MrPhil 58 Posted July 11, 2011 Hello this is my call for help. You see, I have a very fun game (Sins of a solar empire) with a very fun mod (Sins of a galactic empire). Problem is this mod makes me get a load of minidump issues (a kind of background error that freezes the game). I would like to record the issue to show-it to the modder in charge, but the only problem I know that does that is FRAPS, which needs to be paid. So I ask you folks, is there a program with similar properties that could do the job? One that would be free, if at all possible... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not freeware per se, but you can record 10 minutes at a time for free, with a watermark at the top. Hope this helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hassat Hunter 571 Posted July 11, 2011 You can use FRAPS for free, similar restrictions (watermark on top, time limit). But the files are huge (too, not that that's just for the free version), wouldn't give/post them without using some tool to lessen their size. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Plastic Posted July 11, 2011 The free FRAPS time limit is 30 seconds I thought. Bandicam has a whopping 10 minute limit for free. I can live with the watermark. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrPhil 58 Posted July 11, 2011 Bandicam it'll be then. Too bad there aint any opensource program ready and able out there, don't you think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kate The Bionic Uterus 12 Posted November 16, 2012 Bandicam it'll be then. Too bad there aint any opensource program ready and able out there, don't you think? Um... there is. In fact there are many. Here is one but there are some better ones out there. This one you need to get the extra codex yourself. I still find fraps works better but for recording video my friends use this all the time and they love it. http://sourceforge.net/projects/taksi/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
