FRAPS quality/lag issues
So, I just finished building a new computer with the following specs
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.4 GHz) 2gig Ram Gforce 8800 GTS 640 MB PCI-E GPU 500 gig SATA Drive ...yet I get in game lag when recording with fraps (even at low fps / half screen settings). I usually run at 55-60 frames with all settings maxed everywhere in game, yet am having problems getting fraps to work correctly any tips? |

How much fps are you recording at? It's best to set it to 30 frames per second.

Your FPS is lower than it should be with that card.
Check the nvidia control panel if you've got antialiasing turned up to 16x or some such. |

updated fraps to 2.8.2+ ?
saving the fraps-files on a internal local hard drive (no external!!)? playing in windowed mode (bad idea for frapsing) or fullscreeen ? |

However, I do write to one internal hard drive (friend told me it should be ok with a SATA hard drive) Would it help to throw another hard drive in the box and write fraps to that one? |

I have a 500gb sata hdd too, it can take more than 60 fps of 1280x1024 so no that shouldnt matter.
I'd like to know what resolution youre playing at, and ask that you upload a test clip for me to look at. Thank you edit: test clip in full screen please, even if it lags. Last edited by Thiras : 07-15-2007 at 09:13 PM. |
