Playing Demo Issues
« on: January 31, 2008, 12:31:55 PM »
Well, I record a demo, and often, when I play it, it stops during some point... And it is not finished. What causes this? I know that overflow causes them to stop, but what else? It just stops at one point and doesn't continue... But it is not finished... Is there a way to fix this? And do you know what causes demos not to load fully?

Quake 2 3.20: Stops the demo immediately.
R1Q2: Restarts it from starting point.

Thanks,
Teo

Demos will not usually work across map changes if that's what is happening. Lag should not stop recording. It would help if you could post a demo, also verify your binds/aliases to make sure you aren't accidentally pressing "stop" somewhere, and that you have enough disk space :).

Well "stop" is not binded anywhere... And I have 89 GB free disk space (he-he) so I don't know if that's the problem.
I usually lag everywhere, but the demo recording isn't stopping. I have experienced that when 'overflow' happens, the demo stops, but that didn't happen to me.

The demo is recorded in the mod RTQ, so I doubt anyone can see it.

Quake II is not 27 years old. I refuse to accept THAT much time has gone by.
