Video caputring

So... Ryon asked me to make a video doing combo's with his Goku.
But I can't figure out how fraps works xD

any other recommended software for videos?
Which one do you use?

[ryon]

Fraps.

[Neocide]

fraps is really simple you need to fiddle with your mugen more though.

[raitei]

Yeah I understood how to assign a hotkey, but that didn't work.

any requirements or can anyone tell how to xD

[Neocide]

you have to do more THAN THAT like setup your mugen to run it to begin with, by changing the settings in the mugen.cfg file, I don't remember entirely, but its plugin setup you have to change.

I an old(year 2000) free version of Snag It, 5.0.2 if I recall correctly. Then run Mugen in Windowed Mode 640x480, set recording area to window, and select the mugen screen. CTRL+SHIFT+P to stop recording I think.

In addition I have my Audio Recording set to "What U Hear" instead of Microphone. This is set outside of SnagIt and may not be an available setting depending on your sound card.

Note: Apparently old SnagIt can be a bit slow on Windows Vista/7 64 bit Operating Systems. I haven't tried it out to test this theory since I'm still running Windows XP 32. This may also be because the people reporting the issues were running full screen recording, which is slow regardless.

I didn't have much luck with Fraps myself, I got annoyed trying to set it up for MUGEN and 30 seconds recording time limit, unless I paid for it. At the time I had no job, so I wasn't putting any money into anything Mugen(buying BT3 just to rip voices doesn't count! > ).

I found the problem to be my current Mugen version not supporting Fraps.
It seems that from rc7 on it doesn't support it.

I was lucky to find an older version, rc5 still on my pc xD
So, yeah, it wasn't the fault of Fraps, but Mugen 1.0

But I'll make sure to try out Snag It too.
The free version of Fraps is annoying for the time limit.

[Neocide]

uhhh no, I have 1.0 and fraps works perfectly fine for me.

[raitei]

Then I don't know, you use any version of Mugen 1.0 above rc6?
Or do you use Mugen 1.0, which is now up to date?
There are release candidates 1 to 8 before the actual version 1.0

Because it didn't work for me using Mugen 1.0 and it did with the RC5 I still have.
I just did the needed settings for both.

[Neocide]

I use 1.0 I didn't say the candidates I said 1.0 lol what I had to do,Open Mugen.cfg, in the video mode, for Blitmode put it to pageflip if it isn't already and for render mode put it to openglscreen. that will allow fraps to run for you. Also make sure you display is 640X480 anything bigger will fuck it up.

[raitei]

I see where I messed up.

The mugen which I use for character testing is still rc8 xD
I've got it updated now :B

Thanks anyways.
