Bagpipe Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Hi guys, Since i updated this evening i seem to have lost any ability for dcs to recognise my Opentrack at all. Looking back i have found some .dll files to install in every module's bin folder to enable opentrack to communicate but it is alot of work and the results are far from what i had. Plus this was never required pre-update. It would mean tweaking my mapping entirely. I have tried a repair and another update but neither have resolved my issue. Please can anyone give me an easy fix for this before the weekend is over :cry::joystick:

Bagpipe Posted August 17, 2019 Author Posted August 17, 2019 Had a look but can;t find any files which might relate to headtrack? Any ideas exactly what file would allow opentrack to communicate with DCS. I have found a better .dll for now which allows this but everything is inverted and mapping is WAY out. Gunna be a long night of Notepad++ by the looks :huh:

Download the file and pop into your dcsworld\bin folder But that’s a thread from 6 years ago? ... I tried open track years ago, but then changed to facetracknoir, that doesnt require to put any .dll or .lua within DCS as it uses the standard FreeTrack 2.0 protocol communication API Edited August 17, 2019 by Rudel_chw For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Bagpipe Posted August 18, 2019 Author Posted August 18, 2019 Yes, my Opentrack has never required any additional input yet somehow after recent update it has lost all communication with DCS. Therefor, i have had to input a .dll file to compensate right now. Mkaes me curious as to what else i may have lost though in the process :noexpression:
