Lange_666 Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Since yesterday's update TrackIR Hotkey's are no longer responsive in DCS. TrackIR works fine in it's setup software, if i look around the view move like it should. Same for the hotkeys, they work just fine. DCS is recognized by TrackIR software (blue light comes on), green light comes on when trackclip is in view and within DCS, i can look around like i normally do. But none of the hotkeys is being recognized by DCS. I did re-setup the trackIR hotkey's with other key-combo's and changed that accordingly in DCS. Works fine outside DCS in other games (IL-2, MSFS), not in DCS. If i remove the trackclip (green light goes out), i can use the keyboard that i just had setup to center the view, the moment in put the trackclip back on (green light turns on again), they become unresponsive. Also, everything concerning TrackIR is greyed out in the controls setup of DCS. I also noticed that for each module a new module input folder was created in the main DCS directory (not saved games) in the Mods\Aircraft\Input folder: A-10C example: Drive:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\A-10C\Input\A-10C. In here is a file "name.lua" which is created/updated with the new patch. It only contains the one line: return _('A-10C') Edited January 26, 2023 by Lange_666 Win11 Pro 64-bit, Ryzen 5800X3D, Corsair H115i, Gigabyte X570S UD, EVGA 3080Ti XC3 Ultra 12GB, 64 GB DDR4 G.Skill 3600.

Lange_666 Posted January 26, 2023 Author Posted January 26, 2023 As a last resort i did a repair, first a fast one, then a slow one, no joy. I'm thinking of reverting to the previous version where it still worked but something tells me this won't fix it. Anybody any clue on how DCS communicates with TrackIR? Or through which file/script? If TrackIR is active, the keyboard view commands are not responsive anymore and should be replaced by TrackIR's axis (which still works) and TrackIR hotkeys for centering, presision and pausing (which stopped working).

Solution Lange_666 Posted January 26, 2023 Author Solution Posted January 26, 2023 Solved: First went back to the previous Open Beta version, no joy. From there i updated to the latest version again, no joy. Checked again, in DCS the hotkey's didn't work, in other games they did.
