Recording Gameplay (Help!)
#1
Hey guys!

I have a question for everyone. Whats the best screen recorder that I can use while playing AC?  That wont completely butcher my fps? I wanna start recording me gameplay. Although you might say why not record from a demo? I would like to be able to show my weapon and ammo and health and ect.

So I'm reaching out to the community whats the best program I can use?

Requirements:

Must be a Mac program

Prices doesn't matter all that matter is quality! (and no lag)

Keep Fraggin'

Fraps is a pretty good program to record your gameplay.

Go to fraps.com
Dam never mind what I said, fraps only works on windows

You'll want to turn down your resolution a bit, like so:

Unfortunately, I used Microsoft Expression Encoder Screen Capture for that.

Thanks for the replies :)

I found a solution. Screen Flow 2 for Mac.

Private message me if you want a cracked copy of it. I have one.

Okay, fine. You found some nice software that does what you want it to do. I won't blame you for trying a pirated copy first to see if it actually works. Now, you have seen it does. Wouldn't it be good to pay for that working product now? But oh no, you don't. Instead, you offer everyone those pirated copies. That practice will really motivate hard-working software developers to write good software, right? Guess what: one day, there won't be any software left to pirate.

EDIT: Here. Full version costs 99$, trial version available. If you think it's not worth the money, don't use it. 'nuff said.

If you got keylogged than you can get caught for that. Go on, and get caught. ^^ maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not this year, but one time, you will be screwed. ^^

Bestcat I'm on a Mac and I have AV and shit don't worry. Also I didn't post a link? Idk :P ...


After test I capped 50 fps average. Thats decent I assume, to the extent I don't have lag ingame or in video and its playable

I was going to argue that freeware is the way to go, but... Is there a such thing as freeware for Macs?
mmm, Macinto$h.

i have just got fraps and it utterly shagged my FPS. no propper montage for me!

Fraps doesn't work well with AC , self experience. It drops your fps to 100 and keeps oscilating between 20-100, so its impossible to record with those screen lags.

I My fps dropped with fraps from 100 fps to 1-2fps O.o

In my experience there's always some drop in FPS and I usually find it safer to use a maxfps setting close to my target-fps (for the released video), so something like maxfps 30 or maxfps 25 - it should even out the oscillations.
glc is my favourite screen-capture tool, since it captures sound quite well too - it's open-source and it seems to have been packaged (at the time of writing this) for gentoo and arch .. but it's well worth the effort of compiling yourself IMHO. HowtoInstall@glc

Also I am not quiet that interested in sound quality because I'm going to be replacing it with a song most likely. But, if I do need to insert speech I could just use iMovie or Adobe After Effects. I'm just using the program to make montages and tutorials ect. But, also I am making videos to practice video editing.

This is a video I made edditing in iMovie (Nothing fancy).

Also a little intro I made in Adobe After Effects (The first thing I ever made in it) :P

You're spouting propaganda, I don't care if you're right or wrong. Just leave it in offtopic forums and let the mods handle anyone actually breaking the rules.

Sheesh. I could sit all day on a torrent client and write down IP addresses and generate enough revenue with the "legal blackmail" to follow (sending "pay up or you're gonna get a lawsuit" letters) that I would never have to work another day for the next 10 years. /ridiculous

After all, it wasn't me who offered everyone cracked copies.

And what exactly does that have to do with the fact that he is illegaly using software he didn't pay for? FYI, you don't have to be a P2P blackmail lawyer to be against illegal file sharing.

@ tempest ^^ lol I love you

@DEKiMA Who are you to say those words to tempest. Who the fuck are you? Also maybe we should leave you in the off topic? This seems quite on topic and its related to AC.

Also when I record AC I hide my desktop and I don't play fullscreen. Lmao at the rapid screenshot script.

Woah, calm down Revert. There really is no need for that language.

Back on topic though...

What I do is play windowed. Pick a screen size where the whole game screen shows up. Once you finish in Screenflow you can crop it.
