Black Shark 2 Controller & TrackIR Problem

Immediately after BS2 install my TrackIR (bound to DCS A10C profile) functioned flawlessly. then after a re-start, the BS2 refused to respond to TrakIR. Investigation revealed that the TrackIR was working perfectly but somehow the BS controller dialog had lost all reference to the TrackIR bindings, not even a TrackIR headed collumb. "TOTAL BLANK".

 

Q! How do I restore the dialog for TrackIR in BS2 controller interface?

 

Just in case this problem is related to an install issue, BS2 installed into "C:\FLIGHT SIM\DCS Black Shark 2\bin\Launcher.exe"

 

TrackIR installed to Default C:\Program Files (x86)\NaturalPoint\TrackIR4\\\

Post Script: SOLUTION FOUND!

 

I have Re-Installed Drivers for the TrackIR and the issue has resolved; Noted that the TrackIR allocates the "Black Shark" default and NOT DCS A10c as the default binding for DCS BS2. Thank you to if you offered help.

Just to be sure, have you restarted TrackIR and then launched the sim to see if it picks it up? And, are you getting the indicator light on the TrackIR receiver to say there's a supported game active?

 

You could try removing C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS BlackShark 2\Config\Input\ka-50\trackir and see if the game re-detects it.

Thanks nomdeplume for your help, I did the re-start thing without success and then opted to re-install the driver software for TrackIR. That seems to have cured the issue..... what bothers me is I dont see how the driver software could have become so corrupted so quickly. Scary, I just hope that this is not a taste of things to come ie constant renewal of the driver software.
