Go to settings then Controls. Look for the TrackIR column (you might need to move over to the right depending on how many peripherals you have) there's a small down arrow in the tab, click it and make sure it's NOT disabled! Worked automatically for me but it seems some of you are having issues.

Video is still relevant. Thanks for making the setup much easier. Been dissapointed with sub 40fps in VR on low settings. Even on an i7 and 3070ti. Switched to head tracking with this and cranked my graphics to max, 120fps all day long. So much better. Thanks for this video!

Hey Honosuseri, just a quick note to say thanks HEAPS for this video. It worked perfectly the first time, which I am stunned and amazed at. I have tried similar setups before but they never worked. I suspect aiTrack was the missing secret for me - it just seemed so much more reliable than other similar tools. Now I just need to tweak my curves a bit (they're not ideal yet) but what I have now is infinitely better than what I had before! Thanks heaps. Eran from Fight's On.

@@Honosuseri Very much obliged to you for this extra good information, will most certainly get it operational on that basis. Since I fly the F-16C, Mirage F-1CZ and 2000C, I'll also experiment with X-movement, in order to be more easily able to see the MFD's as well as the 2000's AOA meter for butter-smooth landings made easily. Its going to an exhilarating experience - Webcams are wonderfully cheap these days thank goodness.

@Honosuseri Жыл бұрын
Yes I know what you mean, the F-16C has a very laid back seating position. I fly the "Viper" too and it's a pig checking those MFDs in VR and that's 1:1 head movement. I'm looking forward to the EDGE update next year for DCS, multi CPU threads to improve performance. I prefer to fly in VR as it's so immersive....the head tracking is mainly to just hop in and learn features that have been added to the modules, I can easily reference videos or written materials without the VR headset on. I wouldn't go too cheap on the Webcam, or you might have problems. I use the Logitech C920 which can do 1080P for video calls and it obviously works well for the head tracking too even at lower resolution.

Ive tried several different head tracking options. I ordered track ir, dont know why but it would not work, im sure it was just my set up, there were so many good reviews, but i play on a 55 inch tv so that may not work with that. I tried the ps3 camera with the track hat thing, same thing. I also tried opentrack with neuralnet, nope, almost threw in the towel until i tried this, thank you so much! it isnt perfect but definately doable, really the only issue is when looking over at a gauge and you try to move your head closer you go toward the front of the aircraft, not closer to the gauge, but i just use my zoom button. I really am so glad i fount this video, thanks again.

Until I saw how you did it I got to do a bit more fine tuning to get it perfect, or as close as I can. l0l Also that you used AITrack. I had been just Opentrack alone and using the neuralnet track instead of UDP over Network. and AITrack. I watch both of your video's before doing it.

At the moment my only option is to buy the C270 (which you cant remove the filter) and switch to face tracking instead of IR tracking. And here is whe your video shines like the messiah for me 🤣.

I can't apply your settings of the 2nd video since its to twitchy for me but explanations were useful for modifying the opentrack setup I made for point tracking (it was 2 years ago). I can confirm that face tracking needs quite different param values than IR point tracking. At the end of the day I'm very happy. It works fine and I don't need the IR leds on the head or the side. Much more confortable and versatile, not to mention you don't have to unmount any IR filter on the web cam. Didn't know the existence of aiTrack software, it's fantastic for the price lol.

That's fair enough and why I did this video, so people can have head tracking with a monitor cheaply.

High end GPUs are needed which do cost silly money and limits the user base unfortunately.

It's up to you. My c920 is not tracking at 1080p BUT I do use it for calls and capturing video for KZbin where I want that higher quality. So to me it made sense to own a half decent webcam, you can try cheaper webcams but I have no experience using them with AITrack and Opentrack.

I didn't have to do anything in DCS. Check both AI Track & Opentrack are tracking, that you started them. In DCS controls look for the TrackIR column, click on the small marker next to it and ensure "disabled" is NOT ticked.

Correct output stays the same. Neural net tracker as input click on the icon next to it to configure. You might find you don't need to invert the pitch axis like I did for AItrack. You'll still want to tweak the mappings in Opentrack to tune the sensitivity.

Hard to say. Uninstall it and try an older version from Github. Some people have said Opentrack is reported as having a Trojan by their Antivirus (it's a false positive), perhaps AITrack is doing the same and your PC is trying to protect your system. I've not had any issues so can't reproduce your problem to fix it.

Then there must be a setting in game to enable it, if it's not working automatically. I don't personally use it in Elite Dangerous as I play it in VR, which is a 3D experience along with the head tracking. I can't cover every game/sim and how it enables headtracking. This video is for the headtracking software.

The trick with VR is to use Voice Attack (it's really cheap software), then you can speak to get things done. HCS Voicepacks are a nice addition adding famous sci-fi actors who speak back to you as the Ship's AI, it also takes care of binding the keys and the voice commands for you. Can't promise to do it today but I'll reinstall ED and see what happens with Opentrack.

Then perhaps you have anti virus software that decided to delete the file. There is no virus or malware but it can be flagged as a false positive. I've had no issues with Windows built in security measures. If you can't get AI track, Opentrack has "Neural Net Tracker" built in as another option. Select that instead of "UDP over Network".

To be fair I do demo it in the video. I have the webcam view of me along with the cockpit view in DCS. Remember there is a deadzone so the view doesn't change until it detects a certain amount of movement. We are free to tweak this to our liking, I didn't want it to be too senstive but I made a part 2 video where I tweaked the settings further. End of the day this is free software and you can always try it yourself. If it doesn't suit you it's not cost you anything providing you already had a webcam.

Thanks for this video, it worked fine, but the reality is this is nowhere near as good as Trackir 5. I'm currently in the process of switching from Trackir 5 to a new Trackhat plus kit and wanted to give this method a try in the interim, but honestly guys if you can afford it, make the jump to a proper head tracking kit, it's seriously next level compared to this.

You're welcome, to be clear I never said it was better. The video was meant to give people a head tracking option cheaply, so they can put those funds to a HOTAS etc. instead first. People can upgrade how they look around later on but having some form of head tracking really is recommended to enjoy the sim experience. I did a part two video and showed how to tweak the settings further, for me it's good enough for when I'm not flying/driving in VR. All the best, hope you get your new kit soon...have fun!
