For video capture, if you have an Nvidia card, then you should use ShadowPlay.
If your card is not too old (like from 10 years ago for example), then it has a native MP4 encoder specifically for this, meaning that ShadowPlay is able to record with a lot of quality with seemingly no performance impact, since the capture is encoded by the hardware itself.
One golden rule to remember: Github is awesome for developers, but way too complicated for normal users.
Github should remain your "go to" place for the actual source, maybe opening technical issues, etc.
But for normal users you should release it in platforms that are user-friendly and where people are going to look for these things to download them (such as ModDB).
If there's a project you have released or are about to release, and you really want for people to know about it and try it out, then don't limit yourself to one channel.
At that point you should also show it in UT99 discord servers, other active UT forums (although these days this one is pretty much THE active forum), maybe even other modding-related platforms that support UT99 (GameBanana is one of them I think).
