opentrack project home is located at <http://github.com/opentrack/opentrack>.

For the latest downloads visit <https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/releases> Download an .exe installer or a .7z archive. Currently installers and portable versions for Windows are available for each release. It supports USB stick truly "portable" installations

Please first refer to <https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki> for new user guide, frequent answers, specific tracker/filter documentation. See also the gameplay video with opentrack set up.

Railway planning software <http://opentrack.ch> had the name opentrack first. Apologies for the long-standing naming conflict.

opentrack is an application dedicated to tracking user's head movements and relaying the information to games and flight simulation software.

opentrack allows for output shaping, filtering, and operating with many input and output devices and protocols; the codebase runs Microsoft Windows, Apple OSX (currently unmaintained), and GNU/Linux.

Don't be afraid to submit an issue/feature request if you have any problems! We're a friendly bunch.

Almost all code is licensed under the ISC license. There are very few proprietary dependencies. There is no copyleft code. See individual files for licensing and authorship information.

See WARRANTY.txt for applying warranty terms (that is, disclaiming possible pre-existing warranty) that are in force unless the software author specifies their own warranty terms. In short, we disclaim all possible warranty and aren't responsible for any possible damage or losses.

The code is held to a high-quality standard and written with utmost care; consider this a promise without legal value. Despite doing the best we can not to injure users' equipment, software developers don't want to be dragged to courts for imagined or real issues. Disclaiming warranty is a standard practice in the field, even for expensive software like operating systems.

On Windows, use either mingw-w64 or MS Visual Studio 2015 Update 3/newer. On other platforms use GNU or LLVM. Refer to Visual C++ 2015 build instructions.
