confused as to why the TrackIR doesn't work with the Huey. Many thanks for replying mate. Please be aware that I am a total newbie with DCS and the various types of programs required for the flight control and head tracking. Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

HiJack Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Inside DCS World, Options. What is your assignments on Axis?
Noumcea Posted October 2, 2014 Author Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Mate, After your suggestion I looked at the mapping in both DCS and the X-55 software. Evrything is now working well for the A-10C. My problem now is the UH-1H module will not recognise any of the TrackIR profiles. I made the one for the A-10 as exclusive in the TrackIR software but nothing happens. I also made the profile non-exclusive and still no joy. Also created another profile for the Huey and no go... Any ideas ? Dave. Edited October 2, 2014 by Noumcea Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

HiJack Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Open TrackIR window and press the big button on top left corner and select "Check for Game updates" and restart TrackIR. Should work fine :)
Noumcea Posted October 4, 2014 Author Posted October 4, 2014 Well I did the update and still TrackIR will not work with the Huey. It works fine in a-10C and BS2 though....so considering that the Huey doesn't use many HOTAS buttons or swithches, I mapped the look up / down / left / right / zoom to two of the hat swithches on the joystick.
