It seemed that something sorely missing here was a quick-start guide that told you what software you need, what parts you need, and how to put them together. After figuring out FreeTrack this week, I put together my own.
I'm hoping that it will be enough to answer the most common starting questions. It assumes the reader will be using a Wiimote as their camera, and outlines a complete parts list, computer set up, making a point model, and configuring FreeTrack. It's a bit text heavy, but that's how instructions are.
Oh, and here's some pictures of the Wiimote holder and point models I made.
