TrackIr 5 & Cessna

[freakoid1966]

Head goes through window when moving to the left. How to prevent that? Tnx for help.

Use xcamera or disable the x-axis in the TIR software or like me change your settings to your liking and move your body bit less. ;)

I second X-camera.. Default built in TrackIR support lackluster in X-plane.

All you have to do is set up how far the axis goes. Its part of the software that comes with trackir

Then I have to go and do that for different aircraft.. x-camera you can set limits per aircraft.

Kind of depends really. I have a standard setup where I use the same axis on all. I only fly GA aircraft anyhow, so the cutoff on my right is a lot less than on the left. It does the job.... Its not like I want to move all over the aircraft. Some aircraft already come with limits if the cockpit is closed....

Whatever works for you.. however I wouldn't discard a free plugin that takes care of it all in one spot, and then some.

[PvWolf666]

I've not discarded it. I tried it, then didn't use it so no point in having it.

[RedLightning]

Its funny that you have no issues with the basic built in X-plane Track-IR support..

I think it has worked wonkey since Xplane 10 for me.

To each their own though .

[PvWolf666]

Once I sorted my settings with the help of harryorison everything was fine really.

This pisses me off so badly. Whenever i look far left i go outside and sound changes. Will try xcamera.

[freakoid1966]

Is xcamera the right tool for my problem? Watched this tutorial video

Wondering why this guy configures his warthog joystick hat switch for xcamera? i need this switch for trimming. any comments on that? tnx

[RedLightning]

I have never configured 'buttons' for xcamera.. maybe for some features or for convenience you might have to.

I allowed it to take over TrackIR control. and then manually set limits in the cockpit. Works great at not allowing my body to leave the aircraft through the metal.

[freakoid1966]

ok, i´ll try that, tnx mate!

[RedLightning]

I also use Xp-realistic which does not play at all with the TrackIR .. that is another thing that X-Camera does. Allows XP-realistics head movements to translate well with TrackIR head movements.

I wish I had the Xp-realistic/x-camera combo with FSX. The G-force software that I tried for that did not play well with the trackIR.

It is not the most intuitive of an interface for sure.. but as soon as you get past that it is an amazing tool that fills in the many holes of default support.

At least X-plane *has* default support :)

Setting limits in xcamera software or trackir limits?
