PC Case gear seems to be the best that I can find atm, the bundle shipped to me with insurance is $310.10 which seems reasonable.

Be keen to know how hard it is to setup etc (o:

 

What games are you looking to use it for?

There comes a time in every musician's life when they must decide what instrument they should master. Few. If any are ever worthy enough to master. The cowbell.

What about importing from the states?

 

You could use a site like priceusa.com (who handle the shipping for you for a small fee) and get it in cheap.

 

I see $US 150 at Amazon.

You've already ruined these forums for me, I have no desire to read your rhetoric or the pathetic arguments you get yourself in to, or the personal vendetta you have against me, so please, do not talk to me. Ever. About anything.

Arma2. Period.

mmmm . . . been looking at that game (well vids on youtube anyways) and been wondering how you could do the 'head turn' thing without one, mainly for flying etc that is.

 

pretty sure i'll need a better rig if i want the eye candy tho /o:

 

so have been thinking, if i get a new rig, i'll be putting one of those in as well to help with games etc.

@ McDeth: You can hold down a "free look" key which removes your control from the cursor/crosshair and allows you to control your head as instead. The trackIR allows you to do both simulaneously... ie You can tilt your head left and look parrallel along the road while you run and aim your gun across it. I recently purchased a beast of a rig that is almost complete in order to play arma with all the eye candy :)

 

@SOP: Thanks, but i'd rather get it within aAustralia to reduce the chance of it getting lost/damaged during postage.

I got one, it is great. I did not realise it was usable with a FPS. Will have to try out. My advice is use this cap mounted thing:

Not this:

The later is too heavy and with a stupid cable.

So the stock cap "trackclip" is better than the upgradable "trackclip pro"?

 

That is strange...

Sometimes newer is not better:

 

Just think Police Academy 2.

Both the v4 and v5 use the same software.

 

Psyrus is correct about "more sensitivity/customizability" though.

I have / had both IR 4 and 5.

 

5 is a bit more sensative. They both use the same software, its easy to setup and use. And OMG totally awesome for AMRA2 , Fligthsims and really cool for racing car sims.

 

Get one you wont be sorry.
