In the Control Settings of the game there's an option to record a video CTL + F6.I tried doing it but without any results.I couldn't find trace of a video recording.Have any of you guys tried it?How does it work and where do you find the video recorded?

As I've understood what should be done:
1. Activate mode "free cam"
2. Press shift+F6 to start video record
3. Press shift+F7 to end video record

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to start video record Sad

I haven't tried the downloaded mod yet. But from the description, it doesn't appear to be a IL-2 style 'flight-recorder'. It's more like ...FRAPS....  Smiley 

Am I missing something here, what's the advantage to that  Huh? compared to the actual FRAPS program?

Kyth ; the adavntage of the in-video making seems that you can do it from inside the game and keep the vid in your game files.I don't have fraps so no idea whether there's any adavntage over it or not...I'll try to download fraps and install it.

It's already possible in Fraps to record the game as a video; however this is strictly 'what you see is what you get'. 
Unlike the flight recorder in IL-2 which you can review and play back from different angles to figure out who did what.

BTW I have downloaded, installed and used fraps but the clips seem to last only 30 seconds each.Any way to extend the duration?

Get the full version!

Speaking of fps does anybody know why is Steel Fury limited to a max 60 fps???I have never been able to cross that threshold except for a few seconds at 61 or so????Is this due to the configuration of the game?

60 fps? I barely get more than 25 lol.

Well could it be limited to your monitor refresh rate?

No rends I think in the read me that comes with the installtuion disc it specifically mentions that the fps are limited to 60 by default.No idea why?May be it has to do with the fact that the game, apparently,cannnot take advantage of multi core cpus....

I usually get 30 to 40 fps average but wiht a failry powerful card.Otherwise SF is fairly fps hungry for such a simple game...
