The You Game!

[Shrooblord]

< just reread this thread. Good times.

It wouldn't be funny if you were a mod. It'd be funny if I was a mod, though.

The irony!

Is this for PC?

Yes, but unfortunately, the only program that's free, good enough and friendly enough to work on XP (unlike OpenBroadcaster and others), CamStudio, isn't typically designed to work well with games - it's supposed to be used for Desktop recordings for file tutorials and such. However, after much fiddling with settings and codecs, < has gotten the right video quality < wanted, but now < has to face solving the desynch and/or crashing program. The thing is it crashes right as it's saving the file, so...


@Ad:
Only a country as humorous as Canada can call their coins Toons and Loons and get away with it.

Ah < sees, hopefully ^ will find a means of solving it, < is on Win 7, and it does have its benefits by the looks of it.
< is doing something < should've done a long time ago, backing up.

[ikke471]

< is pissed
< tried to add €25 to his steam account... the money is gone and was not added to <'s account

< suggest ^ to contact the support right now!

< allready did but did not get a reply yet..
< is swearing like someone who swears a lot

< loved that day XD

< is far too stinking hot here

< suggests ^ and Master to use Fraps, even if not free. Problem with Fraps is the videos registered are not compressed yet : they actually take A LOT of space.

Finally, free recording programs are all shit : you will have to pay if you want something good on PCs.

Who pays for software?

I'd actually suggest Bandicam over FRAPS. There are far more options, and it serves a very similar purpose, yielding very similar results.

Who pays for software?

People who prefer to pay. But you can also provide yourself not free softwares legally and don't pay for them. For example, I got a free pro W7 64-bit version because of the partnership of my school with Microsoft. Considering I'm only paying 600 € per year to study in it, and that it is not in order to pay softwares, I'm pretty happy with this.

This guy knows best things XD
I have huge Audio FRAPS issue since I cannot split my voice and game sound. I need to split them since then I can edit in Camtasia and make my voice louder then Game audio. Bandicam has audio split option so I use Bandicam sometimes and I also like DXtory so it depends. Dxtory does not record dosbox so Bandicam is best choice for that. I find FRAPS to be overrated as hell with lack of awesome features that Bandicam and DXTory have (no disrespect to FRAPS users)

< is happy with paying for what < can afford. One of the only expensive pieces of software < has actually paid for is Komplete 8 Ultimate, and that's because it was a real landmark for <. While < thinks it's unfair for people in the lower-class to have to work so ridiculously hard to get something like that and the upper-class can obtain it with barely any effort, < thinks that if people were rewarded simply based on effort alone, everything would become far too balanced, resulting in the utter boredom of life. < kind of likes the way the world works; pirating is illegal, but it's often done for a just cause. If it were legal, too many people would do it, so it remaining illegal sort of levels out the playing field.

It's 8:00 AM, and < still hasn't slept.

< Been keeping an eye on things on ebay lately.

< already knew this but thanks ^ to make < remember it.

< doesn't think < completely understands what ^ wants to mean with this.

[Master]

< is trying to get 100% in Metroid Zero Mission, bloody shinespark puzzles are so convoluted.

< was at the coders dojo up in Edinburgh today, it was the first meeting so it was pretty much an introduction to the course and a look at basic programming through google blockly, as < said, very basic, but < enjoyed it all the same.

< was at the coders dojo up in Edinburgh today.

What?
< says it's not an actual place, its just an event called the coders dojo (though, the host pronounced it 'cododojo') and as < said, it was very basic stuff today like Google Blockly
< did enjoy it, though < will need to borrow a laptop every time < goes though, as they don't generally provide them.

[Reese Riverson]

< Would be playing games right now but < wishes not to forget about a couple of items on ebay.

[Master]

This Google Blocky looks a bit like that Scratch program < dabbled in once.

[Shrooblord]

< suggests ^ and Master to use Fraps, even if not free. Problem with Fraps is the videos registered are not compressed yet : they actually take A LOT of space.

< used FRAPS before, but got filesizes of 4GB on videos of rougly thirty to fourty minutes. Also, FRAPS hogs your computer's resources like a bitch. < was looking for something not too intensive on the ol' CPU while still worth using (like don't skip every 2 frames because you suck ).

I'd actually suggest Bandicam over FRAPS. There are far more options, and it serves a very similar purpose, yielding very similar results.

< agrees that Bandicam is a good option. However, < has stopped <'s habbit of making use of piracy a long time ago and < wants to pay for things if < needs to - but more so, < wants to not pay for things if < doesn't have to.
