Games Cool Shots...

[Maestro]

Greetings ladies and gentlemen.

I had an idea for a new thread. I decided to create one about cool shots in games. Earlier today, I recorded two of my kills in CFS3 and I'm posting them in this thread. Feel free to do the same !

How did I recorded them ? I did it using Fraps. You can get it here :

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on the point of view), the movies you make with that program are of the greatest quality and compressed in AVI format. So they are HUGE ! The one called "CFS3 Ju88 Kill" was 100 MB big. So I had to compress it in Smacker. You can get the program used to watch (and create) them here (and it's totally free) :

But first of all, let's start with a screen shot of my plane on the ground.

Thanks, Evan. I must admit that I bought a 256 MB RAM chipset to boost my computer to 512 MB RAM. It helped a LOT !

It looks easy, but I had to make several tries to do a good shot in "Target View". Sometimes, commands can be confusing in that kind of view.

Nice idea, but we already have a thread like this...

More memory has always been my first course of action. But then, I do alot of processor intensive stuff, so I have 2 GB of RAM in my current workhorse.

...I have 2 GB of RAM in my current workhorse.

I feel so inadequate.

Mine is a wuss, 2.6 Ghz, 512 mb Ram and 128 mb graphics card.

Well, that thread was for screenshots. I made MOVIES.

Talking about movies, do you think you're hot ? Try to do this... 8)

P.S. The movie is compressed in Smacker again, so if you have not installed RAD Video Tool yet, well, do it.

Some PF shots from earlier...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

wow, you really needed water injection to take on all the jap planes but not the 109??

 

[cheddar cheese]

Well the Spit dont have it...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

but you would have used it otherwise

 

[cheddar cheese]

If it did then yeah

 

[Nonskimmer]

Good shots, CC.

 

[cheddar cheese]

Thanks. Its relit my PF fire...I needed a good Jap slaughtering session in a Hellcat, nothing kicks off the evening better

 

[Maestro]

And just for you Maestro, I like to call this the "Clipped wing 109"

Nice screenshot !

However, I'm disapointed that my videos doesn't interrest anyone but two of you.

RAD Video Tool is not that big and the program is totally legal and free. I don't understand why you're not interrested. Even if I compress my movies up to 15% of the original size, I think that the grafics are rather good.

 

[Nonskimmer]

I installed the RAD tool and downloaded your video files, but I get an error when I try to open them. I'll frig around with it a while.

 

[Nonskimmer]

Right, I didn't extract from the zip folder. That was the problem.
It works fine now. Pretty cool.
