tale Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Hey there! Whenever I watch a replay, the head movements of the pilot are there as recorded during gameplay, but as soon as I move the mouse or change the view, say by pressing F2 for example, they are gone. Is there a way to go back to the first person view with the originally recorded head movements? I can’t find any key in the view menu to do this. Flying is fantastic, but add a few missiles and explosions and it becomes addictive. --------- http://www.youtube.com/c/taletoul

Yeah, that is due to the way the Track system is designed. It doesn't actually record the cockpit nor the simulation itself, but rather the control inputs you made to the simulator. Basically this is not a replay of the mission, but just another fresh simulation. However, the control input is not coming from your hardware but rather the actual track file it self. This means the whole camera/input functionality is actually just incremental. E.g such stored information could be like (just an example though): Step 1: Move view: 5° right Move view: 5° upwards Step 2: Move view: 5° right Move view: 5° down After step 2 you would be at 10° and 0° up/down. However, if you miss some of the steps (because you interacting with the camera controls while the track plays), that "replay" can not be correctly resumed. While it probably would be possible to solve this problem in a difficult way, I would not really expect that any time soon. Even more useful stuff (reversing a track for example) has yet to be implemented, while people have been asking for it for years. Maybe one day ED will get around too do it, but I assume their current priorities are in EDGE (who knows though, maybe it will come with a new Track system?).

tale Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 Thank you xxJohnxx, I didn't know how the replay system worked. Interestingly enough in external view (F2) I see the pilot moving his head left and right. I agree with you that the possibility to rewinding the track is a more useful feature. Flying is fantastic, but add a few missiles and explosions and it becomes addictive. --------- http://www.youtube.com/c/taletoul
tmansteve Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Hey Tale How do you see the pilot moving his head? I've tried loads of ways but never seen it. Pressing F2 nothing happens. Is this in recorded mode or actual flying? Are you using Trackir or facetracknoir? cheers

Is this in recorded mode or actual flying? Are you using Trackir or facetracknoir? cheers It's in replay mode, for example you can see the pilot moving his head side to side at 10 seconds into . He never moves it up and down though. I'm using Trackir. Flying is fantastic, but add a few missiles and explosions and it becomes addictive. --------- http://www.youtube.com/c/taletoul
tmansteve Posted August 29, 2015 Posted August 29, 2015 Watched your vid Tale and was impressed. I use a Delanclip headset and tracknoir. If I move my head and instantly go to F2, I see the pilot looking at that angle i.e Left or Right. So if I move my head and then select replay, then hit F2 I should see the head movement. Do I have to save the Track or just watch it again?
