September 20, 200519 yr Fraps. what he said this is only really to be used to playback demos, which most games support the recording of. (Sorry if this is a bit obvious, but you didnt specify)
September 20, 200519 yr For Half Life-based games, it's better to record a demo using the "record" command when you're playing, as Fraps will rape your system when it's dumping raw AVI data to your drive. When you're done, you can playback the demo and set your max fps via the console to whatever you want to record at, and either use fraps or dump a bitmap each frame then merge them at the end. Then edit and encode.
September 21, 200519 yr Author thanks I am already using fraps and was looking for a free recorder but it appears my friend has somethign that will work perfect. but I will have to try the last suggestion.
September 21, 200519 yr I believe the command to dump a bitmap for each frame is "startmovie" if you wanted to try that way. You'll have to find a program that can merge a bitmap sequence. I can't remember the name of the one I used a while back, but I'm sure you could easily google for "half life video tutorials" or something.
