are you kidding me, its not computer demanding, and try checking out some of the utube videos on it, and youll see just how stable it is

i'm not kidding, i'm serious, and i don't need to watch youtube videos because i installed it and uninstalled the next day, but if you are happy with it, good for you, it's not my business, probably we have different ideas of what is cpu demanding..

Yeah I tried out facetracknoir and the results were not very good at all. There was giant amounts of lag between the time I would move my head and it would get any reaction on the screen. Maybe it was something to do with the fact that I removed the IR filter from my camera and that is giving it a bad picture or something. But for now I still use freetrack.

The ultimate solution will be whenever anybody makes something that uses a Kinect I guess

I just downloaded Tracknoir first time i heard of it. I ran it without Clod and the memory was bouncing from 25 to 48 % mind you you can see my specs in my sig and its 1am and i just finshed off a big bottle of strawberrie wine with the new wife that keeps saying come back to bed ...what would you do? lol : )

I got the ps3 eye with facetrack noir, uses about 7% cpu for me, not sure about ram, it does occasionly glitch and you have to wait for it to auto restart itself, I'm far to lazy to do the free track, though I might get a trackir at some stage.Between clod and fsx I need all the cpu I can get.

heres what you can expect with facetracknoir, ps3eye and an i7

Don't waste your money on trackir, just buy the trackclip pro. I've bought the PS3 to use FTNOIR, but i'm using freetrack with the trackclip and it is the same thing as using trackir 4 (yes, i tested the 2 myself), i don't think it can get any better than ps3 eye + track clip pro (or if you abandon lazyness a custom homemade trackclip)

I bought the PS3 Eye to use with FTNoIR also, but I want to try Freetrack without modifying the Eye (In case I want to go back to FTNoIR). I was thinking of just attaching a floppy in front of the Eye's lens, and testing with an IR light source before buying a trackclip pro.

Did you modify the Eye? I'm looking for someone who is using the Eye with Freetrack without removing the IR filter.

[SEE]

To test without removing the IR lens, just tape a section of floppy disk over the lens and use a typical TV/video remote control to generate the IR source. Reduce the exposure and see if you can get a dot without stray interference. It will pulse but thats what it should do from a remote control.

A lot of peeps are using the non-moddable PS3 eye's perfectly OK with IR LED's.

if the floppy is too much, try a developed camera film, i use it and works very good.
