Title: TrackIR changes
Post by: Yippee38 on September 23, 2008, 12:26:28 PM
Can anybody describe what has changed with TrackIR functionality in this patch (in more detail than the release notes)?  Is it good?  I'm away from home and won't be able to get back in game for about another week.   :cry

The freedom of movement was bugged, so that you could't get the same rear views in some plane as with conventional hat or keyboard view. This effect was most noticeable in F4U's. (See bug report http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,232289.0.html )

New version fixed that.

amen....reason why I rarely flew the corsairs.

I'll try to remember to take one up tonight and see if things have changed for the better.
