Title: Making OFP movies
Post by: ProP-JunKie on 29 Sep 2002, 21:12:52

I am playing with my new found ability to make cutscenes. I was wondering if there was anyway to convert to a viewable movie file so I can watch outside of OFP. I've downloaded alot of OFP movies and want to try and make one.... Please help.

 Yeah I had that idea a while back.... of being able to save as a mpg or some such thing... kinda let it slip to the back burner.. ;D

what you need is some sort of direct capture software.... Here's a link to a program I found, but never downloaded the demo version to test it out.....

If you have a digital video camera then just point it at the screen.  Or with two PCs you can use the video card on the second to capture it.  Alternatively look at these software solutions, "Camtasia" is meant to be a fairly good one.

You can always record sound in another app and sync it afterwards. Should be relatively easy if you have a hardsync sound (say a close gunshot) to sync it to.

Just set your windows mixer to record "What U Hear", then use a soundediting app like Wavelab to record the sound.
