Track IR and Joysticks not working in Premium Beta build?

My trackIR worked straight away with no configuration required, but a load of the axis were inverted for some reason. Also the sensitivity was way too high.

I had to artificially correct in the trackir software to fix it in game.

That too... It''s been fixed in later builds thought. Amazing the stuff we quickly forget. ;)

It worked for you in Alpha 1.1. Premium Beta build?

I got a TrackIR4, software is 5.2.2. It works in every game i play: War Thunder, DCS, ARMA3 but i just can't get it to work, no matter what profile i choose etc.

Can your trackIR4 use the encrypted data stream of IR5? That's the only data being returned by the game - and perhaps why it's not working for you.

Good point, i have no clue, but i read they introduced it with TrackIR5, so maybe ED only supports Trackir5 for now. Going to ask in the naturalpoint forums too.

Yes, mine is a TrackIR4 and software is 5.2.2 and it works with premium beta. I didn't have to make any changes to the game it just worked. In fact I didn't even have ED showing up in the trackIR software initially, I only did the rescan to add it so I could create a profile to reverse the axis.

If there is anything you can think of that you want me to check that might help you, let me know.
 
Elite isn't treating my flightstick right. I know the old girl is plain and a little on the cheap side, but whispering, "tell me you're a Saitek," seems kind of cruel. :(

The option to select the Speedlink Blackwidow doesn't work, but it will detect it if you set it to be a FLY 5. Just in case any other cheap-**** Beta players are baffled by this.
 
Good news. I clicked the right top button in trackir (news or something) and it updated encrypted stuff from trackir and it works now. Even though I installed trackir 3 days ago.

Only pedals do not work but I guess we have to wait for end of May for them to work.
 
Same Here!

I have the same problem using TrackIR5 .. Are you able to export the profile you have created (in the TrackIR software) and make it available to us? :D
 
This build wont have support for Dual input devices, such as the X55 and the Warthog.

I knew I searched the forums and verified that I could use my Saitek X-55 with ED prior to purchase.

I didn't count on there being multiple build versions run in parallel (Premium Beta getting Alpha build 1.1 Combat test.), nor did my clan mate.

A trap for new players.

Anyway, is there a known build where dual connection Hotas such as the Saitek X-55 and the Warthog are supported, and when will Premium Beta get it?

Thanks in advance
 
TrackIR has the Elite Dangerous profile installed and it does translate movement in to the game but it's backwards and doesn't seem to directly relate to the movement I'm making...

eg. Look left, it looks right, lean back and left and it leans back and right center up to where I was and I manage to either sit on the [metaphorical] front bumper of the ship outside the cockpit or on the glass canopy above where I should be.

Pressing F12 seems to reset it but as it is right now I can't use it.

Being using TrackIR in DCS and Arma 3/2 for nearly a year now so I am used to it but something seems wrong in ED, any clues on a fix?

Fixed in later builds. For now, I suggest you make a profile, or if you search General there are a couple floating around.
 
I just purchased the prem beta and it gave me access to the single player missions. Is there a profile for the Logitech extreme 3D pro? I don't see it in the list.
 
TrackIR working great, thanks for the profile! One question: how do you get UI focus to use the left/right screens? Not having any luck with the UI Focus keybinds while trackIR is active.

I upgraded to premium beta and have set up a working TrackIR 5 5.2.2 with the info in this thread:

Profile

Thats the stick I have I have a profile but no access to online storage unless you know of anywhere i could put it.
Although it at first looked daunting to setup as a custom device it was actually quite easy.
I have track ir so for the lateral thrusters i just use the hat switch as single button input and it works quite well.
Certainly not looking to upgrade to saitek et al yet !!

No, i disagree, it's amazing how they put an old alpha as a beta release.
i don't understand why if these bugs were already fixed why don't we have the correct version ??? to see if beta people will react the same as alphas ??

Honestly, I'm not too upset because beta starts May 30th, and it's very nice of them letting us play the earlier versions right now. But on the store page, on the BUY PREMIUM BETA NOW news, they really should mention Alpha 1.1 instead of single player combat.
