I had the same issues you did, and tried the same stuff to resolve it to no avail, although track ir was running, it wouldn’t recognise the game was there. Inside the BoS/data folder, there is a file called start up.cfg. Look there and find the line that tells you track ir old = 1…I changed mine to a 0 and ran the game and it bloody well worked
[KEY = input]
exclusive = 1
input_map = “input.map”
mouse_plane_control = 0
old_trackir = 0
