ATTENTION --- FOIP not working? This may be the problem.

[CosmicTrader]

Although I am not using FOIP at present, Many people are having problems getting SC to recognise their camera.
I found this post on the SC subReddit and thought that it was worthy of passing on. (Not a lot of info on Reddit is. HA HA)

Please pass this on to those that have FOIP problems.

I hope this helps some of you.
FOIP is a great additiopn to Star Citizen and even 'Ole Cosmic might use it one day.
Cheers.

This is almost impossible to read on the dark setting for the forum. Good find though, sad there was no beer mentioned with the ATTENTION.

Should we not automatically assume there is always beer? If you have to ask at this point some might find that offensive.

For those that can't see that dark font, here is the info that Cosmic posted:

I found a solution for the FOIP not working problem!
Yay! After much tinkering and trying to follow advice I searched inside SC files for a clue.
There's a file named Game.log inside your LIVE folder.
Open SC, try to set camera / FOIP, fail at it, close SC.
Then look at Game.log ... there is a lot of stuff inside there, but at the end of the file I found the following lines:

<18:22:36> [FACEWARE] Found 2 cameras
<18:22:36> [FACEWARE] Camera #0 'HD Pro Webcam C920' [...]
<18:22:36> [FACEWARE] Camera #1 'Logi Capture' [...]
<18:22:36> [FACEWARE] Selected camera #1 'Logi Capture' [...]

This helped me a lot to find the problem, the game was detecting 2 cameras and told me which one was trying to use (wrong one, of course). In my case this was the program Logitech Capture, which I uninstalled and then the game only found one camera, and it worked ... at last!!!
So if you are still battling with this issue, try to search into the Game.log file, it may throw you a clue to find what is messing with your setup :D
Don't have any kind of way to call everyone who had the problem, so I hope that somehow .... the ones who are interested can find this post XD I know I've been trying for a couple months :(
By the way, I was using a C920 Pro
PS: CIG please, put a device selector there.

Thank you Cosmic for that INFO.

Is there not beer here at all times though? Do we have to bring attention to beer that is already here and known to be here? Fridges are always freshly stocked.
