Ptrcam Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I've just had my first look at the 10.25 demo of Xplane and enabled Trackir in the equipment section, my problem is that the view is actually outside of the aircraft (like spot view in FSX). Can anybody tell me how to get Trackir working inside the cockpit?

DominicS Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Hi Peter, Welcome to the X-Plane forum:) Not sure what's happening, but if you use shift + 9 it will enable the 3D cockpit view. Just make sure that the aircraft you've selected has a 3D cockpit view, not all do;) Cheers Dom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptrcam Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Dear Dom, Thanks for your reply. I'm using the stock C172 which has a 3D panel. I have just had another try and TrackIr now seems to be working OK, perhaps it was just one of those things. I'm quite impressed with the demo so far, I like the fact that the runway isn't flat and the instruments are very clear and even with the level of detail the sim is running very smoothly. Could I trouble you for a screenshot of the runways at EGGD, that is where I do 90% of my flying and I'd like to see if they also follow the contours before i make up my mind about purchasing Xplane?

Thanks, Peter Hi Peter, Here are the runways at EGGD (real time and weather): The scenery is by my good friend Rene Bruun: You can download his EGGD here: https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?do=search&fsec=0&fname=eggd_-_bristol_international.zip Hope this helps:D Dom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
