I suggest you all kiss and make up and badger the devs........:grin:


Like FS2004, FSX is TrackIR Enhanced.

http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/...mulator-x.html


Any PC game or simulation that has special support features built in just for TrackIR, is considered to be : TrackIR Enhancedâ„¢ (this applies to all of the games listed below)

Visit our forums and tell us which other games you'd like to see enhanced!

Sort this list of all enhanced games by TrackIR support/release date.


http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/...games-all.html


now, what a lot of FSX/FT users do is pass over the simconnect in favour of hooking into TIR


also, why should anyone who is being "badgered" listen?

Why do you feel need to argue things you now nothing about Wolf_Troll? Just visit Naturalpoint forums and you see TrackIR uses dll hack pre-FSX and SimConnect for FSX, there is no mention of TrackIR or 'TrackIR Enhanced' in software, box or documents and no Naturalpoint anything in Microsoft Flight Simulator series. The Naturalpoint quote is not strictly correct in this case, they want to give better impression than saying they use dll hacks and game interfaces open to anyone.

Bohemia Interactive ArmAII is Freetrack Enhanced!

Why it can be Freetrack Enhanced, Wolf Rider? Because Bohemia Interactive is a company that suport hacks and illegal software?

Don't runaway again!

Man, this NP troll HATES this subject! Is like holy water or garlic to a vampire!

Lose all arguments! Cool! Don't be ridiculous, we are discussing suport for other HT solutions besides TIR, and BIS made it suporting Freetrack! And you can't talk A WORD about the subject!

And now this PATHETIC post? LOL!!!

Question for the devs - give it a tick if you want the devs to answer it

Instead of creating original open source webcam tracking software from scratch like Freetrack, a different approach could be taken -- hijack TrackIR head tracking software itself at the camera driver level. Create a driver that makes your any camera look like TrackIR camera and then all rest of work is done for you, tracking algorithm and game support all provided. Naturalpoint's worst nightmare!

Explains why Naturalpoint were so protective of camera drivers when people wanted to make drivers for Mac and Linux. But they have been reverse engineered lately making it even easier for someone to make a driver hijack. If this were the case with Freetrack I could understand complaint of 'unfair' or 'bad' since it would be completely dependent on downloaded TrackIR software. But of course this not the case with Freetrack, being independent and communicates with games directly with whatever means which is common practice for software.

Freetrack isn't completely independent though...

Yes it is, using FreeTrackClient.dll as Freetrack Interface.

But you will never understand this simple thing...
