Overhauling hotkeys and introducing profiles!
📁 Profiles
Profiles allow to create sets of customized settings. Easily switch, share, duplicate, etc.
- Freetrack 2.0 toggle: turn it ON/OFF in the profile — replaces "Install Opentrack Components"
- Try the "Default Profile": includes cockpit-ready baseline settings ready for Direct Game Camera Control
- Auto migration: your previous settings are converted into profile files
🎮 Hotkeys Upgrade
- Supported devices: Joysticks, Gamepads, Steering Wheels, Flight Sticks, Arcade Sticks, Mice
- Multi-binding: assign up to 3 different hotkeys to one action (use different devices for the same command)
- Single-key support: any single key can now be assigned — no modifiers (Ctrl/Alt/etc.) required
🔄 Natural Movement: "Link Camera Position Response to Head Orientation"
Enabled by default in the new Default Profile (recommended).
- How it works: When enabled, moving your head forward (in the direction your nose points) moves the in-game camera toward where the camera was pointing — linking camera translation (x/y/z) to head orientation. Same for sideways/up-down movements
- When disabled: head-forward always moves in a fixed in-game direction (independent of head rotation)
- Result: more natural & immersive feel for most users
Additional Improvements
- Performance: improved Power Plans and CPU usage
- Installation: standalone installer now bundles Game Input + Visual C++ redistributables
