markx86 / opentrack-launcher Goto Github PK

Hi, just wanted to say thanks for providing this great script. After worrying a lot about not being able to use my TrackIR anymore I finally found your solution and found that the face tracking in opentrack worked well enough for my purposes. :)

I only have one small suggestion for the README: people might not be aware that they remove any additional settings in the command line when they replace it with your launcher script. For instance, I used your script with IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 which is a very old game but graphics can be improved a lot on Nvidia cards by enabling additional OpenGL anti-aliasing like this:

__GL_FSAA_MODE=9 %command%

Now using your script according to the README would obviously disable that flag again, but all it takes is to simply add the flags before your script again. So for the README it might be useful to add a little comment that your script would run just the same like this:

__GL_FSAA_MODE=9 /home//.local/bin/opentrack-launcher %command%

or another example would be some of the other flags like

PROTON_LOG=1 /home//.local/bin/opentrack-launcher %command%
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="mydll=n,b" /home//.local/bin/opentrack-launcher %command%

etc.

Anyway, the real purpose of this was just to say thanks. Looking forward to see how much you can extend this to other potential programs that may be useful.

I have followed the steps in the readme and launched ATS. After launching the game, OpenTrack will not launch. I double checked and the install, script, and version.txt are inside the opentrack-launcher folder in .local/share. I am running ATS as DirectX 11 and using Proton Experimental. I did reinstall python and p7zip packages as well using pacman -S. Is there something in the python script that is may not be initializing? I am trying to set this up on Steam Deck, and readonly is disabled.

As the title already says, the script works great for DCS, and the launcher does start opentrack with Il-2 BoX, but somehow my camera is not working properly when I use it with Il-2BoX.

I'm not sure if it is related to the script or something else. But any help in getting this to work with Il-2 BoX would be appreciated.
