Free Head Track

:
Freetrack
Facetrack which doesn't even need LEDs

ReFaN · 09-03-10, 12:19 PM

Got my webcam, removed the IR filter placed negative film, put the TrackClip pro on my headset, installed fretrack, and Voila!

Nothing, nothing happens when i move my head, im sad.

Is your cam recognized (and functioning) according to the control panel/device manager in your computer?

Is there something in the Freetrack software that needs to be told which camera/device to use? Do you have to calibrate it first?

ReFaN · 09-03-10, 12:43 PM

May be, its only detecting one of my 3 Leds, when i switch to one point clip it works.

Foggy · 09-03-10, 12:46 PM

Did you change the software to 3-points clip mode?

ReFaN · 09-03-10, 12:48 PM

Yes

Foggy · 09-03-10, 12:48 PM

Check page 7 of the manual:

https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=h...&embedded=true

Or if that doesn't help, maybe something else in the manual will?

ReFaN · 09-03-10, 12:55 PM

Probably, thanks =P

i have identified the problem tho, the leds might be to close to eachother so it only notices one, surely there is a slider to move for this.

Foggy · 09-03-10, 12:58 PM

Yeah, on page 7 of that manual that I referenced, it shows that there is a place you can plug the dimensions of your 3-point clip into. Only problem is, it doesn't say what those dimensions are in, but I'm guessing millimeters...

ReFaN · 09-03-10, 01:03 PM

Yea, i found the Millimeters for the Tracklip pro and entered them, still doesent work tho

Foggy · 09-03-10, 01:12 PM

I'm guessing you also went through the initial system startup, as detailed on page 8...

Not sure what it could be. There's no troubleshooting guide in the manual, so you'd probably have to go back to the FreeTrack forum and get a login and ask for help, unless you can find a similar problem posted by someone else...

ReFaN · 09-03-10, 01:39 PM

oh geez, my glasses is reflecting my screen, without them it works =/

Foggy · 09-03-10, 01:42 PM

Haha! At least you figured it out.
