Bottom line is, its not as hard as it may look, but I get wordy becuase sometimes its better to have too much info than not enough. I will re edit this based on your comments and results. Also The example shows this being done to the stock Bell 2. Well, turned out to be a bad idea, since that helo has a problem showing animations as a recording. ALL other helos except the Robinson seemed to work great, although that doesnt include everything out there. So this example is only an example, you can follow it and apply to a real, quality downloaded helo and it should work great, or follow it explicitly and experiment with the Bell. Anyway here you go Recording and playing back Helicopters with FS Recorder. As we know, making a recording of a helicopter with FS Recorder is very possible its just playing it back that causes the simulator to crash. This is due to the fact the FS9s and FSXs lack of capability to use Helicopters as AI computer generated traffic, and the dependancy FS Recorder has on using the AI routines of the simulator. So the trick is, to make a duplicate Kind of AI Helicopter that the sim can use without crashing, and that FS Recorder can thus use as well. My Traffic 2010 Fs2004' title='My Traffic 2010 Fs2004' />This is done by cloning the entire folder of the helo you want to use, then modifying the files slightly to make a tweaked AI Helo that is dedicated for that purpose. This only has to be done once per helicopter type you want to use. The second part is, since you use the REAL non tweaked helo to record your flight, and FS Recorder 1. AI helo instead. This last part is a temporary workaround until version 1. Matthias Neusingers FS Recorder is released, which will allow much easier modification of the recorded aircraft name THANK YOU MATTHIASNow for the caveat It aint real simple but also aint impossible, obviously. If youre determined to to do it, you can. Cessna 182T Skylane Austrian Registration OEJOE Download File Flight1T182SkylaneRepaintOEJOE. MB. FSX Alitalia Super McDonnell Douglas MD80. Features a very real 2D panel with all tools to fly comfortably and have all the information about the aircraft and flight. Well, I have windows 7 home edition 64 bit. My computer is a intel i5 333ghz ram is 16 gigs can take up to 32 I have FSX Gold edition. Yeah, I think its natural to be skeptical. The rest of us will continue to use FS2004 or FSX if thats the case. AND the community will still live on. And remember, for now at least, you need to massage each recording file before you can play it back, or the sim will crash when you try to replay a real helo recording. The good news is, you dont have to go through all the trouble of making a true AI helo, which can be an involved subject just a few tricks have to be employed so it works with FS Recorder. To review the steps, they are 1 Duplicate or clone the helo you want to use. FS aircraft folder, and renaming it. Replace the. air file for it with one for a fixed wing non helo aircraft, and also make some minor changes to the aircraft. Fly the REAL original, non tweaked helo in the sim, and record the flight with FS Recorder. Modify the FS Recorder. AI helo name. Lather, rinse, repeat steps 3 and 4 for any additional recordings you want to make with your helo. If you want to use another, different helo as well, then perform steps 1 2 for it to prep an AI version for use. Tools required Strangers cool Rename It tool to modify the Recorder files just slightly after recording them http www. Download and install, and create a shortcut to it somewhere very convenient becuase youl be using it quite a bit once per helo recording. Step 1 Make a duplicate folder of the helicopter you want to use with FS Recorder Easy enough. Navigate to your FS9 Aircraft folder or Sim. ObjectsRotorcraft in FSX, right click on the the folder of the helo you want to use, choose copy, then right click again, choose paste, then right click one more time on the new folder name and rename it to exactly the same name as the original except put the letters AI at the end. As an example, well use the stock Bell 2. Copy the Bell. 20. Copy of at the beginnging, and adding AI at the end, so it appears as shown here The contents of both the folders should be identical at this point. Step 2 Modify the files of the AI version for FS Recorder Two files need to be changed First, the. Then, the aircraft. AI helo with a name and other parameters that indicate that. It turns out that any. Lets go grab one from a plane that doesnt fly too fast and that everyone should have. Piper Cub Go to the PiperJ3. Cub folder in the Aircraft folder, right click on the file PiperJ3. Cub. air, and choose copy. Then navigate back into the folder of your new AI helo, right click, and choose paste. Now, rename that. AI helo folder but also add the letters AI just before the period and filename extension dont add it to the very end of the whole filename, just add it at the end of the first part of the filename, as shown below. Simple Next Double click on the aircraft. AI naming you will need. For the Bell, the new entries look like this and maybe I changed more than I needed to, so this perhaps can be trimmed don but it works note that were adding the letters AI just at the very END of entries such as title, sim, uimanufacturer uitype and uivariationFor helos with multiple repaints and additional fltsim. Save the file and that should do it. Step 3 Go record the file and tweak it for use Load the REGULAR, unmodifed version of the helo NOT the new AI version if it shows up in the aircraft menu, unless you want weird results and a helo that might fly like a Piper Cub and record a short flight with FS Recorder. Step 4 Now, change the recording slightly before playing back so it uses the fake AI helo instead The objective here is to open the recording file you just created and change the name of the REAL helicopter you just recorded, and, just like the edits for the AI helo, simply add the letters AI to the end to trick FS9 and the recorder into playing back the helo recording with the fake AI helo so FS9 wont lockup Easy huh Well, lets start Fire up Strangers Rename It tool that you downloaded from the link way above and installed. Navigate to the folder where you store your FS Recorder files, click on the file for the recording you just created, and the name of the original aircraft you recorded it with wil be shown in the entry field toward the ottom of the applet window. Modify the aircraft name to represent the name of the new AI Helo we made in our example, we go to the end of the filename and simply add the letters A and I so the name is now exactly conforming to everything else weve been doing AI at the end. Thats it. save the file using Save As, give it a slightly new name since the tool protects the original recording file by not allowing it to be overwritten and youre done. Actually pretty easy huhAfter you verify it works, you can delete the original recording file that still has the original helo name in it. Step 4 Go back to FS9 or FSX and play the tweaked FS Recorder file as either Play as Traffic or Play Oooops. This seems to work with every single downloaded helo Ive tried it on, but for whatever reason, in proofing the above with the STOCK helos, I found an odd thing having to do just with the stock Bell 2. OR the stock Robinson R2. For whatever reason, the rotors dont turn and the sound is not right on the Bell, and the Robinson just dont work. This does not happen with any other helos this has been done with. Dont know why yet suggestions are appreciated. Since its just the stock Bell 2. So far this seems to work with everything else.
