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 !

From the Live Replay, to the most advanced features like PlayAsAI, AI Traffic tracking, or the Cinematic Replay and Ghost Plane, there are multiple ways to get entertained with your flight sim and FlightControlReplay 5. Explore them !

[FlightOnFly]

Hello,

When you run a recording session of your flight simulator, you have to deal at the same time with the game window and with FlightControlReplay 5 interface.

For a video production, you don't want any other interface to be displayed in the final result. That's why you will prefer to use the standard Windows of FlightControlReplay 5 to ensure the user interface will not be captured by the video recording of your flight simulator session. And you will particularly appreciate how FCR5 user interface can be customized, modified, to be adapted to your monitor layout and resolution.

You can switch between the three sizes available, and on top of it, you can also turn on/off the transparency mode. Limit the space used on your monitor, or keep the maximum size if you need all the buttons visible.

FlightControlReplay v5 SUMMER UPDATE and FlyBy Camera for MSFS and P3D5, presented in Preview at FSEXPO 2023.

INTERVIEW WITH FSELITE for FSExpo2023



I had pleasure record this interview with FSELITE Staff during #FSEXPO2023. This was a great moment for me and FlightControlReplay ! I can say thank you to all FSELITE Staff , Jordan and Calum ! Thanks guys for this wonderful opportunity !

​INCOMING SOON : SUMMER 23 UPDATE , presented in Preview at FSEXPO 2023.

The most complete tool to replay and record videos - FlightControlReplay version 5 – compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator and Prepar3D 5.x will receive soon a new and impressive SUMMER 23 UPDATE.

FLY-BY CAMERA FOR REPLAY

Awaied by many users of Microsoft Flight Simulator, this brand new Replay feature that was missing is LIVE. You can now watch your own aircraft evolving on ground and in the air from a external camera that follows your position automatically. It works anywhere, with any aircraft and with any add-on scenery during Replay. The user can select the right side or the left side, and set the custom distance of his choice.

During taxi operations, at takeoff or landing, or while you are cruising, fly-by camera mode will jump from a position to another along your flight trajectory to keep your aircraft always in sight with a cinematic performance ! No more hassles in setting a virtual spotter view, a button click and you are set to watch !

HYPER PERFORMANCE GROUP H145 V2 FURTHER SUPPORT

With the last March 23 Update of FlightControlReplay 5, I initially supported this iconic helicopter model in MSFS with cyclic pedals, and collective control accurately reproduced in your Replay.

Now in Summer 23 Update, the custom support of this advanced helicopter in MSFS is complete : lights, doors, engine switches…

Complex aircraft add-ons need a custom development time and coding effort to make sure that all events are actually detected and reproduced during Replay. HPG H145 V2 is now added to my growing list already including PMDG 747, Fenix A320, Fly The Maddog MD80 series, Just Flight 146 Pro, Aerosoft CRJ, iniBuilds A310, FlyByWire Simulations A32NX, and Salty 747-400 Mod.

MORE ADVANCED FEATURES : CUT REPLAY AND REDUCED FILE SIZE

Is there a part of your Replay that you feel is useless or too long before/after the action moment ? No problem anymore, and it’s very practical to be able now to cut your Replay directly from FlightControlReplay V5 user interface. You won’t need to cut the final video in your video editing software, and you will keep the FCR file at the minimum size that you need with only the interesting part that you are interested in.

Another improvement to enjoy, is the reduction of .FCR user files. By using an efficient compression technology, FlightControlReplay V5 files of your recorded flights will now require much less free space on your disk. It will make it also easier and faster to share these files in the Cloud or on a separate mobile drive.

MORE CUSTOMIZE OPTIONS OF USER INTERFACE

FlightControlReplay V5 already came by default with several options to adapt its size, transparency, to your need with 3 layouts of the user interface, and other options to activate transparency or the mode Always-on-top to keep the window of FCR5 always visible even with the flight simulator in full screen.

The new option adds the ability to user in the medium size layout to set his preference between

keeping the menu (Load / Play AI / Re-live / Options / Export Import / Tips)

or if he prefers to maintain visible the buttons command bar (Voice Control / Video Rendering / Slow / Fast / Take or Leave control / AI Aircraft cycling / Cinematic Replay / Ghost Live / Fly-By Camera).

