I have been trying to make some FAF Movies using FRAPS but I get mothng but stuttery video in either 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768, and in all FPS settings...

I also tried it with sound as well as without and nothing seems to improve it...

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Ok I think I may have figured it out... I unchecked the sync box and now the videos are running with less stutter and less chop...

I believe I will be able to make some high quality videos now to preview the changes coming in FAF...

I will begin creating videos and posthing them soon!

the bad thing about fraps is that it only record in huge avi format :( 1GB for a minute video is bad for my limited hard drive :( and the filesystem avi format use is capped at 4GB/file, resulting in split videos for in a long recording :(

is there any other recording tools that work on win 7 64 and capable of running even if I killed the explorer.exe just to run FA?

I don't know off hand what type of compression Fraps records AVIs with, but you can increase the compression using a free program such as Virtualdub:

http://www.virtualdub.org/

The program can be used for editing too. It can also do audio compression which can be a huge file size saver. Here are some optional plug-ins to increase the file type compatibility of Virtualdub:

Well I am not to worried about the size because you can compress it when you turn it into a WMV file and then of course you can upload it to youtube...

I was trying to get past the stutter and chop, which I successfully accomplished...

Hopefully it will work for my future videos as well as it did for the helo one I posted.
