Head Tracking with Cliffs of Dover

Wolf_Rider, just out of curiosity, why do you care so much?

My interest in this topic is clear enough, I don't want to spend £150 on a TIR 5 when my FT set-up cost £20 and about an hour of my time (and I'm a long way from my time being worth £130/h), but I really don't see your interest.

And no, I'm not implying that you must work for NP.

Do you use the TIR interfacing?

That makes for a change :s

Well, okay, but that didn't answer my question

Il2 (the only game I use FT in) lacks native support for FT, so yes.

LOL!

Oleg, this guy said that IL2 1946 is a hacked game!

I use FT in IL2 1946 too. I don't alter anything in IL2 1946, just run FT and tick the "evil hacked" interface to emulate the TIR interface and it's work.

Now we are running a "hacked game"?

W-R, you are a really sick person...

Fair enough.

Does it hurt anybody? I paid for my copy of Il2 1946, infact I have boxed versions of most of the Il2 series sitting on my shelf. Nor would I have brought TIR even if there was no way to get 6DOF in Il2 with FT, I would have ended up using FT with mouselook and 2DOF.

So, my conscience is clear on this matter.

that just goes back to the; you don't own the software, you have a license to run the software. Does it hurt anyone? well, yes it does... using FT with NP software/ interface is theft. same as stealing from next door because it has an item your house doesn't.

we'd only have to trust and take you at word on that one...

you'd be surprised of the amount of people, who, have a clear conscience on what they've done

I don't bought anything from NP.

I run IL-2 1946 - that I bought - and Freetrack - free.

Freetrack don't use NP software to do the HT. Freetrack uses the data format of TIR to stream data to IL-2 1946.

You, W-R, as NP, have SEVERE problems to keep this "hack" talking! Is really fun to see!

Yes, I understand the court of law version of software use, but this isn't a court of law, so take my statement at face value or dismiss it as you wish, its my opinion, nothing else.

Why would I lie? Again, this isn't a court of law.

Sure, and as an atheist I don't even believe in a conscience in biblical terms(a fixed sense of right and wrong "built into" every person), but I know if I hurt someone who doesn't deserve it or steal etc I will feel bad about it (and yes, I will use the court of law interpretations of this as a rough guide in this case).

However, given all that I don't feel bad about using software I paid for as I wish for my personal use (and I don't believe that FT using the open version of the NP interface falls outside that).
