View control with mouse

pandaa109 · #1 10-15-2011, 11:11 AM

Does anyone else find the modeled delay of head movements extremely irritating? It can take my pilot about 2 seconds to turn his around when I move the mouse to the rear of the cockpit. Does trackir suffer from this same type of movement?

I can understand they don't want the steroid neck of Il-2 but it seems a bit much considering it takes me about .3 seconds to turn my head in the car.

Before people say what about g! I'm talking about just flying straight and level.

Its one of the major things that detracts from my enjoyment of the sim at the moment (now that I've got it working to a playable level).

Anyone else have this gripe?

At least with FreeTrack the movement is instant.

I do find it extremely irritating as well and it's one of the reasons I don't play the game yet.

However, I don't think it's intentional (to simulate slow head movement in the cockpit, that would be silly). The cursor movement in the cockpit is slow as well. What I would like is some "Enable raw mouse input" option in the settings.

2 seconds seems a long time. The mouse is much slower than headtracking so what you are experiencing isn't to model 'realism' but probbly a lag issue (otherwise it would be the same with headtracking enabled).

I just tried my mouse look-araound and took about 1 second to check six -glad I don't have to rely on the mouse for sure.

I have not been able to use the mouse to look around with. Anyone know what I'm missing here, or how to enable?...thanks

Build a Freetrack
Buy a Track Ir

When I posted a similar vewing question new to CoD and Rof, a very fine guy in Norway said buy the TRACK IR5...I did, it is great, and solved many problems. I use the profile posted by Requium in ROF. It works very well and I am still new to sims so will be looking for profiles perhaps better suited to CoD. Hope this helps...best advice I received to date!

I have Track ir 4 and It's the best, you don't have to configure it, and It's very easy to use.

I did look into buying/building my own trackir but I don't really feel I should have to fork out that kind of money just to do something I easily did with the mouse in il2 46.

Even trackir4 is £115 on amazon uk.

Try facetracknoir.All you need is a webcam and the free software.PS3 eye cam works great with it. A lot cheaper than TiR.
