Title: Trackir / views question, maybe one for HT
Post by: Vulcan on December 11, 2006, 11:56:59 PM: I just got one of these: http://www.3dvisor.com

It has drivers which map the Z800 view to raw X/Y/Z joysticks style inputs (axis mapped to the view keys).

I'm having a problem with centering in game, the view always seems slightly outta whack and needs 'calibrating' (which is painful with a headset).

I noticed there are some keys for 'tracker' centering etc, can these be used for non-trackir devices?

Its going ok so far. 800x600 is no problem.

Everything works fine, the only gotcha is when I turn my head it is a bit stuttery. I knows it an AH issue as its silky smooth in WW2OL (Hitech/Pyro help?). It maybe something to do with AH tracking the head between various positions as I turn (ie moving the head around in the cockpit).

In WW2OL it doesn't work when I have my G15 keyboard plugged in (WW2OL known issue with some joysticks and multimedia keyboards).

p.s. You ho'd me in a Bell the other night dweeb :)
