    Hi,
    I am using Win10
    I have downloaded all software needed.
    I have tried to get the tracker to work but just got a static UDP picture below the ICON pic of the man with glasses. By Changing tracker source and game protocol I got a "fluttering UDP screen". Also I got a "green tracking status" line.
    Also I have gotten "open tracker" to work with DCS using neuralnet tracker (input) and UDP over network (output) and local ip addr. I get a moving image of myself using the webcam utility.

      Did you follow the installation instructions: https://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/manual/installation.htm ?

      After installing the PluginPack, you can select (for instance) the faceAPI tracker.

    Hi,
    I re-installed the SetupFaceTrackNoIR_v204a_PluginPack then I changed the tracker source and game protocol did a start. I now get a picture that is with a grey background with my body image (moving) and a blue background with m head image (moving) and a small flashing yellow circles with crosses in the center and (moving), my whole body image is moving according like moving my arm.
    I am using PoinTracker 1.1 source and FaceTrackerNoIR game protocol.

    The point-tracker tracker source is used with an Ir-led model.If you don't have such a thing you can try face-api as tracker source.The most used game protocol is Freetrack.

    Hello Joe,

    Ok, so you have re-installed the software. Which game do you want to use FaceTrackNoIR with?
    And is it correct that you want to use the face-tracker, to track you track your head?

     
  • JOSEPH A PURPURA

    DCS for a start.

      And you intend to use your webcam, for facetracking? Then you should select the faceAPI tracker and the FreeTrack protocol.

    I have tried that over and over again.
    I t does nothing but give me a static UDP screen.

    Which options do you have in the tracker combobox? If you do not see the faceAPI tracker, like on this page: https://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/manual/manual_trackers.htm

    then the installation procedure was not completed successfully.

    Did you install the PluginPack to the same location as the core program?

     
  • JOSEPH A PURPURA

    I have done that!
    I confirm the above msg.

    Which options do you see, when you click the Tracker combobox? Can you post a screenshot?

    Tracker combobox? where is it?

     
  • JOSEPH A PURPURA

    tracker source = faceAPI V3.2.6

    OK. If the tracker is faceAPI and you press start, then you should see the video-widget showing your face. Is that OK?

    If that works and the digits are changing, you are half way there...

     
  • JOSEPH A PURPURA

    As I have repeatedly stated, when I chose tracker source = faceAPI V3.2.6, I get NOTHING.

    Can you post a screenshot of FaceTrackNoIR, after you press START? It may help, if you start FaceTrackNoIR 'As administrator'.

    Does the webcam utility of FaceTrackNoIR show the video stream properly?
