Using Fraps for IL2 videos

[mechanic]

could someone explain to me what fraps is? or any other way of formating IL2 tracks into WMM compatible files.

thanks

get FRAPS 2.x and you are set to run at 1024 X 768,

Fraps is a "sort of frame grabber" on steroids it will allow you to capture the output from screen too an AVI format from there you can use a number of software applications to rework the file and add sound etc... MS moviemaker works very well & it's easy to use.

thanks! i got it and worked it out.

one other problem: When i make a film in movie maker, if the overall file size gets over about 40 MB, the film vier crashes and does not respond almost instantly. i cannot save the files to my HD and i cannot even watch them in the movie maker.

anyone else have this problem?

is there a maximum file size for a movie?

thanks
