Poo, looks like 40fps video just gets chopped to 30fps when uploaded to ModDB anyways. Oh well, still a fun experiment getting an old DirectX game run under a debugger to record. :P

Messing around with the ability to reliably record >30fps video in really old games, such as Sonic R. Two quick races to the tune of Scale the Summit's Drifting Figures, off their 2011 album The Collective. Check them out at Scalethesummit.com

It seems like this game isn't actually playable on WinXP / Win7 without being run being run under a debugger (I use IDA Pro Free). It also yields poor framerates on my machine unless Windows Media Player or iTunes is running. I think it's an old DirectX thing related to sound use - similarly old games suffer the same issue. Amusing, to say the least.
