Default Freestyle sim video contest

Hey everybody, I was thinking that we could probably get a couple of people to send in sim videos and we could have a huge video contest or something like that. I wonder if we could get Biff or MadMax to organize a forum for all of our videos. Would anyone be interested in doing this. It's just an idea I've been tossing around

That would be awsome! The only problem is that i can make and save my videos to my sim, but how do i save it to "my computer" so i can send it to the site?

does anyone know how to use fraps without paying the whole fee it just seems like a lot for something your not going to use a whole lot. I dont wanna be cheap but 40 bucks for a video capture program is outrageous. What about free programs any good ones out there?

There is free version of fraps here, http://www.download.com/Fraps/3640-2121_4-10441285.html , you get a watermark though.

the free fraps only records 30 sec. at a time, i u sed it for the rcu sim contest, just record your flight on your sim and then rec. 30 sec at a time and splice it together on movie maker, its hard to make perfect, but it worked for me.

A watermark is a way of protecting your image from copyright infringement or forgery. Most watermarks are almost invisible, like the one on dollar bills.
In this case it is a ''fraps'' logo stamped into your video. You could cover it with a flyinggaints' logo or something.
Pity about the thirty second limit that won't do for a freestyle routine
