Hi,

According to the excessiveplus client documentation I have made a bind for myself, to record easily demos ingame.

//-------------------------------------------------------
// RECORD DEMO
//-------------------------------------------------------
seta xp_startrecordDefault "$(name)_$(rdate)_$(time)_$(map)_$(servername)"
set demo "vstr demo00"
set demo00 "set play sound/misc/menu2;echo2 ^7RECORDING DEMO:^2 ON;g_synchronousClients 1;record ;g_synchronousClients 0;set demo vstr demo01"
set demo01 "set play sound/misc/menu2;echo2 ^7RECORDING DEMO:^1 OFF;stoprecord;set demo vstr demo00"
vstr demo01
bind n "vstr demo"
//-------------------------------------------------------

But the following line is useless here and demos are saved as "demo0001, demo0002, demo0003, ..." :

seta xp_startrecordDefault "$(name)_$(rdate)_$(time)_$(map)_$(servername)"

I guess this line is for MVDs only whereas MVDs cannot be start while playing.

So is it possible to record random demos with this kind of name : "$(name)_$(rdate)_$(time)_$(map)_$(servername)" ?

Re: Recording demos

use correct commands. record is not that same as startrecord ;-]

also that sync clients is not needed anymore if you use startrecord command. if iam wrong, please correct me.
