Excellent! I uninstalled IL-2 earlier this year after being unable to get it working. Your tutorial gave me the motivation to re-install and try it again. I noticed in the video that after you set up Opentrack, you simply started the game and it worked. You didn't have to do anything in IL-2 to make sure this setup works properly?
On a fresh install of IL-2, I didn't have to do anything, lol. While I tweaked my OpenTracker curves for the axes to match my MSFS 2024 settings, everything else was perfect. Now if I could just remember how to use the mouse to manipulate controls inside the cockpit...
Thank you for your comment. TBH, it's been some time now, and my memories are not that fresh. I think I directly started IL-2 after I set up Opentrack. As I said, I will have to redo this tutorial, as well as a DCS version of it (which is much easier).
I have followed all your settings and it is only partially working for me. X, Y and Z axis work but pitch and yaw do not work inside IL-2 but does work in the Opentrack software. Any ideas on how to fix this? seems to be an error between Opentrack and Il-2
Hi there, I have never encountered that problem. Did you check your Opentrack settings, 'Options => Output' specifically (Destination to Source) ? Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Hi there, I was pretty much using default settings (Joystick as my main controller). At which state does it not work ? Does Opentrack work alone when you test it without IL-2 ? Do you have problems with IL-2 only or with other games too ?
@@Joe091680 When you open Opentrack, go to "Mapping Properties", then tweak your curves as you wish. You can see it at 02:21 . Z-axis and Yaw-axis will be the ones that you need to modify for a better "rear view". If you have a decent computer, you can tweak it while IL-2 is running, so that you can see the effects of your tweaking. Use the windows shortcut "Alt + Tab" to switch between IL-2 and Opentrack windows.
Thank you it works
I might redo this tutorial, as I realize people can't see my IL-2 BoX ingame settings.

Not working for me. Can you please be more specific in ingame settings? Thank you!

Thanks, but that piano is torturous.
What do I change to look around further behind me?
You have to set your Z axis curve to your liking, in the Opentrack options. Be careful, extreme settings might "glitch" you outside of the plane.
@@PeypaMikko-1842 What is the axis curve under?
