I click in record game and enter the name but when i play and look again to stop the record i find that udemo never start to record pls help me :S or a tutria

Make sure you edit this line in unrealtournament.ini
DemoRecordingDevice=udemo.uDemoDriver
and set directory in "path" tab, for example D:\Games\UnrealTournament\Demos\

[uranus]

You can define the record path in the DemoManager interface in UT. I find that I have to restart UT for changes, such as new demos to be recognized by DemoManager. Also, make sure you give your demo the '.dem' extension like, 'awesomesnipermonsterkill.dem'

[.reaven*]

yes i change that in Ut.ini .
I will try that of .Dem :] could be because of Ace6.0 or 7 ?
or patch 436 ? i should use 440 ?

Changelist so far:
* [FIXED] Rewind function restored for v436/432
* [FIXED] Scoreboard no longer rendering after seeking
* [FIXED] Several problems caused by non-standard folder structures
* [ADDED] Rewind support for UT v440/451
* [CHANGED] .NET Framework 1.1 no longer needed

I'll be moving the flag fix to the native side because it can't be done properly in pure uscript. Clantag recognition can also be added.

Other interesting stuff:
* I've been debugging the v4.51b demo playback issue. v4.51b is fully network compatible with earlier UT versions (down till v4.32) but due to new functionality in Core and Engine (UTracing etc) the PackageMaps and ClassNetCaches used by v4.51b demorecorders don't match the ones used by playback clients with earlier versions. I'm not too sure how this is fixed for normal internet play though. The only possible fixes I can see at the moment are to either have udemo load the v4.51b Engine/Core during demo playback or to let udemo log an extra packagemap file during demo recording. Might take a while before this is fixed.

* http://utgl.unrealadmin.org/udemo/udemo.png Haven't tested much but most of it seems to be working now...

Is that still being worked on? What's the status on this project? Greetings

is it possible to merge in Poema's movie demo manager at your end?

That'd be like the ultimate demo manager

[AnthraX]

I'll see what I can do.

[knugster]

Thanks, hope it works out!
In the process of making a movie, but most of my demos makes MDM crash due to UTDC 2.0c, while rypelcam crashes every time I try to play a demo recorded on a smartctf server.

I noticed trying to download missing files from a redirect will always crash me, do we have any idea why?
Sorry if this has been mentioned, I can't open page 2 for some reason o_O

[knugster]

Did you get a look at merging in movie demo manager?

[SesioN]

AnthraX I would like to say that after all the fine-tuning you made to demo manager it finally became almost perfect, it hasn't been failing me and works like a harm so really great job there and thank you for it!!

Now think about how often players have many GB's of auto-rec demos that are sadly unmarked for good frags, at some point it gets pretty much impossible to watch them all and if you want to do a frag-movie you're doomed, right?

Okey so imagine having a bind, that lets you automatically mark the demo the moment you made an awesome frag... oh boy.. awesome.. we are saved

Yep that is pretty much the last thing that demo manager is missing, if possible please add up a feature that would let us semi-auto mark the demos with basic info about good frags. Example:

DM-Deck16][_2010-12_17__0-03__Fnumber[minute_second].dem

The moment a player presses the "good frag" bind it would save the time and after the demo stops recording, add it to the demo name (Or have a separated frags.txt)

What does it need?

* Support for multiple good frags in one demo
* Possibility to assign it to a custom key

DM-Deck16][_2010-12_17__0-03__F1[03-15]_F2[06-33]F3[13-22] etc.

Thanks again!

What's the point of the download servers for demo manager when it downloads .uz files and demo manager does not decompress these resulting in 'corrupt' files?

Or does this happen because most of these default servers do have corrupt files? :x

[SesioN]

You just use one server, http://uz.ut-files.com/
