I’ve had the Tobii Eye Tracker for exactly a week and it has been a nightmare.

I understand from the research I’ve done that it won’t be as good as some other options so I managed my expectations accordingly.

That being said I’ve had it for a week and it’s been unplayable. What gets me the most is the inconsistency. I’ll get it where it’s barely tolerable cut the pc off for the day and the next day is worse than it was the previous day.

Like I said I’ve been playing for a week for four or five hours a day and I have spent more time with the Tobii than playing the game.

The biggest problem is the fidgety/shaky view when I zoom in on part of the cockpit. With the eye tracker off and my head perfectly still it is so shaky it’s unserviceable.

Then today it reset facing the bottom of the seat and would not reset to the to the hud no matter what I did. I tried restring the Tobii software, recalibrating, and restarting both the game and the Tobii software.

Also another problem that I’ve had that I have never been able to solve is that the vertical axis allows me to look up 90 degrees but not look down at all. Even with the vertical axis set on the max.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Id like to know
