Just in case, I checked my trackir software and it says the game list is up to date. So... how can I enable trackir?

I'm running on an Intel i920, 15GB RAM, ATI 4870X2 (2 chips 1 card) with 2GB of video memory, and the game runs at very low FPS (on single player with all options on MEDIUM). I've read in some other threads that the laggyness is not caused by computer specs but by some bug that was apparently already fixed already with an automatic steam update. I got the update but I see no change.

I've disabled that epilepsy option and the game got a bit better, but it's still unplayable as it is. In a combat flight sim, a half-second lag makes a huge difference. I'm hoping trackir can help me enjoy the game but have no idea how to activate it. Any tips?

PS: The graphis are a huge improvement over the previous version. The landscapes are beautiful, but not much different from those of Rise of Flight. The water is amazing though.
I didn't read the whole tread, so I may be off here.... but to answer your specific question about how to enable TrackIR, you don't have to enable it in a game. The TrackIR emulates mouse movement so any game that has mouse look will work with TrackIR. There are probably more complex games that have multiple view axes that would require a game-specific setting, but IL2 wasn't that way, so I assume CoD also looks around using the mouse. If that is the case, your TrackIR should work by default.
