Dumb question

A place to converse about the general aspects of flight simulation in New Zealand

Postby Splitpin » Tue Jun 08, 2010 1:41 pm

Excuse me for asking this.. rolleyes.gif ..but.....Ive noticed on a lot of the screenshots there is more than one aircraft (not the multiplay shots)......how do you do that?? Good example is Seans latest otter shot....and Bruce's SBD.

All these years simming and Ive always flown alone (except for a red arrows formation thingy...years ago)

Come on.....share the luuvvv smile.gif

Failing getting a couple of friends to join you in a multiplayer session, most use FS Recorder or similar tools. Its a simple yet effective tool - you conduct a fight while it records your every move. Then you playback the flight and fly alongside the recorded plane! I've not used it in some time but it was a gem whenever I wanted to practice some formation flying!! Best of all....... ITS FREEWARE!! thumbup1.gif

FSRecorder is the way to go for camera angles too! It does so much more than the multi-aircraft shots. Basically put, ANY camera angle that you want, you can get with this program.
Also, for the 2004 version, get 1.33....don't get the latest Beta. It changes things up too much!
