WOW!
This is getting really aggravating!

Last summer I gave up on this because I never did get this setup to work with Ms-CFS3 (OFF2) and IL2 1946.  Spotty performance when trying to keep the red dots.  Yes. I moved the threshold around, adjusted the focus on the MS LiteCam VX-3000, and turned off the Auto Exposure.

Yesterday I upgraded Freetrack, hoping!
For a while this morning I had the RED dots within the FreeTrack window!  Now they are white?  Don't know?  When it was working it was really jerky.

I suspect that it might be the camera.
Would any of you have a suggestion for an inexpensive USB camera for Med to Low light conditions.  I have read that some of you have mentioned that some of your cameras didn't need the, IR lens I think you all called it, removed from the camera?

Oh! The Lighting system I'm using is a three point cap with the LED that you can't see with the naked eye.  I didn't make the hat.


Thank you one and all! :blink:

I used a Logitech Quickcam Connect seamlessly.

Both with normal (green leds) and IR Leds.

with normal leds, i HAD TO SWITCH off the room lights. Try to test it in dark condition (to split light from leds of the environment). With bad cameras and so much light, it's worst to make led detection work.
