So has anyone made an AVI file with the new patch? It appears that 1.0.2 has changed some things in this area, I have yet to successfully be able to do it.

Just thought of another question :)... man they are rolling now! Here is my scenario: I used a triggerzone to activate my helos taking off from an airbase. Doing it this way my helos just "pop" onto the screen. Is there anyway to have the helos hot and ready on the runway and then start their waypoint run when the trigger is fired? Thanks again for the help.

Thank you so much for the info, great input on the mobile triggers, knew of them, didn't go as far as to think to use them that way. Also, great on the uninstall/install.. might try that to fix the AVI issue you weren't sure about... maybe that will fix it. If not love to hear from others that might have ideas on my AVI issue.... Like to show some friends my movies and get them interested in doing some flying :)

Been reading like crazy, but still a few questions. I have actually gotten to the point where I can fly and engage the enemy, still always die, but doing much better and having a blast. Started messing around with the mission editor, I'm addicted now, and have a few questions some of you nice people might be able to help me with: Is there anyway to build a trigger event based on "enemy spotted"? Closest I have found is "Unit Damaged", "Group Dead" but that is a tad later than I want to invoke other actions. Current I am using a TriggerZone with "Units inside" so when the enemy tanks reach a certain point it invokes my other actions, but be nice to say "Enemy spotted" and then when I move those units around I don't have to mess around with a separate TriggerZone also. Plus it's just a guess on my part as to when the enemy is really spotted. I first started messing with the Mission Editor prior to Patch 1.0.2. After the patch I noticed that my options in "Create AVI" are different as in, missing a bunch of codecs, sample size options, etc. Right now I have 2 options for encoding and thats about it. Is this due to patch changes or maybe I need a clean install? Thoughts? If I want/need to do a clean install, do I need to also do a deactivate/reactivate on the licensing also?

I think it is just me, because I wasn't able to find anyone else looking for help on this subject on this forum. But is there anyway to reverse the mouse movements in the external view only?
