Hi!
I'd like to have a new kind of deadzone. When I play ArmA as a soldier I want to have a DZ that centers my view for slight head movements. To realize it with the current software (2.1), I configure DZs for YAW, PITCH and ROLL with the splines properly. The problem with that approch: When I break out of the initial deadzones, I can look freely around but get stuck on the axes when I cross them, e.g. when I look from topleft to topright to follow a heli, I get stuck on the Y-axis until I overcome the deadzone again. So I only want to have a DZ for pitch, yaw and roll when they ALL are close to 0.0 and not when only a SINGLE one of them is close to 0.0. I'm going to figure out how to compile freetrack, and play a bit with the idea. (Btw: the sources are organized with svn, right? So I can simply checkout the project?) Last but not least... I LOVE freetrack! Thanx Kestrel and all others that made it possible! Just dicovered it 3 days ago and now I have a working 3 point cap ) |

ok... until I figure out to compile this project never writing a line in delphi nor using any borland IDE, I got gray hair.
So I leave the idea as a feature suggestion. bye, aescht |

Axis relative deadzones are a known limitation, centre relative deadzones are on the wishlist but are trickier to implement than they seem when trying to maintain the response curve functionality.

Don't mean to bring up an old thread but it's better than creating a new one I guess. Just wondering if this is still being considered/worked on? I find with the Wii remote's inaccuracy that a deadzone is vital, but only when looking straight-on for aiming at a target. When looking around the cockpit to track an enemy, the change in slow/fast movement when going in and out of an axis's deadzone can lead to inaccurate tracking
If it's not, does anybody else know of a way to overcome this issue?

What I do is set the sensitivity to a setting that I fell comfortable with.
Then I change the curve to linear and give it a small deadzone. I think adjust the left side of the curve to be closer to the bottom but not completely there. I find I have great movement with those settings. It would also benifit to include a smoothing number for each axis of movement. I have 20-30 is really nice and smooth. |
