I am using Windows Vista 64bit, StarCraft: Brood War 1.16.1 in fullscreen without chaoslauncher, and I've tried various versions of FRAPS with no avail (I believe I'm using 3.5.x at the moment).
Does anyone know how to fix the problem I'm having?
I've been trying to record Brood War using FRAPS. In-game it is fine, but it refuses to record menu elements or briefings in full motion when in fullscreen. Instead, it captures the background splash screen (the .pcx file in the .mpq) and refuses to record anything until either that background image is changed or I begin a match. This is destructive for, naturally, recording briefings.

I ditched fraps for bandicam because of this.
Don't use fraps.
None.
I tried forever to get FRAPS working for this, but it just wouldn't. I ended up using HyperCam 2, personally.
Edit: Google searching has made it apparent that people prefer using alternatives to FRAPS when recording StarCraft.

Guncam worked best for me recording fullscreen Brood War.
Red classic.

Before. I was using the same patch and the same versions of FRAPS, and had no problems. There is literally nothing different about the OS, FRAPS, and Brood War.

Ultraviolet -- oh yeah probably. think I misinterpreted the original message. I thought he meant moving the flag revealed the base in the sense that it opened it up to being scouted, but what you're saying makes more sense[2025-5-15. : 11:37 am]
Sie_Sayoka -- dont those ladder maps have use map settings game type? i remember in a lot of them there was display text showing the maker and other credits at the beginning[2025-5-14. : 4:42 pm]
fritfrat -- Good point.. maybe in Melee it sets off the hard-coded Capture the Flag logic when they pick up a p12 flag, revealing the SCV[2025-5-14. : 4:34 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I forget how they do it, but they can preplace P12 units in melee / TvB maps. Maybe unit sprites[2025-5-14. : 3:38 pm]
fritfrat -- Artosis and Tasteless were chatting on an ASL cast that 6 player maps will likely never happen for competitive SC, but Artosis mentioned how there was a concept of one where a worker had to pick up a flag to get out of their base, which resulted in their base being revealed. That's not possible with Melee / Top vs Bottom settings, is it? Thought I'd ask..[2025-5-09. : 8:45 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Me too. The general concept is exciting and fun to play, or at least I enjoyed it in the previous Diplo Europe iteration.
