Track ir is not working

Featured Replies

Hi. The track ir doesn't work in fs2020.

In controls doesn't show the track ir. 

The software is updated and working out of msfs.

You know where is the problem?

Regards.

Go to overhead menu, Camera and turn Track IR on.

Hi Arthur. Yes, is the latest version. I've tried with earlier version. 

And nothing. Regards.

As I mentioned previously, I had that problem on the town's PC where I also had the simulator installed.  I was never able to get the trackir to work on that PC.  However, on this PC before formatting it it worked perfectly.

When you click on the camera in the overhead menu, do you see Track IR listed at the top of the menu?

Hi Bosk8. No.

The trackir does not appear either in the camera menu above the simulator or in the controls menu.

Regards.

Where the trackir should appear, the Touch pointer appears.

I don't think that I ever had to do anything with Track IR to make it work.  As long as it is working, MSFS 2020 is the only flight simulator (as opposed to the one that starts with X) that allows turning on while the program is running.  If you open the Track IR program and are able to check your alignment, it should work.  Are your lights on the Track IR camera on? (Both of them)  Make sure there is no bright light behind your head (unshaded window, lamp, etc.).   That's about all that should cause any problems.

Hi old as dirt. 

Indeed, since the software was installed and then opened, you simply had to align it and then enter the simulator and it worked perfectly. That happened to me before formatting the computer and after formatting it it doesn't work for me.

No matter how much I think, I can't think of where the problem could be.

I have installed and uninstalled it several times and even using previous versions and nothing.

Hi. In this forum they say this.

Click the trackir button of the program, click "check for game updates...."in the menu, and then restart the trackip program. 

I did It and It works. 

thanks a lot.  really.  I thought there was no solution.  Thanks again.
