TrackIR not working ver. 1.2.5

[jjohnson241]

Ok, what Options are selected in the Options menu, specifically in Controls (KA50 Game vs. KA50 Sim) and in the Gameplay tab (Sim or Game)?

 

Edit: Don't understand what a windowed mode would prove. You've already established that TIR is not operable for other than the Arcade mission. That mssion proves that DCS KA50 is seeing the TIR. If the configuration is set correctly, there is no reason that the other missions from the same module would not see the TIR.

 

You've eliminated a bad update/corrupt file by repairing DCS and reinstalling KA50. Have you deleted the DCS folder under saved games? Did you verify that you're flying with Sim control options and the game is set to Sim under gameplay options?

 

I think the problem is config related..just don't know where.

Here is a video demonstrating that A-10C works fine and KA-50 BS2 does not work. I ran the TrackIR software right next to the windowed mode so you can see that I've got TrackIR working fine and BS2 is not tracking.

Ok, you've proven the symptom, not the problem.

Others, including myself, have no problems after the update and have posted here saying that.

See my questions in my post prior to his one.

Sorry for the delay, I'm in the process of taking screenshots of the relevant options and control pages.

Have you tried deleting the folder with your user profile, it can get corrupt.

Let's eliminate a control option problem:

Delete the DCS Folder that's in C:\Users\(Your user name)\Saved Games

 

Restart the game and test TIR function

 

(Note: the game will recreate the DCS folder ,, you won't lost anything.)

I hope I don't break any rules for screenshot size.

What other Blackshark missions did you try and what where the results there?

 

Did you for example try a self created mission (i.e. just add a Blackshark to an otherwise empty mission in the mission editor)?

 

I ask because I think I read somewhere, that some view related configs can go into a mission file. Maybe it is just that one mission that is borked?

That should be the first step in chasing down a controller issue.
