Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Rainbow  Screenrecording with a mac

Hey, how do you record this game using a mac? I can't get my program to record the game. It appears as a tiny square, or just a black screen while playing. Or it crashes.

Can you suggest anything?
I've tried using screenflick and SnapzPro and iShowU.

I have used snapzpro to capture amnesia before. How much ram do you have on your computer? And which video card?

I've got 4 GB of RAM and ummm, I've got NVidia MCP79 AHCI.

Oh! So I've been playing around with iShowU and I can record the game if it's not in fullscreen. If it is, then the captured screen is just black.

I never tried capturing in full screen.. I only captured when running the game in a window.. that may be the issue Smile Odds are when in full screen OS X is bypassing the compositing layer (which odds are the screen capture apps are relying on) in order to get an extra boost of speed.
