With the sim running and in the pit unplug the Tir camera for a few seconds and plug it back in. the sim will discover the Tir device and you should have head tracking..Also, is the Tir showing up in the list of controllers???

Hi Cayenne, do you mean by "plug in" you are talking about the head TrackiR in game switch? Where do I find the list of controllers?   Thanks

Check the presence of sim-connect.xml in your files. It is Sim-connect that allows to recognize track-ir. 

Where are the sim-connect.xml files located? Thanks

Regards

Can't find TrackiR in the game anywhere? The trackir switch is turned on but I don't see where trackir is physically in msfs. I turn on trackir first then turn on msfs and trackir is just not in the game? I can't find sim-connect. mxl in msfs either. Is sim-connect an app that needs to be downloaded in the game?

Regards

Hello Pilots .......... I finely fixed it !!! I thought that I had everything updated but I failed to update to the latest update that I overlooked in TrackiR 5. Stupid mistake on my part. Anyway, everything is running smooth now.  I won't to thank all who replied that tried to help me, very much. Hope I can do the same to some of you guys one day. Happy flying!

Regards
