How to get FPS to show in Underground?? Is there a command?

I'm just experimenting with running 4xAA and 16xAF and it seems to run a little differently in some turns so I want to know what my FPS is dropping down to.

Thx

Download FRAPS from fraps.com.

Doesn't that cost money though? Any other option?

fraps is free... did you even look at the website?

Ya, it's like $30 and the demo was just limitted and said nothign about showing fps.

I have to agree with _I3ulNlouT_, didn't you even look GOOD on the site?

I just copied understanding from FRAPS website:

Fraps 1.9D

The last free version of Fraps with no limitations. It may not look pretty but it gets the job done. Can capture videos up to 640x480 without sound.

Requires a Pentium 2 or later processor
Supports Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K/XP
Supports most graphics cards
Download FRAPS19D.EXE (72k)

And yes, fraps shows your FPS.

fraps is great for showing fps and taking screens, but for in-game-movie-capture, it's not very good i think..

And for that point I have to agree with you

any good programs for movie-capturing in-game? anyone?

I tried fraps and SnagIT for video capturing but they really slow down the game even at the lowest resolution, if anyone knows of a better program you're welcome to share

BTW< The free FRAPS version does let you see FPS, it lets you record video, capture screenshots without time limits.

Well I bought a video capture card (Aver TV) for about 50 dollars. It has a coaxial, s-video, and RCA inputs on the card. And I have a Geforce FX5200 128mb DDR with a s-video out. I just turn on the clone option on my video card which enables the svideo out so what ever is on my monitor is output to the svideo. Then I just grab an s-video cable and hook it up to my video capture card and Video Card. Then I run windows movie maker, and set up the options to grab video from my svideo input. And I have sucessfuly captured video with minimal slow downs. Then when I have finished I can edit the video and add my own music to the background if I like. This is just one way to do it but there many other programs but I think the program it self is using up lots of memory which causes slow down. And you also need to take note that while ur recording the program is writing to ur HD so that also adds for the slow downs. So youd probably need an extra HD to record the video to and run the game off ur other HD or just capture video from another machine using the video capture card. If you didn't understand anything I said let me know lol. Ill try to explain it more clearly.

cool! gotta try that! XD

thnx dude

But don't you have to bring down screen resolution to like 800x600 so you can use your video out option? I like playing at 1280x1024.

Nope I ran it at 1024x768. But windows movie maker only lets me capture at 640x480.
