will TrackIR work with the Next Level Motion V3?

[Lesthegringo]

Probably a stupid question, but does anyone know?

TrackIr works as normal, but since there are no compensation for the movement your image moves when the nlr v3 moves. Depending on your TrackIr profile the onscreen movement can be quite large. When I got the v3 I briefly tried using TrackIr as well but did not like the combination. I did not not spent much time tweaking the TrackIr profile, perhaps you can get a ok result by doing so. (in VR the nlr v3 works just fine for racing without using the nlr motion compensation.)

Edit.
I just did a quick test with TrackIr again. With a one to one profile in TrackIr and the nlr v3 profiles with reduced travel (compared to when I just got the nlr v3 a year ago) I now use , TrackIr worked quite well.

I'm surprised to read this, since the positional tracking of a Rift is also done by IR LEDs and cameras, like TrackIR. Any idea why this doesn't cause a problem when using VR?

I should have been more precise when I wrote this. The image in VR is ofcourse also influenced by the movement of the seat.(your head is moving in relation to the sensor(s) just the same) But since VR uses a true 1 to 1 ration of your headmovement is it easy to compensate for it while driving.

Compensate as in "it doesn't bother me" like the feeling of motion sickness that fades over time using VR?

Yes you are right.

interesting stuff, I'm trying to set something up that can double for racing and flight sims, and was wondering whether it would be incompatible. The answers above seem to indicate it's worth trying

As ever, my thanks
