As my groupmate went AFK for 5 mins I decided to run around gorge for a laugh seeing what I bumped into. I was bound in ligen so didnt have anything to lose. On my second pass around the beetle log Edelia - a red con albion minstrel stuns me.. that's where the story begins.

note:

1. some elements have been removed, especially the 10-15sec delay between being stunned/mezzed and hit for the first time as Edelia rested.
2. This isnt a piss take of Edelia, I feel a bit sorry for her but I was very fortunate that my guild were already heading out when I started crying in guild chat like a girl.
3. I'm sure she'll get me next time :)

PS. sorry about the terrible music but I wanted it to remain light hearted :)

Nice work Kameh!

Any tips for beginners on how to output a movie from DaoC? I wanna catch Sonny and Grey in the hay on tape at next CF meeting!

most of the time taken for me was setting up cables from the PC's graphics card to the VCR and back again to video capture card. most graphics cards these days have a 2nd output that can be cloned (how I do it) and sent to a VCR. Only thing you then need is a video capture card, although I know there's even a few graphics cards with that too now!

You can also capture your screen straight to hard disk, I didnt chose to do that because I think my PC would die. Taping it on a VCR gives no performance hit so that's the option I went for. I'm still fairly new to it anyway, it's just a bit of fun :)

I'm going to try something a little larger and more polished, god I hope my pc can handle it :(

needs better music too lol

Oh I see.

I was hoping to get a direct to disk capture too to avoid the noise associated with VCR.

But of course perf hit and dropped frames will be the problem, well I should give it a try as I got a bi-proc and I think (not sure I don't have DaoX so can't check perf monitor whiel playing) onyl uses one proc anyway.

Thanks for the info!
