DCS Hardcoded TrackIR Limit?

[Aussie_Mantis]

Hi guys.

TrackIR is already set up properly and in every other game I can already see past 90 degrees vertically. Why can't I do this in DCS? Is there a hardcoded gimbal limit at 90 degrees up?

I think there is a “realistic” limit in the game. Try turning your shoulders and looking back like you’d do IRL. Many years ago it was possible to look “up” 180d until you saw the tail of the plane, it was actually quite awkward. What they have now is better.

Yes, per default there is a limit.

I think you can adjust the limits in the server.lua in savegames/.../config/view..... but I'm not 100% sure from the top of my had.

And it will probably break IC if you want to play online. Depending on the server.
