I still can not get TrackIR to register at all. TIR4
the bit is set to 1 in my map file.
I tried running as adminstrator but TIR would crash.
My tracking window works fine in TIR.

Make sure you have these lines in your custom map file Cephas --
(ATTENTION: some have "State,_trackir..." and some have "State,trackir...") -- no underscore ("_") This is not a typo!!

action("BC_HEAD_TRANS_X_P",State,_trackir_axis_Z);
action("BC_HEAD_TRANS_Y_P",State,trackir_axis_Y);
action("BC_HEAD_TRANS_Z_P",State,_trackir_axis_X);
action("BC_HEAD_ROLL_P",State,trackir_axis_ROLL);
action("BC_HEAD_PITCH_P",State,trackir_axis_PITCH);
action("BC_HEAD_YAW_P",State,_trackir_axis_YAW);

and also (as a troubleshooting step only)

action("BC_HEAD_PITCH_P",Event,mouse_axis_Y);
action("BC_HEAD_YAW_P",Event,mouse_axis_X);

I'm not sure about the mouse_axis stuff. But I remember early on, I tried deleting all those multiple extra assignments that I thought I didn't need, and remember having to put those mouse ones back....

You can also email me through the squadron mail and or schedule a time on our Teamspeak and I can walk ya through whatever you like.

I have TrackIR3. Is there a null command that I can give so that some of those axis are not used?

use the CLEAR button inside ROF Settings to remove an unwanted assignment.

I don't see a way to assign axis to trackir.

I'm not understanding the question then. You Have TrackIR 3 (without 6DoF?)

...and you want to what?

(sorry Sim frown ...not trying to be daft)

I guess deleting those lines completely works.


Now problem is still there. I can't change FOV or head movement with TrackIR enabled. It automatically resets back.

then make sure you do not have a >> to the left of the action you are assigning. This symbol indicates another action is using the same key/button/axis assignment and should be changed.

also check your enable/disable key for TrackIR. Is it F9? F9 is also ROF's default for Head:Snap Mode

I changed mapping in trackir and removed >> . Same thing. If I disable trackir, than I can zoom in / out. If I enable it, zoom returns to normal.
