for normal demos - /g_synchronousclients 1 /record /g_synchronousclients 0

(remember to have sv_fps in a similar number as com_maxfps if you're recording offline, or the demo will come out choppy)

if you wanna capture it to a separate video file, than Fraps usually works good for me (altho i'll bet there are better programs for that)

fraps = total utter Bravo Sierra. use cl_avidemo.

there are pretty detailed tutorials and explanations on the best way of extracting media from q3 demos and a bunch of other stuff on www.own-age.com. check the forums. must read for q3 movie makers.

theres no special command for e+. its a generic command for q3. the command is /cl_avidemo n. where n stands for the fps u desire. so if u put say /cl_avidemo 30, then q3 will start taking screenshots at 30 frames per second.

once this is done u can use a software (like a movieediting sw) or something like tgahook to convert this set of frames to a movie.

neways ull find pretty detailed explanations on own-age.com. just read it.

there is a limit of 1000 screenshots though.

so extract frags, or sections of frags at a time.

or you can use Camping Gaz's tga hook. it will automaticaly convert to JPG instead of TGA. since you will probably extract at higher resolution then downsize to half, its great! also way more screens can be captured.

and not to mention automatic frame blending

WARNING!

by running it you wont be able to join PB servers anymore, so use the CGaz hook on another install of q3!

personaly i use q3mme, but it is still buggy with q3e+, so Cgaz's hook might be the thing for you.
