You can now have a separate profile for FC2 in TrackIR instead of using Blackshark. Perform "check for game updates" then restart your TrackIR software.

ehhhh, unfortunately, there seems to be a bug because it still seems to be using blackshark's profile even when there is now an entry for FC2.0.

 

Do they test this stuff before they release it?

Hi, ummmm, <((((><. :)

 

It's not a bug. We recently created a unique ID for FC2, and sent it to Eagle Dynamics for inclusion in their next build. We've gone ahead and made the ID public, so users will have access to it as soon as ED releases a supporting build. But, until that point, it's not actually "hooked up." Good catch though. I wondered how long before someone would see it. :)

Just to clarify, will this be implemented in a patch released by ED down the road?

Cool. Thanks Seth for the heads up. :) I am looking forward to the separate profile capability with the next patch!

I can't speak for ED, personally, but I would expect it to be included in a patch in the near future. It will need to be patched or hot-fixed in.

yes because the new update in track ir software has a new profile dedicated to it Trak ir 3 and up. Break yourself and upgrade theres good reasons to always upgrade..

Since im on disability and make in a month what i made in a week and a half i'm looking for options that don't involve upgrading.t.. I think if i do upgrade i'll spend it on freetrack.. I understand tir2 is old but theres no reason why simple headtracking is so difficult to implement.. if it ain't broke don't fix it, at least with freetrack i know i can invest now and it'll always work with everything down the line..unlike trackir..

thnx.. already went through all that,found the same thing.. I just can't justify spending on an upgrade, but been following freetrack for a while,now it looks like its time to "DIY" to make it work..

I am too angry about NaturalPoint's decision to stop supporting TrackIR2 in current games and win7. I had been using TIR2 in BS by using cracked dll file and drivers and I felt absolutely no guilty about doing that. But the fix only worked partially since I can only use TIR2 in mouse mode under Win7.

 

I see absolutely no reason why simple X/Y headtracking with TIR2 can not work with Blackshark/Win7, other than NaturalPoint's deliberate plan to force people to buy their TIR4/5. Well they succeeded, at least I just bought the TIR5 couple weeks ago. But the thing is that NaturalPoint could have continued the support of TIR2, and I will still buy the TIR5 due to its cool 6DOF. In that case, I'll give high respect, not disrepect, to this company. I delayed my upgrade to TIR5 for about a year precisely b/c I despise the current practice of NP, and due to my real concerns how NP will treat their TIR5 customers couple years down the road.
