This is a compact and simple utility for Windows that has long been the standard in the world of gamers and testers. The main task of the program is to display the current frames per second, take screenshots, and perform real-time video capture from applications running through DirectX and OpenGL. The main feature of Fraps is that the program is not overloaded with complex settings: all controls are based on hotkeys, which makes it convenient even for beginners.
Despite the fact that the development of Fraps has long been discontinued, the current version is still in demand, as it provides stable high-resolution recording, allows you to track the frame rate in real time, and save the results for performance analysis.
