CisTer-dB- Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 o7 to you all. Do you guys experience any FPS drop when using FRAPS?
6./ZG26_Emil Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Well I have experienced fps drop using Dxtory and some other software, I haven't used Fraps for a long time now but I think Fraps, Dxtory and some others use a lot of CPU cycles as does the game so that might be the issue. How much is your FPS dropping and in what circumstances?
CisTer-dB- Posted October 2, 2015 Author Posted October 2, 2015 (edited) About 50% In fact it does the same in DCS because it by pass my GPU apparently. So BoS is the same I see Thanks Edited October 2, 2015 by 71st_AH_dB
6./ZG26_Emil Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 you could think about overclocking you processor, it shouldn't be hard to get a big improvement there. That does sound like a big loss but you've got a huge resolution monitor which is probably why, you could try recording to a smaller resolution because 3840x2160 is going to take a lot of resources. I do mine in 1440p now and I've hard to work very hard to get acceptable results although shadowplay works flawlessly but the quality is nowhere as good as the uncompressed quality of fraps and dxtory etc. Dxtory is worth looking at, you can use a wide range of codecs to improve things, if you want any tips I can give you my settings.
SR-F_Winger Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 (edited) I can recommend DXtory. Its less performancedemanding than FRAPS. And cheaper. One of the devs was recommending it a while ago. I believe in the ROF forums. get it here: http://exkode.com/dxtory-features-en.html Edited October 2, 2015 by Winger
ACG_pezman Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Why not shadow play by nvidia? I used to use fraps but it's very intensive on your system. Shadow play didn't seem to impact my system much and has all the same features and qualities as fraps. Of course it is designed for nvidia cards and systems.
clayman Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 (edited) Used FRAPS for long, long time. Shadow Play and EVGA Precision for 5. I get roughly a 3-5 FPS hit, 47 down to 43 FPS in BOS at Ultra. Never 50% though. Not in IL2, DCS, ROF, Warships, SH5-4. Sorry to hear, that's a big hit. ( similar i7/16GB/ASUS X79-D, running a GTX790 though) Edited October 2, 2015 by clayman
SharpeXB Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 I've been able to run Fraps in RoF or BoS without a performance hit. Sometimes I think my old PC specs with RoF was i7-920 8GB RAM and a 512 MB ATI 4850 at 1920x1080 and I could use Fraps to capture replays without too much trouble. For BoS Fraps at 1080p not a problem. Using an i7-3770K and 16 GB and GTX 780 or 980 At 4K capturing at 1/2 size. Not really. Shadowplay works better with that.

( similar i7/16GB/ASUS X79-D, running a GTX790 though) Look at his resolution size, that's most likely the issue

Because I have AMD GPU. as of now we don't have the equivalent of Shadow play. Not sure why but I don't have problem to record any other things apart from BoS and DCS 1.2 not sure about 1.5 that just came out Edited October 2, 2015 by 71st_AH_dB

I got a good setting in Dxtory that worked ok using MagicYUV. Also here is a link to suggestions for best Fraps performance https://encodingtalk.com/threads/best-fraps-performance-tips-afaik.559/
CisTer-dB- Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 Thank very much for the link I'll check it up Sims are CPU intensive, I think that is why. BoS is, not CloD and not DCS also, since 1.5 Hurray :D
KoN_ Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Record ingame , then watch , and record with shadow play , compress with handbreak , youtube. ..............lol
