How to Record Replays and Upload to YouTube

January 4, 2008 – 5:26 am | by Gamingnerd

Let’s say you pulled off a sweet run or you did something so bizzare or amazing that you wanna show it off to everyone yet you don’t exactly know how….or where to show it… This is what this guide is for, for those who doesn’t quite get it yet.

1. First off, you’ll need fraps, which is a video game recorder software thingy : http://www.fraps.com/

-I would recommend to buy it though so that no annoying advertisiment like “www.fraps.com” would show up while recording. But yea basically you’ll need any video recorder really, just stick with fraps.

2. Okay, you got fraps, and you did your run in Audition…Yaaaay…Now how do I view the replay file?…
This is a very simple answer and trust me I got stuck on this for a while too…I’m a retard…

-Anyways, at the end of the games in Audition, more than likely you’d see something with a roll of film on the top left of the screen (Which was formerly “save game” on the top right) like this, If you click it then it’ll save the vid as a replay..

3. Now how the heck do I see the replay file already?

-First thing we need to get into our heads…to those who are smart to try to look for the replay file, thinking it’s in the main folder….it’s not…. The replay files, No matter how many there are, are all in a .arp file. So you can’t view them yet..
-Back on Audition, if you go to the main menu screen, you’d notice that on the bottom right of the game list, there’s this thing that says “Replay”. It’s kinda hard to miss so I’ll put a screenie.

4. Now, as the picture states, when you press Replay, a list pops up named Replay List.
-This shows the latest Audition match that you saved and if you press the arrow, It shows a full list of all the Audition Matches you saved, Now, press play and then follow the rest. When the game starts, It’ll show a replay of the game you saved, Tada!

5. Now that we got that out of the way, we’ll start the recording…
-For those who used Fraps before…Fraps is a memory killer…A MEMORY KILLER! T_T If you’re trying to record, especially with a crappy comp (cough like mines >.>) You maaay need to adjust the settings.

In the movie tab…Always ALWAYS ALWAYS set the size to Half-Size…Unless you want it to be 800×600 and let the recording lag like hell…total hell…
Mess around with the FPS settings…Throughout my time recording Audition…It doesn’t lag much so it shouldn’t be a problem

It would help in the FPS tab to turn Overlay Corner on so that you can see if it’s recording or not, and to see the FPS currently. If it’s red, It’s recording, If It’s Yellow, It’s not recording, Remember that. And also, If you’re worrying that the FPS counter will interferr with the recording, it won’t, don’t worry

6. Once all that is set, launch Fraps and then launch Audition. Using the method above, Open the file you want to replay and play it. To record the game, press F9 and press F9 again to stop recording. Once you recorded what you wanted, go to the directory where the vid is recorded and……

7. This is to why I said it’s a memory killer… The recorded file will be like over 500MB…If it’s anything like that or close…Don’t be alarmed…That’s just how Fraps works… You’ll just need to compress the file…

8. *dies from typing too much* How to compress a file… Since it’s a whole different
ball game…Check the next post….

9. Once you got all that done, To host it online for everrrryone to see…you’ll need a YouTube Account! And once you got that, upload the vid and TaDa! Uploaded and Recorded Audition Vid! happy.gif *collapses*

An example of a result I have uploaded like a few weeks ago.
