FOXTracker VS aitrack

I see you're using AITrack. I had some issue with it in terms of tracking and I switched to FoxTracker. It works in the same fashion, check the settings though to switch the direct game control off.

I've been using FOXTracker for a while. I like it, and it works with opentrack just fine, but I do notice it uses around 300 MB of memory. Seeing how DCS is pretty memory intensive and sometimes crashes due to memory maxing out, I was wondering if FaceTrackNoIR was less memory intensive so as to leave me more wiggle room.

I'm using FOXtracker, it works with opentrack or can be used by itself. In my personal opinion, after using both for a while, FOXtracker is smoother and more accurate than AItrack. I was thinking in build a DIY TrackIR clip, but FOXtracker works so fine that I think is not necessary.

There's another head tracking solution called FoxTrack that utilize a webcam to perform head tracking. A PS3 webcam is recommended since it's cheap and has 60 fps.

Additionally you can use https://github.com/AIRLegend/aitrack to get good head tracking and you don't need to run it with the same WINE prefix, since it uses UDP to communicate. Just run it casually from your OS (via WINE for example). But OpenTrack still need to run in the same WINE prefix ofc.

For rudimentary head tracking, you can use a webcam with AiTrack.

If you have a decently modern phone you can get the smoothtrack app on your phone for $10. You can use that as an input for opentrack. I've been using that for a while, and it seems to be working well. Apparently you can also use a regular webcam in opentrack using aitrack, but I haven't personally used it so I can't vouch for how well it works.

I would use ai track (https://github.com/AIRLegend/aitrack) instead of a track ir system since it only uses a decent webcam and in my experience is pretty reliable.

OpenTrack plus AITrack is 100% free. If you don't have a webcam, toss in DroidCam for Android/iOS and use your smartphone.

run opentrack https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/releases to get the curves and mapping and aitrack https://github.com/AIRLegend/aitrack for head tracking. 200% better for me.

I use AITrack to use a webcam to read my face. This means that the only peripheral I need is a webcam, no other headsets or hats.
