Screen Capturing Anyone?

[High Hat 314]

I recently considered the idea of making films with SRB2 when I got FRAPS to make films with Halo PC.

I also recently discovered that its virtually impossible (as far as I know) to record anything from SRB2 using FRAPS.

If you're not familiar with FRAPS, its basically a program which captures the footage of games you play.

I'm wondering if anyone knows any programs, or just trick-methods I can use to record what's going on my computer screen so that I might record the footage of SRB2.

Any help would be great, thanks.

Fraps works perfectly with SRB2.

Oh? What am I doing wrong then? Could you give me some instruction, please?

That sir, is the funniest thing I've seen in a while. So simple, so awesome.

I actually made that back when 1.09.0 was out. It used different Super Sonic music (from Viewtiful Joe). Also, the lag you see is from all the bots jumping at once, creating too many 3D sounds. It's like that in the real SRB2. For example, you can make a whole bunch of Tails bots fly at once, and your framerate will drop to 2 FPS.

You need a topic for stuff like this. There just has to be one...

Fraps works in OpenGL mode only, but it does work fine.

Uh, no. If it only worked in OpenGL, I never would bother to use it as much as I tend to do =E

Maybe you have an older version?

 

[Shuffle]

No, Mystic is right. You can only record video in OpenGL.

Hehe. Omega has Altzheimers (sic?) disease.

 

[Omega the Hedgehog]

What the hell. Fine, I'll record a damn video when I get back on my main PC.

 

[Bigboi]

It's always "when I'm on my main PC," isn't it? :P

Dangit, no way to record video's in Software mode? I was hoping I would be able to make an SRB2 movie in the future. Guess not.

 

[Callum]

I recorded in Software mode on my SRB2: TBE videos.

I also have FRAPS and I can record video while in Software mode.
If you want proof, tell me, and I will upload a video in sendspace or Google Video (one can see the difference between OpenGL adn Software)
