mikee Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hello , Any idea how to disable track ir5 in external view (so i can use my joystick's hat switch to pan around ) ? I know that there is one for fsx but i cannot get it to work in prepared3D ! Thank you , Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdrichmond Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Mike, I mapped the TrackIR PAUSE key, which is F9 by default, to a handy button on my joystick and yoke. Press F9 and the hat works just fine because TrackIR is "disabled" while in PAUSE. When you jump back into the cockpit, or finish dealing with a gauge/radio, press F9 and TrackIR is back in business. I'm running P3D v2.4.... Respectfully, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I have it set up that way but have no idea how I did it ,if no one gets back to you I can mail you a stack of screen shots that you can set .I run presicion flight controls for a yoke and they don't have a hat switch so I keep a joy stick and have every thing disabled except the hat switch so I can pan around in spot view like you want to do .Oh, I should mention that I run Ez-doc so that might screw you up if you don't have it .
