Fraps Strikes Back!

[Charl]

I've been less than happy with the various FRAPS "Updates" in the last year or so, and was contemplating abandoning it for the Recorder Module Renderer.
I use it in FS9, and possibly the development focus was elsewhere.
Now V3.2.8 is out, and really behaves itself.
Very few induced stutters, no dropped frames that I could see, be interesting to hear if this works well in other games software too.
This one I will keep in a special box...

I've had a bit of a love-hate relationship with FRAPS. I still have a mega issue with it using an old AVI codec that limits the size of the file to 4Gb ... and found Playclaw to be a better option for the longer recordings.

That said, FRAPS seems to be "going somewhere" now. I've tried the video renderer beta (no sound) and it's very smooth.
