I've been knifing on Counterstrike Source for quite some time and recording demo's of me knifing 4-6 people on average per round... I was wondering if there is a program that will record the demo's I've made so that I can post them on youtube and maybe eventually start a website... Some say I'm the best knifer, and such, and I'd like to try to claim this title by notoriety.
What programs do you use and such to record videos?

Half-life 2 has a recorder ability already, the problem with it is it only works in half-life 2. So, I was thinking of playing that demo and recording what happens on the screen. Make sense?

Fraps is the best bet. A little checking around and you can find a nice way past that whole demo thing. If not and you grow tired of the 30 second recording limit, try Gamecam. It has no limit, but it leaves a watermark and crap resolution recording.
To use gamecam, you need to have it run steam and then add a -applaunch ### for w/e the number is to launch it. | |
well I've been using fraps and these are the 4 video's I've done so far:

I will try to get game cam to work later tonight. Thanks for the help guys :) | |
I might have missed it, but do the servers you play on have footsteps? Either way, nice knifing. [edit] Ah, I heard it on the third video[/edit]
If you have msn or xfire you can talk to me about registered fraps. msn: [email protected] xfire: sn34k | |
lol nah I just watch people play and then I'll hide somewhere I notice they don't check.
I play on Mystery Meat server, which is 32 players ( there were 16 enemies). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRElJtI65No there's another :) This one was REALLY funny at the time... it was a VIP map on that 32 player server, and hardly anyone had died then bam I knife the VIP and win the round lol... | |
lol haven't seen nothing yet if you think that is ownage... haha :)
Someone's gonna hook me up with a fraps retail version soon.... muahahaha. Then you can see how I play and get in these situations (although I might cut some out, like special moves I do that I don't want people copying) but it's fun as hell making these movies :) | |

They'll figure them out eventually anyway, and this way you get credit for inventing them. =) It's not the end of the world if people start copying your tactics... actually I'd take it as a compliment. | |
Windows Movie Maker would be the tool to use in either case. The program can capture the footage from a camcorder over firewire or usb, and then can also be used to compress it. I'm pretty sure that you can submit the .wmv format to youtube.com.
If I totally missed the point of your post and you're looking for a screen capture program to record the videos in the first place, then I'm not quite sure what the best Windows software is for that.
