New Feature: Demo Rewind

[XtremeBain]

It should be a client-side option like cg_autoaction that is found in other Quake-related games. It lets the player choose to automatically demo/screenshot/both all the maps they play.

This is totally off topic but XBAIN STILL POSTS?!?!!?!??

and back on Topic.

this would actually be a good feature for the few video editors in dp.

I second this, especially the slow motion part. I love watching people kick a$$ in S.L.O.W M.O...

Also a demo pause would be cool.

Try typing "set deathmatch 0" at the console before loading a demo and see if you can pause.

It's like a video from whats happening ingame, but from different player's views. Also it contains alot of infos about players, chat can be browsed like ingame, and it also shows the executed commands.

a demo in paintball2 is a replay of your game, you can start the demo with writing "record demoname" in your console (the button under ESC) and you can stop it with writing "stop"  in your console.
there are servers which start recording a demo automatically if you join the server, most of the time those servers are matchservers/private servers with password protection which you can rent online (otb-server.de, ic3y.de). but there are also normal public server which records demos automatically.

if you want to view a demo, open paintball2 --> play --> play recorded demo. if you recorded the demo with "record test" for example, you will find the demo under the name "test" in your demo folder.

feel free to PM me if you have any questions

Hello mon1tor & lukip!
thank you for explaining demos to me!
Last dumb question: is banterous a demo-hoster?
Is it correct that this demo-hoster is down?

[mRokita]

Yes, banterous was demo hoster, and yeah, unfortunately it's down.
We are working on a replacement though
