Warframe is a game where you pick a mission on your Orbiter, drop in with your squad, sweep through enemies, come back, and swap gear, sometimes dozens of times in one night. Somewhere in that loop, the Prime part you wanted shows up on the relic reward screen, you survive a Steel Path mission to the end, or you chain bullet jumps and slides across a map without a break. This guide covers one method only: record Warframe with DOR, find those scenes in a long recording packed with missions, trim them, and send them to your squad and friends as a dor.gg link. Because what to show and how long it should run differ by mission type, it also lays out those guidelines.
The whole session is one video, not each mission
DOR saves Warframe as a whole-session recording. Everything from launch to exit lands in one video: picking gear on the Orbiter, mission loading, the missions themselves, and the result screens. Missions are not saved one by one. DOR also does not detect boss kills or rewards to build clips, so you find each scene in the recording and cut it out with trimming. On nights you run relics for hours, the file grows fast, and recording stops automatically once free space falls below 20GB. If a recording ever cuts off or fails to save, fixing recordings that are not saving walks through checking disk space and save paths in order.
From a string of missions to one shareable link
- 1Free up space before a relic marathonRunning Void Fissures for hours keeps one recording growing. Recording stops automatically when free space drops below 20GB, so clean out older recordings you have already trimmed before you start.
- 2Launch Warframe with DOR runningDOR is a free Windows app that detects the game on launch and starts recording. If you coordinate with your squad on voice, connect your microphone; game audio and mic go into the same video.
- 3Count Orbiter returns to find the missionOpen the recording in the library and drag through the timeline, and you will see the same pattern after each mission: the result screen, then back to the Orbiter. Remember which mission of the night it was, count the Orbiter scenes, and you can jump straight to where that mission starts.
- 4Keep only a few seconds around the relic reward screenAt the end of a Void Fissure mission, a selection screen shows the rewards from all four squad members' relics side by side. If the part you wanted appeared, keeping about 10 seconds from just before that screen until you pick is plenty to make it welcome news for a friend.
- 5Set length and ratio by scene, then trimIn the library's trim tool, keep parkour or ability combos short at 15 to 30 seconds, and give Steel Path clears and boss fights room from the last tough stretch to the completion text. Movement across big maps reads best in 16:9, while 9:16 or 1:1 suit friends watching on a phone. When the trim finishes, a dor.gg link is created.
- 6Add the frame name and a line about the buildIn Warframe, people always want to know which frame and weapon you used. When you paste the link into squad or clan chat, add the frame's name and one or two key mods, and the person receiving it can try the same setup.
Scenes by mission type, and clues in the recording
| Mission type | Scene to send | How to spot it in the recording |
|---|---|---|
| Void Fissure | The Prime part you wanted appearing as a reward | Near the end, the selection screen showing all four squad members' rewards side by side |
| Steel Path | Holding out to the end of a high-difficulty mission | The last few minutes before the mission complete text |
| Boss or Eidolon hunt | The squad coordinating to bring down a huge enemy | From the point a large health bar appears at the top of the screen |
| Parkour movement | Bullet jumps and slides chained without a break | Right after the mission starts, sprinting to the objective |
| Open world | Fighting your way across wide terrain | Just after the gate out of a town or hub opens |
| Railjack space combat | Ships trading fire until an enemy vessel breaks apart | After the view switches to space and the shooting starts |
| New Warframe's first mission | Trying a freshly built frame's abilities for the first time | The first mission right after swapping gear on the Orbiter |
Before sending a Warframe scene
- I confirmed the drive has comfortably more than 20GB free before a relic marathon.
- I remembered which mission of the night the scene came from.
- The relic reward clip includes the moment the selection screen first appears.
- The Steel Path clip runs from the last tough stretch to the completion text.
- I added the frame name and key build details with the link.
- I opened the link once to confirm the video and sound play correctly.
How DOR records Warframe
DOR is a free Windows desktop app. Since an app update in October 2026, Warframe is a supported game: DOR detects it on launch and records the whole session as a single mp4 until you close it. You can turn whole-session recording on or off per game in settings, and PCs with an NVIDIA graphics card use NVENC hardware encoding by default. Trim a section in the app library to create a dor.gg link, and whoever receives it opens the video in a browser with no install. For how to pick scenes from several missions and order them into one highlight, see the game highlight editing workflow; the actual merging and adding text or background music can be done with no install in DOR Studio, covered in the browser clip editor.
