I wasn't pressing FLY NOW after starting the replay.  All is well except I'm still struggling to understand some aspects of the program.

Sorry but there are some aspect that are not under my control . For example READYTOFLY button you should click on before that you start play with FCR.... This is not my fault but it is a fault of ASOBO / MSFS implementation ..

For example also AI OFFLINE and G.A slider and Airline slider to 0 is a MS / ASOBO issue not from my side 

BUT FOR THIS YOU HAVE WORKAROUND => Check "Load Replay without load initial flight situation" flag

In that case you are able LOAD YOUR FLIGHT RECORDED ALSO WITH REAL TIME AI or G.A and AIRLINE SLIDER SET TO MAX!

This is because with this flag I load recorded flight directly into actual flight situation without reset scenery and situation

WHEN ASOBO WILL FIX IT ( i hope ine next month simupdate) this limitation will go 😉

I'm also having this problem when rendering a video in FCR. The world like traffic and cars, wing flex and other parameters are running in real time while the aircraft renders frame by frame. The resulting video looks pretty silly. Is there going to be a fix for this or am I setting something wrong? This would have been one of the first things I would have noticed in beta testing so I'd be really surprised if they didn't catch this problem.

 

Unfortunatelly these (cars, wingflex ) is a MS bug about pause , i hope AS / MS fix it in next simupdate and in my next iterations will be fixed!!! In this days ASOBO fixed server side a couple of behaviours and i think they are very quick to fix issues 😉

Be an ASOBO / MS official developer 3rd party is a plus 😛

Thanks

At the moment I'm only interested in "replay", not cinematic recording.  I want to record my takeoff and/or landing and then watch it from a specific camera position.   But I just can't figure it out.  When I first started the replay, I could not access any camera controls.  Pressing the camera button in MSFS wouldn't bring up anything so I couldn't position the camera.  Eventually as the replay progressed I was able to access the camera modes but the replay was well into the flight with the plane just about clearing the end of the runway.  Not what I wanted.  When I recorded a landing and then replayed it, I was never able to access the camera controls while the replay was playing. 

I must be missing a very basic understanding of this program.   What am I missing?

As said custom camera and all camera views are fully compatible with FlightControlReplay . In addition you can also after you recorded a flight put a trigger where you want for change automatically your camera at a determinate frame ....

Fabio.. is there a way of minimising FCR so it stays on top screen but in a smaller minimised condition so I dont have to use the task bar every time I want to use it, which is a lot?.... If not can I bind a key do do such a thing? Having it disappear totally is not good... thanks

I ll work on it in next updates !

I have the same issue when using the VideoCam button in the main interface (similar error message). Additionally, in "Options" I cannot change the FPS dropdown menu from 60 to any other different value, it seems fixed to 60.

Would you mind explaining in more detail the steps needed to properly use the VideoCam button to record a video in mp4 format?.

Thanks, Ed

 

Yes Ed !

I try explain well :

1) record your flight as usual

2) load your replay

3) click video rendering button

4) choose file path and name

5) click play on fcr 

at this point you ll have framebyframe rendering. And framebyframe video codec start render . When you want stop press play to pause and click video rendering button . This button will be red now (from green) and you ll have your video file ready 

Please install the right codec you find in readme

Remember that video rendering is possible only using recorded flight and not during live FreeFlight

Hey Fabio, Great job indeed. I followed your instructions and voila, no more crashes.

However I am not able to assign keyboard shortcuts for FCR buttons as mentioned in guide. There is no response or any changes on screen whatever the keys or combinations I press.

Hi!! 
 

do you need click assign button before you can configure and press the button

Hello Fabio, thank you very much, fantastic software !!!

 

MSFS2020, W10  : everything works perfect here too  : )

could you help me just for one thing in my system :

i only have the choice of 60fps in the parameter video recording alpha,

cannot choose or write any other fps number in the box

any idea ?

Hi thank you for your congrats !! I m very happy for this FCR !!! 
 

This option it is setting only for video rendering . In next updates in the future will arrive also more choices (90-120) . But I m testing it in these days !

remember that video rendering is to use for render video of a recorded flight , not render directly a live FreeFlight 😎

Using a little c172 g1000 the replay works fine. The moment I use the stable version of the a320 fbw mod, the sim crashes when I load the recording. 

Very good for standard c172 !!! For airbus A320 fbw  mod i ll test it ! As soon as msfs will stabilize with new sdk I ll start test also payware aircraft and adjust it 👌

According to the documentation, it says that only flywithai does not support multiplayer and ai traffic. Are you saying that the whole FCR application needs multiplayer and ai to turn off? 

Yes live traffic is under investigation in Asobo (the compatibility with fcr ) .

i ll post news as soon as I ll have 

[FCR doesnt work properly in msfs2020]

If you start a flight without touch active pause, start fcr , click instant replay, use it when you are comfortable to do , rewind at the point you want , press two time stop button ? I thinked I left in the manual click 2 time stop button but incheck
