TrackIR support?

Will ArmA have TrackIR support?

It'd be the perfect game for it, specially when flying helicopters. Although I'm convinced that the infantry would also benefit.

For those who've never heard of it, TrackIR is a simple infrared tracking camera that captures the movement of your head and translates it as head movemernts in the game. I made some small videos of Aces High II to show how it works:

FW190 cockpit

Misc planes

Once you've tried it's hard to play anything without it.

I thought OFP worked with TrackIR? (With some fiddling)

If so, OFP will work

How save is TrackIR?

You need to (in the search page) change the time to search, it's default is this month, putting it to "From the beginning" throws up loads more results

Thanks a lot for the help Onyx

After checking those threads I think I've reached the same cul-de-sac as everyone else...

It's possible to run TrackIR in mouse emulation mode and it almost works, but not quite: If you enable freelook (* key) it all works fine until you touch the joystick. Then the camera turns to the front and the only thing you move is the cursor. For some reason they've blocked the mouse look when you are using a joystick, which spoils the whole thing.

That's why I was wondering if ArmA would support it properly, specially with the 6DOF upgrade.
