Do you have any 3rd party modules that affect the view (eg ActiveCamera)? Are you using a Saitek joystick with POV hatswitch? Start FreeTrack tracking and then: FS9 -> Modules -> FSUIPC -> Logging -> IPC Writes checkbox <- tick it and then post the contents of FSUIPC.log found in the modules directory. Support FreeTrack

Class : Apprenti Posts : 23 Registered on : 02/11/2007 Off line	Hello Kestrel! Thanks for your answer. FreeTrack -> Output -> "FS2004/2002 FSUIPC" checkbox is ticked? -> Yes, this checkbox is already ticked. Do you have any 3rd party modules that affect the view (eg ActiveCamera)? -> No, I only use one module in FS2004 : FSUIPC. Are you using a Saitek joystick with POV hatswitch? -> Yes, I use one : on my Saitek "Pro flight yoke system", I have a POV hatswitch. If I understand, it prevents freetrack from working, doesn't it? What can I do to disable my POV hatswitch? Start FreeTrack tracking and then: FS9 -> Modules -> FSUIPC -> Logging -> IPC Writes checkbox <- tick it and then post the contents of FSUIPC.log found in the modules directory. -> Done.

Class : Apprenti Posts : 23 Registered on : 02/11/2007 Off line	J'ai désactivé le hattrack dans flight simulator : j'ai supprimé l'affectation du hattrack à la "vue panoramique", si je me souviens bien. Cela désactive bien le hattrack dans le jeu, mais ça ne fait toujours pas fonctionner freetrack. Je me suis dit qu'un joystick virtuel pourrait résoudre ce problème. Est-ce une bonne ou une mauvaise idée. Il semble que freetrack gère l'émulation de joystick à travers ppjoy. Est-ce que ppjoy fonctionne avec FS2004? Merci pour vos réponses.

The communication is done via shared memory so it shouldn't be blocked by anything. The Saitek joystick problem has only been reported with FSX (which uses the SimConnect interface), uninstalling the joystick drivers was the only way to get it working. Support FreeTrack

Class : Apprenti Posts : 23 Registered on : 02/11/2007 Off line	Kestrel, as you can see in my previous post, the log file is much more interesting since I unticked the checkbox "Direct Game Interface". Is it an issue? Can you suggest me anything else to make my Saitek Yoke System work with FS2004? All the buttons are currently well programmed thanks to the driver, and it's a very nice "joystick". If there's no other way out, I'll uninstall the driver and try to program my joystick manually... I'm very interesting in other pieces of advice, if you have some. Thanks a lot, Jean-Philippe

Class : Apprenti Posts : 23 Registered on : 02/11/2007 Off line	Birarre, bizarre... Pour tout vous dire : j'en chie! J'ai d'abord désinstallé intégralement le driver Saitek : rien de nouveau. Reboot de l'ordinateur, nouvel essai : ça ne marche toujours pas. J'ai installé ppjoy (je sais, Rémy, je n'en ai pas besoin; mais il faut bien que je débloque la situation! ), et j'ai configuré le joystick virtuel. J'ai démarré FS2004, j'ai attribué les "axes de la vue panoramique gauche/droit", "haut/bas" et "incliné" aux trois axes de mon joystick virtuel : il les voit et il les affecte lorsque je bouge la tête!!!! Je lance un vol de FS2004 : rien ne se passe.... Comme avec FSUIPC... Vous comprenez quelque chose? Pourquoi FS2004 parvient à voir mes mouvements dans le menu de configuration des axes, et pas dans le jeu?? Merci d'avance pour vos idées. Jean-Philippe

Class : Apprenti Posts : 23 Registered on : 02/11/2007 Off line	The same post in English, for my great helper Kestrel. First, I unstalled the Saitek driver, and I rebooted my PC : it still doesn't work. I installed and configured ppjoy, as I didn't know what else to do : I've been able to configure the tree axis of my virtual joystick in FS2004 configuration menu ! The game can see my head moves, at this time! But surprisingly, when I launch the flight and the cockpit appears, my head moves still don't operate, like with the FSUIPC module. How is it possible? Any idea? Jean-Philippe

Do you mean having freetrack window opened, and then launching FS2004? Yes, I did it several times. What is your webcam make and model? Is it a Logitech? Funny how you can find my accessories' manufacturers from my troubles (Saitek, then Logitech). Yes, this is a Logitech QuickCam Connect. Is it a problem? Jean-Philippe

Class : Apprenti Posts : 23 Registered on : 02/11/2007 Off line	Hi again! Finally, I tried again tonight. First, I thought of desactivating the couple of software firewalls which were running on my PC : nothing better in FS2004. Then I tried what you suggested me, Kestrel : I ticked the "mouse" checkbox : Freetrack immediately took control of my mouse cursor, both under Windows XP and under FS2004. But the image still doesn't move under FS2004, whatever output checkbox I tick. Finally, I stopped a mouse and keyboard software provided by Logitech, but it still doesn't change anything in FS2004. That's all for tonight. I'm still motivated in making freetrack run on my PC, more than at any time! Jean-Philippe

