HT showed it to me today Gabby, you turn it on and off when you want it. It is much more than a gun cam, beleive me, you can go external or internal with it, watch the fight from any angle around your plane you wish. It is just too cool :-)Uses up to about 1.5 meg of hard drive space an hour.

Yup, film recorder is great. The trail feature is awesome, and I like that all a/c names are saved too. But how "freelook" in external view. Would be nice if it was like in AW3 where you could freelook with mouse. Another thing that was nice in AW3 flight recorder (which btw is much inferior than this, even at early version, one) was that every sortie was saved as ONE film. If you turned recorder on & off during that sortie it wouldn't start another film but it just added sequence after sequence. Hoe about jumping to another plane? Would help a lot finding any mistakes in evasives and such, not to mention the thrill watching yourself fighting for you life from the eyes of your enemy...
All in all I like the recorder very much!

Will it be available in the beta soon? How is it activated?

Just wanted to say I've tried the recorder offline and it is very cool. Great job HT and crew.
BTW I'm all for the cutback on bringing in new planes. Concentrating on details is the way to go. I would rather have a near finished simm with fewer planes than a roughed in simm with many planes.
Looks like HTC have got their prioritys straight.

HT and other staff is working very well!
I love this recorder...
BTW, here is a screenshot from one film. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

This film was named "I shot down NATEDOG!" *GRIN* (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
(But I was shot down by NATEDOG after this sortie...agggrrrrrr...)

Ya, what the heck is that.

His pic is from the film recorder. It has an option to show you path traveled( think its called track on there)

Thanks Tibbets, That is it.
trail function is very useful to us.
you can make maneuver training films (wing-over, jink, dive attack, and etc) easily.
I hope that anyone makes "ACM Training or Flight School" with films.
you no longer need to draw figure!
Fishu, don't you make this? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Yes...A big pat on the back is in order, to the HTC crew for giving us this film recorder. (this is what everyone wanted in WB ) Its really cool to watch external views in f4 mode with f8(pan) selected. you can use arrow keys to view from all directions. I know its early but my only suggestion would be if the speed slider had both reverse and forward with the center being stop. at any rate great job guys (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I'd like to be able to just do some simple editing so i can cut out the action to make the file smaller or make a compilation (a-la-brendo) Hey i might even make a feature length movie using only aces high guncam footage. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Afterthought : What would be great would be a fixed external camera from a distance which doesn't follow the planeas if you were an observer watching form a distance. This would be great for merge tactics and the trails would come into there own.
