Im trying to make a video for Battle Of The Teams
but... i have no idea what im doing
What resolution do you set LFS?
full screen or windowed?
Fraps recording, full or half size?
So once i have those clips do i import them into Vegas and edit it (editing is all i know how to do)
once the video is finished how do i save it and compress it and which which codec divx or xvid?
From the very little i have done, you want to limit LFS to 30fps, and set fraps to 30fps full screen.
As far as the compression, well you want xvid\divx use something like virtualdub which is an excellent coder. it also does sound, which you will probably want mp3.
The res you set lfs at doesnt really make a difference, i would just change it to what your computer can handle. Make sure you have AA and AAF on to full or close to it.
I'm pretty keen on learning the tricks of capturing LFS video too! dwayno and I are currently doing some tests but any guidance from experienced LFS capturers would be most valuable
i tried that Little tutorial Arrow, and all i managed to get was 6fps from Fraps under recording no matter what resolution. NR2003 records at a strong 30fps when at 1920x1200x32 and all details max. Not sure as to why LFS sucks tho computer is fast enough

Chaz suggested to turn off the AA and AF in your video card settings, and that reducing the resolution (when editing) will take care of most of the jagged lines. Perhaps give that a go Neil

that was the beauty of the capture tools made for GPL, in single step mode the game would go only as fast as it could capture, so you'd end up with a perfectly smooth video file. It's a shame there hasn't been anything made like that so far for LFS. That and not being able to rewind a replay is the biggest issues with LFS movie making. I've captured a few clips and if you FF too fast and miss your spot you feel like pulling your hair out

My point is that you should turn off your AA and AF settings, and that to counter the jagged lines you'll invariably find as a result of turning off AA and AF, you just need to reduce the resolution WHEN EDITING. IE: NOT in LFS!!
My Problem is when i record the video in LFS i get about 6fps. it has nothing to do with the editing part. so what help am i going to get from changing the resolution in the editing part when i cant even get a decent video to edit?

Have you tried turning off the AA and AF??? How convenient that you keep ignoring that part!!!

Ok, well it's good that you have admitted your own stupidity, however I fail to see what part of my statement was indeed stupid. Correct me if I'm wrong, please. Though considering how this is going, perhaps I should suggest that you start digging up??