D'abord, j'ai désactivé les deux firewalls logiciels présents sur mon PC -> rien n'a changé. Puis, comme me l'a suggéré Kestrel, j'ai coché la checkbox "mouse" dans freetrack : immédiatement, le curseur est devenu piloté par les mouvements de ma tête, aussi bien sous Windows XP que sous FS2004. Mais quelle que soit la combinaison de checkboxes que je coche, l'image ne bouge toujours pas dans FS2004. Enfin, à tout hasard, j'ai fait un essai en arrêtant un logiciel fourni par Logitech pour configurer le clavier et la souris Logitech : cela n'a rien changé à la situation. Je m'arrête là pour ce soir. Je suis plus que jamais motivé pour faire tourner Freetrack sur mon PC. Merci de me conseiller pour y parvenir! Jean-Philippe

Bonjour,

j'ai installé Freetrack et il fonctionne bien avec mon montage électronique à 3 leds clipées.
Par contre, je ne parviens pas à faire fonctionner FS2004 avec Freetrack.

J'ai lu qu'il fallait installer l'update 9.1 de FS et FSUIPC version 3.75. J'ai donc :
- téléchargé, installé dans le répertoire de FS2004, et exécuté le fichier d'update de FS 2004 en version 9.1;
- et téléchargé et installé le fichier fsuipc.dll dans le répertoire modules de FS.

Lorsque je lance FS2004, le freetrack n'opère pas.

Qu'ai-je omis d'installer ou de configurer?

Merci d'avancepour votre aide.
Je suis impatient de pouvoir transformer fs2004 en véritable simulateur de vol!

FreeTrack -> Output -> "FS2004/2002 FSUIPC" checkbox is ticked?

Do you have any 3rd party modules that affect the view (eg ActiveCamera)?

Are you using a Saitek joystick with POV hatswitch?

Start FreeTrack tracking and then:
FS9 -> Modules -> FSUIPC -> Logging -> IPC Writes checkbox <- tick it and then post the contents of FSUIPC.log found in the modules directory.

Hello Kestrel!
Thanks for your answer.

FreeTrack -> Output -> "FS2004/2002 FSUIPC" checkbox is ticked?
-> Yes, this checkbox is already ticked.

Do you have any 3rd party modules that affect the view (eg ActiveCamera)?
-> No, I only use one module in FS2004 : FSUIPC.

Are you using a Saitek joystick with POV hatswitch?
-> Yes, I use one : on my Saitek "Pro flight yoke system", I have a POV hatswitch. If I understand, it prevents freetrack from working, doesn't it? What can I do to disable my POV hatswitch?

Start FreeTrack tracking and then:
FS9 -> Modules -> FSUIPC -> Logging -> IPC Writes checkbox <- tick it and then post the contents of FSUIPC.log found in the modules directory.
-> Done. Here's its content :

Le même post traduit en français :

Bonjour Kestrel!
Merci de m'avoir répondu.

FreeTrack -> Output -> La checkbox "FS2004/2002 FSUIPC" est-elle cochée?
-> Oui.

As-tu d'autres modules qui pourraient affecter la vue dans FS2004 (ActiveCamera par exemple)?
-> Non, je n'utilise que le module FSUIPC.

Utilises-tu un joystick Saitek présentant un "commutateur de vues à 8 directions" ("point of view hatswitch")?
-> Oui, j'en ai un : sur mon Saitek "Pro flight yoke system PZ44", je dispose d'un "POV hatswitch". Si je comprends bien, il empêche Freetrack de fonctionner. Comment puis-je désactiver mon "POV hatswitch"?

Démarrer la poursuite Freetrack et ensuite :
FS9 -> Modules -> FSUIPC -> Logging -> IPC Writes checkbox <- active cette checkbox, et ensuite poste le contenu du fichier FSUIPC.log qui se trouve dans le répertoire des modules FS2004.
-> C'est fait. Voici le contenu du fichier :

********* FSUIPC, Version 3.75 by Pete Dowson *********

********* FSUIPC Log file closed ***********

Le contenu de ce fichier me semble ne rien contenir d'intéressant.

Comment puis-je désactiver mon saitek "POV hatswitch"?
Merci pour vos réponses

J'ai désactivé le hattrack dans flight simulator : j'ai supprimé l'affectation du hattrack à la "vue panoramique", si je me souviens bien. Cela désactive bien le hattrack dans le jeu, mais ça ne fait toujours pas fonctionner freetrack.

Je me suis dit qu'un joystick virtuel pourrait résoudre ce problème. Est-ce une bonne ou une mauvaise idée.
Il semble que freetrack gère l'émulation de joystick à travers ppjoy. Est-ce que ppjoy fonctionne avec FS2004?

Merci pour vos réponses.

Salut janfy !

Pas besoin du PPjoy avec la dernière version de FreeTrack !

Essayes de cocher la case FS2004 output sans cocher la case "TrackIR output" plus haut...

If you setup FSUIPC to log writes then the log file should be similar to this:

This indicates that FSUIPC in FS9 is receiving the FreeTrack data. The communication is done via shared memory so it shouldn't be blocked by anything.

