I Use Fraps. Its not free but theyre are free alternatives. Bandicam is a good one. If you search up Free screen recorder up on youtube. You can see that you can get some really good ones for free. You can get fraps for free. But you"ll need to search it up yourself. Screen recorders are one thing you'll need for a good youtube channel. You'll also need a good editing software, and an Imagination. What I use for filming is:

Fraps/Camtasia recorder. (Testing them Out)

Bandicam

Camtasia Studio

more to come soon...

I have tried debut but the frame rate in game drops a bit, but the vid is soooooo laggy it's useless

If you want a good video recording you will actually need to pay for it, free ones are low quality.

If your frame rate drops, you won't get higher framerates with any other software. You need a better rig with a good graphics card.

What spec is your computer, out of interest?

Hello barney,

To start off what is your Operating System? That will help me figure out what programs would do well for you. For video editing and it be free I'm sure there is an OpenSource software out there I've seen them. Just google open source video editing software. OpenSource meaning free. Good luck <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f600.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":d">:d</object>

Ok, I run on windows 7

I run on a hp laptop, not sure on details lol, it's pretty old :/

I know it's not much to run on, and I know free ones are usually pretty bad, so any ones that arnt a lot of money, no more than £20 max really....

Thanks for the help guys

You won't be able to do it if you're getting low FPS.

The optimisation difference between different software is negligible, if you're lagging you may as well kiss it goodbye until you get a good PC.

I am not lagging in game I am dropping to about 40 from 50 but the actuall video when I watch it after is lagging, I think it is something to do with the programme I am using, not my hardware :/

But Thats probly incorrect....

I'm pretty sure its possible, barney, to get good recording software for 'cheaper' than usual.
