I keep getting little things retroactive post I had done. (And I'm going to get interesting post, bancame a touch)

In this case a little movie and tutorial I did a year and a half in the game Battlefield 2, I was experiencing as a film and left it that left me quite happy:

Mini tutorial on how to do:

Software requirements: BF2, Fraps, some video editing (Windows Movie Maker, Premiere, other).
Downloads: FRAPS (pass www.atfix.com ), a demo test

Fraps
It was originally designed to display the fps of the games made in directX, but over time evolved and now allows you to take screenshots (in a much more efficient than including the game), show FPS on G15 LCD keyboard, video recording and some things more.

This software records exactly what you see on the monitor, and saves it to file with their proprietary codec (if you pass the video to another machine and you have not installed fraps will not be able to see) this format is to have raw higher quality, which means an awful hard disk usage, example: 1 minute at 1024 x 768 is equivalent to a gig!

This panel is the video recording settings:

Which specifies the maximum fps (in the game which you specify them down here, 30 recommended, if you're over 60 as normal, when you start to notice the record was lowered to 30), half-size (half the size application, if 800 × 600, will be 400 × 300, if the goal is the site is acceptable, and if you want all the details using full-size obviously take intoaccount the cost of the disk.
Is also "hide the cursor" and allow sync of video with sound, obviously not recommended, eye, I step in COD2 that sound out of sync even with no one is checked this box.

Demo
Since the game as server or single player demos can be recorded on individual files or the dedicated server has enabled this parameter, all the game records in a file and is downloadable from the game menu (community-recording of battles).

The demo files are usually light because they are not video, if not coordinate and data of the game, and this can be viewed from any angle the game, either free or behind a player.

Two major cons:

1. The movements of "camera" are rude and there is no way to soften them in real time.
2. You can not "rewind"!, If you spent, you have to start over.

To record a demo / sequence: Open the console (~), then write "demo.recordDemo filename", when you want to finish recording, again in the console type "demo.stopRecording" this creates two files and stores them in " Battlefield 2 \ mods \ bf2 \ Demos \ filename. * "copy these two files to" My Documents \ Battlefield 2 \ Profiles \ Default \ Demos \ ", then from the main menu bf2" community-Recording of battles "in the right pane select "filename" and the button "play file", then load the map you can view the game in action.

With the mouse is pointing the light and the keys W, A, S, D moves in parallel to the screen, Ctrl down to the floor, Z rises, tight and Shift keys mentioned some of the slower moving, less abrupt.

More keys:
1 = Pause / play
2 = Real-time playback with sound
3 = Listening to 5%
Playing 4 = 25%
Playing 5 = 50%
6 = Playing sound in real time NO
Playing 7 = 150%
Playing 8 = 300%

And if not: the Q key opens a rosette of Gears:

Restart: Restarts the demo, without reloading the map.

With the T key, open the rosette:

In the case of wanting to follow a player press "space" several times to find the player you want, the camera remains fixed on the player and the mouse revolves around it, pressing the right mouse button is " off "the player (free camera).

Well, now, using fraps while we move around the map can capture (default F12) and make a video with the catch, not to forget what weight each video, an interesting recommendation and especially if the goal of the video is uploading to a site is to record as much detail as possible, but with low resolution, eg 800 × 600, so that weighs much less (or create a shortcut and put the following parameters: + 800 + Szy SZX 600, to avoid changing the profile) .
This was a method, there is another it does is stored in another file the motions of the camera (unchangeable course) but not time, so for me, not helped me.
More facts about this method: http://planetbattlefield.gamespy.com ... l & id = 78 & game = 3
The good news is that it has an option (+ r) to save video directly to AVI.

Post-production
We have the videos, it was time to post-production:
I use Premiere, but not bad MS Windows media maker (which comes with Windows XP) to do something simple. Obviously this is not going to explain as there are books and lots of info on inet, but play with the controls and be surprised at the results.

If you want to try using the demo file that I put at the beginning, remember, put it in "My Documents \ Battlefield 2 \ Profiles \ Default \ Demos \" unpacked clear

TIP1: What you can do to ease the movement is recorded in slow motion and with the shift key pressed, then in post production, accelerate

Tip2: To get the data (HUD) that appear at the top left, into the console: renderer.drawHud 0, to see again put 1

Tip3: Not including the issue of the tag, which I did and it worked, it was from that position or restart the map, do not press "space" (or rosette T)

Two things that happened then:

1) A monkey in the same community , without knowing and not knowing, post a post saying "Excellent video ..."
2) They used a video page with videos of the game gallery (third).
