a load of frap

[3dbasher]

after... even... oh.... hi just wondering if anyone has successfully recorded a a pheonix flight using fraps, i think there's a link to it on here somewhere.
I just can't get it to work properly, i press the key to get it to start recording and the counter should stay red right? then press it again to stop recording if i'm correct?
when i press the to record it does it for that split second of the key stroke thats it... am i doing something wrong? is it setup wrong or can someone suggest another program that'll do the job?
cheers

i dont have pheonix but it sounds to me like you have to hold it down

I did a recording with fraps the other night for a friend on G3 and you should only need to press the F9 key (or whichever key you set it to) and the frames per second in the corner turn red, only when you press the F9 key again does the frames per second counter go back to yellow.

Best check in your setting that something hasnt changed etc, and that its saving to somewhere with enough space to save the file (just guessing here so ignore me if im stating the obvious on the hard drive space etc)

Cool, so does this mean we can get to see some phoenix sim flying vids soon then hint hint lol!

[3dbasher]

yep just gotta figure out how string all of them together as i've only got it to record in 30 second bursts so for a 4 minute flight there's 8 clips then gotta compress it and upload it... anyone have any pointers

hmm slight prob with viewing your recordings Rob,

Ah sorry chaps...
These are just zipped up .rec files - you need the sim to play them back

Hmm - food for thought.

Hi Chaps

I've used Fraps with Reflex and windows movie maker, to to make this file, www.pjmhelis.com/helipage3.html
Jealous Raptor,

Import the fraps file to M M edit and compress it to under 10 meg for email or web display,, which makes it .wmv format,,,easy,

You will also notice I've merged an image of myself with eco 7 using Paint shop Pro onto the Reflex scenery file,

Have'nt got Pheonix but worth a try.

Cheers
Peter
