Track recording better now?

[maxTRX]

I've only tested this over PG map (flat desert area). I recorded 7 high G turning fights (DACM - ace level AI) and all of the recordings were accurate!

My graphics settings are quite high... although I use only 2xMSAA w/ .6 sharpening (net effect is better then just MSAA)   Is it MT  doing a better job?

hello. MT definitely helps. though the replay system recent changes are almost infallible now and not directly correlated with each other. i could be wrong about that. and the new camera is cool.

remember though that someone else opening your track is going to see your replay with their settings.

Nope, it still does not work with all the plane modules, F-14 is still inaccurate.

It was 2.9.0 update:

Improved Replays/Tracks: Improved track replay for human controlled aircraft by conducting more frequent continuity checks, WIP. - Note, increased track file data size when saved to disk.

Directly after that update, it worked perfectly for me and for the first time I was able to record an accurate, hour+ long replay. But strangely, every other replay since then was just as broken as before.

replays recorded on different versions of DCS may have issues still. Just bear it in mind. 

thanks

Regarding the aircraft itself, is far better, now it does not crash into the ground by itself after take off. The weapons still the same, they do whatever they want, and the things they do are different each time you play the track.

That's correct. The AI and weapons are recalculated each time during the replay.

 Being that the case, I could never understand how content creators like Growling Sidewinder can replicate tracks so accurately on their videos, even cannon shots

They probably just record the videos during play.
