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:

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.

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.

Open TrackIR window and press the big button on top left corner and select "Check for Game updates" and restart TrackIR. Should work fine :)

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.
