I have lost the mail where I had the link to download the app 3 times, is there anyway I can reach out to them to ask for the link again to download? I have already sent a mail to them a week ago never got a reply from them
Great! Thanks for reporting the fix.
I just did more research, and I found out I needed to go to Bluetooth & Devices/Cameras/Camera privacy setting/Let desktop apps access your camera and set it to on, and that made it work. Thank you for your help. I hope this will help others as well.
Yes, I did follow the installation instructions and to the same directory as it's set by the software and i didnt tweak anthing. If FaceTrackNoIR is unable to start the faceAPI exe, there must be some security or 'installation location' issue IMO I dont know what to do ?
It's correct that the faceAPI tracker starts a separate EXE, which actually does the tracking. And that the tracker only appears after installing the plugin pack. You should not run the faceapi_exe manually. Did you simply follow the installation manual: https://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/manual/installation.htm and install to the default location(s). Or did you tweak anything. If FaceTrackNoIR is unable to start the faceAPI exe, there must be some security or 'installation location' issue IM...
its all there after i installed the V204a update. but the this error is still there: I just did some investigation and found out that the old PC is running the FTNoIR_FaceAPI_EXE.exe and it shows in the task manager, but on the new PC it is not running. When I manually run it, I get this error. PS. I recall that FaceAPI error codes are: Common ones: -1 = general error, -2 = invalid handle, -3 = invalid argument, -4 = operation not supported, -5 = timeout, -6 = not initialized, -7 = already initialized,...

Hello, For the faceAPI tracker to work, it MUST be in the list. If it does not show up there, the DLL apparently was not found in the folder. Which FTNoIR_Tracker_<>.dll files do you find in the folder where FaceTrackNoIR.exe is found?

The fact that the webcam utility shows an error is (of course) NOT good. Apparently there is some installation-issue. The utility uses the same DLLs as the tracker, so if it does not work, the tracker will not. Ijust deleted everything and installed the one I downloaded 2 days ago, and this is the screenshot of it and what I have in it. Did you use the same webcam on W10? Yes, the camera works with the old PC running Windows 10 after upgrading it to Windows 11 as well, but not on the new PC. *Error...

Google AI tels me this: *Error 80070005 ("Access Denied") in video capture, such as in Teams, Zoom, or camera apps, usually means the app lacks permission to access the camera or the device is in use by another program. Fix this by enabling camera privacy settings, updating drivers, or running the app as an administrator. * Can you try running FaceTrackNoIR "As Administrator" or change the webcam permissions?
Hello again! I'm sorry to hear that you experience problems running FaceTrackNoIR on W11. For starters: it should work fine, W11 is not the problem. Many users have FaceTrackNoIR running on W11 (including me ;) The fact that the webcam utility shows an error is (of course) NOT good. Apparently there is some installation-issue. The utility uses the same DLLs as the tracker, so if it does not work, the tracker will not. Did you use the same webcam on W10?

Hello, from Italy. I’m trying to use FaceTrackNoIR on a legacy Windows XP system for vintage flight simulators (e.g., FS2004, IL2...). The current installer reports that it is not compatible with XP and suggests using an older version. Would it be possible to get access to a legacy build (for example 1.x or earlier 2.0) that works on Windows XP? Thanks a lot for your fantastic work and for any help!
Hello Jeff, Thanks for your feedback. The keyboard shortcuts are implemented using DirectX and it may be possible that 'the game' is overriding them. So indeed: sometimes one must fiddle to find a working option... I hope the joystick buttons are OK for you?
The only way I could get the shortcuts to work was when I assigned them to the joystick. Couldn't get the keyboard to work.
Hi @v4friend. I tried to redownload the FaceTrackNoIR v201 installer but when I click the E-junkie link from my order email, I now get the error message: Download time has expired. Please contact the merchant at facetracknoir.com_at_gmail.com I emailed but I have had no reply. Please can you advise how to download the installer?
New FacetrackNoIR User. Headtracking's working fine. But I can't get the shortcuts to work. I'm using the default "HOME" key for Center "PGDWN" key for Game Zero, and default "END" key for Start/Stop. These do nothing in FSX:SE. What am I doing wrong?
Okay. I see "PointTracker 1.1" under "Tracker Source". I was looking for "IR Point Tracker". Sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm using the FSX SimConnect protocol. And started FTNoIR. It picked up the IR points but it is running VERY slowly and jerky. I guess I'm at the next step and need to figure out what settings to adjust. Thanks for the help. Jeff
Hello Jeff, That's strange: something must have gone wrong during the procedure. I have just tried it too (on a 'clean' PC) using SetupFaceTrackNoIRv204aPluginPack.exe. I do see PointTracker 1.1 after the procedure... Did you install to the same folder?

