Can't get my HAT switch and / or TrackIR to work

[Funkman 1]

Hi guys,

I have trouble to get my yoke's HAT switch to work for panning and tilting.

I have deleted any action for the HAT switch in my PREPAR3D V4.1 settings and I have also
assined the switch to the panning and tilting function in the Chase Plane settings.

All presets are working fine but when I use the HAT switch the view instantly snaps back to the preset
view. So I have no panning and tilting movement it just filckers.

Same when I try to use my TrackIR.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Timo,

I see you use TrackIR.

Have you selected "Enable Track IR" in the various presets? I think i had the same issue, after enable TrackIR my issue was gone ...

Hi headley,

thanks for your reply.
Yes, I have selected both Track IR options - under preferences and advanced camera options as well...

Could not solve the issues. :-(
EZdok v2.6 is my fix - works perfectly.

I just published a tutorial on how to use TrackIR:

Thanks for the tutorial.

But the HAT switch was also not working properly - TrackIR was not even installed at that time.
I think my issue was something more global.

Can you post a picture of your control assignments (Preferences > Control Assignments) and your Presets page?

Hi Keven,

sorry for my late response.
I discovered some more issues with other 3rd party addons, so I decided
to reinstall all of my flightsim stuff on a clean maschine with admin rights.

Caseplane works like a charm now - absolute no issues anymore!

I probably messed up my installation because of using a user account with restricted rights.
Apparently some addons can handle this - some not.
Don't know if Caseplane can handle it but it was definitely affected by some other messed up stuff.

Thanks for your help!

Best Regards
Timo
