Does FRAPS work in P3D V4?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know if FRAPS will work in P3D version 4?

Thank you

Robert Marton

Yes, but it comes with a performance penalty if you are recording video output, you're much better off using nVidia Experience (hardware based) to do the recordings provide you have an nVidia GPU from within the last 5 years or so.

I typically use FRAPS for recording timeframe data but there are many other tools these days that are more up to date and do the same ... freeware side is OBS here: https://obsproject.com/

Cheers, Rob.

Yes, FRAPS works perfect in P3Dv4, but with FRAPS enabled the new Flight1 G500/600 will NOT work.

Allways three greens,

I couldn't get FRAPS to work with P3Dv4 so I'm using the native V command to take screenshots and capturing video using whatever is bundled with GeForce experience since I expect this would have the least performance impact.

Initially, FRAPS was problematic for me, but I found the trick to running FRAPS (for me) was to ensure that FRAPS is loaded before launching P3Dv3 or 4.
