cichlidfan Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) The name of the function is nothing other than a name. Also, regarding point B. What good is testing is you have a custom configuration not used by the users with a problem that you are trying to test? Don't you take your own advice and remove all mods and start with a clean Saved Games folder?

SkateZilla Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) The name of the function is nothing other than a name. What are you referring to Name of the Function is nothing more than a name?, ie: action = iCommandViewVerticalAbs is not a "Name of a function", it's a Command that the UI Receives to tell it to move Camera a specific way. Also, regarding point B. What good is testing is you have a custom configuration not used by the users with a problem that you are trying to test? Don't you take your own advice and remove all mods and start with a clean Saved Games folder? I have numerous Tracking Devices installed, sometimes I have to override axes to test others. it was a custom file that was created when I changed some axes around to test something else, I did not know the updater would ignore it and forgot it wasnt in the saved games folder... Users w/ Custom Views already Set and Saved overriding the defaults likely dont have this issue as their saved vAngle is set to 0 or close to it. If this is going to turn into a "Questioning ED's every move / Questioning a Tester's Work Ethic/Procedures", Then I Suggest you take it to PM or Elsewhere, This Line of Questioning has Zero to do w/ the actual bug. I dont need to explain myself, I'm aware of what I do, and how I do it So are all the other testers.

ReggiePerrin Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Updates to head tracking functions/features... Eitherway, the issue isnt the controller itself, But the Workaround to use the old controller works for me: Opening: /DCS WORLD/CONFIG/INPUT/AIRCRAFTS/DEFAULT/trackir/default.lua and Changing it to the following Resolves the trackir having an offset: return { axisCommands = { -- TrackIR axes {combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_PITCH'}}, action = iCommandViewVerticalAbs , name = _('Absolute Camera Vertical View')}, {combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_YAW'}}, action = iCommandViewHorizontalAbs , name = _('Absolute Camera Horizontal View')}, {combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_ROLL'}}, action = iCommandViewRollAbs , name = _('Absolute Roll Shift Camera View')}, {combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_X'}}, action = iCommandViewHorTransAbs , name = _('Absolute Horizontal Shift Camera View')}, {combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_Y'}}, action = iCommandViewVertTransAbs , name = _('Absolute Vertical Shift Camera View')}, {combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_Z'}}, action = iCommandViewLongitudeTransAbs , name = _('Absolute Longitude Shift Camera View')}, {combos = nil, action = iCommandViewZoomAbs , name = _('Zoom View')}, }, } Would this workaround fix the Vive issue as well?

M2K, Ka50 and SU25T; now working fine, even after a restart of DCS A10c, I have to reapply the fix almost everytime I enter the cockpit Mi8, I couldn't get the fix to work with this at all As this is a workaround until a permanent fix comes out I'll just stick to flying the M2k and Ka50.

Hey Skate, I had costume views set, and I was still effected....if that helps some one. I also noticed that in the Mig-21 everything worked pretty much like it used to, except for when you start looking back your head just keeps spinning through round and round, until I run out of the the TIR axis.

Bearfoot Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Me, too, with Gazelle and Huey. Quitting DCS and restarting fixes it ... until it goes wrong again. I also find that if I am leaning forward for whatever reason when first spawning, the really, really, really, really, really, really, really [x1000000] annoying slow zoom back at aspawn does not zoom back all the way, even after I lean backward. Results in the view fixed with my nose pressed against the windshield. The only way to fix this is to restart the mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decipher Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 This is a normal problem in software development. Development machines, like mine, have plenty of tools that allow them to basically ignore errors like the ones you are experiencing. So, when you use a development machine to test your work sometimes you miss stuff like this because your computer just says "meh" and keeps working as intended. thanks for explaining and i understand, but i was not meaning razbam testing or you specifically, sorry if it sounded that way! :) from reading the mirage forum i know you are really working hard and always very helpful and communicative with updates etc. i was probably thinking more of general ED testers, those people who play with the whole update before it gets put on open-beta.
