Recording Chip's Challenge footage

Quote:I despise ChipCap. Why must it speed up gameplay footage by a certain amount which only makes it look oddly harder?


Well, I think technically, the computer is actually running CC slower... Smiley The game second probably should be the same as a real second, as shown in the AVI, but computers for some reason run it slower (CC has been known to be a resource hog; perhaps that has something to do with it...).

I used to have a computer that I think actually ran CC close to "real-time"... I tested it by setting it up side by side with a newer computer, setting them both to the same level with a 29 second time limit, and hitting the space bars to let the time run out. Chip ran out of time on the old computer while the newer one's counter had 4 seconds left...
