TrackIR interfaceFreeTrack is compatible with the unencrypted version of NaturalPoint's TrackIR head tracking interface that has widespread support in simulation games. NaturalPoint have been using an encrypted version of the interface in more popular titles since late 2008, these can be identified as requiring TrackIR software version 4.1.036 or higher and are incompatible with FreeTrack.[18][19] First used in DCS: Black Shark,[20] it caused developer Eagle Dynamics to release their own head tracking interface but soon after cancelled it at NaturalPoint's request.[21] FreeTrack compatibility is still possible using [TrackIRFixer] to remove the encryption requirement, however this involves file modification which can conflict with some forms of DRM and online anti-cheat. Currently DiRT 2 and F1 2010 are affected by DRM, refusing to run after the fix has been applied.

TIRViews.dll is a dynamic-link library file distributed with TrackIR software that provides tailored support for a small number of mostly older games, using special interfaces or memory hacks to facilitate view control.[22] Though a violation of the TrackIR software's EULA,[23] it is possible to use the file with FreeTrack.

NaturalPoint's TrackIR interface SDK is only available under a signed license agreement[24] and is covered by a NDA, so while FreeTrack is open source, the TrackIR interface component is required to be closed source.[25]

OK, I thought you were saying that the FT software gets info from NP software.

Carry on.

The NP interface is NP software ;)

your ball I believe :)

You don't need to attack points that I never made. Please leave your straw man at the door.

My post:
"There has been no additions or changes to FT since November 2008 - the FT interface was around before that. Also FT never gets data from TIR."

You disagreed, which logically made me think that you were saying that FT gets data from TIR. If you want to ignore the word "data" or "info" and pretend that I was meaning differently, then you can carry on talking to yourself.

Your quote from wiki is quite valid, but it doesn't affect my views on the matter of head tracking in games.

dragging the circle around so quick, Julian?

the point addressed was your point; "Also FT never gets data from TIR". I'm sorry but you seemed to be incorrect there. I'm also sorry if you saw that as an attack, it wasn't, it was a correction. You've been shown quite clearly, it used to and in some cases still does.
I'm wondering if Dirt2 and F1 2010 are getting the same treatment ArmA 2 got?
Let's hope UBI get the DRM right on this one...


your ball again...

A sim gets joystick position info or data from a joystick.

FT does not get any data from TIR.

Get it?

perhaps you'd like to try that one again?
and don't be rude

Why everytime there is a discussion about Freetrack the end is always FT vs. TIR and copyright infringments?? The question here was "will COD support FreeTrack?". So, if NP couldn't shut down freetrack website i think there is no patent infringments and is only speculation...

nah... its obvious there is copyright infringement
