THIS might help.

(Again bumping for FAQ update on the main page!)

open the console ( esc + shift ) and type

Code: Select all

ply demos/DEMONAME

(DEMONAME = name of the demo) and press return

with commands like

Code: Select all

slowmo x

(x = number)
you can play the demo faster ( x = more than 1) or slower (x = less than 1) , with 0 you stop it

I don't know how to name a demo!!!!! :shock:

[Mirio]

oki well the demos are in ~nexuiz/data/demos
and for example a demoname is like in the red box

[divVerent]

Someone should make a .cmd file for Windows that:

- gets a name of a demo as %1
- copies it into Nexuiz/data/demos, if it is not already inside Nexuiz/data
- runs "nexuiz -demo filename", where filename is the path with Nexuiz/data removed

If someone can make that, one can assign it to the data type .dem and make them double clickable from the Explorer. That probably would be the best and simplest solution.

You should record some before you can watch them Enable "Demo recording" in the Options menu.
