I used it for quite a while.
Unfortunately, there are no "good" settings. It will wastly depend on:
- the webcam you're using
- the amount of light in your room and the distance between the webcam and your face
- your face... yes, your face shape/color/beard etc... will greatly impact the face recognition efficiency.

The quality of the picture you get with the webcam will impact the precision of the face recognition, leading to less or more instability of the position. Depending on that, you'll have to increase or decrease the "smoothing" slider. Of course, increasing this setting leads to more stable position, but also more latency. It's up to you to find the balance that best suits your needs.

If you want to see the full potential of FaceTrackNoIR then make yourself an LED clip and use it with the PointTracker tracker source. When properly set up it's as good as TrackIR for a fraction of the price.
