I've gotten a lot of questions about how to successfully record games like RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 and Chris Sawyer's Locomotion over the years, so I finally decided to make a tutorial about it. NOTE: This doesn't work in Windows 8. I use Bandicam instead and might make a separate tutorial for that someday.

Leave a like if you found this tutorial useful and comment if you have any questions or want to suggest another tutorial.
