How do I record / replay a demo? Where is it saved?

Recording and replaying demos is done with Console-Commands (see chapter 3.4.1):

Start demo recording: Demorec

Stop demo recording: Stopdemo

The demos are saved in the ..\UnrealTournament\system directory with file extension DEM.

Start demo replay: Demoplay

The parameters for Demoplay are:

?noframecap noframecap plays the demo back as fast as possible. This option is assumed if timedemo 1 is enabled.

?timebased timebased gives a smoother playback if the playback machine is significantly slower than the recording machine.

?3rdperson 3rdperson lets you fly around a first person demo as a spectator.

?loop loop makes the demo run endless (works from patch 413 on)

For example: demoplay mydemo?3rdperson?timebased

In 3rd person view you can switch from player to player by hitting the fire button. (Problem: See below)

In any mode you can use the BEHINDVIEW console command to switch view.

Thanx!!!! (% And what about converting demos to AVI? Is it possible?

[[§Ŕ] ŤhěxĐâŕkśîđěŕ]

Afaik no but I'm always wrong.

[GreatEmerald]

You can't *convert* them. Yet you can recapture it from your screen and save it as an AVI file.

Thanx, I already found info about MovieUnreal++
But I have new problem. When I trying 2 run a demo, game crashes with loooooong error message 8( Patch v.436. I tried 2 run demo with UDemoManager -- it is'nt help 8( What can it be?

[[§Ŕ] ŤhěxĐâŕkśîđěŕ]

If you have U1 too, maybe you should try record and play a demo there so you can see whether is the problem in your comp or teh game. BTW, what gfx card do you have? Something old, new or something in between?

[GreatEmerald]

Your log should also say what's wrong.

What do you mean "Pobaltaem", Ikuto? Or does the Google Translate Script refuse to recognise your speech?

[[§Ŕ] ŤhěxĐâŕkśîđěŕ]

I know cyrillic letters but barely understand anything. ;P

I should start learning Ukrainian/Russian too. xD

Dunno for sure if that also aplies to UT, but for Unreal you can only playback a recording if the playback is done with the exact same setup. Which means if theres a mod running or a certain patch installed, the playback needs to have all those. Oné part missing and playback will fail.

And i asume this aplies to UT as well.


As for recording you could use fraps from www.fraps.com

I use Fraps too. The only bad is that the unregistered version can only record 30 secs of video afaik.
