Using EZdok to create flight cinematics

[slantalpha 0]

I have EZdok 2, and I want to create a cinematic of my flight. I've seen YouTube videos where they mostly show other views of the aircraft besides the cockpit.

Do people usually record the entire flight in one shot, rotating through the cameras as necessary? I think it would be hard to actually fly the plane and not hit anything on the runway while in the EZdok "over-the-wing" camera view.

I'm wondering if I can use EZdok to "record" the path of the in-game flight, and then replay the flight, and use the different EZdok cameras to create the cinematics? I have a hard time believing that people can press the record button, and then switch through the different cameras and fly the plane at the same time without crashing into anything.

good question!

I know Chaseplane has a Replay feauture which you can use for that exact purpose! Although flap and gear animations are still not there.

Not sure about EzDok though.

Ezdok 2 has no built-in flight recording function. I myself use the Prepar3D built-in function "Instant replay" to watch the last minutes of the flight after landing. But in Ezdok 2 has a function "Observer", which allows you to get interesting views from the outside of the aircraft and manage them as a cameraman.
