TrackIR 5 problems with DCS

[Manuel]

Hello guys,

 

I have the following problem with TrackIR 5:

 

Its kind of laggy, but not because of the framerate which is decent on 20 and with numpad commands I can change my view fluently. TrackIr is sort of hacked frames, as if the frequency rate is to low and I don't know what to do.

It is not like a dia show but it is slightly hacked... don't know how to describe this properly.

 

System Specs are below. I upgraded to 16gb RAM and set all settings to medium and even low... problem was not solved that way.

 

Any Ideas?

Well, after all I am not so sure about the fps thing. Is 20 to few for my setup? How to improve? I have medium settings, one monitor 1920 x 1080, no OC on the video card.

No idea on framerate but if you mean "laggy" like it freezes and then resumes and is overall choppy.. I had the same problem and you won't believe what the issue was. (At least in my case anyway.) I had the light turned on in the room OUTSIDE my computer room. This overhead light was in direct line with the IR receiver and threw the whole thing off causing choppiness, lag etc. Turned the light off and all is well...

Thanks for you response. No it is not similar to that. It is a micro step lagging all the time. It is not freezing.

Medium setting and only getting around 20 is def. to low for your hardware.

 

Also, do you have smooth movement of TrackIR outside DCS (TIR software itself) or in another sim/game?

Yes, track IR is not the problem. That runs smootly as butter :D

 

Well if I overclock my gpu to 2000mhz I get 30-40 fps but.... seriously... is this necessary on a gtx570?
