Feature Enhancements

• Improved handling of situations where User Interface Privilege Isolation could interfere with TrackIR title integration, such as hotkeys failing to work when a TrackIR Enhanced title is run with elevated (administrator) privileges but the TrackIR software is not.

Fixes

• Fixed a regression in TrackIR 5.4.1 where DirectInput joystick buttons 33-128 were not usable for hotkeys.

Known Issues

• Since version 5.3.0, the TrackIR software requires Windows Vista or newer, and can no longer be used with Windows XP or below.

Fixes

• Updated digital signatures in response to Microsoft / Internet Explorer deprecation of SHA1 as signature hash algorithm (KB3123479). This was causing the download to be flagged as having an "invalid" signature.

Known Issues

• Since version 5.3.0, the TrackIR software requires Windows Vista or newer, and can no longer be used with Windows XP or below.

New Features

• Added a toggle setting: "Automatically Minimize On TrackIR Enhanced Title Launch." In prior versions of the software, this behavior would always occur.

Feature Enhancements

• Joystick/controller hotkeys now correctly differentiate between devices, rather than treating e.g. "Button0" on every device as identical.
• The 2D camera view is now horizontally mirrored (similar to a standard webcam) for a more intuitive user experience. If desired, it's possible to revert to the previous behavior using the viewport context menu; see the manual for details.

Fixes

• Fixed an issue where certain settings (including template curves) might not be correctly migrated to per-user settings directory.
• Fixed an issue where certain NVIDIA GPUs might step down to a lower power state while the TrackIR software was active.
• Fixed an issue where the settings pane could appear truncated at large vertical resolutions.
• Fixed an issue where hotkeys bound to recenter would trigger a second time on release, rather than just when pressed.
• Fixed an issue where mouse hotkeys could exhibit noticeable latency.
• Fixed a crash when resizing the window after the hardware had been disconnected.
• Clarified the text of several error messages.
• Fixed ranges of speed/smoothing slider increment buttons.
• Increased default splitter width to remove unnecessary horizontal scrollbar from settings pane.

Known Issues
