S! All
Here ya go, this works GREAT! I have some pics of needed supplies. 3/4 inch wooden balls ( I think 1/2 or 1/4 would work too I just haven't located any yet, and this was such an improvement I had to let it out before I did any more work).99 cents at hobby store and some reflective tape. You can get it from TrackIR or a Mechanics tool dealer and who knows where else. Mine is from my SnapOn tools infrared digital tach. And some sort of glue I used my Wife's Hot glue gun. Also an old pair of glasses mine are some cheap fishing glasses that had scratched lenses, I popped them out. I only used about 5 inches of tape, also sand on side of ball flat for the glue to adhere too. Now that it's out I'm sure others will be able to improve on it and tweak it some I'm sure. Either by ball size for more precision or mounting like on hats, or using clips,Or piercings, Nose,eyebrow,Hey the tongue, there ya go never turn your head fly with mouth open and wag your tongue :mock:
Here are pics.
This is what tape was for before Track Ir
After freeing up my Hat button for looking I reallocated it to Zoom Views.
For Gunsight Zoom View
Wide view Zoomed out
Shift F1 View
Normal Gunsight view
It was only natural to leave some sort of View stuff there, after so many years of Thumb looking anyways. :wink2:
And here is a couple of tracks of it being used.When viewing make sure you have manual view turned off so you see what I see.(that's the switch down position) Oh made with earlier TIR drivers on a Win 2000 machine, AMD 1400 512 pc133 ram LB was working then.
Here are some of it being use in video format at Youtube.
Look at this page for a cool video of it in action in Pacific Fighters.

This is way easier than the Infra red LED Mod
This has since been replaced by a LED one from Natural point that is USB powered.
Besides I haven't seen any instructions on it anyways. Guys post stuff but seldom give the details, I'm from Missouri the SHOW ME STATE. :mh:
My mod works in the daylight and Dark too. I recorded track at 2pm with the sun shinning into the room. When you do it you will find that the TracIR stock setup on Deadzone is all you need, I have enough room to back away from sensor 5 feet and it never skips a beat.I was 2 1/2 foot from it during the track.
Below is a jpeg of my head travel. While in the pit. I used a short pencil in my mouth let it stick out about 1 inch. Then let it mark on note pad. then I retraced it with a felt tip for scanning.
