TrackIR Not Working in Nuclear Option
I have not noticed anyone else with this problem, but I cannot get TrackIR to work in Nuclear Option.

I have tried running TrackIR v5.4 both before and after running Nuclear Option and checking the box in the controls for TrackIR.

I am unsure how to tell if Nuclear Option is recognizing Track IR as it is not appearing in the list along with my other peripherals in the controls settings. Nuclear Option does crash on mission load sometimes, but I don't know where to find or submit reports, if the solution or problem is in the logs.

If anyone else has found the solution please post here. If I find the solution before addressed I will try to update this post with it.

so if you go into the trackIR program , just under where it says Advanced Settings you see tabs that say, Profiles , Titles and Camera. Click on Titles , look for the game Nuclear Option and click on it and your good to go. If you dont see Nuclear Option in the list of games , at the very top left of the Application try clicking on that tool that opens and says TrackIR Options. When General Options opens , make sure that under Updates , that the Check For Game Updates Box has a tick mark in it. Now back to the very top left and click the TrackIR Logo and in the drop down you will see Check For Game Updates , click it to start update game list. Now go back to Advanced Settings and click Titles , now look for Nuclear Option in the list , it should be there. When you see the game click on it , boom your done.
If now its working for you great , but to let you know that after about 5-10 mins. you will notice that the view will look like it needs to be centered because if you move around in your seat alot you might not be sitting center of the screen. In TrackIR under Hotkeys , i clicked the Key Box and mapped it to my mouse5 button and it centers it right up. Now make sure that if its still not working , make sure to hit the F9 to see if TrackIR is not in the pause mode.

I use TrackIR in the game , it works great and is no fun without it now. the only issues i have is when the match is over and your back at the lobby , then join a new match then i notice , welp its not working now no matter what i do in game. So my work around is to shut the game down and fire Nuclear Option back up and now its working again. So maybe the next update will be a fix , if not i will glady just reboot the game , i gots to have my TrakIR on or its just not as fun. Hope this will work for yazs for now.

On your TrackIR, there should be a green light if the receiver is seeing your clip. There should be a blue light if the game is connected and trading data with your TIR. That's where you start with the troubleshooting.

If there's no green light, make sure there's no sunlight on the receiver. If there's no blue light, you need to update your TIR software. If there's an orange light, your TIR is in pause mode, unpause it.

I don't think the game crash on mission load is related to TIR, it's just a new thing the game does in this version. As far as I know, the dev is aware of the crash and is doing something about it. As for TIR quitting after a match, that's also a known bug but no idea on the progress for a fix.

TIR is AWESOME. The game opens up with head-tracking. Without... yes, it's playable, but wooof. I'm just so pleased the dev was able to shoehorn TIR in!

Ah the check for game update seems to have been the issue. TrackIR is now being picked up in game. Thanks for the replies.

I been doing game updates and version updates. But I too have the problem that the TIR just suddently DC'es from the game so I need to restart the game.

That is a known issue and has been fixed in the dev build
