Lixma 06 Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Is there any way to alter the eye postion except by using the average values from the min/max FOV figures in the view.lua? The reason I ask is.... If I sit back and hit the maximum FOV limits the display goes bonkers and sometimes locks the game up. Leaning forward to the minimum FOV works fine. What's going on? Is there a 'safe' maximum FOV that won't go crazy if I happen to bump into it? (Doing the 'lean forward then hit center' isn't too reliable and a pain, i'd rather have my set-up fixed in code.)
PaddyTB Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Probably not the problem. But just watch out for lights or windows (daytime) in the field of view. Can make it misbehave. Can check in view => tracking.

504bigtonka Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 I had something similar and made my yaw (X) axis a lot more aggressive (turned down smoothing a little and increased the "steepness" of the curve...) Result is that you can move your head a little less to reach the FOV limits for that axis - meaning the TrackIR can keep a better view of the 3 reflectors on the TrackIR clip. I found that the "weirdness" I was experiencing was when the TrackIR was losing sight of one of the 3 reflectors - in the "tracking" view of the TIR s/w one of the reflectors starts flickering red... This worked wonders for me - hope it helps you out too! BomberWing, VVS504 Red Hammers - http://www.vvs504.co.uk
