CFS3 Headtracking

[rtoolooze]

Don't know if this is where I should ask this, but I can't get headtracking to work. I'm using Delan Clip with Opentrack and can't find a way to get it to work. Works fine with WOFF-UE, Falcon 4 BMS, FSX....ect.
Thanks

I have no idea how your system sets up cf TrackIR. Perhaps more detail?

A little Google searching shows some people having unresolved troubles getting it to work with FSX and no one actually using Opentrack successfully with CFS3.

I use TrackIR version 5.4.2.27545 without any particular trouble.

The software I'm using is Opentrack, and it works fine for all my other sims including FSX and even ARMA 3

I've been looking into head-tracking with various sims, and I'm using a homemade IR clip together with Opentrack in the majority of flight sims which support this. However, I couldn't get this to work in CFS3, and I didn't want to invest a huge amount of cost in the official TrackIR.

I couldn't find a great deal of recent activity on this subject, so I thought I'd update this thread with my recent experience.

The solution which worked for me is FaceTrackNoIR together with a cheap MS Lifecam VX-5000.

The software is very cheap - cost me EUR3.45, and I got the camera from an auction site, so overall less than EUR10 for the whole setup and it seems to work well.

Just be aware that you need to make sure you've got decent lighting, otherwise it will not work.

I hope this helps somebody out.
