I found something like the trackir but I am not sure whether this stuff is working or not for the BS. this product name is the HAT-Track. Is there someone use this for the black shark? this support 6 DOF. please share your experience using this Thanks for your reply in advance
DaWu Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 never heard of. I would stick with trackir its the best and works perfect
sarancha Posted December 31, 2008 Author Posted December 31, 2008 There is just only one store to sell the TrackIR in korea. but Trackclip pro is sold out and then I can't buy TrackIR only. It's too expensive to buy it from another country.
Gael Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Freetrack works nice for me. I'm sure webcams are cheaper in Korea.

It's too expensive to buy it from another country. Is it still too expensive even if you buy it from a place like Amazon.com? Can't you order it from Amazon even if you're in Korea? http://www.amazon.com/TrackIR-Head-Tracker-Including-Vector-PC/dp/B000DZDFKE/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1230697645&sr=8-11
Grodin Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Looks like a TrackIR without that TrackIR price. You can get it done for much cheaper tho if you do it yourself: Webcam 10$ 3 IR Leds : 1$ Some wires, old diskette, etc... and ur done :) Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.
aledmb Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 freetrack ftw! but to work in dcs, you have to download a patched file because tir is changing again :(
Chillspider Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 the only Difference between TrackIR 4 and freetrack is that TrackIR 4 is 120 FPS sample rate and most people i talk to with freetrack said that the webcam they have only uses like 30. and its not as smooth but its not bad. I love my trackIR 4 PRO but i would recommend freetrack to anyone who didnt want to spend the money . But if you dont mind spending it i would buy trackIR..

sarancha Posted December 31, 2008 Author Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) Freetrack works nice for me. I'm sure webcams are cheaper in Korea. Wow. I found that freetrack 2.2 support for Wii remote controller(100fps and no cpu util) better than webcam(30fps, cpu util). I will try to make a wiimote freetrack Thanks Edited December 31, 2008 by sarancha
Chillspider Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 thats cool sarancha did you check out that guy who made a power glove from a wii controller and he can just look at a panel and put his hand up to the screen and flip the switch.

Yes, I saw that article. It's a real great thing. I will buy two wii controllers. one make for freetrack and the other make for a touch panel. but I don't make a glove type but make IR spring pen like following http://t9t9.com/362
tusler Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 From what I see, it only works in MS FS and it cost 70Euros which today is $97 smakaroos. I find it strange but even in the PDF manual for this Hat Track it claims it will only work with MSFS. I emailed them and asked why? When I get an answer I'll post it. The price would not be too bad for store bought 6 deg system if it works with everything like Track IR does. Ask Jesus for Forgiveness before you takeoff :pilotfly:!

CE_Mikemonster Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 When I was researching buying my TrackIR4 I saw that on a couple of European sites, but apparently not very common. Having seen the simplicity of TrackIR/Freetrack though I don't see this product necessarily being worse. Suppose it'll just need a lot of research before you decide if it's worth getting? Looks a bit like it's only worth it if it's considerably less expensive than TrackIR. Too many cowboys. Not enough indians. GO APE SH*T
CoNa Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) Hi English is not my natvie language. I hope you get my drift. I found something like the trackir but I am not sure whether this stuff is working or not for the BS. this product name is the HAT-Track. Is there someone use this for the black shark? this support 6 DOF. please share your experience using this Thanks for your reply in advance I have experiance with other VRi equipment and I must say they work very well. This Hat Track works more or less as Freetrack or Trackir. Even though it just say compatible with FS9/FSX, I have seen some video of it running some racing game too. So it should work with any game that has the feature. Best is to ask on their forum. http://vrinsight.com/phpBB3_en/index.php I would put it between the Trackir (120fps) and Freetrack (30fps) both in performance (HT has 60fps) as well as in price. http://www.simw.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=dsp_product_details&pid=2084 One other feature it has is speech recognition.
