Got the same problem that I posted somewhere else, but then again misery loves company and at least I don't feel alone now.

My guess would be a controller conflict issue.

Return all keybindings in WOFF to default, then try unplugging all controllers but leave tracker at default setting start mission and test.

Plug controllers back in one at a time to see which one is conflicting.

For what it's worth I couldn't get "Shift + D" to work either.
Haven't got us far as trying TrackIR yet.

EDIT: No TrackIR here either. Yikes - that kinda kills things.

Yep, OldHat is correct. I unplugged all of my controllers, then plugged them back in, and now TrackIR is working in WOFF.

Thanks, OldHat! salute

Well if it works it works. Probably ought to do the same with the joystick also then.
I really won't be able to give WOFF a real run through until tomorrow.

To be specific, a restart of the computer did not work. I had to actually unplug and plug in all controllers when the PC was up and running, in order to resolve this.

Good luck all!

Most of the devs and many beta testers have trackir - no problems noted on our side.

No Trackir software code changes made for V2.0

At the risk of sounding stupid I still can't can't TrackIR to work.
I have plug and unplugged it in both while in the desktop and while WOFF is running and get nothing. Even tried a TrackIR software reinstall.
Did you also have to return ALL keyboard and joystick settings to DEFAULT?
In Workshop controller portion click on "Reset all to Default"?
I still can't get "Shift + D" to work and suspect it's all related.
Joystick is working though.

What is "...leave tracker at default setting start mission and test"?

Same thing here Duke. I've tried what was suggested but no TrackIR for me either. Something has changed and at this point I don't know what. Hopefully the devs can find the tweak for us.

Ouch. WOFF and no TrackIR is like flying without pants on.

Since WOFF is essentially unplayable as is I will keep experimenting and hopefully advise on a fix.

EDIT: Doing all the Default resets in the Controller section of Workshop did nothing.
Going to try a reinstall of 2.0 and then a "Reset WOFF" which fixed odd issues I had before.

Duke, for what it's worth, I just updated my TIR software via the TIR control screen and now it all works as it should.

Thank goodness you posted that.
I tried everything WOFF related (resets, reinstall of 2.0, new 2.0 pilot, plug/unplug) and nothing worked - was getting ready to do a total uninstall and reinstall of WOFF.

I don't get the TrackIR driver thing. I did a (saved) driver reinstall and nothing. And I got it not too long ago.
I will give that a shot with a new driver download.

I won't be home for a while, so can't see forum for long. What I meant was to reset trackIR to its default values and then start a mission in WOFF to test it out - sorry for not being clear on that, but had no time to write.

You don't need a re-install, but can do that as a last resort... no guarantees though.

Did you try to switch usb ports with all your controllers so that each one is in a different usb port than it had before?

If you leave your controllers unplugged, will trackIR work? If so, then it maybe a controller software issue as well.

I wish you guys luck and hope you can locate the problem.

Damnit.
TrackIR worked just fine with 1.26.

I think I have tried just about everything short of a total uninstall/reinstall of WOFF.
Resets, redownload drivers, plug, unplug, plug into different ports, joystick, no joystick, etc, etc.

"TrackIR update via the TrackIR screen."

Ok I just went to the website and redownloaded the same year old driver I've been using.
I will try that.

EDIT: Nope. Said my driver is up to date. Tried WOFF again and nothing.
I guess if this was all a brand new thing I would get it but only after a 2.0 install?
Unfortunately after wasting 3 hours I now have real life stuff to do. Guess I'll try later.

Duke, unlike Lou and others, I did not update my TrackIR software(I'm already running the most current version). The only thing I did was to download the new game profiles that were available via the info-blurb in the upper right hand corner of the TrackIR screen.

I then unplugged all of my controllers, went into WOFF, and confirmed that TrackIR was working. I then plugged the controllers back in, one at a time, and confirmed in WOFF that TrackIR was still working. I did this until all controllers were plugged back in.

It sounds like everyone has slightly different issues, so the resolution for you will probably be different than everyone else.

What controllers do you have, btw?
