Fraps Tutorial (game recording, screenshots, benchmarking)

Fraps is one of the most popular game recording programs(records only open GL and activeX applications . If you are gonna use it, first make shure that your PC meets the minimmum system requirements. If you are going to post fraps videos on the net you will need to compress them because they are ''VERRY'' big (if you don't have any video compressing programs, Windows Movie Maker will do just fine).

******As discovered by user ''guitarinhishand'', Fraps apparently doesn't work for half life/ garrys mod!! If you find the opposite, let guitarinhishand know, and let me know so I can remove this entry!*****

COMMENTS & RATINGS CLOSED (as of January 11th 2009):
Hey people! I have to say that I'm sorry but I had to disable the comments and ratings options for this video
because of the big number of questions you guys had about Fraps and it's features and problems.
The thing is that I'm no expert for this program and I haven't been using it myself for a great deal of time.
Fairly everything I know about Fraps, I said in the video, but people are continuously coming in
with their questions about certain problems that they are having with this program, that I just can't answer.
For all you Fraps users in need of help , the best advice I can give you is to carefully read the help
pages because you will get a great deal of answers there. If that doesn't help out try checking the
official Fraps web page for FAQ-s or simply try googleing for the answer.
One more time, I'm sorry for the situation and I wish you all the best.
