[1.1] Track IR not detected in x64

[Braker]

Hello, my Track IR 5 is not detected in x64.

The driver is up to date.

This issue is exactly the same as reported here: http://bugs.kerbalspaceprogram.com/issues/7768

 

Thanks and regards...

Just FYI. I am having the same issue using NoTrackIR.  I know it isn't technically supported, but it used to work fine.

Same story here, except using a TrackIR4 camera with TrackIR5 software. Headtracking continues to work as expected in all my other flight sims, and worked just fine in 1.0.5.

I think that is a x64 related issue...

[-dead-]

Same here TrackIR 5, 5.4.2 drivers + x64 KSP = nothing doing, no light on. Can't test the 32-bit as I have too many mods.

Here's a workaround, 'til Squad get around to putting the correct TrackIRUnity.dll in the x64 folder, though:

Replace the TrackIRUnity.dll in the "Kerbal Space Program\KSP_x64_Data\Managed" folder with the one from KerbTrack 1.2 http://kerbal.curseforge.com/ksp-mods/224254-kerbtrack  (it's in the "GameData\KerbTrack\Plugins\" folder).

or

Replace the TrackIRUnity.dll in the "Kerbal Space Program\KSP_x64_Data\Managed" folder with the one from here: https://github.com/medsouz/Unity-TrackIR-Plugin-DLL/releases

Start the x64 version and it's green lights and twisty-turny views all round!

Both options work, see which you feel comfy with (downloading the zip from KerbTrack won't make Chrome & antivirus things get scared about downloading a .dll)

(reports of bad spinny-spinny in map was thanks to me trying to map view to my rudder pedals by mistake in a vague attempt to get TrackIR working, then forgetting I'd done it because it didn't work. Very Kerbal.)

You are a saint, scholar, brilliant comedian, and all around good guy! Even though you're dead.

Ok, not solved in 1.1.1...

Please, vote this ticket up if you want to see this issue stock-fixed for 1.1.2.

And thanks to -dead- for the workarround.

@Braker, no idea yet.

[Braker]

Ok thanks for help.

Thank you so much for this!.. though I cant seem to find the options panel.

 I had it working in 1.0.4 x64, and when I hit 'esc' key would get tracking options..

@sal_vager forgot to mention you in my post.

It really sucks that this still is a problem, I just got the TrackIR for (among others) this game.
