Trackir default head position problem

[JohnHolmes]

Hi

 

Problem

Ive been using Trackir in Il2 for years with no problems until the other day. The default head position has changed and is now seating  high and to the left. 

 

Things I've tried

• F9 Disabled Trackir
• ins, home, page up, del, end, page down, to reposition my head.
• F10 Save current corrections in head snap position (which does not seem to work) 
• F9 to enable Trackir

So soon as I enable Trackir the head position snaps right back to the same wrong position. 

I've tried 5 numpad to recenter camera, which again snaps back to the same wrong position.

I've check all key bindings.

 

Im thinking its not a Trackir problem because the same thing doesn't effect DCS.

 

Any help would be hugely appreciated

Thanks for your reply

 

I had actually already tried that after seeing a suggestion  in another post. (Maybe your post) but it didn't fix the problem.

 

I just recheck the file location and noticed that Snapview never auto-generated after booting up Il2.

I ran: STEAM Properties / Local Files / Verify Integrity of game files. This seemed to download Snapviews and fix the problem.

 

Many Thanks my friend

@JohnHolmes, Just a thought here as you say

did you check if the file or folder was set to Read only? That may have stopped the solution from working. A tip if you run into similar hickups again (which you may)

No I hadn't check that. Thanks for the tip
