I like to time things, and then forget when they spawn

Yay 1080P!

Nice!

Tichinde, thanks for the clip. This is very interesting. Could you please
tell me step by step how you recorded your game? You would be very helpful, if you further explain how you put it into
You Tube. If it is not too much too ask please let my know how you
put it into this forum for others to see. Thank you very much in advance.

You mean how it looks like you are actually in-game when set to 1080P?

I have the full version.

You need to have it record at least 60 FPS



I have mine set to 75 FPS.

If you use the default 30 FPS, when you record, your game will drop to 30 FPS, and the game becomes unplayable and it stutters.

I use 75 FPS so that I wont lose any speed at all.

I dont demorec as there is a chance that I will get a critical error or used to get a critical error.

All of my recent vids on Youtube have been live as demorecs cant record voice chat:



(I put in some Epic Motion Blur with the help of Adobe After Effects)

Hard Drive speed does matter when recording. My recording drive is a 1 TB 7200 RPM Western Digital Caviar Black.

Disk Space matters as well as the 1v1 DM Match took up 80 GBs since Fraps records uncompressed footage.

I compressed it using After Effects.

I am not sure which video editors you guys use, but dont use Windows Movie Maker or anything similar to that.

I hear Sony Vegas is good.

I do all of my video editing in After Effects:



(100 GB Project for Unstoppable Lachrimae)

I play UT2004 at 1920x1080, so my videos are all 1920x1080. I exported/rendered it as a .F4V (Flash Video) @ 1920x1080 @ 30 MBPS. This resulted with a 2 GB video file.

I then uploaded the 2 GB file to Youtube and Youtube took care of the rest.

I picked 30 MBPS (big video file size) because I did not want Youtube to butcher my quality. When you upload a video to Youtube, Youtube will run its own video compressor to be able to output at 6 different formats: 240p, 360p, 480p, 720P, 1080P, and "Original" (Greater than 1200P)

This vid of mine was a test run of the "Original" quality setting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9Zv3eqWT1Q

Original takes forever to buffer which is why I am just going to stick with 1920x1080.

Thank you very much for all your info. I clicked on Quote and here I am.
I realise that it is at the moment too advanced for me to understand so I have
to take it one step at a time. If I could save one game and can watch it on
my computer any quality would be fine. I downloaded the "Frap" programm and
go from there. I appreciate that you took the time to explain everything.
Thanks.

It worked. Life is good again.
I installed the Fraps Programm and was able to record a 30 sec.
clip and watched myself hopping along and that is cool and all
thanks to you. I am satisfied with this for now and thank you very much again.
