Head Tracking with Cliffs of Dover

[norulz]

So... why don't developers publish that ID number for their game?

Anyway... I didn't got the idea completely... I guess I need a drawing or something.

You have:

Game
Interface
Registry
HT Software

Why is the dll in the game folder? Why is it still looking for dll location in registries? Why then people replace that NP dll with own dll's that just have the same name?

Isn't the same thing with Joystick interfaces? Why is that open and anyone can build a joystick that is universally compatible?

Joystick interfaces are included I think in DirectImput from DirectX... right? Why... no DirectImput for 6DoF headtracking?

they're all very good questions..


why can't the alternatives developer's create their game lists/ ID's etc?

anyone can build a joystick, yes, anyone can also hook up a camera through the PPJoy ap., apparently

has anyone actually approached Microsoft about it?
