Title: Recieved my TrackIR today... Post by: TX-Cage on January 08, 2003, 07:19:02 pm and WOW!
Takes a little bit of discipline especially with gunnery. However a quick flick of a key/button and presto. Guess it would be the equivilant of learning to fly from the superman to the locked cockpit. Simply lovely to follow a bogie with a little head movement. Money well spent. Even if it wouldn't have been a Christmas gift for me. S~ Black 5 ... end ... Title: Re: Recieved my TrackIR today... Post by: TX-Kingsnake on January 08, 2003, 07:46:14 pm I have the IR on my wish list, after rudder peddals, ram and a 21" flat screen. My experience with hands off controll items, like game voice, or my 3d glasses has not been that great. With game voice i say FLAPS and she says MAP. I say FLAPS! and she says WEP. I say FLAPS DOWN and she says LOOK DOWN. The 3D glasses make me sick. I can fly in a plane or ride a boat or a roller coaster with no motion sickness. The 3D glasses cause a huge focal problem because they are designed for short depth of field, and IL2 has a 100 K depth of field. The track IR looked great....my reservation was in the smoothness of the panning and that in reaching for a beer I'd be looking at the throttle controlls. I thought the silver dot on the head, combined with the perfect posture looked like meditation.Regards,TX-KingsnakeWhite 1

I am using the mic boom on my headset as the dot holder.KingSnake...I didn't have a problem. I got a drink, and put a dip in. Of course it did make the view go the rudder pedals when I got a drink, but I simply Centered the view. When I got a dip, I paused TrackIR first and kept a front view.By the way....lmao...a lit cigerette works too...heheS~Black 5... end ...
