Title: IR tracker stopped working in AH3
Post by: EOD907 on May 01, 2018, 01:37:58 AM
Can anyone give me a hand?  I have had no problem with my Trackir for years, but suddenly it stopped working in AH3.  My problems started when I downloaded the new patch last Friday, but it was not my Trackir that immediately started acting up.  Instead, my quadrant throttle would not control the corresponding engine.  Throttle lever 1 would move throttles 1,3 and 4, throttle levers 2 and 3 would not move anything, and throttle lever 4 would move throttle for engine 2.  Everything else worked fine, including my Trackir.  Three days later (the next time I got on), I enter the game to find my Trackir will not interface with AH3.  The tracker system works normally before entering the game, and afterward.  I rebooted my system with no effect.  I reinstalled AH3, with no effect, and I reinstalled my Trackir software with no effect.  None of the settings in the have game changed.

I called Hightech creations office and was told the throttle problem was being addressed in the next patch, but that was before I knew I had a problem with the Trackir.  Is the Trackir problem also being addressed, or is it a separate issue?  If it is a separate issue, does anyone have a solution?

Please help.

Look in the VR settings and make sure that VR is enabled.

Several folk had issues with latest patches. Its not really a big deal, just that most folk dont read too well. Not saying that is you also :D They redid some Mode Switching stuff,IE go to Bombardier and you are in mode4 Bombardier/chute. Therefore when folk would go to bomb sight or Gun Positions CRAP, MY buttons dont work.   So, that being said...check to see if THESES NEW MODES share a HOT KEY for your TIR. I was using a TIR HOTKEY for pause, and when I would go into Mode 3....TIR would go straight to pause. Simplest way to test this, IF IF you dont use mode 3 or 4 in AH, just go to options controls, Pick your stick with issues, Mode3 and copy mode 1.....same for Mode4 Hope that this was your issue as well
