replay function problem

That also means, on a full real online server I can never record anything and watch it later with external views on. Too bad, that was better in the old IL2! Hope they consider fixing this also in a patch?

Thanks for your answer

Exactly.

I guess is a bug in the gui due the incomplete stage.

"incomplete" that`s what they should have written on the box before selling it.

I dont think it is a bug, I think it is to stop online cheating. In IL2 people would log on, record a quick track then scroll through enemy a/c to get the locations.

Its a good thing imo.

I was thinking the same thing but you cant switch externals in single player missions either.

Hi Buchon, like your screenshots btw, in single player we can pick open cockpit and not use it, so I think that although it may be annoying it is the best option they have taken if it prevents cheating online. Hopefully the devs will come up with an alternative, I think someone mentioned a time delay ect in another post (will do a quick search and see if i can find it). I do agree with you as I mainly play online and would like to see a replay of the missons Ive flown as well, but what we have (if it is to prevent cheating) is understandable.

Indeed is a good idea for multiplayer, but is really annoying cant switch externals in a single player mission replay.

its no so important solve this, you can allow externals in single player and that is it, but are one of those of small things that dirt the final picture.

They stated that are working in a new gui and I dont think that is a difficult thing to do that the record system disguise between single and multi, so hope that all get together at end.

Edit:

Another problem in replays is that it shows the default skin always.

If a mission is done with another skin this change is not saved.

disagree guys, even for multiplay there should be a option to allow external views to learn from your performance regardless of the ways in which to stop cheaters.

This is one of my biggest 'beefs' with the game.

I like to record a mission that I built in FMB, go into track replay, edit views and make a little film.

I discovered early on, that the 'edit views' function doesn't work properly.

When the patch which included the Minensuchboot came out, I recorded a track of a Blenheim bombing it. I was flying the Blenheim, and hit it with one of my four bombs.

In track replay, the Blenheim didn't get anywhere near the Boat, let alone hit it with the bombs.

I had to re-record the mission in order to make a little clip, but had to do it 'on the fly' which is pretty difficult when aiming bombs, but luckily it turned out ok.

It's top of my list for things to sort out.

No doubt it's on 'their' list aswell. At some point.

After taking a screenshot in game with keystroke, not printscreen, where are screenshots stored? and can multiple unlimited screenshots be taken by the game, not by printscreen, so they can be edited later.
