Well it's what I've used

You'll find it here. http://www.fraps.com/

The freeware version leaves a tiny web address at the top of the screen, but it bearable.

Kind regards

John

That's what you get, for the spectacular price at 0Â£

"gdidr, gdidr, gdidr ..th..th..thats all folks"

I bet you'll get the full benefit if you pay.

Ah I forgot to mention that. Sadly that's the freeware version... pay shiney silver coins and you get longer time lengths

Seriously though 30 seconds is a long time in a short film, use it as a cut point.

Kind regards

There's also Game Cam as an alternative to Fraps. No idea how they compare though.

An open sourec alternative (but not so easy to set up :sad: ) is Taksi:

I keep meaning to explore this further but haven't started FS2004 for more than a few minutes since Christmas

:shock:
