Hello. I have been wondering for a long time whenever I see people post videos of their game play at youtube and other sites... how do they do it? How do they capture those videos of their gameplay?

I ruled out holding a video camera since I can't see the plastic edges or case edges of their monitors.

How to do it? Even the RWC 2010 was recorded while everyone is playing.

Is there any built-in video capture "mini" program that is included in the game client that I have been overlooking for a long time?

Search bandicam on google. You can pretty much understand how to use it from there.

If you want to screen record, you pretty much have to play not in fullscreen mode.
Mousefreedom helps that a lot, so get that if you're having troubles using your mouse when not in fullscreen mode.

Xsplit is a safe screen recording/livestream broadcasting software that a friend showed me and it works wonders.
You can even save the videos forever and make highlights, etc.

You even get your own url, so you can send the link to someone and let them watch you play ^ ^

Is this supposed to be sarcasm or do you mean the RO Replay function?
Because last thing isn't really suitable for making videos ;o

No need for an apology XD

Well, you could use the replay function for fastly recording something ingame and later rerecording it from the replay player... maybe... this could may also lead to be helpfull because you can move the camera angle as you please later on ^^

kro has a in-client feature called roreplay... which we'll be getting... eventually... maybe...

tho roreplay alone isnt enough as it only records incoming packets and then plays them thro the client again in a ror file which you can play back from your perspective whenever you want... alotta people use fraps... theres other programs out there tho to use to record with

I just press Print Screen really really fast lots of times.



Just kidding. Fraps and CamStudio are both good (in their own ways). Both have free trials, so I suggest giving them both a go.

Benefit of ROReplay is that you can record the packets quickly and it won't disrupt your gameplay. (Often if you record at high resolution, you get a bit of lag while your computer is writing 60 images per second to your hard drive)
Then you can run the replay back, and record the replay instead of the gameplay.

I use camtasia. Fraps doesn't work for me, and like someone said its better to run in windowed mode.
