I've recently acquired the much celebrated Track IR4 Pro for use with the forthcoming OFF3 but also use FSX a lot. I'd like to configure the F12 key which "resets" Track IR4 as a button on my Saitek X52. Its proving difficult to incorporate the F12 button.
Anyone else got this working OK and found the way to "drag" the F12 on to the Saitek?
So far, I can't.
Thanks.
I have an X-45 with a couple of buttons assigned to
'Center' and 'Enable' TrackIR4.
In my case, I assigned different key combos in TrackIR
and then programmed those keys into the X-45 using the
profile editor. I already had an FSX profile so it was just
a matter of modifying the existing profile.
You can also do it, as someone noted here, using FSUIPC
I believe but I've not tried that method for TrackIR although
I've used it for other functions.
Be sure to ALSO program a key for "Enable" as you will
find that function quite useful when trying to activate
switches/controls while flying from the VC. Being able to
'freeze' your view during control activations saves ALOT
of frustration trying to 'hit' click spots from oblique
angles.
I also add three additional 'CameraDefinition.00x' sections
to all my FSX aircraft.cfg files with "HotKeySelect=" statements
added so that I can switch VC positions rapidly.
I use the #2 hat switch on my X-45 throttle to choose
, for instance, right seat/left seat/overhead/FE views
with a flick of my thumb.
The above implemantations makesflying FSX aircraft from the
VC a very 'immersive' experience.
