Replay problem: Does not work correctly with Lens Effects off.

[Sporg]

Edit:

 

Just want to make clear that, as mentioned in my reply later, this issue evolved into general issues with replay.

 

So, the issue is: Replay does not work correctly, does not play back what was recorded.

 

The Lens Effect thing was probably just a coincidence.

 

Sadly one cannot change the thread title after having started it.

 

Original post:

 

I just had a weird problem with a track replay:

 

I made a nice take off, flight and landing with a Bf 109.

 

However, when replaying the track, I crashed in two different ways.

 

Only thing I had changed before the flight, not before the replay, was that I switched Lens Effects off on the options menu.

That means, the flight was performed and recorded with Lens Effects off.

 

However, since replays have been working fine for me before, and Lens Effects was the only thing I touched now, I switched them back on.

 

Now the track is working perfectly?

 

Anyone else have this issue?

Interesting, I'll have to test. I've had lens effects off since I installed and I've had track issues. Lost my first MiG-15 kill replay after finally being able to see where I was firing.

 

I'll turn on the effects and see if replays fail.

Most of the track desync issues I have are during taxiing. Sometimes my MiG-21 will not brake enough and run through the grass next to the runway and get stuck there. Same with Sabre and MiG-15.

Since my first post I got more issues.

 

Tried to record a tricky take off, now it doesn't work correctly at all. :-/

 

Even if I take off fine, in the replay I crash.

I was just going to post the same thing. When landing after a mission my plane lands in the hills in the replay, I doubt it has anything to do with lens flare, I have it on btw.

It has nothing to do with Lens effects.

Replay has always been an issue during development so basically also during "stable releases every few patches it broke again.

I have lens effects on and hilarious things happen when I replay my flights...if I get to the runway in these at all that is. There will be the one or the other patch once 1.5 releases when it will work for a moment I'm sure. Just be patient.

Glad I found this thread. I was just trying to figure this out myself tonight. It seemed to work ok for 1 out of every 5 flights or so. Mostly, crash on the runway, crash after takeoff, or the replay track just cuts off after less than a minute. So strange. Thanks for the informative post Weltensegler! Cheers :)
