Head tracking in BoP on PS3 is possible....

Lets see some pics!

I now have an old mouse donated from my wife's office because it no longer worked. I got it going without much effort (damaged cable) and will begin modding as soon as I get some parts. The mod will allow mouse look to be triggered from my flight stick.

My first attempt at a permanent harness has failed, all materials will be recycled and put to good use in v.2. On the plus side I used a sewing machine for the first time in my life, and managed to stay out of the hospital.

With the kinect and ps eye, I'm hoping we start seeing more head tracking built into these games. The systems are capable of doing it. GT5 has headtracking but you can only do it in arcade mode for some reason.

Brilliant solution in the meantime though.

Hey guys, just a little update. I gave up on the idea of a harness because it was too hard to adjust after installing it on my chair. Instead I now have a piece of denim material which drapes over the back of the chair. This is a lot like my makeshift setup as mentioned above only with more stability and it works well, but looks like ass.

I'm still looking for proper buttons to mount in my flightstick and I'm adding right mouse button so zoom will work in custom or pc stick controls

I will post pics and maybe a vid when it is finished.

I finally recorded some video to share. It's not very exciting because I still suck and you guys don't need to see me getting my ass kicked. I don't have any way to capture video directly so the quality isn't much to talk about but here it is nonetheless.

I had a similar idea but never got round to the actual mod..
Got this with the intention of mounting the ball where the hat switch on my stick is and the mouse buttons on top of the throttle.



When I play sim I currently stick it to the throttle with blu tack. It works but it's hard to use if you're right handed.
