TRACKIR Closed window block solutions 1.38 to 1.45 - Updated 12/08/2022

Correct. But if it doesn't work for you... forget it, it's not a good solution anyway.

But why is it not working ? No red line in the console..
Is there a way to get it to work ?
thanks

Well controls.sii, that looks correct, so i don't know why is won't work for you. But like i said, it's far too easy to unblock through a closed window. I turn my head to the closed window and only a slight turn more unblocks. So best to have the open button as well to prevent this.
So no more discussion on this.

Option 1 for ATS & ETS2 game version 1.38/1.39/1.40/1.41
This is for a more realistic sim experience.

Note: This isn't a mod to just drop into your mod manager, you'll also need to follow instructions and edit your controls.sii file.

For who don't have logitech wheel and want to automate the process can use this software : https://www.autohotkey.com/

But you can only open the window to 30%, 70%, 100%.
So I think it's better to use option 7.

[JHTrucker]

@alonzam99 - I assume you offered that info to everyone without even testing this option 1 yourself?
Only having 4 window states is a limitation, but you really don't need more.

Option 7:
100 window opening states.
Head unrealistically stops turning at the drivers window because of scs's poor g_cam implementation.
TIR inside - Auto rotate view outside.
TIR outside "on demand" feature.

Option 1:
4 window opening states.
Head is free to turn just like real life when sat inside a vehicle with the windows closed.
TIR "always on" so full control inside and outside.

If scs had made their g_cam work like my option 1 (no blocking) then mouse/controller/head tracking users would all be able to use it and none of my options would have had to be developed.

As I know this software works with video games, and I think I tested this software in the past in other games and it worked.
If I will have time I will test it in the future, but I don't like the idea that you are limited to 4 opening states, so I think I will stay with option 7 for now.

[JHTrucker]

@alonzam99 - There's no need to test if you're happy with option 7. But you make assumptions without trying, that's all. Just enjoy the driving now, like i am.

Option 1 and option 7 can now be used with this:
