Video Capture software?

[Mockery]

So we want to make a trailer for the upcoming game and I need to capture some of the gameplay footage itself but don't have any video capture software, nor have I ever used any. Can you guys recommend any software (preferably free) that works really well?

uh... I always used fraps before I had to get a macbook and was therefore fucked. Not sure if the internet at large approves of fraps, though

fraps is good but you gotta get the registered version or it's pretty limited :(

Ok, the registration fee isn't too pricey, so I can deal with that. But just to confirm, this program can capture anything you do on your computer, not just PC games, right?

fraps only captures stuff that uses d3d ( i think :< ) for desktop capturing the only thing that's worked well for me is camtasia studio, there may be a better solution somewhere.

http://camstudio.org/ you can try this open source one cuz its free, i don't know how well it does for games

Yeh, I need something that can capture flash games.

edit: I'll check out camstudio

[Chojin]

fraps will capture flash games if they're run in fullscreen

fraps da best

Actually, CamStudio did the trick. Thanks for the tip, Mew :O
