Squad doesn’t have TrackIR support yet so I went looking for a program that would at least translate some head movements to keystroke commands and found TrackMapper ...

http://kaf.tri6.net/trackmapper/

It’s an OLD program but it still works like a charm with TrackIR 5!

It only tracks yaw and pitch head movements though (because that's all TrackIR did way back then I guess smile ) so I have left and right mapped to my lean left and lean right keys, down to my go prone key toggle and up to my Squad selection/map screen.

If anyone knows of a newer program that does this, let me know.

Works with Windows 10 as well ... just a nice simple little old program that works with anything! smile

Here's how I'm currently using (and testing) it ... simple four keystroke scenario ...

I was using Trackmapper on my Win7 machine but it doesn't work on my new Win10 machine. I suspect I need to install the proper .NET but not sure which one it needs.

Any ideas?
