about to set up track IR. anything i need to watch out for??

[-Roy-Cheesy-Chops]

so i've progressed past ground attack and now im about to delve into the fighter element of the game and so comes with headtracking

is there anything i need to look out for.

ive heard it breaks easy

whats the degrees headmovment for looking behind .so whats the degree angle deflection of your head as opposed to the head in the game full throws whats about the average movement per person just to look behind

whats worth looking out for?

What can break is the LED clip - generally due the user be careless (are 3rd part made in steel in eBay).

 

The head movement relative to game camera (POV) changes in the game is configurable, e.g with ~40 degrees of head movement you can check six.

Depends on what tracking clip you decide to get it to work with.

It ships with the trackclip, a passive design you have to wear on a baseball cap or so.

With extra costs, you can get a trackclip pro and this can be attached to a headset. The TC pro is active and has a wire to the device itself.

 

If interested, there are options for the clip, the TC pro and even the TIR itself.

I'm using TIR 5 with the TC pro for about 5 or 6 years now and all is still in one piece, so either I'm extremely careful (my wife will disagree) or the stuff can have some beating. Or it's plain luck.

People have reported they seem to break the pro clip easily.

 

In terms of software; there's no real challenge. Just install, use your own or someone else's profile to your liking and start the software before you start the sim. That's about it.

BTW - This  passive model (reflectors) difficult will break, is done in steel.

so whats the first stages of track ir set up

i just ordered windows 10 64 bit ive been out a few months you see track ir is not supported on windows xp of which ive been useing

so i'll be looking to get back into the pilot seat

whats to watch out for with the set up off track ir

there is a window over my right shoulder so what should i look out for 

what would the team recommend for getting used to the movement in flight with head movement who can remember what its like?

 

should i go try rise of flight and sit there in the strutter or something or would a lagg be fine to set up i dont see why not but an IL-2 might be a bit confined for testing

does new wings still run a server i could try that

thanks for your time have a nice day

It is actually very easy to set up. Just install the software and plug it in like any other peripheral. Although there are many ways to customize the profiles. I find that the preset "Smooth" works perfectly with BoS and RoF. Those are two games I never needed any adjustment for.

Just run it. Come back with questions afterwards, if you come across issues. You kids worry too much!
