how do i tape a demo or take a screenshot?

[Dath Maximus]

type /screenshot

 

 

or better yet

 

bind (whatever) screenshot

 

such as bind x screenshot

[Sivy]

well to take a screenshot you just have to press the print screen key then go to paint or paintshop pro or whatever you use and click on paste.

[Darth Groovy]

just use a digital camera

screenshots are cool. tapeing a demo is more cooler.

[Murdoch]

So how do you tape a demo then?

The cl_avidemo command is used to convert an existing demo into an avi (actually it creates a lot of screenshots that can be turned into an avi movie) . Cl_avidemo 20 takes 20 shots per second . If you use it in game it will create a lot of lag, so only use it to convert a demo into a movie.

 

To record a demo create a textfile in the base folder and paste

//REcord Demo - Press F12

set record1 "g_synchronousclients 1; record; g_synchronousclients 0; echo Recording Started; bind f12 vstr record0"

set record0 "stoprecord; echo Recording Stopped; g_synchronousclients 0; bind f12 vstr record1"

bind f12 "vstr record1"

in . Save the file as autoexec.cfg .

The F12 key will start/stop recording in game.

binding screenshot is so much better cuz that way you can push it the very second you want something taken, otherwise if you have a skill at typing "s-c-r-e-e-n-s-h-o-t" really really fast.
