In my mind I still have these great designs for little AH action videos, with excellent camera angles and editing, but running fraps while flying (live) lately has really brought to mind how much of the gameplay you lose on the film viewer.
Text buffer is gone (including kill messages, bomb hit messages, etc), the clipboard, E6B, exact view angles (custom positions) blackouts, and a bunch of other stuff is missing.
Do you AH film makers miss this? Or do you prefer the camera angle control and the "pure" (i.e. "clean") cockpit witout buffers and clutter to create your angles?
I'm a bit torn. I think each might have its potential. I suppose the best combination would be to include both, but I wonder what the impact is recording film and recording FRAPS at the same time live?
Has anybody combined film viewer angles/cameras with internal clips using FRAPS? Just curious.
