¿ ENABLE CUSTOM AXIS SHAPING
This checkbox is a bit oddly placed since it is not really related to view control. By activating it you
can tell Falcon to ignore any deadzone and saturation settings and instead read the axis 'shape'
from a file supplied by an external application. WIP.
¿ ENABLE MOUSELOOK
Using this button you can enable the mouselook mode introduced with the BMS releases. Please
note that it is not possible to inverse mouse axis direction.
¿ TRACKIR
You have to activate the naturalpoint software before starting up Falcon ! If you fail to do so, the
TrackIR related buttons will never light up, and you will be unable to change TrackIR related
options ! You can enable 2D and 3D TrackIR support independently of each other, so it is no
more required to activate 3d TrackIR for 2d TrackIR to work. Should initialization fail, then the
button will not light up but stay dark instead. Please note the additional TrackIR configuration
options in the falconbms.cfg file, which can be accessed by the BMS configuration editor. See the
TrackIR chapter for a description of these options.
¿ CUSTOM AXIS SHAPING
This button allows Falcon to load custom axis 'response curves' from a file generated by an
external program. These response curves allow the user to change an axis' input characteristics
to a nonlinear mode. This operation is sometimes also referred to as 'axis shaping'. The external
program needed will be released at a latter date.
¿ ENABLE FORCE FEEDBACK
This button allows you to enable or disable force feedback effects on your flight controller. This
button will only light up if Falcon has detected a force feedback joystick as your flight controller,
otherwise it will stay dark all the time. If you disable force feedback, the joystick should enable
autocentering, that is, it should emulate springs using its actuators, but it should not play any
additional effects. The playback of the "stall" Force Feedback effect is deactivated while the
combat autopilot is active.
