Honolulu Hangar Race Video

Featured Replies

Here's a short video to show the hangar at PHNL that looks ideal for multiplayer hangar races. The video includes a voice-over explaining how the race works. If anyone's interested we're planning a race Sunday 3/25/12 at 1:00 PM US Pacific time. Hope to see you there!http://youtu.be/GgFDAfrtEZ4

I can host it. What I'll do is see who's online just before 1:00, and send an invite out to all of them at once. The ones who are not interested or in the middle of a job can ignore my invite. Anyone interested now knows what to look for at PHNL, so you can go practice a bit if you like. I've found that the RV is the best plane for this, since it is a lot lower in height than a Maule or Stearman.So, I'll keep score and film it all with Fraps, and we'll see how it goes. It should be fun to see how pilots go about avoiding other planes that might be trying to fly through the hangar at the same time they are! :Just Kidding:

Sorry oracle! I sent a general invite to everyone who was online at the time (even if they did not want to race). To join you just click "accept invite". Maybe you came in just after I left the invite screen to enter the game... (edit: it may be that I entered the game a few minutes before 1:00, and if so I apologize.)We'll try again. The races went well. There were several participants, and some good races (and the odd spectacular crash). I recorded about 20 gig worth of Fraps footage, which I'll post highlights of at YouTube a little later. The participants really enjoyed it, so I think this may indeed prove to be a fun way of using Flight. Just need more players. It was fun with just three racers. If we had ten it would be incredible.

Hey FrankFasi, I was actually in the game parked behind you someways to stay out of your camera. I was trying to use Voice or Text chat to communicate but it didn't seem to be working. I think you just confirmed that you didn't see anything I was typing in there.It looked like fun from my seat. :)

Maybe your voice hardware wasnt properly set up. Press the HOME key, then settings, then voice I believe.

Regards,

Tom

Frank, you are good! :Hypnotized: I hope you guys have fun, it certainly looks that way.Best regards.Luis

To quote Minnesota Fats: "Practice, practice, practice" :Straight Face:Okay, here's a link to some footage from the first races. Boring parts have been edited out:http://youtu.be/VDz91Lp-F04

Look like I need to grow a pair, too many missed attempts.

I want smoke trails!!!

In the difficult to find tutorials section of this forum, there's info on how to unlock a "Screenshot" camera that would be perfect for filming this. It's like the Cockpit view, but you can use the middle mouse button to move the POV all over outside of the aircraft, so you could park your camera over at the hangar without having to get out of your plane and walk there.
