Fraps

Rottening · #1 01-02-2011, 02:55 PM

I must be missing something with Fraps. The software seems simple enough, but I just can't get it to work well with me.

I play CoD Black Ops on a lot of Nuketown 24/7 TDM Chicago servers. I'm a knifer (hate all you want, but if I can go 50-5 every game, I'm going to.) FPS is a big deal to me, and I have a beast of a system. 60FPS max graphics when I am playing normally, and any slowdown means less kills and more deaths.

I want to run fraps and upload to YouTube to prove that I am 1. not hacking and 2. that it takes skill to play the way I play.

Whenever I run fraps at 60FPS, it is choppy as hell, and I don't play as well as I am capable. Same thing when I switch it to 30FPS.

I'm just curious what I can do to record my games without noticing that I am. Is it even possible?

turn your graphics settings in the game way down

Well that seems "normal" with FRAPS. But what you could do is just make the video from an external Cam ? Would be an even better proof then I guess, when it can be seen how you actually play the game.

Well I know that, but as I stated earlier, any drop in FPS/Graphics quality and I usually start playing like shit.

I did assume this is normal and there's no good way of doing this without knocking my shit down. I guess I was just hoping for something less than obvious that I was missing.

Maybe I will go the external camera route.

Does your 'beast' of a system just mean badass MB/memory/processor/vid card(s), or do you have a fast Hard drive setup?

SSD.

I'm a hardware nerd.

You could try using a program called "WeGame", I'm sure it has support for BO's by now.
