  1. Hi,

    Whatever are your Replay intentions, FlightControlReplay 5 is the only tool for MSFS that can suit wide needs for different simmers :
    - ENJOY your aircraft animations and visuals from an exterior view after you performed the flight
    - REVIEW the flight path and your pilot skills during the full flight or a part of it
    - SECURE your experience, take advantage of the potential restore feature. FlightControlReplay 5 can replace your aircraft in its last known position in case of crash to desktop so you can resume your flight without need to restart everything from the origin airport.

    Youtuber videos of this last week illustrate well these options when you have FlightControlReplay 5.

    Hello,


    FlightControlReplay v5 for MSFS now compatible with JustFlight FSTraffic


    Today we are proud to announce that FlightControlReplay v5 has been updated with its new build 2302.3 to be compatible with Just Flight FS Traffic for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

    Thanks to the joined efforts of Just Flight and FlightControlTools made, FS Traffic and FlightControlReplay v5 work together as of now !

    Both products run at the same time and the User can choose to record a FS Traffic AI planes (by activating this feature in FCR menu Options)

    By doing so, User can record the AI traffic in the surroundings of his current position. 

    After the recording session, if the User wants to Replay the FSTraffic AI, he can Load the Replay file as PLAYAI and can move the initial position of the objects (giving an offset).

    If User wants to fly with the recorded FS Traffic AI as User Plane, he can do that by loading Replay as Standard User Plane Replay. More info if necessary in the AI Traffic section of the user manual.

    In that way  you can Relive an AI Traffic flight in the virtual cockpit !

  3. Hi ! Good news about FSTraffic and FlightControlReplay v5 compatibility ! Now in our alpha version the issue is fixed thank to collaboration between me and JustFlight . Soon you ll have release date of the fix update !

    @Timmay I think that you can adjust your FCR settings via FCR Options to adjust to your framerate .... in that way you ll have the flight that will be not anymore 2x . This happens when you record at X frame but your system replay at X-N frame per second .

  4. Hi,

    New users of FlightControlReplay5 decided to upgrade from the previous version 4.5 for the latest airliners add-ons support, or to have the Cinematic Replay, or the new User Interface look with multiple sizes.

    But not of all them were aware that the first change comes even before you actually start using FlightControlReplay.

    The setup is now also easier and faster compared to the old tool :
      * for MSFS users : it's all included in 1 automatic setup. No more separate codec, or Windows additional service to download and install. Just run the setup and GO.
      * for P3D users : things are also simplified as much as I could do. You start the same and single automatic setup and then remain only 2 Microsoft separate packages that are required. They are free to download for Windows of course, and nothing special is required during their install, so it's not a big deal.

    As you can see, for most users, in MSFS, FlightControlReplay 5 is a new experience since the beginning. So if you have the old tool version 4.5, get rid of this and upgrade now !

    Hello! New user here 🙂

    I've just got everything set up but am having an issue with camera tracking. I've enabled camera and plane tracking in the options but when watching the replay back the camera movements are not present. Everything else is tracked as expected.  I play in VR and was hoping all my head movements would be tracked like with the default tool (but that doesn't track throttle movements or button presses etc)

    I also tested it on desktop mode and moved the camera around but it also didn't track in the replay. 

     

    any help would be appreciated 

    Hi,

    As specified on the product page, FlightControlReplay records the following aircraft mobile parts animations : flaps, elevators, gear, ailerons, rudder, spoilers, thrust reversers. So it doesn't capture the virtual cockpit interactions, the full displays informaiton (although standard information will be actually displayed during Replay, especially those about the aircraft situation on a PFD for example), or the switch and rotory button actions.
    About the camera movements, it's detailed in the user manual that can be downloaded and reviewed before purchase. When you want to record camera movements, this is about creating a camera movement, a path, by using the FlightControlReplay shortcuts for the Camera Manager. If you change your view from pilot to copilot, or to the overhead, during the flight, this is not reproduced in the replay. The idea is to let all cameras accessible and selectable during Replay.

    So you don't have an issue here.

    Hi Fabio

    I need some help. I'm flying the FBW A320. You did say it was compatible with this plane before I purchased FCR.

    Recording a flight is ok i have no issues with that. It's when i try to play back a flight or record a mp4.

    ON PLAY BACK: (I load a flight on the runway first then click fly, then connect FCR)

    - my spoilers are already deployed

    - I have to manually lift landing gear once i take off

    - If i try to fast forward to my landing sometime the plane will just crash and the game states do i want to restart the flight.

    WHEN RECORDING A MP4: 

    - I get that warning "x264vfw [warning]: Few frames probably would be lost. Ways to fix this:"

         I saw you said it's just a warming so i click ok.

    - when i hit the record camera and click play the play back is very slow like it's playing 1fps

    - when i play back the mp4 the play back is very fast  

    I would appreciate if you could help me out.

     

    Hi !

    It is a pleasure help you ! For FBW spoiler and gears you tried to start replay after a new flight loaded ?

    For MP4 it is normal have 1fps for video rendering. Please try the new way (beta) that you can enable via fcr options... this will be fast in video rendering ... for very fast playback on the ground objects (cars etc ) there is no solution until now to video render at normal speed. But plane should be rendered at normal speed

  7. Hi ! I m happy that you are satisfied with LIVE GHOST ! IS a little jewel that i m refining in this firstquarter of 2023 ! Stay tuned for that !

     

    For your question i can answer here :

     

    a) no animations on the Ghost (apart from motor and propeller) -> Stay tuned for next !!!!!

    b) when pausing (either active pause or esc) the Ghost runs away and never returns -> this will be fixed in next Update of FCR . This was a little bug 

    c) the Ghost has the exact same aircraft type and livery as my plane-> Do you want change the Ghost plane livery ? In this are there are a lot of limitations in SDK but i ll check what i can do for the near future !

     

     

  8. Hi,

    In order to facilitate your use of FlightControlReplay, you may consider the following options :

    In Options General tab: Activate the feature "Automatically LOAD Replay after RECORD" : you don't need to search and manually load the last recorded flight, it is instantly ready for replay when you stop the record.

    In Options General tab: Activate the feature "Start recording automatically if you fly", then select below and specify the altitude 2,000 feet to autostart the recording session for the next flights, everytime you descend below the altitude of 2,000 a new record will be saved without need to pause, touch and setup FlightControlReplay !

    In Options Audio tab : Activate the Voice Recognition to control record and play actions. The list of available controls are detailed in the User manual.

  10. AviationLads published a retrospective video of various promotional clips that they made in 2022 and that impacted a lot in the flightsim community : aircraft, sceneries, even virtual airlines partnered with the video producer to showcase spectacular features and visuals.

    All these videos were recorded with the steady help of my tool FlightControlReplay. As you can see, it is also used by professional and content creators because it's well loaded with unique features, and it supports many other addons with specific code like the advanced airliners of PMDG 737, Fenix A320, iniBuilds A310, Just Flight 146 Professional, Cabri G2 and Bell 207 Helicopters.

  11. Hi,

    I hope you have enjoyed the latest improvements introduced by the Dec22 update. Other fixes have come on top in the last days, in order to restore the best support for the PMDG 737 MSFS, particularly for the wingflex effects during Replay, and also the Just Flight BAe 146 Professional MSFS, with its animated parts reproduced by FlightControlReplay.

    These past days, several partners shared the information about my tool including HeliSimmer among other news for helicopters fans in MSFS. The new support of helicopters like the Guimbal Cabri G2 adn the Bell 407 by FlightControlReplay open new perspectives and experiences with Replays in Microsoft Flight Simulator.
