TRACKIR 5 in TS2021

[jalsina]

Is anybody using TrackIR 5 in TS 2021?
If yes how do you get it to work.
I tried last night and it didn´t work.
Do I require to edit some settings in one of the config files?

I am new to the head tracker, but I know it was implemented by DTG to the sim, back in TS2015. Actually, a few months ago I used a DIY tracker device with a Droid Camera and I got it to work. But not so far with TrackIR 5.

I made a guide on how to achieve this using only free software and improve your TSW2 experience to make it more immersive. Here it is:

Try that better than nothing at all...

Hope this helps,

That is similar to the Droid Camera I used a few months ago,I mentioned above. It worked.

About TSW, the game does not support trackir. Here is this YouTube where you can use an app to emulate TrackIR as the one you mention:

I would like using a unique head tracking device. I play other games that use head tracking.

Railworks 5 is listed in the TrackIR titles.
I would like to know if DTG ended TrackIR support sometime after TS2015 and up to TS2021.

There should be a major update soon to Train Simulator, have you posted what you want to see in Dovetail Forums..The Devs do take more notice in their forums, rather than on steam...

Why don't you ask DTG?

Good question. I will have to undust my login and password for DTG.
There is yet another place to go and ask: Railworks America.

However my question was very easy:

Anyone using TrackIR in TS2021? It doesn't seem so.

I use TrackIr Pro 5 when playing TS2021 and have no problems, works as it always has.

Good. Please, allow me to ask you some questions:

1- What version of TrackIR 5 software do you have installed? (I use 5.4.2.27545)
2- What is the title of the game listed in "Titles" that is detected by Trackir.
3- What base profile are you using?
4- Do you use additional software like FreePIE or other trackir enablers?
5- Anything else you can add that will help me to find the issue in my TrackIR?

1. Same version as you.
2. Dovetail train simulator 2015
3. Don't use profiles.
4. No.
5. No, sorry.

Thank you Motorhomegirl14.

Something is different from you, which is weird having the same software version.
I do not have" Dovetail train simulator 2015". The closer I have is Railworks 5 (TS2014).
I need to get an answer from Natural Point to see how can I add that "Dovetail train simulator 2015" title.

I usually don´t do it, but I just tried and the games listing remains the same.

I just looked at Natural Point listing and they have the "Dovetail Train SImulator 2015" listed along "Train Simulator 2015":
