What accessories do you use to look around? I'm looking for something that would work with WOFF, Falcon 4.0 etc...

I'd recommend TrackIR. It works well in just about every flight and racing sim.

You won't regret it, although it will take a little getting used to.

Two posts! Welcome, Barbek82! TrackIR for me, when I'm in the virtual skies. It's a real game-changer - or sim-changer, in this case. I don't get a lot of stick time, so when I do I need all the help I can get, and it really adds to my experience.

I hope you enjoy WOFF UE. The developers and a dedicated group of add-on artists here have made a picturesque, reverent, and marvelously accurate sim - the most beautiful skies I've ever seen on a computer. The devs hang out here,and it's a really gentlemanly bunch, helpful and courteous.

Stop back and let us know how it goes...


Box: Win7 Pro 64 bit / I72600K @4.1 GHz / EVGA GTX1080Ti/ 16GB RAM / Corsair 240 GB SSD / WD 600 GB Velociraptor / 1050W Power
FS Stuff: Saitek X52 Pro Stick/Throttle & Combat Rudder Pedals, TrackIR 5
Sims: FSX Gold, REX 2.0 OD, UTX-NA, FSGenesis 10m mesh/ CFS3 ETO 1.40/Wings Over Flanders Fields BH&H2 (more gorgeous than ever!)

It also works with ARMA 3, which you can usually pick up quite cheaply, if you want to spend the rest of your life cursing that all FPS don't use head tracking... rofl


The older I get, the more I realize I don't need to be Han, Luke or Leia. I'm just happy to be rebel scum...
