What frame rate is best for RA2 matchs for fraps?
« Reply #20 on: August 02, 2009, 12:57:20 AM »
my RA2 had a crash yesterday and then would no longer display FRAPS so I reinstalled it at that was the settings ? (aside from the input button) is that not how you have yours mad ?

Edit: Click I just used those settings I posted before and filmed the latest clash cubes match, averaged 30 FPS the lowest it got was about 26 FPS and highest it got was 35 FPS.

Nothing. It seems.

Well, it can be done. BBEANS has an intro (1 scene), bot introductions (2 scenes), round introductions (3 scenes altogether) and the actual rounds (3 scenes). That adds up to 9 "videos"

You was probably doing it wrong. Or maybe RA2ube isn't so good.

Maybe those are the default settings. Really never noticed. My best settings are mentioned above.^
Input is appreciated. :)

I think 29.97 FPS is the best (NTSC framerate).

Serge, isn't that the NTSC framerate for color tv's. Is there an advantage you know of to use this rate for a comp and monitor? When I saw this rate as an option in FRAPS, I assumed it was for playback on a tv. If you know of one, I'll switch to that framerate.  Let me know, please.

Of course choosing it leads to an advantage when converting the video for playback on a TV, or writing it as a Video DVD. But I think it's the best mainly because it's high enough to make a video non choppy, yet low enough to not make the video too big. That and the TV playback capability made me choose it.

I think it may be capped @ 60fps, but I'd have to check it out using the debug window.

I should be a n00bweight.
