save folder for films

[hitech]

It appears to me everyone is asking for different things, I am having a very hard time understanding what people are asking for?

I thought the original request was not wanting films save to the films folder but rather to a different folder set by the user?

not sure about krusty and shuffler but the ability to specify the default folder for films and/or screenshots outside of the current directory path would be a nice start.

I want it so that when I make a video of Aces High footage, the following is true:

- people see my view angles as I see them in-flight. I can't show how I'm looking side-front to see under my nose if all the film viewer shows is straight ahead "default" head position.

- people can see my custom gunsights if I am using them. Otherwise the film viewer will again default back to the standard. Means if you're going for some interesting historic video it would show IJA gunsights on the Ki-61, and LW gunsights on the 109G6, etc

As-is, unless you record directly in-game with fraps you can't replicate your saved head positions when looking around.

Since the film viewer is not using the AH head positions/gunsights, he's asking that we have a custom folder we can copy these into. I would be just as happy tying the files to the AH game files, but there is another aspect:

- You could use it as a training/comparison tool, swap in and out head positions to compare them or train newer pilots about the differences these make. Replay the film with your head positions, stop, copy in somebody else's head files, and re-watch the film (for example).

WWWAAAIITT!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im going to slightly derail the thread again, but... do films record the head positions in the WWI planes? because those are the only ones i can remember that have the head moving... but that may have changed with the time its been since ive played AH? correct me if im wrong.

That's correct.

I ask this because:

1. It can help to avoid a too fast HD consumption - avoiding to write and re-write HD billions of times.

2. It can be helpful for those who have not so fast pc. (not so sure)

See, the way you were talking about gunsights head positions, etc, I thought you were going a totally different route there.

I as well. I'm with Krusty's posts in this thread though, up to now.
