12/8 Only: Free Game Recorder (Fraps Alternative)

[VAN1SH1NG]

Giveaway of the Day 12/8/2011 - PlayClaw 2.1.0

"Take still and video snapshots of 3D games without sacrificing performance. PlayClaw operates completely in background and makes full use of your CPU’s multi-core abilities to record quality action videos of your 3D games without affecting the gameplay or reducing frame rate."

Downloaded it and briefly tried it out with Altitude. Good results with some settings and some issue with others. If you want to record Altitude but don't want to pay for Fraps you might give this a shot. You will probably need to test out different settings and see what works best for you.

I think this was designed for 3D so I don't know if that might be an issue here, but it seems to struggle recording at my screen resolution (1920x1200). If I set it to record at half-size it works well though and recording Altitude at lower resolutions seems to work great (tried 1280x720).
