I am currently using this for ROF, not perfect but not bad, its free all you need is a web cam (better with a PS3 EYE) .
http://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/home/default.htm
here is a video someone made a few years in il2/1946 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDYfEYBEG90
i put this in the wrong forum, can a mod move this please

Hi,
I have been trying to get this to work with CloD but no success. I am using a Logitech webcam that is on the compatible list. I get movement in the cockpit but it is just not usable. If you ever get it working on CloD I sure would like to see your settings.
Cheers,
DK

do u have a zoom feature on your camera? if so make sure it centers on your head and that your head fills up most of what you see in the preview window, the yellow outline should appear around your face and you can test movement before entering game. as for the "curve" i am still getting that sorted out.Originally Posted by DK_

ok DK here is what i have so far, the PS3 EYE ($15 at game stop) works very well, constant 29 fps and very smooth, I found this profile at simhq by jimmyblonde, save the code below as CLOD.ini and drop it in your FTN settings folder, then load it when FTN starts, NUMPAD7 =center NUMPAD1=on/off
If you are going to use a PS3 EYE you will need this driver http://codelaboratories.com/get/cl-eye-driver/ and this program http://download.manycam.com/
start manycam first then FTN

I'll suggest Freetrack.
Working perfecly here with cheap camera.
I am going that route myself, but i am going to be lazy and order the pro clip from NP
I am impressed though...FTN works quite well for freeware
I never tried FTN but I think FT and TrackIR should be more precise, tracking only 3 points.
Anyone who want to go that way, I can help you )
That happened to be meit also shows bloom mod effect release with edited .dll for IL-2 1946
Thanks oddball, I will give it a go and get back to you.
Cheers!

thee_oddball,
I have not been able to find where to put the coding you supplied. I am running W7 64 bit and I can't find the face track noir file. I assume there is a config file where I could put in your settings but I haven't found it yet. It is not listed in program files x86. Do you know where I can find the file and is the code you posted meant to replace the config file?
I don't have the PS eye thing, I am trying to use a Logitech webcam, zoomable, that is on the compatible list.
Thanks and cheers,
DK

I just broke down and bought Track IR 5 and it came in yesterday. After an hour of screwing around setting up a profile, I have to say I love it. Takes a bit of getting used to like anything worthwhile but I have noticed that it is much smoother and natural in IL2 1949 than it is in Clod on the same settings. Not sure why that is but there you go. They also screwed up the shipment initially and only sent a Pro Clip (which I didn't order). So they sent the unit and I get to keep the Pro clip which I have not tried yet. It's all good.
Me too, gave up and got a trackir proclip today. First flight made me a little dizzy. Hope I can get used to it. It is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. It's unusual to turn your head and eyes in opposite directions.
I will try the tips from this thread http://theairtacticalassaultgroup.co...3523-Track-IR5
Won't be able to try it out until next week though.

It'll take you about 6-8 hours to get used to TrackIR. If you start feeling sick just take a break and come back to it later.
I was ready to throw mine off the balcony after 2 hours of use, but I was told to stick with it and I did.
Trust me when I say that after you've become "one" with your TrackIR you'll never let go of it.

I thought the reason people recommended the PSeye was because its a cheap cam that can do 120fps?
Its been a while since I tried out facetrack but I thought it works best a low resolutions and high fps capture.
if i remember correctly the PS3 can do 125 FPS but the program can only do 30...but with all tha overhead the FPS never dips below 30
I use the PS3 cam with freetrack and it uses the 120 FPS.
FaceTrackNoIR 1.70 supports point tracking like Freetrack and TrackIR. The smoothing and responsiveness are far better than Freetrack and for PSEye you don't need a patched, specific version of the CLEye driver. It doesn't have relative translation yet, but they are working on it. They built it to be modular so they can develop input, output and smoothing APIs and drop them into the interface.
It's a work in progress, but there is an inertial input module which uses gyros instead of IR light which, as we all know is subject to lighting conditions in the room. Very promising stuff.

thanks... thee_oddball...
how did you found this software...
I instaled this, 60 min ago, and
IT WORKS BEST...
I will play one time with my trackIR... and one time with my webcamera...
I like idea... nothing on my head...
I'm using FTNoIR with PS3EYE and TrackCclip Pro also. It works great. A piece of old floppy disc over the lense makes it usable almost all day except around sunset when the bright sunlight shines in directly behind my head. Then I have to improvise a screen to block the light as I share the room and closing the curtains is not on.
The 30fps max some of you are seeing with it is a limitation imposed by the CLEye driver for windows. The cam can do 120fps cut the driver caps it at 30.
Drop the attached file into your FTNoIR directory and get rid of the .txt. Fire up FTNoIR and you can now set the cam max fps to 99. It will run at whatever max you system imposes up to 120. To save CPU usage limit the cam in FTNoIR to the same as your monitor's refresh rate.

I know this thread is more than a year old, but it got me started with head tracking... at least until I can afford a trackir (or maybe not).
Re: FaceTrackNoIR
Yeah.
Determined to get the FTN up and running smoothly.
For some reason it just stopped reponding in CLOD.
Go figure.
It tracks fine out of game. but as soon as i enter the game ...poof nada. The game just doesn't "see" it.
Hawk,
Try starting the game and then the software. I remember when I was first trying to get it working I had the same problem. If that doesn't work let me know, you're very close.
Happy Hunting,
Thanks Bear
It was a synchronizing issue!
Ladies first I suppose?
Glad to hear it's working! FNOIR definitely has it's pitfalls but for the overall price I think it's a great starter in face-tracking. I know mine gives me fits at times and probably costs me a kill here or there when it decides to act up just before going guns but the immersion alone is enough to keep me coming back to it no matter how frustrating it gets. I'll probably be upgrading to the real deal soon though, at least that's the plan.Thanks Bear

Happy Hunting,
As freetrack 2.1 crash on Win 7 64 + COD
As freetrack 2.2 don't keep my settings when i launch COD ( rebooting cam settings ...)
deffinetly, i manage to make it work good, maybe better than freetrack : Facetracknoir + Pointtracker 1 plugin.
It is smooth in COD, less in BOS ( maybe CPU thread priority usage as freetrack does with fsx )
The way to do it :
take care to affect the "center" key in settings everything will be easier .... ( option and mouse shortcut in menu) I affect middle mouse.
PM i only use Pitch raw + Z axis. other are not checked as this is enough for me to be happy in CLod dogfight and patrol
first I install freetrack 2.2
then I install facetracknoir 1.7 complete package over freetrack folder.
here my Cod Profile and curves
here my settings ini
put it in Freetrack/settings

I know this is an old thread but here goes.. I've just set up FTNoir with a PS3 eye and Delan Clip. All good at the moment - just need to play around with the curves for a while,,
But, when I look behind and want to lean 'out' of the cockpit I have to move in the opposite direction. I seem to remember a button or tick box in freetrack that sorted this but cant seem to find something similar in FTNoir - anyone have any ideas?