I just downloaded and installed FaceTrackNoIR, followed by the FaceTrackNoIR PluginPack. During the installation of the PluginPack, the IR PointTracker (like FreeTrack) was selected. When the installation completed, I opened FaceTrackNoIR. But no IR PointTracker is available to select under Tracker Source. I have a Grass Monkey Odyssey IR point device that I want to use for the head tracking. How do I fix this in FaceTrackNoIR? Jeff

The Mobius and Maxwell are quite different devices. Maxwell has its own dedicated headtracking tab in the AudezeHQ program, but the Mobius only has Link Mode. Similarly, the Orbit S shares sensor data in the same way as the Mobius, through Link Mode, but there's no way to manually enter the IP address and port like on the Maxwell. Therefore, a separate review for the Mobius is necessary, and the Maxwell code needs to be ported to the Mobius/Orbit S. Unfortunately, I can't help because I have no programming...
Thank you. Yes you're right freetrack protocol worked. Thanks a lot
Hello JF, DCS is one of the first games which supported headtracking: it can work fine (I remember testing it myself many years ago). DCS is 'TrackIR-compatible', so you should select the FreeTrack protocol in FaceTrackNoIR. I don't recall: maybe it is necessary to 'enable headtracking' in the game-settings?

I just installed facetracknoir to use in DCS with my tobii 5 as a source. It seems to work (the coordinates and image move with my face after clicking start) but when I launch DCS, there is no movement at all. Please help!
I have tried to reply to you on Reddit but can't seem to post this there for some reason! Great work on the Maxwell! I am trying to get this working with Mobius. Mobius has "Link Mode" which seems to output with a different port each time it starts. I have rewritten the code to automatically capture the local IP for client_ip and the Port that AudezeHQ.exe is using for server_port. Nothing is being detected in FaceTrackNoIR. You will see in the commented out section #client_ip = "127.0.0.1" that...
Hello Dylon, I'm glad it checks out on the other PC ;) It is a bit frustrating that it won't work on your own PC and that it seems 'unfixable'. Sometimes the hard way is the only way... Thanks for the feedback and good luck with the reinstall.
Hey Wim, Unsurprisingly it works perfectly on my wife's laptop, and even doing a "System Corruption Scan" using CTT (Chris Tech Tool) to run multiple different checkers, I still can't get it working on my desktop, meaning my only recourse would indeed be a OS reinstall. I appreciate the guidance on the packs!
Hello Dylan, You should also install the Pluginpack, but you can un-check most of the trackers and protocols. After that installing the Tobii plugin should suffice...
Thanks for this extra info, Wim! I am going to try it on my wife's laptop who has a built-in webcam as well as Tobii (experience only?) built-in as well just to see if it'll at least launch. One last question though, I really only need Tobii5, so would I use JUST the Tobii5 plugin after installing Core, or both Tobii5 AND v204a Plugin pack? Thanks again
You can 'contact the vendor' if you are patient and you could just re-purchase FaceTrackNoIR if you are in a hurry. The price is still very low (so practically anyone with a PC can afford FaceTrackNoIR)...
I bought the program 2-3 years back for American Truck Simulator, but since then my hard drive had corrupted. Therefore I lost my ability to run the program and reinstall. I searched my email for the download, but I cannot find it. Do I have to pay again, or can I get help to get the program back on my new PC?
Hello Dylan, It's been a while since I faced the "7b" issue, so I think you are better informed than I am... I do recall that the problem is VC-redist related and the most common solution is removing and then re-installing them (by installing FaceTrackNoIR). But you have already tried that. In rare cases, the problem isn't solved and then the trouble is bigger. I have recommended re-installing Windows in the past, but I realise that doing that is "too much" for just FaceTrackNoIR. You could try FaceTrackNoIR...

I’ve seen your work on adding new games like KartKraft and it’s great to see FaceTrackNoIR stay versatile. If you’d like to try testing without worrying about game support for a bit of a break, check out this online casino: https://aquawinaustralia.com — it’s completely web-based and might be a fun contrast. Back to tracking—if KartKraft registers as “Unknown game (ID=…)” when you launch both apps, that actually means it’s probably working fine via FreeTrack even without CSV entry.
Thanks!
Thanks for the update! Have fun.
Hi Wim Vriend update, got it working. installing simconnect legacy files did the trick and at present everything is working as it should hanks heaps. cheers Rhys
Thanks Wim Vriend I installed version160 on another pc running windows 10 and fsx se works with facetractnoir. I wonder if version V160 is not compatible with win11 which is the pc it is not working on Cheers Rhys
Hello Rhys, Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately I do not have the SE version, so I cannot try it. Maybe other users have tried it and posted about FSXSE in forums or YouTube?
Hi Vim Vriend Fsx se is the steam addition of FSX facetracknoir version 160 worked great in the boxed version. In Fsx se, facetracknoir launches with top left window showing me and the yellow lines around my face and the top square moves with my head movement but in the sim it doesn't do anything. I am running windows 11 cheers Rhys

