Anyone using Track IR in AH2?  If you do how hard is it to get the profile set?

I haven't hooked it back up again but I was using it before with a little side program for Enhanced mode.  I think it's position from me or lighting is affecting how it reacts.  But it was working fine for the most part.  I needed to tweak it a bit.

TrackIR (http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/index.html)

TrackIR uses an infra-red(IR) camera to track your head movements.

You reflect IR light back to the TrackIR, which sends instructions to your computer to move your game view or mouse cursor.

A search in these forums would give you info about it... :)

Won't use it unless we get enhanced support.

I know it was a pain in the buttocks to set up for IL-2 just was wondering if it was worth the time to do for AH2.

For me TrackIR has been a breeze to setup and use...

I'm sure we will get enhanced support.

It was a snap for me to set up in IL-2, as well.
If you had trouble setting it up in IL2, I'm guessing you'll probably have trouble in AH2.  

I use it in AH I, but it's a bit 'twitchy without proper support.

Check this (http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=103198) thread.

There's also the option of using Trackmapper, look here (http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=116221).

I am shameless enough to hope for enhanced mode support AND a way of combining that with the saved head position feature.
