Recording your game
« on: July 16, 2015, 10:42:28 pm »
I just downloaded a trial version of ZD soft screen recorder to have a playback of my current game but I'm not sure what's going on as every time try to record OPXC I get the audio but no picture. Do you have to have certain options enabled on OPXC options menu. Can anyone advise?

I decided to try FRAPS and works a treat except anytime I record it stops after only 30 seconds, am I doing something silly, not set FRAPS up right or is it because I'm using free download (see attached).

It's explained on the 3rd screenshot... look a bit closer ;-)

Btw. if I can humbly recommend one thing, please don't use fraps... anything else is better than fraps.

FRAPS is actually one of the worst programms to record.
It was one of the first thou.

Maybe you try out OBS

Works like a charm.

Thanks to everyone for their advice and suggestions, downloaded OBS and it works like a dream, though I do have to run OBS as an administrator but that's no problem. Should be quite interesting to see where I screw up in pirates.
