Key takeaways
  • Lineage is recorded as one full session, so hunting, sieges and boss raids stay in one video until you log off.
  • Press the clip save shortcut right after an enchant result appears and everything from applying the scroll to the result is kept as its own clip.
  • Gate breaches and castle captures become a clan record video with AI Highlight and DOR Studio, ready to send with a dor.gg link.

Lineage records automatically once DOR is installed: launch the game and the AI takes it from there. DOR keeps capturing your screen the whole time you are logged in, so whether you play Remastered or Classic, there is no recording hotkey to memorise and no macro to set up. A Giran Castle siege that kicks off without warning, or the scroll you hesitated over that finally made your weapon stick, is kept along with clan voice and game audio. Lineage is a PC MMORPG built around clans and sieges, and a single video gets the story across to your clanmates far better than words. This guide covers recording Lineage with DOR in order: getting ready, checking recording, saving enchants and siege moments, finding scenes, building a clan record video and sharing links.

  • Keep a Giran Castle siege in one unbroken video, from the start of the siege to the capture announcement.
  • Save a weapon enchant success, a hunting ground PK or the last hit on a raid boss as separate clips.
  • Use AI Voice Notes to find clan calls like 'outer gate is down, regroup inside' and jump straight to that moment.
  • Join the gate breach, the clan rally at the guardian tower and the castle capture into a siege recap with AI Highlight.
  • Send your enchant proof video to the clan group chat or Discord with a single dor.gg link.

Before you record Lineage: install and recording mode

Lineage is light on hardware, so getting ready to record is simple. DOR is a free Windows app and never puts a watermark on your videos. Lineage uses full session recording, which means hunting, sieges and shop management while you are logged in stay in one video until you close the game. You will often spend hours in a hunting ground, so recordings pile up quickly; if you want them on a roomier drive, read changing the recording save location first. You can leave the game's own recording settings as they are, because DOR records the screen separately. The table below covers what to know for Lineage.

Record Lineage with DOR: step by step

  1. 1Install DORDownload DOR, install it and leave it running. It is free, and once it is installed there is nothing to prepare each time you log into Lineage. Install it before siege day and the rally is on record too.
  2. 2Launch Lineage and log inStart Lineage on your Windows PC. When DOR detects the game, recording begins right away, so picking your character and collecting buffs in town are already captured. Remastered and Classic work the same way.
  3. 3Check recording before heading outBefore you leave town, check the DOR app once to confirm recording is in progress. If it is not picked up, follow what to do when the recorder does not detect your game. After that, head into a hunting ground or to the siege rally point without thinking about it.
  4. 4Clip the enchant resultRight after you apply a scroll and the enchant result appears, press the clip save shortcut. Success or failure, the last stretch up to the result is stored as a separate clip, so you never have to hunt for a few seconds inside hours of grinding footage.
  5. 5Log off and open My ClipsWhen you finish for the day and close the game, the full session video and every clip you saved appear together in My Clips in the DOR app. Siege days and grinding days sit in separate sessions, which makes them easy to find.

Find your recordings

Open your recordings from My Clips in the DOR app, also called the library. Each time you log in and close Lineage becomes one session, and anything you grabbed with the clip save shortcut shows up as its own clip. Sieges start at a fixed time, so work out the gap between when your recording began and when the siege started and you will know roughly where the siege sits in the recording. Play from there and look for the moment your clan pushed through the gate or reached the guardian tower. Set a start and an end, trim, then export as 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1. A crowded siege reads best in 16:9 where everything is visible, while an enchant that only needs the item window works as a short 9:16 or 1:1 cut. The walkthrough is in how to trim game clips. Like the video from the day your clan took the castle. When space fills up, older videos you have not liked are cleared first, so liked siege records stay put.

Save the moments you want to keep

Even with everything recorded while you are logged in, moments decided in a few seconds are safest clipped on the spot. Press the clip save shortcut and the last stretch of play is saved as a clip. The default length is 30 seconds, and you can choose 15, 30, 45 or 60 seconds in settings. Good times to press it in Lineage are right after a weapon enchant succeeds, right after a PK with an enemy clan in a hunting ground, right after you land the last hit on a raid boss, and right after the outer gate falls. Enchant results are quick, so a 15 second length captures the scroll through to the result exactly, while a long fight like the guardian tower clash fits better at 60. To change the shortcut and length, see saving the last few seconds instantly.

Find what was said with AI Voice Notes

On siege day, clan voice never goes quiet. Calls like 'outer gate is down, regroup inside', 'Lord, move up to the guardian tower' and 'enemy clan in our hunting ground' fly back and forth, and before an enchant you will hear things like 'if this enchant sticks, drinks on me'. DOR records game audio and your microphone together, and AI Voice Notes writes those calls onto the recording timeline as text. After the siege, if you want to check who told everyone where to regroup, find that call in the timeline text and select it to jump straight to the scene. Reviewing calls alongside the footage also helps plan the next siege. If your clan talks over Discord, see recording Discord call audio.

Build a montage with AI Highlight

When a siege ends, turn your saved clips into a clan record video. In the library, check the Giran outer gate breach, the clan rally at the guardian tower, the hunting ground PK, the weapon enchant success, the last hit on the raid boss and the castle capture, then select AI Highlight. DOR joins them into one video you can post straight to the clan forum or group chat as a siege recap. To arrange the siege scenes in time order yourself, see how to merge game clips.

Edit in DOR Studio

DOR Studio opens in your browser with nothing to install. Trim an enchant from just before you apply the scroll and add a punch zoom as the result appears to bring back the tension. For a siege recap, put your clan name and the siege date on screen as text, drop a glitch transition between the gate breach and the capture, then lay a background track underneath. Enchant proof Shorts suit 9:16, and siege recaps suit 16:9. To keep the item window inside a vertical frame, read recording games for vertical Shorts. When you are done, download the result as an mp4 or share it as a link straight away.

Share with a dor.gg link

Send trimmed scenes as dor.gg links. Whoever opens the link plays it right in a phone browser without installing anything, so you can post the siege you just fought to the clan group chat or send the capture moment to clanmates who missed it. Cut enchant proof vertically so it fills a phone screen, and post siege recaps to your clan's Discord channel in landscape. Finding siege and enchant scenes in a recording and sending them is covered in sending Lineage castle siege videos, and posting to Discord is covered in sharing clips on Discord.

Lineage recommended settings and troubleshooting

Lineage is fairly light, so recording runs smoothly even at minimum spec. The default 1080p at 30fps keeps clan names and characters clear, and 60fps is the pick if you want crowded siege scenes to look smoother. On an older PC, the lighter 720p/30fps mode keeps the load down. Fullscreen, windowed and borderless windows all record, so leave the game's settings alone. Where anti cheat blocks game capture, DOR switches to monitor capture and keeps recording. DOR uses GPU hardware encoding, so its effect on hunting and sieges is small. It has no cheat features and never touches your game files or play data. On days you stay logged in from morning to night, see recording long gameplay without stutter.

SymptomWhat to checkFix

Worried about clashing with the in game recorderThe in game recording settingsLeave the in game recording settings as they are; DOR records the screen separately.
Worried a recorder could affect your accountHow DOR worksDOR only captures the screen, has no cheat features and does not modify game files or play data.
Before you enchant, set the clip length to 15 seconds. The time from applying the scroll to the result is short, so a 15 second clip can go straight into the clan chat as proof without any trimming.
