S!

Been using TIR for years..first the 3 + VectorExpansion and now 4Pro with TrackClip Pro. Can not even fly without it if had to use POV views, tested and crashed in a scissor move on ATAG For those using AMD cards do NOT use 12.4 drivers with the latest 5.1.3 TIR software, you will get an error and TIR will not launch. Reason is, from NaturalPoint, some OpenGL files in the new drivers that can cause this. I reverted back to 12.3 WHQL and CAP1 = works as before. Just FYI.

PS! Untamo, no hobby is free

Nope. You mistake weight for value Of course FT is worth the weight of your webcam and IR emitter (if you have one) in gold.

I can vouch for FaceTrackNoIR's awesomeness.

It's a great alternative to those who don't want to spend a bunch on TrackIR or want to try out the whole headtracking thing before purchasing hardware.

FaceTrackNoIR is freeware, requires only a webcam (PS3 Eye for best results), and a human(?) face.

Works great and smoothly once you dial your settings in.

I thought I might chip in here as well.
FaceTrackNoIR is fantastic. I love the fact I don't have to wear anything to make it work either. (Yes, it works when you're naked )

As the above-mentioned post states, once you set it up correctly it's wonderfully smooth, and it just adds so much to the immersion factor.

And, it will only get better.

Track IR is second only to my joystick as a necessity for CloD.

It took me about 6 hours to get used to it and now it's completely second nature to me. Adding Track IR almost instantly doubled my situational awareness in game and at least doubled my skill as a pilot.

S!

Could not imagine flying without TrackIR or any kind of tracking device. It makes everything so much better.
