FreeTrack

Recommended Posts

Hi!

Sorry if the answer is somewhere on the forum, i have searched but couldn´t find anything that helped me.

Just built me a 3 point clip and set up the FT software. The skull follows my headmovements pretty good in the software but i cant get it to work in Arma 3 or arma 2 OA.

I dont get any indication too that the games recognize the tracker.

Is there anything I have to do in these games to activate Free Track?

I have looked around in the games but can´t find anything

System:

I5 750

6870 graphics

8gb ram

Logitech 210 camera (ir filter removed and film attached in 3 layers)

Windows 7 64-bit

I have uninstalled freetracker, disabled UAC and reinstalled the software but it didn´t change anything.

I have tried to find any Freetrack option in the settings in the games but can only see TrackIR.

Is there a setting in ARMA that i have to activate or how have You other ppl done to get the game to "see" the tracker?

I found one line with Freetrack in a .Arma3Profile file and there it was set to 1 (freeTrack=1)

Anyone have any ideas?

It should be listed under Configure -> Controls -> Controller -> Customizable Controllers

Thx for the answer. There is nothing under there except for Track IR so somehow the game doesn´t see it i guess.

Any ideas what to do?

I have now tried the clip on another computer and it works great there in Arma 3. On my computer it only works in the freetrack software and it is not even choosable in options ingame.

Apparently there is something on this computer that blocks Arma 3 to recognize the freetrack program or i am lacking some software that freetrack needs.

Is there anyone that might have any ideas what to try before I try my next move and reinstall the whole operating system.

Thanks in advance/ Andreas

Make sure you are running things as Admin. I have had no issues using Freetrack or FacetrackNoIR with the FT plugin (which is better than just FT by itself, btw).

Also using the point tracker with an led rig in tracknoir. Works flawlessly in A3 - you can even emulate a trackir servive from it. Swith to Tracknoir and use the point tracker (you can choose from three tracking methods - face, point cloud, and point tracker) Its pretty much plug and play with A3 - no fiddling
