G3 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 after discovering that keeping the default key commands for the trackir software was taking away the original functions performed by those keys i got to thinking, better remap the offending keys, f7 f8 and f9. so i went into the trackir profile, went to hotkeys and edited them accordingly. i never use the slow setting so i disabled that. i changed the 'pause' to numberpad 2, and the 'centre view' to numberpad 1. this gave me back the f7 f8 and f9 keys to give me alternate view etc. i chose the numberpad keys 1 and 2 as ever since getting a trackir i have never really used the numberpad other than to zoom in and out, default zoom and quickly looking at the instrument panel. the view commands seemed like a good choice. just worked this out today and was wondering how other trackir users map their keys?

SuperKungFu Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 i changed mine to z (pause) and x (center), just get rid of those functions which was rudder i believe. Rudder would be mapped to your joystick anyway. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highwayman-Ed Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I use the same two commands, but on Scroll Lock and the Pause / Break keys Intel i9-9900KF @5.2GHz MSI Z390 Gaming Pro Carbon 32GB G.Skill Trident Z DDR3200 RAM MSI RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio 40" Panasonic TH-40DX600U @ 4K Pimax Vision 8K Plus / Oculus Rift CV1 / HTC Vive Gametrix JetSeat with SimShaker Windows 10 64 Bit Home Edition [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G3 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 good to see i am not alone, how did i not stumble across this before:music_whistling: it is only thanks to touchbuddy and ruggbutts f15 profile that i really got to understand i had a problem as my trackir would pause or go into slow mode after i had tried to give my wingmen a command from the game tab. might be able to add some buttons to the game tab for the trackir centre, pause etc. anyway, i guess i doesn't matter what keys you use provided they aren't mapped to something else :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VapoR Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I have mine mapped to the cursor arrows. By default, they are flight controls but I would assume almost everyone here uses a joystick . . . They are very easy to find in the heat of battle, very hard to miss!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
