DCS allows TIR and generic head axis inputs. I use freetrack and PPJoy. Just check the PPJoy box in freetrack, assign the axes in DCS, and it's done.
Unless FT's developers have lobbied for game devs to use the FT API, you can't complain about it not being used.
It's when a game only uses the TIR interface, excluding all others, that I see it as unacceptable.
But at the core of the issue - with 6DoF head tracking, it makes NO sense to have a proprietary API. It's more work for everyone (especially the game devs), and hurts the consumer.
