just kidding bro, thanks for sharing.
Edit: I just started looking into recording with fraps again.. it was cutting off every 30 seconds for me last night but I fixed that today so I should be able to post up a video after I get some gameplay footage
The best way to record (in terms of quality and flexibility, but more time consuming) is to use the mohaa.exe that allows recording with the following commands in three simple steps:
/record "FILENAME" (Filename is the name of the dm3 that will be created). For instance:
/record ogbubba1
/stoprecord (this will stop recording)
/playdemo "FILENAME" (Filename is the name of the dm3 that you want to reproduce). For instance:
/playdemo ogbubba1
Note: You don't need the "/".
Once you are watching your own demo, you can either use fraps to record the video (or another capturing software), or use the following command to extract still frames that can be later stitched into a video file using a video editor. The advantage of doing so is that you can set the graphics as high as you want, and also specify any frame rate you want, and will still get every single frame. That allows producing high quality videos. The disadvantage is that you lose sound, which you could anyway overlay if you wanted (more extra work though). The command is:
/cl_avidemo "FPSRATE" (where FPSRATE is how many frames per second you want to export). For instance (right after executing /playdemo ogbubba1):
/cl_avidemo 30 (or 60 if you later want to do very high rate slow motions).
/cl_avidemo 0 (to stop exporting frames, if I remember correctly).
One shortcoming of the modified mohaa.exe for recording is that it does not allow to forward or rewind or pause. However, I modified that already-modified mohaa.exe, and added forwarding and rewinding capabilities, which is useful if you want to record by round.
