Class : Apprenti Posts : 4 Registered on : 23/12/2010 Off line	I too am having the same problem. The video output from the software shows that my room is completely black and my 3 point cap model show up without a problem, but the skull doesn't move at all. Any help? I've been reading the documentation on the website, but it doesn't address the issue of the skill isn't moving or what it is that one should do. I can see that the app goes from 20 fps to 19 fps. I am completely lost at this point. The documentation is very detailed as to what most functions do but I get the feeling that the assumption is that everything should just work once you turn everything on. Can I get some help please!!?! I am using the 3 point cap model I'm on windows vista. I downloaded v2.2 of freetrack. I have a Microsoft Lifecam VX-1000. Edited by number3 on 19/01/2011 at 05h21.

Go into the Model tab on the top-right, and select your setup. For me, that was the 3 point clip setup. Make sure to calibrate your rig by putting in the right model dimensions and position! I hope that helps.

Class : Apprenti Posts : 2 Registered on : 03/05/2012 Off line	Yep I had this issue too. To solve: increase the maximum diameter and decrease the minimum diameter in the program of the LEDs. This tells the the program that your dots are within a different range than what it's looking for.

Keep increasing the diameter until all LEDs have a crosshair on them. The reason for having these limits is so the program doesn't pick up other light sources (e.g. a desk light will have a huge diameter, so by setting a maximum diameter it won't pick that one up).

I was helping a friend set up his free track and he had a problem because he wanted to us the pause function. I tried with sucess to emulate his problem and as soon as I use the pause function my free track quit working as well. Anyone heard of this bug? Metabo TheFabFour
