Fly Black Shark with TrackIR 1 & 2 or Freetrack
 

Some crafty person made Track IR 1 and 2 + Freetrack to work with Black Shark. Good Karma to this person. :up:

Karma loss to NP for abandoning customers with earlier models of Track IR :down:

From the install file:

DCS: Black Shark FreeTrack Fix

Description
-----------

NaturalPoint are using a new encrypted TrackIR interface in v4.1.036 of their software that is incompatible with the standard TrackIR interface used by FreeTrack and TrackIR 1/2. DCS: Black Shark is the first game to use this new interface.

This fix will make DCS: Black Shark compatible with FreeTrack as well as TrackIR 1/2.


Version
-------

Based on the English retail version of DCS: Black Shark.


Installation
------------

Backup the original NewInput.dll in (black shark directory)\bin\stable\ and replace it with the one provided.


Thanks to
---------

Eagle Dynamics for bringing the study sim back.
FreeTrack developers for making head tracking more affordable, accessible and customizable.
FreeTrack community for assistance and testing.



All Degrees of Freedom for Everyone

Excellent news :up:

Also good news for the times to come. Future games with TIR support will most certainly use this same encrypted interface, and it's already cracked wide open.
