tmansteve Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 After some trials and mistakes I have got facetracknoir and delanclip working. When I am in facetracknoir and setting the delanclip, I keep losing a dot or two. Is there a recommended height and distance between the clip and ps3eye to work correctly? Also, I am having trouble with zooming in and out. Any help would be very appreciated and when I have got it stable, I will be doing a complete tutorial for all newbies to this. Cheers Steve
wormeaten Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) How did you losing dot or two? Is they canceling itch other or you just lost it? First of all make sure you enter correct distance and angle form your clip to cam. Than enter correct values for clip LED distance. Best position for placing cam is opposite from your clip depend on which side of headphones you place it. Clip should look in direction of PS3eye in 90deg. also make sure you positioning your cam so 3dots should be in center of the screen and should not exit when you are moving. This could happened if you are to close to cam and zoom. Unzoom could fix this problem. All this should reduce possibility to dots overlap and cancel one another. If dots disappear just like that than in cam setup play with threshold values. That also depend on light in room and did you remove or not IR filter from cam. Also could be problem with clip or better say if it is create correctly with proper resistors and power value. For example I got proper values for rechargeable 2.4V batteries but when they close to be empty that start to happened to me but I know need to be recharged. BTW I'm using opentrack. Free track didn't release patch for almost 3 years, FTnoIR is still developing but opentrack is releasing patches more friquent and I thing it is better now. https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/releases Edited July 27, 2015 by wormeaten
tmansteve Posted July 27, 2015 Author Posted July 27, 2015 Many thanks for reply. I haven't removed the IR Filter from my cam yet as I don't want to bust anything. When I was Calibrating it, on the bottom it was saying 2 dots bad on a few occasions. As I turned my head I could see the crosshair disappear. I got my clip from Delan Engineering. I'm not sure about entering distance and angle from clip to cam. Where do I enter clip LED distance?

I'm not sure about entering distance and angle from clip to cam. Where do I enter clip LED distance? OK. Delan clip is good made so this is not problem. Could be one more problem I didn't mention it. If you use floppy as light filter this is sometime to much if you didn't remove IR filter and you don't need too. for me best filter was 1 layer made with exposed photo film. You can get one in some photo shop where they doing old fashion analog photography. There is always beginning of the film exposed and it is thrown to garbage. You will get it for free. Here is example of my clip and cam setup. Under camera settings you have orientation and threshold setting. On model you have model dimensions and position from center of your movement what is in neck position. Remember middle LED is reference point for entering values.

Aerovenator Posted July 28, 2015 Posted July 28, 2015 Perhaps you can get some improvements by editing the "Min / Max Diameter" Settings. I7-9700K -- 32GB RAM -- RTX 4070 -- Virpil T-50CM3 Throttle + WarBRD Base -- Thrustmaster TPR -- Quest 3
wormeaten Posted July 28, 2015 Posted July 28, 2015 Perhaps you can get some improvements by editing the "Min / Max Diameter" Settings. Yes I don't have IR filter so my diameters is high, even to high by my taste.
