I want to record some of my game play for reference and to see how I can improve. Prehaps I will put some on Youtube for friends to watch. What do you think is a better method for recording... A) A ingame or game recording programme B) A video camera
dont use FRAPS or at least not at first. if you are playing TF2 and most other games, they support an in engine demo recording which lets you record the entire match and you cant play it back like a replay from any angle and it only takes like 20mb to record an hour of gameplay! then once you have done that, get the angles you want or just your same fps view and record with FRAPS. that way you want have FRAPS slowing you down during your initial gameplay.
[QUOTE="RedxSniper"]Never tried it out yet, but since i don't want to buy fraps, im going to use the xfire built in one. Unless it's bad. Not sure.topsemag55
You don't have to buy it. They offer a Free Version as well as the Full Version.
The free version you can only record like what 60secs? before it stops? no i think its like 30 secs.

The Full Version of Fraps is only $37. That's cheaper than some new games that go for $50 up to $99 (for collector's editions). That's less than 6 hours of working if you make minimum wage. It isn't like your buying AutoCAD for hundreds of dollars: $37 is very reasonable.

To make videos of yourself playing video games? Sure that's worth it for most people.. /sarcasm

And xfire works fine for me, so i dont see any reason to spend $37 when what i use now works perfectly fine.

If you can't afford it, then don't buy it. simple.
I record my gameplay in my brain. If I screw up on something, I remember not to do it again and I improve. I personally don't need a video to watch of how I play and screw up to help fix things....
But if you want to record your games, I suppose the only program I know of is FRAPS. I have never used it, so I don't know if it's good or not. I'm sure there are plenty of other programs out there that can record your gameplay, but FRAPS is the only one I know about.

Not on my list of priorities, don't plan on paying for it...
