Want To Win Free Stuff? Join Our Sandbox Contest

oh Do what wou want but im already almost finished, I didnt know that you guys are releasing the new version of sandbox this week so I must edit my video XD

[Mike]

Just please make sure the old version of the logo is not in the video. Also I just realized I have an old version of fraps on my server. This is the last free version of fraps so it doesn't have a watermark but it also doesn't record audio. That works though if you want to put in your own, but just make sure you have the license and permission for the music.

For editing I like using virtualdub though there are a lot of options (windows moviemaker and such). Virtualdub apparently can also record videos though I have never tried it.

is it really not allowed to have a watermark? if it is not allowed then I have to record everything again

can we enter more than once for maximal chance of winning free stuff? anyways, i have a few ideas for a T-shirt, and making a vid will force me to get to work figuring out sony vegas. Best of luck to everyone entering!

Well watermarks generally take away a bit from the look and quality if the video. You can submit as many times as you want to all there categories. You can even win all three categories if all three are good enough. Siim feel free to submit the version you have and whatever other versions you want to do. I'm really interested to see what you've done. Take care and have a good day!

also I downloaded your version of fraps and it only record the lower left corner of my screen. Any help on that?

[Mike]

I think you have to set the resolution in Sandbox to 640X480 Sorry I forgot to mention that. Take care.

I just set the resolution in sandbox 1280x1024... but it still records only the lover corner of my screen. Should I try to use windowed mode? or Do I have to set the movie resolution in sandbox 1280x1024?

[Mike]

As we mentioned in the chat you need to make the Sandbox resolution 640X480 Also I forgot to add that /hidehud 1 will hide the FPS and crosshair and also editing hud in edit mode. Take care!

Just as a note, I guess it is okay to use youtube audioswap. If I repost the video somewhere else I'll have to use different music, and also it is a bit less "professional" since then obviously the video isn't synced to the music but it is an option. Take care.
