    Hello
    I took the tobii track eye 5 for the simulation because I find that the immersion and ease is improved in 3D view. How to use it in TSW3? Do you have profiles?

    Huh?
    {I took (i.e.: wasted} the time to look this up, but still don't understand what the point of using it would be.}

    There is no support for TSW3!

    Many sim games support head or eye tracking. So, if you look left, the camera pans that way, instead of having to move it with your mouse or controller.
    solon TSW barely supports a controller, has no keyboard/button reconfiguration. That should tell you how much they care about immersion.

    I remember matt demonstrating eye tracking on tsw2. I'm not sure if it made the port over. If memory serves me right he was using the trackIR system with the "beacon" attached to the brim of a baseball cap.
    Just found a train simulator driver video explaining it...

    Definitely not something I would ever buy or use. I'm satisfied with using my mouse and keyboard to adjust the view, thanks.

    Totally it's really boring to always have to move and zoom with the mouse when in the other simulators a simple little movement of the head allows you to do it.

    But it's true that if today it's essential in combat simulations like DCS, it's more the comfort of a slow simulator like TSW.
