Badger73 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Windows 10 users: It seems that FRAPS is not entirely Windows10 compatible. In my case, it worked once and then fails ever after. Googling an alternative, I came accross BANDICAM; https://www.bandicam.com/fraps-alternative/ and https://www.bandicam.com/support/start2/. I'm favorably impressed so far with their free download version. I have not used the video recording tools yet but taking screenshots is straightforward and created as JPEG (.jpg) files instead of the FRAPS's free version less robust Bitmap (.bmp) files. For those Windows 10 users now in need of a FRAPS alternative, check out and consider Bandicam. Good luck and good gaming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BletchleyGeek Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 @Badger73 there's a way which doesn't require you to install 3rd party software: https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/4kpqx3/psa_windows_10_has_a_builtin_game_capture_software/ it does work quite well, even if the quality isn't awesome. With CMx2 you don't get the overlay but whenever you use the shortcuts for screenshots or video capture you'll see the screen brightness to change slightly to higher, normal, higher, normal. You can tweak settings etc. via the xbox app that comes with Win10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
