@Clansworth Personally I wouldn't agree with the log-edit options, but only because I'm sometimes a stick in the mud, but I can see it's usefulness in not only creating parody fights/parody videos but also demonstrative videos, tactical videos, learning videos, funny or action-orientated videos, more like Machinima than anything else.

There's a lot of potential in allowing the battle logs to be configurable or even down-right created from scratch. I'd love to see what CCP would do here.

If you think about how much time is spent on SISI trying to get just the right shot, you can immediately see how much the edit/create capability would be used. Just think about the corp/alliance propaganda videos that could be produced.

@Clansworth the propaganda would be amazing. We've already got THE most creative community for any game ever made. And we do this with our own tools already. I can't imagine a limit to what the community can create with the Battle-Recorder.

I would love this.
I've always wanted to make eve-videos, but my pc can't even run eve at full specs WITHOUT screencap software going.
Not only could I make videos easier, but I could post-render the scenes at 100% graphics too...

anytime ninja =)

I genuinely believe itd help eve online in soo many ways, from:

Promoting it with epic user made vids
Helping FC's and pilots understand battle theyve just had and how to improve on them

...to helping devs and bug hunters and the eve customer relations with understanding of problems and seeing issues almost first hand.

it also means people would be able to concentrate on the battle and have their settings set for optimum performance rather than optimum quality of screen capture.

This way it's not only easier, it's more accessible.


anyone with a moderately modern card (i.e. can play eve) should have a dual-outputs...

the PVR, yeah, that may not be quite so common.

+1 to the OP's idea though ... didn't see if this was mentioned, but it NEEDS to be able to output in a format that we can put on the CQ TV Twisted

What the hell is a PVR?

Also, I think it would be nice of there was a CQ Screen in the ship hangar. A big one, yes, but still a screen. It could also double as a billboard.

This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

fraps only uses a little amount of resources, you only need to have enough free HD space. If you can't run fraps at the same time as EVE you need to buy a new PC.

This was a serious response. fraps takes up like 150Mb and a couple % of your cpu, unless you play eve on a pentium 3.
Also use Gamebooster (google it) when you run fraps, that more then compensates for the extra usage from fraps.

Not the point. Some people can't run EVE at decent FPS with max graphics. It's not about the extra CPU use from fraps.

Such a data recorder program would allow us to capture a minimum amount of non-graphical data in realtime, then later render it in highest detail frame by frame and export it in video form in realtime. This way only the render time is affected by the quality of my machine.

this needs to be kept at the top of the list for maximum exposure.
