How does one enable cockpits when viewing a replay?

Hello!

I’ve seen videos from other air sim players where the cockpit is visible, and presumably it is a recording of a replay.

When I’ve tried to record some of my air sim kills, all I’ve had available was the virtual cockpit (using the P51C).

Am I missing an option by chance?

Thanks

Check this setting in the “Options” menu.

Also make sure you are using a client that includes cockpits.

Ah, had expected it to be an option in the replay itself.

Thanks!

There used to be a bug where the cockpit would sometimes still not show even with that setting on. It seemed random, so if you still get a missing cockpit sometimes it may just be that. (Just an FYI – hopefully it got fixed)

I think that still is a thing, sadly. Watched a replay a week or so ago, and still had cockpits only part of the time.

What’s also an issue is that sometimes custom camos you have applied are shown, sometimes not. As I mainly use replays for screenshots, that’s really annoying.
