Is there any alternative to fraps?
I am currently using fraps, but I am looking for something that doesn't save video's in massave file sizes, which causing glitches when I edit them together, preferably one you can chose the save file type, that records longer than 30 seconds, is freeware, records the full screen and uses reprogrammable hotkeys.
Is there anything that is suitable that should work with Railworks 3, Farming Simulator 2011, etc?

There is a freeware prog that does much the same, but I don't have it installed at present so cannot tell you the name. Try a google search.

If I make sense 50% of the time, that's good; but if I make sense 100% of the time....you should seek professional help.

I could only find ones like hypercam that only recorded a small area, and couldn't be started/stopped remotley (in game using hotkeys)

Re: Is there any alternative to fraps?
I just tried it, when it has finished recording it shows an error, and just saves as 2 wav files that don't work? Is there either any way of making it work or something that works?

Re: Is there any alternative to fraps?
I have now also tried screencast-o-matic which does not respond to hotkeys whilst in game. Is there any other aternative?

Saw bandicam mentioned somewhere else once.
Unregistered version has a 10min time limit and watermark.

Re: Is there any alternative to fraps?
After using bandicam for a while the FPS counter does not display, I have relaunced it and reinstalled it and nothing happens, how do I get it to work?
