[Release] Demo Manager v3.2

[Azura]

Not at present. I can't find the exec function that does this. It's probably part of the engine.

[SesioN]

ehh crap then... coz if it would be possible to use a command then I would just click the bind while a important game....


And since autodemorec dosn't always work, its shit :/

[Azura]

You could always try a switch bind where pressing a key changes the bind to another and then another and so on. As for autorecording, I'm sorry to say that I can't help since it could be due to anything.

[SesioN]

You can have my logs, there is no error but it dosn't start recording in this case :/

That's your ini file. The log file ends with *.log.

[Just_Me]

Use a console command "demorec"

[SesioN]

Sorry I've made it late night and I didn't copy the proper one

Could you also post the contents of your udemo.ini file ? I see you're recording demos to a custom path.

Log: Opening demo driver to read demo file 'D:\Gry\UT99\AutoDemo\DM-Deck16][_2007-4_23__13-34.dem'

Also, this sort of line seems to be absent (example taken from my own logs) :

Log: Attempting to record demo F:\UnrealTournament\System\MH-KrallFortress110_4-23_18-39-54.dem

Ok. The next time you play online, make sure you have a demorec bind handy to test whether a demo is already recording. Also have a look at your log to see if you have a line starting as follows :

Log: Attempting to record demo x:\UnrealTournament\System\blah.dem

Nothing new you're telling me, coz I know that befor.

I was asking if its possible to check the code becouse its bugged. Or if its possible to do a bind like "Record demo %MapName_%Year%Month%Day___%Hour%Minute"

Now thanks for your time, however don't anwser anymore if you can't help. Hope anyone else will care and know how to fix/deal with it

[jamaica]

yes, it's starting to happen to me too, i always had auto demorec but sometimes it fails to demo.. anywayz:

me and a lot of guys have an error playing some specific demos, due to anthchecker actors: we've found out that by modeplaying the demo on console (demoplay frag.dem) it plays nicely. many other guys on IRC had that problem, so its not a specific server/ini issues.

[Azura]

Ok, well I'll attempt to be helpful with the very little information there is. I've heard that autorecording doesn't seem to work properly on EUT servers. Do you two happen to play on EUT servers ?

jamaica > There is an option since version 3.1 that allows you to "kill" any problematic actors. The options are in the udemo.ini file. At present the default ini will "zap" ACReplicationInfo. Have you encountered any other actors that cause a crash ?

My server dosn't have EUT, and it happens often.

Solved!! but..

the option --> IllegalActors[2]=ACReplicationInfo isn't in the udemo.ini of the zip package in your post. maybe you should update it?

[Azura]

Anthrax's post . I'm just the annoying git that got him to add a few updates to the original demo manager .

[jamaica]

you both own for making a bit of UT alive, so i guess i love ya guys =]

[jamaica]

btw, any1 knows what can be causing this? ^^

This may be common knowledge, but NBSP prevents demomanager from operating, and the only error message shows up in-game when trying to access the mod from the menu screen. If you have it set to auto-record there's likely no error message at all.

[Azura]

Indeed. Also, LeagueAS kicks players using demo manager because there's a reference to "oldskoolhack". I think it's this hack that makes autorecording possible.

jamaica > I've only seen that error once but can't remember what caused it.
