Prometheus

A while ago, I started recording myself when flying in DOSbox (Ctrl+Alt+F5). I want to make a habit out of doing this every time I fly a mission (although I've forgotten it a couple of times), and then afterwards, especially in the case of a failed mission, watch the replay and analyze what went wrong.
Also I can upload some of these videos to Youtube, and until now I already uploaded three:
1. A succesful run of Port Hedland 2
2. A failed attempt at Port Hedland 3
3. The first mission of Wing Commander 2, finished with unusal circumstances.
You can watch them here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9821B19B8C433B5F
I might add more in the future.
Maybe some people can learn from these videos. And maybe I can learn from people commenting on these videos. If you play WC1 and WC2 these days, maybe you could record your flying too, upload it and then share them here in this thread.
Another point in this is that I also hope to catch some glitches on video, so we can have a little "glitch collection" here. I remember some strange occurences, for example a Kilrathi Ace turning invisible (not cloaked!), or these spontaneously exploding Salthi I talked about in another thread. In the "Port Hedland 3" video above you can already see a little glitch during the briefing (the map isn't displayed quite right)... So if we just "keep the camera rolling" all the time, we might hopefully catch these occurences on file. Of course you can always delete video files if they contain nothing to write home about.
