FaceTrackNoIR- Free Headtracking Solution

This is a good device if the TrackIR costs just a bit too much for you. Its a headtracking solution that uses a standard webcam to track your face, and with a little tomfoolery and such, allows you to utilize Freetrack and TrackIR enabled games' headtracking! Definitely check it out- it's gone through some updates over the years, and it works fantastically now!

do u use the delanclip and facetracknoir ? i use a delan clip and freetrack 2.2 with a ps3 camera with a floppy disk filter i find i do have to sit quite close for it to be smooth

Yes, I use that combination - tried freetrack initially but had some teething issues with Windows 7 64 bit. I went to FTNoir as I'd used that previously without a pointer. It seems ambient lighting around you is a big factor, I loose at least one of the three points on the Delanclip when I move my head.

I found playing with the Threshold makes a positive effect on smoothness but it seems I have to play around with it every time I use the thing - unless I decide to play at the same time, under the same lighting, sitting in the same place everytime....

Well I only paid £25 instead of £150 so happy with some use I guess!

im also windows 7 64 im guessing u got the same flat LED's u got to make sure that they are point right into the camera and my camera is less than a arms length away and sits on a upside down tall glass to make sure the level is right and square or as i turn my head the middle LED blinks out and in the the camera settings i turn the colours and gain and exposure right up and take it off auto and make sure there is no other lights shinning in and........my point size is 1 pixel to 15 pixels by memory i did have to change the min point size to see the dots better

So I'm having problems getting the sensitivity dialed in. Is there an .INI most people are using for Arma that I'm missing?

Also my Microsoft webcam keeps auto focusing (has the effect of leaning forward in game) and I can't find a way to disable it in FaceTrackNoIR.

[Rowena]

FTNR won't be able to control auto-focus. You'll need to disable that via your camera's drivers.

As for the sensitivity- curvature settings are something you just have to play around with... what's comfortable for some is weird for others.

Here are some curve settings I use myself. They might be a guide. Hope they help!

Maybe you could help. I checked this out once and it bugged out on me all the time, locking my head in strange places. Could it possibly be my lighting causing issues (I tried a couple of different lighting options), or windows 8, or facail hair? I made sure that the camera I was using was confermed as working with the software too.
