Mostly for Adam, but an interesting tidbit for everyone:
First off, here are links to the demo files I created on TF2:

To View, place in your "tf" folder inside your main TF2 directory.
- Start up TF2
- Bring up Console
- type the following: playdemo XXX (where XXX = filename (not .dem!))
- It will take a minute to load, a bit longer than a map usually takes.
- While viewing, press Shift+F2 to bring up VCR console.
Grab Popcorn and Enjoy!
For everyone else, these demos bring a new level of fun to all Valve games.
This works in TF2 and L4D...but I think it will work in ANY Valve game. (Perhaps any game played through steam? Need to test!)
While playing the game (at any time) Bring up the console and type the following: record XXX (where XXX =/= porn)
This will start the recording. When you want it to stop, type "Stop" ...simple enough!
These save directly to the tf folder, and occupy very little space. I have been demoing every round that I play (separately, of course), and deleting all the ones where nothing interesting happens (which is most, honestly). It has been fun to rewatch some of these, though. |
