    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • IMPORTANT INFORMATION - ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ

    Due to an increase in the number of new members who are trying to systematically download our entire Resource Library (one new member yesterday tried to download 3,000+ files AT ONCE!) we are being forced to implement some changes regarding who can download what, how many files at a time and at what speed. As the forums and Resource Library share the same bandwidth when the Library gets overloaded with demand like that the forums fall over, as we have all seen recently. It's sad that greed has forced our hand in this way but we must do something for the benefit of all our legitimate members (many of whom paid money for the upkeep of the site) and to prevent the files stored here being used for nefarious purposes. Many of our uploads have specific conditions tied to them that forbid uploading to any other site or deny uploading to any site that has a 'paywall' (i.e. a pay to download policy). Due to the number of mass download attempts recently we can only assume that somebody, somewhere, is attempting to stock up a new file library with our files and we owe it to our up-loaders to protect their files and intellectual property especially as many (like my own LDR Development projects) are made available at SOH only and are specified as such in the 'read me' files.

    The forums and Resource Library will be taken offline as of 13:00 EDT with the forums coming back online shortly after without the resources library while we work on setting up permissions on the new Library module.

    We hope our members understand why we need to do this and will bear with us while we implement the changes.

    Thanks in anticipation, SOH ADMINISTRATION

    Downloads are now active. You may proceed with downloading as desired

    The download limits are a work in progress. Some settings are likely to need tweaking in the coming days.

TrackIR3 in prepar3d V4

Hi all!

Have recently installed V4 in windows 10 new computer with FSUIPC5.

I can not get my TrackIR 3 to work in V4. It works in FSX on same computer.

What I have tried (instructions on several fora) are:

1. Installed 64 bit drivers for TIR 3

2. Ran simconnect msi for FSX Accel found in V4 folder (exact name can't remember)

3. Have tried latest TIR program from natural Point but does not work because it only recognizes the hat clips. Check Harris Scarfe Catalogue and Myer Catalogue. I use the old reflector squares because of the Headgear I use.


Any help is greatly appreciated. I really want to use the Track IR because for me it adds considerably to my immersion.

Thanks,

Joe
 
I also have a TIR3 and it is working fine in v4. I think it has to do with the legacy simconnect. Try to run all of them, not just the FSX Accel version. Also in your TIR software, request a game update to be done.

If nothing works then it could be the TIR software. I actually use the latest one as I have a hat clip.
 
If I remember correctly, you need to run both the TIR software and P3d with the same level of privileges, i.e. both as admin, or both not.

That is indeed another good point Dave and could be the culprit.:encouragement:
 
Thanks guys

I have tried all those suggestions and still no go. I think I will regroup, rethink, and retry.
