Tracking File Glitch! - Dave - 02-26-2020

I have been complaining about this for years!

Ships are not where they are supposed to be in track files!
There location can be off by up to a mile!

Case in point:

I dropped 2-40lbers on the LAST TANKER,
watched it blow up from my rear gunner position,
but the track file shows me dropping into the wide open Thames,
& then the last tanker blows up in the distance...

How can we get this fixed!
(ship attack videos are impossible...)

(Oh, & for SpookSmile


P.S.
IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO REWIND A TRACK FILE,
pls tell me...

Can't rewind trk files. Its not a bug, its a "Feature"

In the BOS trackfiles, you can bring up an interface by hitting the "H" key. (default keymap).  It is possible then, using your mouse to drag the file point backwards to another point, where upon it reloads the track and starts again.  Useful for filming the same view from different viewpoints.

Both CLoD and BOS are IL2, maybe its in Clod?  With BOS you actually have to hit H to remove it as it comes up in default in the initial paused film when it starts.  I have never seen that in CloD, but maybe its hidden in the code somewhere awaiting activation.
