Title: How can I read all the starting text, record a demo?
Post by: LynxLynx on June 13, 2006, 01:24:31 pm

When Tremulous starts, it shows some text, but I don't have time to read it. How could I see this text?  

What should I do, so that I could record a demo, when I press key "j" and stop recording when I press "k"? Is there way to auto-record game every time?

As long as you have a valid ~ key on your keyboard that is. It just happens that such key doesn't exist in many foreign layouts :wink:

The key is the one above TAB and to the left of the 1 key.

Open up the console with ~ as said and enter the following

bind j "g_synchronousclients 1;record ;g_synchronousclients 0"
bind k "stoprecord"

Does trem still need g_synchronousclients? Or did timbo take that out? Anyway this works for me.

Also following, a toggle key for recording demos which can be put in config.

set startdemo "g_synchronousclients 1;record ;g_synchronousclients 0; bind k vstr stopdemo"
set stopdemo "stoprecord; ; bind k vstr startdemo"
bind k "vstr startdemo"

Thx for your answer, but there is text there, in the beginning, which is not all in console. Look carefully when program starts.

Ty for this tip, it works well.

All I saw was the console scrolling, then the developer logo, then trem.  What are you seeing?
