Opentrack Not Working
I use opentrack as an alternative to track IR. Since the recent update, it no longer works with Arma.

If anyone is in the same position and has found a solution, please let me know. Im still trying to get it to work on the 64bit client.

Thanks

Hello, I can report the same issue but with Freetrack. It only works with 32-bit version.
I will try out opentrack soon.
One question tho: Is opentrack working online? like on Battleye protected servers?

I think so. I have joined several public servers with opentrack in the background and I haven't had any problems with battleeye. A

And I haven't found a solution to the opentrack working on 64bit arma.

That's great! Yea I uninstalled and reinstalled arma 3 when the update dropped and during the trouble shooting, I uninstalled/reinstalled opentrack. I checked the setting on both Arma and Open; they continue to be the same.

But if it works for you, thats good. At least it works and its something having to do on my end. I guess I'm overlooking something? I don't know. I'll check it out once more.


Thanks!

If you need any other testing i can do it.
My only concern was if battleye would block opentrack.
Have not yet tried multiplayer with it. I just got into head tracking...
I did a lot of research: one thing that i have read was to try NOT to run opentrack as admin.

I appreciate it. And yea, I don't run Open as admin anyway. If I can't get it to work, I'll probably just stick with 32bit, as it seems to work with that at the moment.

Just to be sure, under controller setting, the headtracker is called "Opentrack" and not "Track IR" correct? When it used to work for me, I would use "Opentrack". Now, the only option is Track IR as Open doesn't show up anymore.

Well that's the only one showing. (for me)
Since i only installed it yesterday. Try to enable TrackIr in arma controllers.
I think thats is your problem...

This is the options I get when Opentrack is working with Arma. Track IR is disabled, and "FreeTrack" is enabled. Opentrack is the FreeTrack option. This is before the update and when using the 32bit version.

I do not get the "FreeTrack" option under the 64bit version.

Can you please share what you found out?

BE reports blocking NPClient64.dll. As a result no tracking device is showing in Arma 3 controllers. Has anyone found a solution to this?
