== Setting up Evidence Capture == | |||
For the most part, you will have a positive experience playing on the RPUK server. Unfortunately, there are rare occasions where you may have your progress impacted by a game bug or you may become victim to someone breaking the server rules. RPUK staff can consider compensation in the right circumstances for any loss due to a bug or when victim to a rule breaker. To ensure fairness, staff request evidence when submitting these reports so there is a transparent view of the situation. This is best being a video of the incident and, especially with regards to player reports, a few minutes leading up to the incident so context of the overall situation is clearer for staff to review. | |||
It maybe worth becoming familiar with the process when it comes to reporting players or seeking compensation; | |||

It should be noted that any compensation request as a result of someone breaking server rules must be completed AFTER the player report has been reviewed and processed by RPUK staff. | |||
=== Video Capture Solutions === | |||
You do not need to record continuously as this would likely fill your hard drive up pretty quickly, however there are solutions to have a 'buffer'; that is a period of time where you are recording but only when you press a hotkey does that clip save, otherwise it is not saved. This allows you to 'clip' incidents that you may require as evidence and can then trim (if required) and upload to a video host (such as YouTube). | |||

If you have a Nvidia GPU then you may already have the software installed through the GeForce Experience. This captures the video through your graphics card and may have less of a performance impact compared to other solutions. You will need to setup a hotkey and enable "Instant Replay". You will want to go into the settings (Default key to open the window is {{Key|ALT}} + {{Key|Z}}) and ensure that the length Instant Replay records is at least 5 minutes. | |||
One point to note also is that you need to enable 'Desktop Capture' within the Privacy Control settings to record FiveM. Be aware that audio from outside of the game will also be recorded as a result and if you minimize the game some | |||
==== [https://obsproject.com/ OBS Studio] / [https://streamlabs.com/ StreamLabs] ==== | |||
Both of these are programs used to manage dynamic scenes for streaming and recording; taking inputs from games, displays, cameras, audio devices etc. Streamlabs OBS being slightly easier to use for the average streamer where as OBS Studio has some more complex features and a busier UI, generally. Both of these have the ability to record as well as stream. This requires a bit of setup to create a 'Scene' with a Game Capture or Display Capture option. | |||
What you will also need to setup Instant Replay or Replay Buffer within the software settings and assign a hotkey so that you can save the recording going back so many minutes. Information on how to set this up is available for [https://www.obs.live/articles/2019/10/4/b6zieupip1h45bgewyvp6gamwube7g OBS Studio] and [https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/instant-replays-in-streamlabs-obs Streamlabs]. | |||
Remember, test that both video and audio (that is the game and your voice) are recording correctly to avoid any frustration when the clip you wanted to record hasn't worked correctly. | |||