  HPG H145 enhanced support for custom replay : lights, doors, engine switches
  Cut feature of the Replay

Hi,

Last 48h sale 20% OFF for FlightControlReplay 5 at SIMMARKET until July 05th 23:59 CET

Did you notice you have Two modes of Replay in the tool for MSFS and P3D5 ?

- RE-LIVE : this is the easiest and fastest method for a quick replay of your last 2 minutes of flight. Activate RE-LIVE with 1 button click, and use the time slider to review your last 120 seconds of flight at anytime.
Click on STOP just once to continue the flight from the moment in the past that you selected.
This mode also enable the Crash Recovery feature in case of return to desktop of your simulator. FlightControlReplay saves your last position and will restart the flight from the last known position where you were before the crash !

- STANDARD : this is the most common method for any replay with all advanced features enabled. Click Record and fly ! No limit of your recording time, you can record and replay an entire flight if you want. To replay, just load it (or use the automatic option to load always the last recorded flight) and click PLAY.
Anytime during Replay, use TakeControl button to resume the flight live and restart flying from that point (if you missed an approach or a navigation point of your flight plan). And you can also record a new flight now, without alteration to your previously recorded flight.

[FlightOnFly]

Hello.

Have you already noticed that you can set an Automatic Camera Change during Replay ? Here's some help about it if you need.

Load a Replay first. Click Play to start. The next steps need to be performed from the standard window of FlightControlReplay. If you don't want to leave the flight simulator, then activate the option "Always-on-top".

Now in FCR5 User Interface, click Pause and use the Pencil button right below the time slider. This opens a new window where you can select another camera view among the default cameras supported in the simulator. They are sorted by Camera type Cockpit / Internal / Showcase.

Repeat the same steps at the different times when you want to select a different camera. When you restart the full replay, you will enjoy your work with Automatic Camera change. More details in the User Manual pages 31-32.

For those of you who want a random and full automatic camera change, then use the Cinematic Replay feature ! You have the direct button for its activation both in MSFS toolbar and in Windows user interface.

[FlightOnFly]

Hello,

Today's focus is on the feature "Take/Leave control" in FlightControlReplay 5, available in MSFS and P3D.

Basically, it will be used to switch the control of the aircraft between you and the software.

During a Replay, click on TakeControl returns the flight controls Live to you and you can fly again from this moment. Click again on TakeControl and the active aircraft will return controlled by FlightControlReplay, and its position and path will respect again the flight data recorded in the Replay file.

If you use PlayAsAI to generate AI aircrat, or if there are AI aircraft generated by your AI traffic situated in the vincinity of your position, click on this button to take full control of the selected AI plane or your own airplane currently on Replay. Click again this button, and the control returns to FlightControlReplay, all aircraft settings return in line with recorded values of the Replay.

Hi,

If some of you are still using my old FlightControlReplay 4.5 that was originally designed for FSX and old versions of Prepar3D, it's recommended to update to the current version 5, released since late 2022.

It's particularly appreciated for the addition of the integrated MSFS interface, the cinematic Replay to cycle the multiple cameras automatically, Live Ghost to experience the flying formation in duet with an AI pilot, and the specific support for the PMDG 737, Fenix A320, FBW A32NX and more addons aircraft in MSFS !

For returning customers who already have version 4.5, there's a big discount for you : the total amount of your previous purchase + the update fee will make you pay barely the same than a brand new customer buying the version 5.

Hello,

Instead of searching one tool per usage, one for recording, one for a quick replay at landing, one for your flight path analysis, get all-in-one with FlightControlReplay 5.

You also have the option to resume the flight from another instant in these last 2 minutes, in case that you missed a waypoint, your missed your approach, a figure of your acrobatic routine.

And of course, all these features are available at any phase of flight. You are not limited to a location or a specific time. Instant Replay is ready anytime and anywhere, for both MSFS and P3D, just activate the feature and enjoy your complete tool FlightControlReplay 5.
