Freetrack is seen by ARMA 3 as TrackIR but there is no movement transition .My protogonist does not react at all.  Please, help me to fix this problem

hey mate.

I am new to headtracking so bear with me. :)

There seems to be some issue with the whole TrackIR gizmo and freetrack.

sooo it looks like Arma 2 and 3 have had some kind of encryption applied so
free track can't send data to the Track IR thingy. (did that make sense?)

there is somekind of workaround. erm, fixTIR or something.

Try using "freetrack" in the controller section of arma. I think you enable it there too. I think...

I am struggling with Arma 2 to get the best heli seup. it's a DOG to get working just they way I want.

Mr Amway.

Same, just logged on to play after a few months and now there is no "Freetrack" i n the controller section, only TrackIR.

I would love to get A3 working with freetrack again, any help appreciated?

I use https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack which works perfectly.

You need to enable TrackIR as a controller in ARMA 3 and start the software before you start the game.

I have found a solution.
You should activate freetrack in your ARMA 3 profile txt file. It is situated i your doc. directory 1)C:\Users\username\Documents\Arma 3\your ingame name.txt (for default profile) and C:\Users\username\Documents\Arma 3Arma 3 - Other Profiles\your ingame name.txt(for other profiles)
There you should find a line: freetrack=0 ,change it to freetrack=1, save it
2) DO NOT START freetrack before the game . First start the game, ALT+TAB it and then start freetrack.Thats all

Did U start ARMA3 before freetrack?
1.Make sure that freetrack still =1 in txt file.
2.Run the game
3.Alt+Tab it and run freetrack
4. Do not forget to activate freetrack in trhe game .Control settings menu. Joysticks menu or  smth like that ...

This not work never friend....
Freetrack in game control is not longer takes a few months, only trackir option is visible.
Your solution is impossible

Boemia interactive not support freetrack in the last update patch  :snif:
