Just tried Track Ir

[Blackadder]

I just ordered one. I didn't realise how many games I had which it works for and I have had ARMA 2 on my soon to buy list since christmas so more use will come from it. It is really expensive, so much so that I almost didn't buy it but I figure that if I get lots of use out of it then the cost will be worth it in the long run.

It takes a bit of getting used to in Arma2 (and CLOD/ROF for that matter), but once your use to it - it adds a whole new dimension to the game.

Cant and will not fly without it. Not only for the ease and edge it gives but also for the immersion it adds.

Furbs could you send me your profile?

I setup facetracknoir in conjunction with a PS3 Eye camera a few days ago and after some tweaking I'm very impressed by how well it performs in CloD and other games. FTN tracks at 50fps/640x480 resolution and as long as the lighting is good I get very smooth and responsive face tracking. CPU usage (i5 2500k) is around 10-15% but has had no impact on game performance so far.

Face tracking is so immersive and I'd highly recommend it if you're on a budget or the idea of wearing leds doesn't appeal.

I tried FTN/Ps3 eye before I ordered my trackir and I found it very jumpy no matter what the settings and it ate up loads of cpu, about 25% of my i5 2500k. It had potential and I reckon if I spent the time on it I could get it to a sweet state but I have spent to much time messing around with various games/mods and programs recently that I just want something that works as I want it straight off for a change so I went for trackir.

If I only had one or 2 games that I would ever really use face tracking for then I would probably have taken the time with FTN/ps3 eye but seeing that I already own 6 trackir enhanced games and will buy 2 more soon I figure it is worth going the whole hog.

My cpu usage was higher to begin with too but just sitting a tad closer to the camera (I usually sit quite far from my monitor anyway) and getting good even lighting cuts down it's workload dramatically.
