Capturing in-game action
I'd like to capture some in-game missions in a space simulator while I'm playing them on my comp and then upload the movie to youtube for other fans to see.
What program should I use for this?
If possible, it has to be mild in the processor / memory draining compartment because I have an older comp...

FRAPS! It is an free program which you download from WWW. It alows you to take Pic's,Movies and some other thing with your assinged button, which is loadded into your assinged folder!
Re: Capturing in-game action
Fraps is the best choice, but bear in mind that the unregistered version only allows low quality (1280x760 iirc) videos up to 30 seconds long (although there's nothing to stop you recording another video once the first one stops)

Never had much trouble with it.Originally Posted by x-dANGEr
The key to using it is to first record a demo of the action (if the game allows), especially if it is an online game, as this stops fraps having an adverse affect on your performance.
You can then later load up that demo and record the video from it.

I've downloaded two programs, GameCam and Taksi but haven't installed them (these don't record the sound IIRC).
