First of all some of the basic stuff you need is: XviD is the codec used to compress your avi, and VirtualDub is the program you will use to make an avi, add effects (filters) etc. Configuring the CODEC It is explained in the tut by Mrk ... link can be found at the bottom This is what you have to do
CAPTURING THE FOOTAGE
Ok so now you have your footage in .bmp format in your tfc folder, now we are going to create an avi out of it so..
Alrite thats it ... you've done it !! You have made your very own avi, The rest of the cool stuff you see in POTWs etc is all video effects which can be created using VduB or Sony Vegas or Adobe Premiere. If you would like to learn to do kool stuff like that use www.google.com and search for some tutorials. The more you practice using this stuff the easier it gets.

Are these programs still being used today? or have they been replaced my newer, better software?
It's been a while since I had done some TFC videos. Was thinking of getting some TFC and FF footage and put them together in one video. Selling it as some kind of "the real team fortress experience" or "fortress bros" etc. |
Yea there are better options now. To stream, you can use the Steam Broadcasting System, though you can't currently download any of your videos.
However, if you download Open Broadcast Software which is used frequently on popular streaming sites such as Twitch.tv, you can save any video you record and it's already saved as a common file format rather than having to convert from .dem to .jpgs then to .avi. You just gotta set it to record and then playback a demo to get the in-game shots you want for your video, then a use video editor for the rest. FF game currently crashes if you open it, then the OBS to start recording, but if you start recording first, there's no issues. You'll probably want the 32 bit download since I don't think FF supports 64 bit. (not sure tho) |
Thanks for the advice. I just downloaded the program and will have a look at it later on today hopefully. :)

I do not recommend OBS for a quality output. If you are just looking to quickly record something then yeah it's fine. The old method is still the best for good quality along with your favorite programs to combine and compile.
