Flight Records Gone !!

[Sheriff88]

Since the update yesterday ,when I load up the Flight Records section of the game, after the loading splash screen, I see a black screen, with a progress bar, and  an error window has popped up behind the game  . I press ok, and another similar message pops up, and another, and another. Then the game crashes /freezes and I have to open task manager to exit game. Only flights recorded yesterday after this latest update can be recovered.  I see there were several questions about this in March but did not see any responses. I experienced this once before after an update but after a couple of smaller updates I did not see that problem .So I thought perhaps the developers figured out a way to introduce updates that don't erase the records. Guess  I was wrong. Will this be fixed? If I knew this would happen I could have saved selected records as video files.

Yes sorry to say you are correct in your Statement "Flight Records Gone". This is a common thing with up-dates.

Uggghhh ... is this for real?!?! This NEVER happened in Rise of Flight. There's no way these tracks can be recovered? I thought they are just recorded tracks that replay in whatever graphics settings you are using at the time of playback, not what they were when you recorded them. Am I wrong about this? Why would they ever want to lock your recordings into a format likely to evolve or change over time. This is very disheartening.

I've got good news - despite getting well over a dozen error messages, the tracks from before the update do work. I'm actually kinda paranoid to close my game just in case this is some strange fluke, but there is hope.

So it works, even if you get error messages?! I take it you don't get the black screen then. I have no such luck. Black screen and only ctrl-alt-delete-killing IL-2 gets me out.
