Then you have obviously offended the great Flight Sim gods, and you should find a way to repent fast. :o ;D ;)


Then a sacrifice is in order...[smiley=evil.gif]

So, Thursday is the last day to get a shot in? Been a busy week with being sick and other things going on. But I will have a shot by the end of the day Thursday.

12 planes in total. Not bad for a first time user of recorder ;D

Deadline is now, and forever will be Thursday before you go to bed. ;)

It was Wednesday, but since there is no results to post on Friday, we get an extra day to take the shot, and judges will score and send results on Friday & Saturday, then we take Sunday off, and start all over again on Monday. :)


And for the sake of simplicity, when you post a shot / send in scores, the word -IN will be placed by your name on the first page of the thread. This will help keep track of everyone's status.

I've followed the tutorial to a tee and I can't for the life of me get more than the original plane to show. I'm running out of time here so any advice would be extremely helpful.
Am I suppose to have the "play as traffic" box checked when recording ?
After switching to a different plane it's just a continuation of the original flight and it's like nothing is recorded from the previous plane.

>:( :( :-/ :'(   :-[   Say's it all.

1. Start with your first plane, get it in the position you want with the slew function. Leave the sim in slew for the ENTIRE process.

2.Press 'alt' to bring up the menu bar and select FSRecorder

3. Choose Record, and let record for about 180seconds (this gives you three minutes to mess around with) When you reach that time, press 'alt' again to bring up the menu bar, choose FSRecorder and select 'stop'

Name the file and save.

4. Choose your next plane

5.

Ok, finally. Had trouble doing this one. For some reason, 2 of my aircraft are not what I had chosen. Recorder seemed to make its own decision what aircraft they would be. Then, as I was on my last aircraft... my sim crashed. UGH! But here is my shot for Team X!
