Now about every 5-10 minutes, Track IR shuts off. Have to go to Camera settings and turn it back on.

Isnāt that wonderfull!!!
Worse is that they knew about this bug before launch since itās in the known issues of the patch notes. But of course, itās not considered importantā¦

Theyāve been releasing hotfixes and patches in between Sim Updates, so I donāt think thereās any reason they wouldnāt patch this as soon as they have a fix.

Who still uses trackir anymore? Why would Asobo care about trackir? VR is the way to go

Never have they released a hotfix that wasnāt due to a major bug that got huge community outcry. Bugs that they would have happily ignored till the next update had it not been for the flood of crap they received for it.
I hope Iām proven wrong, but I highly doubt theyāll issue a hotfix for such a minor issue that affects a very small percentage of users.
Not everyone has or wants VR. Iām a longtime VR user. I find the MSFS experience in VR to be terrible. If it works for you, great. Enjoy.

I tried VR and it looks terrible in MSFS.

Workaround for now:
I still have to test this out for myself. Iām still updatingā¦
I do and many others still do. And Asobo obviously do care otherwise they wouldnāt have supported it. Why do you care so much about people using TrackIR? Fly away troll.
To everyone else: itās an annoying issue but there is a workaround. Thereās an command you can assign called toggle head tracking, assign it to your joystick, throttle or just a keyboard command and when the Tracking stops you can just hit that and enable it again. Annoying but until Asobo sorts it out its the best way to āfixā the problem.
Thereās a bug thread here you can vote on as well Track IR Stops Working

Well, I do, because I absolute hate wearing a VR headset. If reseting the camera makes it work again itās managable until a fix comes around. I always have bound Track IRās reset camera function to a joystick button anyway to correct for tracking drift over time. I hope it does the trick ā¦ if not ā¦
Great quality control at any rate. Seven Sim Updates in and every single one breaks a few important and VERY obvious things (you know ā¦ like being able to click and drag the world map, which simply canāt be missed!). Every single update! Without fail! Gotta admire the consistency and the āAh hell, letās release it as is anywayā gung ho attitude.

Lol I think they dumped Track IR in favour of tobii which incidentally works brilliantly!
Thatās what Iām thinking as well. It will be annoying, but not game breaking and I can wait until SU8. Assuming of course they fix it in SU8.
And VR evangelists are the gaming equivalent of preachy vegans.

No, I love my trackIR. I sold my reverb g2ā¦ Vr just is a letdown to me.

Losing the mouse scrolling ability on world map is unforgivable! That & killing TrackIR. Grrr!

These are updates are so infuriating!
I am absolutely fed up stuff getting broke with almost every updateā¦ Why release it when it obviously is not ready for prime time!
Can we have a Hotfix please that fixes Trackir and other obvious bugs? The release notes are wrong. It doesnāt work at all anymore!

Well, if you plug in an XBox controller you can still control the world map with that. Go figure ā¦ (and Iām not one of the āXBox will kill the PC versionā folks. Makes you think, though ā¦ 
)
Apparently resetting your mouse control profile fixes this. Iāve yet to try it myself, so I canāt confirm.
