*.fcr file OK for replay mode and NOK for video mode


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I just updated FCR to version 5 and I tried it on MSFS. A fcr file was created for a small flight without any problem. After this I loaded this fcr file for building the corresponding video. I was surprised that the process was interrupted by the message “you overstressed the aircraft and caused critical damage”. During the flight the highest value of speed was about 170 kts for a limit at 182 (KODIAK 100). It can be observed that the 182 kts was reached only during the creation of the video and not during the replay (and also not during the video made at the same time by using game DVR).

If I take caution to maintain the speed far from the limit (more than 10 kts) there is no problem for creating a video from the fcr file.

Perhaps there is also something I have not understood in the process.

Thank you for comments.

Best regards

Hello;

Thank you very much for answering. I remain a bit surprised by the difference between the speed indicated during the initial flight and the one observed during replay or replay & video mode. This difference may be greater than 5 kts. I guess there is an explanation from the way of processing initial data to get the final one.

Best regards

Hello,

To illustrate this problem of maximum speeds difference I  add two screenshots showing that this difference may be of 12 kts. Obviously there is only one flight: the one having created the fcr file. The difference is observed only when playing the video created by FCR. I just would like to have some explanation about the origin of this difference.

Thank you for comments.

Best regards

Hello,

I have noticed that the difference observed for the aircraft speed when playing a video is not alone.

The video created from a fcr file during a short flight from LFLE to LFLB shows there is a large difference between the heading indicator and the compass. Everything is OK with the compass but values observed with the heading indicator are completely false.

I replayed the flight without the creation of video and I observed also a large difference between both indications. However during the replay the heading indicator showed always the same value: the heading before take-off.

The folder (cf link) contains all data created during this test. I have added the video made by GameDVR during the whole process of creating the fcr file.

Thank you very much for an explanation.

Best regards
