I used to have this game on my Spectrum +2 many years ago. It had the best title music of any Speccy game I can remember. It sounds a bit basic at first, but if you leave it for a bit it gets really good (well for an 8 bit computer anyway). Any chance you could post a vid of it...?

[SPINNYFUCK]

There is no problem with that request! Coming up right now.

No. It just comes from experience which you will learn. Just mess around and see what you can do. Sometimes you think your recording for ages and your not. The recording depends. Some games are split up into segments on moviemaker. You can edit clips for longer games. If it's a single clip drag it to the storyboard and click on timeline and you can drag the clip the shorten it

Thanks Spinny. Do you keep a stopwatch for how long you are recording for? To make sure it's under 10 mins?

[SPINNYFUCK]

10 minute video takes about 32 minutes to save to your computer. Dont leave spectaculator recording and forget about. Thats what I used to do. You end up with loads of drive space being taken up.

After you finish recording your gameplay go back into spectaculator control and go to movie and click on stop before you exit. Converting to wmv via movie maker is fine its just compressing it. This is the version you want to upload. I made a folder called youtubevids on drive d which I save the moviemaker wmv to. You can edit etc using moviemaker but if you havn't used it before it can be strange. 1st rule start recording gameplay for say 5 minutes stop recording and import to moviemaker.

I've got a short record of my game on Spectaculator and put it onto Movie Maker. Now saving it via Movie maker and it says 70 minutes. Is this normal? it seems to be converting it to wmv.

[SPINNYFUCK]

You'll soon get used to Spectaculator. It pretty user-friendly. It took me a few goes to learn it.

Haven't upload yet! Thanks! Can wait. My creation on you tube! I'm messing with Speculator now. getting the hang of it.

Just put up a short version of Conman. If you want it removed just say. It was only meant to be a laugh.
