Opentrack discussions & trouble shooting.

[Funkysak]

Opentrack is pretty straight forward and many influencers have posted about setting it up for DCS. However sometimes a problem may arise and it will help to have a place to share the problem I ran into and how I had to fix it in case some of you run into it as well.

 Recently opentrack just stopped for me in DCS and nothing I did seemed to fix the issue. When opentrack is working properly with DCS it will call itself "BlackShark" and when it quits working it will say "unkown game".

 If this happens to you, like it did me, it means your profiles have somehow become corrupted. For me at least I think it happened from upgrading my opentrack version. To fix it you will need to find your profiles which are default to the documents folder under opentrack. 

 You may be able to get away with just deleting them and starting fresh. But for me, I uninstalled and re-installed opentrack and set up a new DCS profile. BUT IT WORKED.  Hope you find this helpful!   Good luck and happy flying!

I would not reinstall DCS entirely just to get OpenTrack working.
I don't use it so i'm not of any help but i would re-ask the question in the input/output section of the forum:

Check axis bindings in both modules.
