6DOF mod and TRK conflict - Triad773 - 06.10.2008

Hi Gents- I was capturing video from a recorded TRK file where I used 6DOF and it did not seem to be recorded.

Has anyone else had this happen? Anyone able to guess a cause or remedy? I know I had seen videos where clearly the 6DOF is recorded. Not sure what I might be missing.

Any help or ideas appreciated.

Thanks

If I don't remeber badly, with the modded version you can record 6DOF movements, but you only can see the track with the full 6DOF in the modded version.

One person without the modded game, won't see the 6DOF movements watching the track.

Maybe, if you have the modded version but you have switched to the standard 4.08m you lose the 6DOF movements in tracks too...

Don't pay attention to me... I'm getting older and stupid. Surely someone will come with correct answer.

Willy.

Thanks for the reply Willy.

I've got 4.09bm, 6 DOF and it works fine in-game. I use TrackIR 3 with the Vector Clip. I love it in-game and in a recent short video I was looking forward to capturing that in particular.

I had done a search on the forum, and the only thing I found was that there is a patch for the 6DOF mod, which I also had downloaded and used before.

A TrackIR3 issue maybe? Anyone with TrackIR 4 have this issue?

Thanks

The TRK recording doesn't seem to record the tilting or zoom in/out function ,if you are using 6DOF, it only records look up/down & look left/right.
If you have made a TRK using 6DOF and you start playing your recording TRK and it looks strange..... what you can do is the next thing,
- when you start playing your recording TRK , pause at the moment that the TRK starts playing, press ESC and set "manual view control" ON
-continue replay TRK, which is still in pause...center TrackIR....and push again on ESC and turn now "manual view control" OFF.....
-if you now return to your recording you can see the replay as if you were only using a TrackIR .....while the movie is playing you can tilt your head using trackIR if you want that, but zoom in/out will not work even now.

I have made some recording, but they were all in realtime and I think that other people have done the same thing . So TRK recording doesnt seem to support fully 6DOF only trackIR.Cry

This video was a recording in realtime not TRK , using 6DOF

Hmm... I see fredgreen. Thanks for posting that. Yeah I was capturing with FRAPS at 1/4 speed, and I think I would have had pretty chunky results capturing live.

Probably the best solution would be in replacing a 4.5 year old machine (some time in the future). Oh well.

Thanks for your responses.
