Unable to make track recordings after patch

[hockeywarrior]

Ever since the last patch whenever I hit ESC and click "Start Recording" the game locks up immediately. Anyone else getting this? Ugh what a broken game ... as patient as I am, I have to sigh once again.

Certain interface or pop-up windows are works in progress, so the sim uses pop-ups from microsoft windows in their place.

This was happening in multiplayer too a couple of patches ago, when selecting what you wanted to fly you'd get a windows pop-up with the available options, but they have changed it and it now works from inside the sim's interface.

It still happens with tracks though: a windows pop-up will appear asking you where to save your file.

If you have disabled the aero interface (in win7 and vista) the pop-up can't be displayed and you get a lock up. The temporary solution is to enable aero until they change it to use the in-game interface.

Ah I see that makes sense , as I do have it deactivated. Thanks for the tip.
