A replay function that doesn't crash to desktop or produce other errors and has FF, RW, Stop/Start and smooth camera controls (pan, tilt, rotate, lock on target, etc.)

I should add that I view the replays on a monitor, not the VR headset.

This has been happening very frequently lately. The main problem is that when I try to load a replay, DCS crashes to desktop. Some replays work, but most do not. This happened most recently today with the latest track file I have. Another intermittent issue I have is that when I record a track file, there is no sound in my recording. Lately, I cannot get the replays to play at all though. Here's my log file. Any suggestions are welcome. dcs.log

Thank you silver devil...I will try that this weekend.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this post, but I'm having an issue with replays. My system: i9-13900, 64GB ram, rtx4090, 2tb samsung ssd, pimax 8kx. When I view replays (on my monitor), the view often zooms in. The point of view continues to move, replicating my head movements during play, but the view is zoomed in. I can zoom out using the / key, but then the point of view is stationary unless I use the number keys to pan, tilt, and rotate. The view is no longer controlled by whatever I was looking at when I played the mission. Is there something I'm doing while playing that's causing this? Sometimes it doesn't happen until an hour or more into the replay and at other times soon after first wheels up. I would like to make some videos, but I would like to show the pilot perspective. Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated!

Same problem, but I didn't respawn. Flew one sortie then landed, rearmed and refueled. Engine wouldn't start so I left the server to watch the replay. This began yesterday and I've made no changes. I was on Wolpack server. I notice in the log, it says something about OpenXR failed. I'll check those settings. dcs.log-20240304-024849.zip

I fly in VR and playback in 2D by not starting Pimax software and then opening DCS. The initial view is a recording of whatever I was looking at when creating the track file. If I change views, is there a way to get back to this initial view from the pilot's perspective. Hitting F1 goes back to cockpit view but is locked on whatever I was looking at when I first change to a different view during playback. I'm also having difficulty getting the sound to play. I'm using Nvidia shadowplay, and sometimes I can get the audio to play, but when I import to powerdirector, there's no sound in the sound track.

Some pilots in both world wars racked up impressive kill numbers by only engaging "easy" targets (low energy, no help, etc.). Targets of opportunity you might say.

Thank you SilentOtto, I know almost nothing about kneeboards and never heard of Open Kneeboard before you mentioned it. But, I managed to get that done and now can move on to learning how to set up and use the radios. Thanks!

Hey Miles, yes, that looks like it. I've yet to get into a server and figure out how to use it though. I have only the 109 and have added a radio, but don't know how to tune it or what frequency range it should have.

Wrong overlay. I'm talking about the one that lists the radios you have set up, frequencies, and who's talking. It shows up on my desktop monitor instead of the VR headset.

Nice! I'll give it a go this morning. Thanks!

I did, but someone told me about that and turned it off, but still the appGPU hovers around 0.0 to 0.1 ms. Not sure why as there's no way that's accurate.

I'm running an i9-13900k @5.6, 64GB DDR5 @6000, Asus TUF OC 4090 (despite the ridiculous price tag), Samsung Pro 990 2 TB SSD, and with a Pimax 8kx I get about 75 fps as long as I stay above 2km. For some reason, flying low with the sun at my back, especially over cityscapes, fps drops to 40s. I have the XRToolkit overlay on but it rarely shows any value above 0.0 for GPU and CPU is usually less than 6ms. Not sure what to do, but I'll keep tweaking settings.
