YSFE 2012 Kinect Camera Adjustment | Forums

I can fix it position manually to see feet and head at the same time. The most irritating thing is that I am already logged in xBox live but YS always says that new user detected and I have to select to login again.

This happens for me from time to time as well. YSFE 2012 doesn't recognize me (for some reason), and I'm forced to wave my hand over my gamertag on the screen so it will load my profile in-game. I agree...very frustrating.

I had the same issue as reported by NitrousKirill. It seems to me that the positioning mechanism of the kinect camera is not very precise sometimes. I've mounted the camera on top of my TV. In case of this issue i change the tilt of the monitor a little bit and do recalibration again. That helps ... sometimes )

I appreciate all the feedback. This helps back my claim that I submitted to Ubi support last week. I really hope they fix this. Quite annoying to have to manually position each time I want to exercise.

I've not posted in a while...but i wanted to bring this topic back up again because Ubi has done absolutely NOTHING to fix the issue. I still have to manually adjust the camera each time I start up YSFE 2012. This was NEVER an issue in the first YSFE game. I'm quite disappointed that Ubi doesn't want to recognize that this is an issue...along with some of the other bugs that should have been corrected from YSFE to YSFE 2012. Sad really...for a great workout software.

I have the same problem. Every time I start the game it makes me sign in manually. Sometimes I get the green check mark while other times I get the red X, but in both cases it wont sign me in. I'm used to it but it is a shame that I had to settle for an annoyance.

I have had that but not in a while. I've just realized I've been wearing black a lot though which apparently Kinect doesn't like so will see if that makes any difference. I don't tend to get any issues until I'm down on the ground doing floor exercises and then it has problems registering some of them.

[PriusGuy2004]

It's definitely an issue. I don't understand it because in the first YSFE game, the camera never adjusted like this at the beginning of the game. With YSFE 2012, it adjusts all the time. I wonder if this is one of the reasons that Kinect PlayFit doesn't like to carry over all calories burned in YSFE 2012? My guess is yes.

That PlayFit thing is disappointing.

For instance, I tend to average about 270-350 calories a session burned which YSFE:12 mostly records (not had an issue with it in a few months now).

But when I go to PlayFit afterwards, I'm lucky if it counts 1/2 that - often it is nearer 1/4.

Yet when I played "Star Wars" yesterday for about 45 minutes, including standing around waiting for the cut-scenes etc. it credited me with MORE than I got from my entire hour's (pretty intensive) abs and arms workout the day before in YSFE:12.

Definitely some disconnect there between Microsoft and Ubisoft as the Star Wars game seemed to deal with it just fine.
