The version 3-pro, I bought it a while back and had to order the vector expansion separately.

Moose, your comment is the biggest single complaint I have about using the TIR in combat. I often find myself disabling it when I am about to fire. I also do that when in a multi-con situation, one or two cons are trackable (for me) but when there;s more than that I get too disoriented with the TIR and go back to the JS hats.

Edbert , how are you going with this , Are you getting used to using it in combat ?

Do you use snap or pan for the track IR views ?

*punt* ...for the question.

Any chances for the "optional way"?

Hiya BK,

If you come to a decision to sell it I might be interested in buying.

...allthough I also would really like to see the option/feature BK is talking about!

I am not an owl, with a head that spins on a stick, so I think blauk is a hundred precents right !


When I turn my head I should not endup seing the back of the seat, but rather automatically lean a bit to the side that I am looking.

If I wanted to see straight behind me, I in the real world, would have to lean to the opposite side and turn my head.

It would be ultra cool if HTC could make a upside down U "path" for the head movement, or the way blauk has described.

Untill then

WOOOOooo (owl sound)

PS.
HTC has made a ultra super cool job so far on TIR anyway. No other game has the support for TIR as AH2

The best thing about Aces Highs implementation is that you can use the hat to look back and the TIR to lean left or right (again from the point of view you see on the screen), so you can get a great advantage in some fighters that force a left or right bias to hat switch users

Actually 5 and 7 o'clock views should be enough (like in real life). Human head does not rotate from 5 to 6 to 7... it goes from 5 to 12 to 7  

That might even out the differences between obstructed and un-obstructed 6 views in different planes.

But maybe that would seem too difficult for "most players".

BlauK,

when you consider the torso completely fixed, you may be right. But just swivel the upper torso a little, and looking to the 180 degree-position (and beyond) is no problem at all (for most able-bodied persons).

You're right when you say it works the way it is setup now, but some of us would prefer the way BlauK has outlined. It is, btw, how the TIR software head works. It's not just an odd idea BlauK has made up.

Move your physical head right, and the virtual head stays right in the cockpit even if you turn this or that way. It makes perfect sense to me, and it would definately feel more intuitive to me .

No need to convince us that it works, we know it works. We just ask for an even better (optional) way.

Ahhh.. was poking around today in setup and noticed a new "check" off for "Track IR relative view" or something similiar.

Anyone know what this is???

[Balsy]

did I miss it, it looks like HT fixed the issue

[Octavius]

In AH!?

[Octavius]

When did this sneak in there?  This is great!  Now I need to re-readjust

Thanks HT!!

[Balsy]

and just when I finally got  my head calibrated.

[eilif]

woot! thanks htc, cant argue with results can we:)  

 my ah head is alot more stable now, which is making gunnery/ everything alot easier!

origionaly posted by me a few weeks back:

 Both set ups are valid, both should be suported. and im sure they will be soon. Htc can only juggle so many things at once tho.

what did i say
