Topic: Some good news

Well, my internet is working again so I could commit my change. These changes includes loads of smaller changes here and there but the biggest change is this.

Client and server side demo recording! Yes, you read it right. This includes a nice demo viewer with seekbar (scrubbable), pause, play, slow motion and fast forward options.

There is a few quirks with it and the file size hasn't been optimized yet but it will definitely make be in the 0.5.0 release. An hour or two extra with it will make it really awesome.

Until then, cheerio.

Re: Some good news

One short question: Is this demo recording a file of events that will be "played" by the engine or is it a discrete captured video, e.g. a Theora file?

Question? search function
Short movies? Lappi's link loft
Teeworlds info'n'tuts on gfx? Landil's sketchbook

Re: Some good news

It's a classical demo recording (replay). The file format will be specific for teeworlds and will change between major updates as the network protocol updates. Later on we can add functions to export them to .avi files and such.

Re: Some good news

then you need to check if some virus scanner report false positives (e.g. keylogger results).

Re: Some good news

Demo recording is the system for recording player actions and replaying them in the game.

We'll move on to rendering / exporting after this is done and awesome.

A really amazing feature, matricks. Nice work. <3

The proposition "I am the center" need never be uttered. It is the assumption upon which all certainty and all doubt turns.

In my opinion demo recording should mostly be used to take advantage of experience. I mean that this will allow teams and players to improve strategies and moves by being able to watch back the games.

Re: Some good news

Do you know what would be great? Exporting those demo files to video files. But that's too much wink .

GREAT WORK! I hope you'll release 0.5.0 version soon.

I agree. I was ironic.

But historically, demo-recording is commonly used to show off perfection of skills, lucky-shots etc. And that's a good thing, it's a good source of inspiration. Not to mention it can be used in anti-cheat issues as well.

I think demo recording is a very important part of a game, especially multiplayer games. So it will bring Teeworlds up a number of notches!!