Affirmative! FaceTrackNoIR (the latest) works fine with MSFS2020. I'm not sure: what version is FSXSE?
Hi just wanting to know if the latest version works with msfs2020 and fsxse I have versions 160 but get an error saying Protocol not (installed) correctly. I would like to be able to use facetracknoir woth both sim versions cheers Rhys
Hello Brindley, I'm a bit rusty when it comes to DCS. I remember that it supports the TrackIR protocol (Freetrack 2.0 in FaceTrackNoIR). That should work fine. It's normal that you do not see video for Tobii: it only relays coordinates, not video... Maybe you can post a screenshot?
Hey - Just bought the app for tobii 5. The app shows it is connected and I see the target move. No picture though in top left. When I go into DCS and enter the cockpit, it does not track properly. It looks like it is useing the same movemnent you get from using the keyboard, like snap moveing. But it moves only every few seconds. then it moves after a few seconds. thoughts?
same here comes with a fatal error that's to do with the runtime I think
Hello, Unfortunately that is not something we can change: I think Paypal does that?

Hi, I purchased this about 2-3 years ago and did a computer transfer. However it seems I have lost my EXE. File but all the other files are here. I was wondering if I could get the EXE. File back?
That's unfortunate: facePoseApp has indeed been removed from the App store some time ago. The Visage tracker became too expensive for us to maintain it. Sorry for you inconvenience!
Hello! I've just tried to reinstall FacePoseApp to my iPhone, which offloaded it for storage reasons, but it appears I can't access it online anywhere. I've paid for the app, so it's a little frustrating! Is there anywhere we can get access to it? I was using it for work so it'd be useful to have back. Thanks for your help!
Hello I would also like to know if the custom gaze data dll is or could be made available. Not sure if there are any planned updates to the plugins but it would be great to be able to configure what data is sent via UDP so it doesn't break existing apps that might be checking the packet length. Thanks
Hello all, I am a new user. I have a tobii 5 that works for xplane well. I was having trouble with it in DCS so I am trying this software. I have everything installed V2.0.1 and tobii plugin. I run as admin. When I run.. the tobii will not show as connected in the plugin settings. I have reinstalled and restarted several times. What am I missing. I have also restarted the tobii services and disabled the tracker in the tobii game hub. Help please
Hi, I just set up facetracknoir, and I wanted to map the Center View function to a button of a game controller. However, the press of the button is not recognized, neither while tracking in Windows, nor ingame (DCS). Mapping the Center View function to keyboard (default "Home" button) or mouse works flawlessly. What can I do to get the Center View function working from the game controller? I have multiple game controllers connected ( Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS, Fanatec Wheelbase, XBox controller,...
I can get the software to recognize gaze trace but no other axis. My other issue is that the software doesn't seem to output anything. I selected vJoy and set the joystick x and y to gazepoint, but the monitor in the top left seems to indicate nothing is being output, and the vjoy monitor confirms this.
Hello i am trying to download again the facetracknoir and the link is expired with a mesege to contact support. so i cant download anymore pls help.
Hello Wim, It is very strange but it is consistent. I have found it's more a case of the output signal that's interrupting it, as simply turning my monitor off will also solve the issue. But the issue even reaches the FaceAPI as it forces itself to close just as its about to do the yellow outline of my face. So my operating procedure is: turn external monitor off, launch the program, start face tracking, turn monitor on. And if I lose tracking for an extended period of time I have to turn my monitor...

Installed the core setup .exe then the plugin setup, as instructed, and when I double click on the desktop icon.....nothing. Even if I run as admin. Uninstalled and reinstalled a few times, even rebooted my comp to no avail. I have noticed the desktop icon says v200, when the download file states v201_core. Not sure if that's got anything to do with it.

Hello Gabriel, Is it possible to rotate the video from the android by 90 degrees? I do not think facetracking will work until your face is straight up?
Sorry for seeing your reply late because I had given up hope. I will write to you on Reddit and contact you. Thanks for your efforts.
I can't use the program because it don't find my camera and the app don't work. Please help me asap!!!
Apparently your Visual Studio distributions got scrambled, by doing so many different things. Why did you un-install all these programs to begin with? The FaceTrackNoIR installer should install the VC++ redist it requires. You could try this: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/msvcp120dll-was-not-found/aa1d074b-6aff-4c96-bc48-12be59ec8408
I have installed the core and plugin packs. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Tobii 5, Win 11, 9800x3d, 4090. I get this error when I try to start: The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCP120.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.
Great! Thanks for your feedback and I'm glad it works now. Have fun!
Solved thank you
It's working with me now It was my mistake I did not download the plugins and FaceAPI Thank you
Yes, the video is shown from the Integrated Camera. even if I enable the Tobii Experience there a new device appears and it displays a video if I select it from the "Devices" menu too

I just spent a half day working on this same idea for the Maxwell headset and was able to succesfully get head tracking to work in games. I previously owned a Mobius, but it no longer functions - I'd be happy to compare notes, though, and see if there is any commonality. The Maxwell sends OSC messages as UDP packets (by default to 127.0.0.1:8000) in four or five different flavors at roughly 60 Hz; the one I have explored is yaw-pitch-roll amd the rest are variously-flavored quaternions. The OSC header...
