Ahh I can look through that without having the actual game? Snazzy. I'll get my investigation hat on. Thank you.

And whats the file size? I know Fraps has massive filesizes even for a 30 second recording.

Yep.
Also, when you start it, there's no lag as you would get often with Fraps. Perfect quality too obviously.
Only small minus is a small-ish red square box is present in video at top right, but not too big deterrent. Pretty nice feature.

You're not supposed to use it like that, you're supposed to compress it with a proper program. By recording uncompressed it massively reduces the FPS hit

You mean compressing it after or during? Im pretty sure when I made a video (only ever made 1  ) I compressed it afterwards, but the initial filesize was massive.

After, duh
If it's massive after compression you're doing something wrong

Perfect, could come in very handy for stories and possibly the man-game if it is quick and easy to use.

Yep, should make it very easy to show the sprint or such.

A first impression with a difference: the helmets look different in track cycling mode.
What you all wanted to know, I am sure

Its ok, my Caerphilly looks better than theirs (It has the Castle), so my stages still have a purpose

GET IN!
Stage editor now has the option to choose the Flat/Hill/Mountain rating of a stage. As well as all the other things like time gaps, uphill sprint ratio and mountain ratio.
The single most frustrating non-gameplay element of PCM12 has been fixed Going to be a good ManGame season next year

Better than PCM12, but still worried that this feature is in the hands of stage makers |

By default it is set to the automatic Cyanide mode. But stage makers can now overwrite it. *evil laugh*