The Saitek joystick problem has only been reported with FSX (which uses the SimConnect interface), uninstalling the joystick drivers was the only way to get it working.

Bonsoir Rémy,

compris, pas besoin de ppjoy. Par ailleurs, dans Freetrack V2.1, j'avais bien coché "FS2004 output", mais je n'ai pas trouvé la case "TrackIR output" plus haut... La seule case encore cochée était "Direct game interface". Par acquis de conscience, je l'ai décoché, et lancé le jeu : les mouvements de la tête ne sont toujours pas pris en compte par le jeu, par contre le fichier de logs de FSUIPC s'est enrichi :

Kestrel,

as you can see in my previous post, the log file is much more interesting since I unticked the checkbox "Direct Game Interface". Is it an issue?

Can you suggest me anything else to make my Saitek Yoke System work with FS2004? All the buttons are currently well programmed thanks to the driver, and it's a very nice "joystick".

If there's no other way out, I'll uninstall the driver and try to program my joystick manually...

I'm very interesting in other pieces of advice, if you have some.

Thanks a lot,

Jean-Philippe

The Direct Game Interface checkbox doesn't affect FS9+FSUIPC for me (nor should it, being completely independent).

Can you suggest me anything else to make my Saitek Yoke System work with FS2004? All the buttons are currently well programmed thanks to the driver, and it's a very nice "joystick".

If there's no other way out, I'll uninstall the driver and try to program my joystick manually...

The only way to be sure the joystick drivers are not part of the problem is to uninstall them.

Birarre, bizarre...
Pour tout vous dire : j'en chie!

J'ai d'abord désinstallé intégralement le driver Saitek : rien de nouveau.
Reboot de l'ordinateur, nouvel essai : ça ne marche toujours pas.

J'ai installé ppjoy (je sais, Rémy, je n'en ai pas besoin; mais il faut bien que je débloque la situation!

), et j'ai configuré le joystick virtuel. J'ai démarré FS2004, j'ai attribué les "axes de la vue panoramique gauche/droit", "haut/bas" et "incliné" aux trois axes de mon joystick virtuel : il les voit et il les affecte lorsque je bouge la tête!!!!

Je lance un vol de FS2004 : rien ne se passe....

Comme avec FSUIPC...

Vous comprenez quelque chose? Pourquoi FS2004 parvient à voir mes mouvements dans le menu de configuration des axes, et pas dans le jeu??

Merci d'avance pour vos idées.

The same post in English, for my great helper Kestrel.

First, I unstalled the Saitek driver, and I rebooted my PC : it still doesn't work.

I installed and configured ppjoy, as I didn't know what else to do : I've been able to configure the tree axis of my virtual joystick in FS2004 configuration menu ! The game can see my head moves, at this time! But surprisingly, when I launch the flight and the cockpit appears, my head moves still don't operate, like with the FSUIPC module.

How is it possible? Any idea?

Try using the standard mouse output and see if that works while in-game.

Have you tried running FS in a window with FreeTrack open as well so that you can be sure it is tracking correctly while in-game?

What is your webcam make and model? Is it a Logitech?

Hello!

I won't be able to try this tonight. I'll try tomorrow.

Have you tried running FS in a window with FreeTrack open as well so that you can be sure it is tracking correctly while in-game?

Do you mean having freetrack window opened, and then launching FS2004? Yes, I did it several times.

What is your webcam make and model? Is it a Logitech?

Funny how you can find my accessories' manufacturers from my troubles

(Saitek, then Logitech). Yes, this is a Logitech QuickCam Connect. Is it a problem?

Hi again!

Finally, I tried again tonight.

First, I thought of desactivating the couple of software firewalls which were running on my PC : nothing better in FS2004.

Then I tried what you suggested me, Kestrel : I ticked the "mouse" checkbox : Freetrack immediately took control of my mouse cursor, both under Windows XP and under FS2004. But the image still doesn't move under FS2004, whatever output checkbox I tick.

Finally, I stopped a mouse and keyboard software provided by Logitech, but it still doesn't change anything in FS2004.

That's all for tonight.

I'm still motivated in making freetrack run on my PC, more than at any time!

Le même post en français :

Finalement, j'ai essayé à nouveau ce soir.

D'abord, j'ai désactivé les deux firewalls logiciels présents sur mon PC -> rien n'a changé.

Puis, comme me l'a suggéré Kestrel, j'ai coché la checkbox "mouse" dans freetrack : immédiatement, le curseur est devenu piloté par les mouvements de ma tête, aussi bien sous Windows XP que sous FS2004. Mais quelle que soit la combinaison de checkboxes que je coche, l'image ne bouge toujours pas dans FS2004.

Enfin, à tout hasard, j'ai fait un essai en arrêtant un logiciel fourni par Logitech pour configurer le clavier et la souris Logitech : cela n'a rien changé à la situation.

Je m'arrête là pour ce soir.
Je suis plus que jamais motivé pour faire tourner Freetrack sur mon PC. Merci de me conseiller pour y parvenir!
