Freetrack! How good/bad is it?

Re: Freetrack! How good/bad is it?
I've been tempted to get TrackIR for a long time but the main thing holding me back is that it's more than $100 Which is dosh that I do not have laying around. It'd be hella useful for me due to the fact that I'm an avid gamer (especially ARMA) and like to be a pilot and such. The one thing that sucks about using a gamepad to fly in ARMA is that your freelook is a bit tough, unless you use the numpad keys to look around. So, if you're willing to put in the investment, I say go for it. I've heard good things.
I don't like the term 'Medic'. I prefer 'Fun Enabler' or 'Maximum Fun Ensurance Counselor'. What's more fun than being shot once? Being shot twice.

That was 24£?! Wow. You can get an actual TrackClip from the TrackIR folks for cheaper than that.head wrote:I just ordered a third party clip for freetrack for about 24 GBP from ebay(uk based)

Could you provide a link? I'm interested, particularly if the EU shipping fees are low.Macaco wrote: That was 24£?! Wow. You can get an actual TrackClip from the TrackIR folks for cheaper than that.
Me and him, we're from different ancient tribes. Now we're both almost extinct. Sometimes you gotta stick with the ancient ways, the old school ways. I know you understand me.

Yea since 70 USD for a trackclip from NP
Re: Freetrack! How good/bad is it?
I'm interested too. For quite a few years I had problems finding that kind of stuff for cheap here in Europe. In the US everything is so much cheaper it's not even funny. Well, it is if you're there

I didn't consider shipping costs so his is cheaper. Mine was even cheaper at a whopping 5€ for LEDs, resistors, and wire, but it's understandable that not everyone wants to go through that hassle (and it is a hassle).harakka wrote:Could you provide a link?

Re: Freetrack! How good/bad is it?
It also assumes you are handy and crafty... whenever I do any of that I just hurt myself
Europe seriously needs to get its own manufacturers for these kinds products. Having to pay all the import taxes and customs and shipping fees makes it much harder. Especially for the kinds of salaries some of us get.
Still, Macaco, have you used TrackIR before? How does FreeTrack compare?
