I received a web cam for Christmas and downloaded FaceTrackNoIR some time ago but am having difficulty on set up.  Some time ago, Daube had a good post on the subject but I have been unable to find it. I have tried all the key words I can think of here and on google but no results.  Any help with the link would be appreciated.
 

Don't ask an aviator if he flys fighters.  If he does he'll tell you, if he doesn't why embarass him.

Thanks, I got it working and your info helps.  The only issue I have now is the way my monitor, joystick and chair is setup, when I sit back in my flying position, the system thinks I am too far back and I end up having aircraft internal structure coming into view.

Configure the "center" (or "reset") function to a key or button that is accessible when you are sitting back. Then sit back in your flying position, and hit this key. It will center the camera again, and consider your actual position as the center position Smiley

Think also about setting the "Pause" (enable/disable) keys, because you WILL WANT to disable FaceTrackNoIR for a small moment, when you'll have to manipulate some buttons in your VC for example.

Thanks again.  Unfortunately, I'll have to wait to try.  The holiday is over and it's back to work for me.
