Will ArmA 2 support FreeTrack?!

[Mr Burns]

Merely a suggestion, more like a direct question at Bohemia Interactive for their stance towards NaturalPoints alleged actions against the legal support of Free-Track alternatives.

During an unharmful and very delightful talk on our german hx3 forums about building and using FreeTrack alternatives, one user came up with the fact that Natural Point (original TrackIR Vendor) put the Developers of DCS:BS Shark on a hold for the implementation of a newly built 6DOF API/implementation in their game.

Of course this arose a little uproar .. eventually leading to the creation of following (now closed) thread: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthrea...t=72510&page=6
There´s many truths to be heard from both sides in this, but sadly it got all nasty way to soon .. blabla .. and now we´re here

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So today we´re allowed* to open another thread regarding the fair question for FreeTrack support in ArmA2.
*Placebo says: So tomorrow someone is welcome to start up the discussion again, I would suggest that the suggestions forum be the most appropriate place.


A simple answer from BI, like "Yes, Freetrack will work in ArmA2 as it did in ArmA1",
or "No, Freetrack is not gonna work in ArmA2 (for whatever reasons)" would´ve sufficed to end this thread(s) for good.

But it seems we´re forced to ask for this over and over again.
So, dear users, please state your opinion!

And for the love of Victor Troska, dont let this end up in an open flamefest like the other thread did. imho this topic is way to important to be flushed away by personal griefs, fanboi´ism or other BS.....

Just take it as common sense, verify for yourself, stfu, or provide proper quotes against said facts.
