I really tried guys,to no avail. Everytime I tried a third plane something would mess up,like screen going white then having no planes. I really gotta hand it to all who accomplished this.
I have a shot to at least show I tried. :(  :-[  :'(

No problem Truck! When duty calls, you gotta answer. ;)


Thanks, and great job to all who stepped up to this challenging theme. 8-)

You'll be happy to know, that there won't be any more with FSR  ;), unless you want to use it. :D.

It's in the judges hands now, good luck to all! :)

[quote]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.

Team X

As confusing as it was, I did it! Thanks Shane for the short but VERY useful tutorial ;)



A USMC F-18 tries to steal the show over South Beach.... of course ;D

Nothing special, but I spent a good amount of time trying to learn this thing and get this shot

Good luck to both teams

Good shot Sub, especially for a noob. I couldn't get past the 2nd plane for some reason but I'll figure it out.

I for one Shane, have no problem incorporating this into one of the next themes. It'll help me to learn more of it.
It's actually pretty cool. 8-)

I don't think it should be incorporated again because it's a hassle for people to learn it and many of us (including me) don't have time to do so. As a matter of fact jime, that shot was accidental. I was having problems getting a 3rd aircraft in there and shot like 7 different videos... That shot was actually accidental ;D

Using it won't be a requirement for future themes, but using it is totally up to the shooter. ;)

I like how this theme was educational as well as fun. :)

Im pretty sure the scoreboard is uploaded once the next theme is annouced. ;) I think this one was a close one and im sure after all the theme's it will be close. 8-)
