You forgot the I don't care option - which applies to all of the current TIR users.

I know a lot of TIR users that will like to have Freetrack interface integrated in IL-2:CoD. Some of them are in my squadron. In my squadron we have TIR users, Freetrack users and even people that hate HT devices and have headaches when using it. But all like to have options.

If you don't care, just don't vote. The option is available.

I didn't post to piss you off.
The question is: what is your goal with the poll.
I would think it's to sense a trend or the needs of customers, for that your two options are not enough.
Unless, of course you just want to proof your pov.

I think I'll vote against it, although I really love my FT setup.

My point is simple: see how many FT users will like to see it into IL-2:CoD, and how much people don't want, hate, whatever feeling they have against FT and have concerns about it make into IL-2:CoD.

If you are not mature enough to undestand that, you are one of the 3 people that vote against. Congrats! It's an opinion too!

I would like to know how many of those who voted against freetrack support are TrackIR users.

I´m TIR user and I do care!
TIR is only one kind of a headtracker. If there is a cheaper but also working solution it makes sense to provide an access to it.

The immersion is much hígher while playing with a headtracking device. With more player gaining benefit from it the more stable the community will be.

Plus your point just sounds a little selfish.

I don't see that FT, or any other headtracking, shouldn't be included in principle... the sticking point is the files FT and some other headtracking needs to use.

I don't believe Swiss made a selfish point there, W32Blaster. Swiss, and others, did however point out the shortcomings in the way the poll was set up, which perhaps may be being read out of context. In any case, the poll forces a for or against, which doesn't really reflect what the poll should be all about.

Of course headtracking offers much higher immersion levels, there's no doubt about that though the community seems to be unstable/ split basically over what appears by some, on what they feel should be the right to hack software, and to others the right to have software protected.

W-R, let's not regurgitate the other thread here. You know, the one where we reached a consensus that if more games offer native support for alternative head trackers in the form of a generic 6-axis interface, then the alternative trackers won't need to use "hacked" naturalpoint dll files.

This poll might be wrongly worded in that it only mentions freetrack, but please let's all use it as an indication for the community's wish to include support for alternative head tracking in general, instead of as a stepping stone to sidetrack the discussion into what constitutes hacking.

This poll should be about extra options, it shouldn't be about "freetrack rules/sucks" or "are you a hacker?yes/no".
