Are you using a Head Tracking device?

Are you using a Head Tracking device? What kind? Does it make the experience better for RSI?

 

[Printimus]

No.

 

[marcsand2]

Yes
TrackIR 5 with TrackClip Pro
No, it doesn't make the experience better for RSI but it makes the experience for me awesome.

Is there any other IR device that you would recommend that is not as expensive?

I never tested other head tracking devices, found others which use webcams. I don't know if they are supported in SC. You can search that on Reddit.
A big disadvantage of the TrackClip Pro is its left-side mounting and the USB power cable. There are active (LED) wireless alternatives.

I just noticed, the UTC when used with TrackIr 5 also must be placed on the left side of your headphones because otherwise the TrackIR software can go nuts.

I use this:

Have to buy the ps3 eye drivers and FaceTrackNoir also requires a micropayment (cant remember how much but not a lot).

Works pretty good but Im getting TrackIR anyway, less hassle and better software I think:

I have OpenTrack with the LukeClip and I have my settings set. But can not get it to work on SC(and the software is running when on.) Any advice would be great.

 

[Matt W.]

Still isnt working for me! :( someone help. :)

 

[marcsand2]

First of all you should run OpenTrack as administrator

[Matt W.]

thanks, but i have been running my software as administrator. The links have been things that I have seen and are no help. thanks for the post though. :)

 

[Doggen]

did you bind the axes? Axis? Axesses?

 

[Matt W.]

in SC? It wont work in SC even when trying to bind.

 

[Matt W.]

This is what my Opentrack looks like. doesnt look the same as what is on that website.

 

[Matt W.]

It is the newest version, too.

 

[Doggen]

And you are using lukeclip and a PS3eye?

 

[Matt W.]

And you are using lukeclip and a PS3eye?

yes, I am.

 

[Matt W.]

OpenTrack and or FTNOIR track me just fine. it wont work in SC. I am running all my programs as admin

 

[marcsand2]

No experience with those, TrackIR works out of the box.

I just started using the ED-tracker pro.
Still trying to get it just right.
