As with the title above, this is a project to compile videos of Malaysian Battlefield Community in action. How would you ask? Just by recording your gameplay and submitting the link here!
If you are wondering how to record your gameplay video, just do as below
You need:
- FRAPS. Alternatively you can also use MSI's Afterburner built in video recorder, Predator
- Make sure you have a decent graphic card that can go 60FPS
- A LOT of Hard disk drive space
- Video converter (Virtual Dub is a free but not really easy software. It's your choice on what to use)
Depending on your graphic card, you need to do two things
- If your graphic card can do 60FPS easily on high/Ultra, set everything to low and keep your current resolution (GTX 580/GTX570/HD6950/HD6990)
- If your graphic card can do 60FPS on Medium, set everything to low and HALF your resolution OR use windowed mode (GTX 560 Ti/GTX480/HD6870/HD6850)
- If your graphic card can only do 60FPS on low, pray that there is no sudden lag happening during your recording (Any card before 2010)
Why do we need to do the above?
FRAPS takes a lot of computer resources during recording, and WILL drop down your FPS. To counter this we run the game to get a really high number of FPS so during recording the FPS hit won't hinder the gameplay itself. What the good of recording your gameplay if you can't play smoothly right?
What kind of video do I need to record?
Anything! It can be that awesome kill that you did that you wanted to show to everyone, or funny moment that happens 1 in a million. One way to make sure is to record your WHOLE game thus you won't miss that crucial moment
Okay, I recorded the video. What Do?
Convert it. FRAPS record video in uncompress AVI, thus the files will be HUGE (a normal full HD FRAPS video are usually 30~50seconds per 4GB of file). As said above, you can use softwares like Virtual Dub that is free, but it's up to you how to convert it. If you can, use H264 codec to maintain video quality in tandem with low file size.
Then?
Upload it, and post the link here. You can upload the video to youtube, but preferable upload it to an FTP somewhere so we can get the uncoverted video.
And that's it. Also am finding a video editor as well for this project. If you are interested, please PM me.
LET THE RECORDING BEGIN!
