Is there a way...

Postby PerrierBaroudeur » Wed May 28, 2008 6:43 pm

Is there a button I can press to bring up the 'Instant Replay' menu while in the sim? I know I'm supposed to click on that option after pressing alt, but my alt menu is on vacation almost entirely above my screen, and I can't click on it or get it to come back (if you know how to fix that, please tell!).

I would really like to use the instant replay function.

I looked through all the commands in the controls menu... I didn't see anything about replays there.

Is there any way I can reposition where the alt bar shows up, so that I can actually see it (I've got my screen resolution set properly as far as I know)?

Instant replay-You can use the shortcut keys for the menus, sub-menus and items. (These are identified by the underlined letter in the menu or item name.)

For instant replay that would be then O (Options) then R

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

Thanks for the alt + O + R tip, it worked!

Weirdly, I no longer need it  :P My computer crashed the other day, and after rebooting it, the alt menu appears where it should in the sim. Bizarre.

Now the problem is that I can't get rid of the alt bar after bringing it up. Pressing alt again just takes the focus away from it; it's still visible.

To get rid of the menu you have to hold the alt key down 'till it disappears.
