I just got an awesome clip of pushing my friend off of the Iron Keep Bridge in Dark Souls 2 with the Bone Fist (Probably too late now, but will be remembered). I remembered the 3 minute feature with ShadowPlay, which my GeForce GTX 660 Ti is compatible with. Is there a way to enable it and what is the default save location?

The feature you're looking for is the "Shadow" mode of ShadowPlay.

To activate it, you'll need to open the ShadowPlay window by clicking on the ShadowPlay button in the top right corner of the GeForce Experience window, then clicking on the Mode button, and finally selecting either Shadow & Manual or Shadow.

To use it, you merely need to press the required keyboard shortcut, which you can easily set for yourself under "Save the last n minutes recorded". You can choose any value from 1 to 20 for n by clicking on the Shadow time button next to the Mode button. The required option is under Preferences > ShadowPlay > Keyboard shortcuts.

Shadow recordings are saved in the same place as regular recordings which can be configured as well.

  • Thanks dude! Now next time I get a Battlefield Hardline Beta Sniper Rifle kill from 500 meters in a moving helicopter headshot on the pilot with the zoom on 200 meters, it will be captured. :D (God that did happen to me, and when I realized it wasn't recorded... At least my friend there remembered it)

    @mugen2099. Remember you can set the recording length up to 20 minutes. I'm not sure where exactly ShadowPlay puts the not-yet-saved shadow recording (probably under Temporary files location), but if you've got the RAM and HDD/SSD to spare, recording 20 minutes might be better and safer than just 3. Good luck getting another such kill ;)
