![]() Note that the Flight Simluator should be up and running before launching Pilot Path Recorder. Only new flights recorded will distinguish whether the plane is on the ground or in the air. ![]() ![]() Note that previous flights recorded in the database assume plane is in the air the entire flight. This way people can zoom in on when their plane landed or took off and look at detail easier. Changed yellow push-pins on Flight Path Data Points to green meaning plane is on the ground or blue meaning plane is the air. The errors are now stored in a PilotPathRecorderLog.txt and a message is shown on the user interface if an exception occursĪdded ability for the application to check for updatesĪdded the ability to know if your plane is on the ground or in the air. Rewrote the logging subsystem for simplicity and to support automatic loggingįixed issue with FlightSampleDetails table create missing sim_on_ground columnĪdded database exception logging. If you pause a log and then go below the threshold speed you must manually stop the log. If you manually stop an automatically started log then once you go below the threshold speed and then above that speed again it will start an automatic log as a new flight. If you manually start logging then you must manually stop it. Some rules about how manual and automatic logging work together. You can still manually start, pause, continue, and stop logging as you did before. Above that value, logging starts and below that value, it stops and the flight log is saved. Some more details: There is a new setting on the main page that allows you to turn on and off this feature (default is on) and also set the ground velocity to a specific value to your liking. This way you will never forget to log your flight. A database is used to store your flights so feel free to fly during one session and export in another.Īdded ability to automatically start and stop the recorder based on flight ground speed. Once run, this application allows the user to set various settings to control the recording and exporting experience. This is a stand-alone application that must be run outside of Microsft Flight Simulator 2020. Then export that data to a KML file to use with Google Earth for 3 dimensional flight analysis, flight plan information and a chance to review your flight from the first person perspective. I’m not at all sure why there’s a difference between the two scenarios, but do keep that in mind.Record your flight path with key flight information archived during the trip. This was also without the added stress of video recording. I also noticed that the playback of the aircraft’s movements was choppy, as if there were missing frames. (I usually hover around the mid-40s to 50s). Here, I noticed that my sim’s framerate would take a noticeable hit down to about 25-30FPS. For the second test, I used a Cirrus SR22 and flew over the southern tip of Great Britain, starting from Land’s End. With that, I had no issues at all and was also able to perform a video recording with no hiccups. My first test consisted of a Cessna 172 flying over the relatively simple scenery of the Channel Islands. Unfortunately, if you want to use this for content creation, your mileage may vary.Īfter performing two test replays, I noted different results. The actual recording and replay functionality perform well. ![]() Even in its current state though, I can report that it works very well - to a degree. Flight Recorder will no doubt become more robust after it gets additional updates by its developer. ![]()
