    In some games it is used to review the gamepad sticks, I really want this function as an alternative to the mouse. For example, in racing games for a review on the sides, you can use the xbox 360 gamepad to turn the head as well as tracking in the vorpx driver. The function is uniquely necessary and it makes sense to add it at least optionally. If I do not understand clearly, I can write a video where I can clearly demonstrate why it is needed in the vorpx driver

    If I understand your request correctly, that is already possible.

    1. Go to the Input page of the vorpX ingame menu
    2. Make sure that “Override X-Box Gamepad” is set to “Off”
    3. Set “Head Tracking As Gamepad” to “On”

    After doing so a few additional settings appear in the menu. How these have to be set depends on the game.

    Caveat: games heavily filter and process gamepad input, so this method is rather laggy and far from ideal, only use it as a last resort. If your game happens to support TrackIR (many racing/flight sims do), check OpenTrack instead, which can translate head tracking to TrackIR input.
