demo recorder script

Subject: demo recorder script Mon Jan 12, 2009 11:28 am

this is a script that allows you to use one key to record and stop demos..
set the key at the bottom..

i saved this as "demorecorder.cfg" in the cfg subfolder...
then added the following line to my autoexec.cfg:
"exec demorecorder.cfg"

the demos will be in your tf2 folder..
to play them type "playdemo demo1 (or demo2 etc)" in the console..

this should work in l4d as well as tf2.

Code:: alias demo1 "record demo1; alias demo demo2"
alias demo2 "stop; alias demo demo3"
alias demo3 "record demo2; alias demo demo4"
alias demo4 "stop; alias demo demo5"
alias demo5 "record demo3; alias demo demo6"
alias demo6 "stop; alias demo demo7"
alias demo7 "record demo4; alias demo demo8"

i found this other one that might be something to consider.. i just dont know if it works.. supposedly it allows you to add the name of the demo which is pretty useful.

alias dem0 "dem1"
alias dem1 "developer 1;echo Enter name of demo....;developer 0;messagemode record;alias dem0 dem2"
alias dem2 "developer 1;echo Demo Stopped; developer 0;stop;alias dem0 dem1"

bind "x" "dem0"

Subject: Getting to an AVI file Mon Jan 12, 2009 5:09 pm

Now that you've followed Nova's script to save and record a demo file, here's how to generate a nice AVI file.

Download and install the K-Lite codec pack:
K-Lite Codec

This will install a bunch of codecs for decoding/encoding most video files you find on the internet.

Fire up the game you recorded the demo for and bring up the developer console. Console commands are in bold

startmovie moviename avi

Where moviename is the name of the resulting AVI file you want to create (don't add the .avi extension it will add it for you.)
And avi (note the spaces between moviename and avi

This will pop up a window asking what kind of encoding you want. Chose the MPEG-4 encoding.

playdemo demoname

Where demoname is what you previously recorded.

Now the demo will play back (with NO sound) and look really choppy and crappy. This is normal.

When it's done, stop the movie

endmovie

The resulting AVI file should be in the install directory of the game.
For L4D it's C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Left 4 Dead\
TF2 would be C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\yourname\TF2 (I think)

You should end up with a nice compact (relatively speaking) MPEG4 AVI file of the demo.
