I have said many times that games should be available for any and all aternative forms of headtracking.. this is the consensus reached and was reached very early in the piece, here is however a sticking point

that is the sticking point

Alternative forms of headtracking is a relative newcomer but hacking is hacking

eg. in 1L2FB1946 we could have something like the following in config.ini

trackIRUse=0
FreetrackUse=1

Would you still object to this?

That is almost word for word what I have said all along. Sadly though other sims/ games have that option (as LoBi will advise us) but quite often that option gets passed over in favour of the NP software.
