Excellent new recorder module

[cmhodge]

I saw this on The Other Major Site. There is a new recorder module, available for free in Beta version, at: http://www.neusinger.net/recorder
This is a vast improvement over the default replay, and allows you to save replays (smaller files than flight video). Playback is much smoother, and includes AI traffic. Also has a CD player-type playback control (you can hide this if you want).

I've only had a chance to play with this for about 15 minutes, but it looks like a new indespensible addon.

One small correction: This does not record AI traffic. However, existing traffic will "play through" during playback. For example if you replay a landing you'll see any parked planes that were nearby (unless they've moved in the meantime). Check it out!

What kind of FPS hit are you seeing, if any?

[cmhodge]

I haven't noticed any, tho I have not done benchmark. Also, you can configure sample rate, buffer size, etc, to optimize it if it affects your setup.

Hi, ive used the recorder without any frame rate impact at all, found out that if you record a full aerobatic flight without smoke on, when you watch that flight back from say the tower view u can actually press the smoke activate button on joystick/keyboard and have smoke come on/off when ever you want so can record with FRAPS or another video capture tool and have precise smoke to your display :) :)

Chris,

Just in case you missed the note about banner size limits, (at the top of the forums), I've taken the liberty to re-size yours so that it complies with those limits.

Please feel free to use this one for your future posts.

Thanks,

Darrell

Darrell,
Very sorry my image was too big. I noticed it was kind of annoying to see it repeated at that size, and was meaning to do something about it. I've resized it now.
thanks,
