Still can't get TrackIR 5 to work
whirlynerd posted a topic in TAKE ON HELICOPTERS - TROUBLESHOOTING
Ok, I've read the other threads and tried re-installing 5.1.3, hitting the games update button, enabled TrackIR in the ToH controller profile...none of witch are working. There is no ToH in the TrackIR games list and the recognized game indicator never comes on the TrackIR unit itself. Works with every other game including ARMA 2. I've restarted everything. Any ideas? Running Win 7 64-bit. Thanks! -

Wow--I'm stumped. I know the games list is updating 'cause Dirt 3 doesn't show up 'till I hit games update and restart. Just no Take on Helicopters in the list and no recognized game indicator on the device but of course the game itself 'sees' the trackir just fine. Oh well. -

Thanks for the responses; yeah I'm sure about the 'games update', I've had some version of trackir for years and understand how that part works. It did take me a minute to remember BI's policy to disable trackir by default but I have that covered. I think it's something like toby23's suggesting--just haven't figured out the right uninstall, re-install, clear the registry, delete old profiles, run around in circles and perform a magic happy dance sequence to get it working yet. I'll keep trying! -
I did a quick search for problems with the 'Transportation' (minigun on the suv) mission in PMC with no luck so I'll start a thread. Anyone have problems once you get to a small town were there is a truck mounted aa or machinegun? Your driver is supposed to make a left hand turn and he just cant do it...runs into buildings, drives over fences, forward and reverse a million times with no obstacles at all nearby. All, of course, with 50 enemies shooting at you from all directions. I suppose what screws it up is that your driver slows and stops every time you fire...Is being a lead magnet until he makes the left the only solution?:confused: ---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ---------- Oops...found the thread: PMC05.

Strange 'stop' command problem since 1.54 and BAF

Found a work-around: without anyone else selected hit 0 1 ('done'). -
Strange 'stop' command problem since 1.54 and BAF
whirlynerd posted a topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
I searched for a problem like this but didn't find anything--sorry if this is a dupe thread. Anyway, I'm zippin' around in my Jackal w/my homies in the 02: Lancers stage of the BAF campaign and I noticed all of the sudden everyone ignores my 'regroup' command after using the 'stop' command. The bottom unit status bar shows 'stop' over MY icon which wont go away. How the hell do I issue a 'regroup' command to myself???? Is my british avatar DID or something???? Just curious if anyone else has run into this and has found a work-around. Thanks!
