Hideki · I've finally... made game recording on hw2 woooork

The only thing required prolly is some at least 1 to 2 years old cpu and it'll prolly work.

hf and i'll hf watching how tfl plays :D

also, someone should have file hosting. though if u can somehow pass me the files over, i can host.

WOW if it works I might just have to try to get a bunch of guys on and play 1 gg of hw2 for recording purposes. LOL!

that would be totally awesome if i could watch you guys in action... see where i go wrong all the time :D

Hideki

well, for you 'hedi' worshippers lol, here's a sample i took. (be warned its about 20mb in size and do 'save as' instead of directly clicking)

it was taken in single player and i felt 0 lag with it.
and you also need xvid decoder installed to view it.

Interesting. Still wish hw2 had a proper replay system.

Hideki

yeah, thats been talked about here but no one actually pulled it off. i never really looked in the code, but this can be very interesting too, since you can view the game from any angle of any moment going back and forth. but vid is also interesting in the way you can see from the player's view itself.

glad to see if someone finally got it to work...
btw can anyone make an iso of their cd for me... because i have the key just my cd cracked in half so i need to reinstall it... thanks a bunch!

Hideki, I thought this was going to be something you could see every part of the map on? I must have misread what you wrote. Now on a 2nd read I did misread it. Well if someone sees a full game with chat involved then you can have a good idea what is being said and done.

Id say if it is done all the players should do it so you could watch the game from all points of view. That would be really awesome. You could see the strategy involved, chat, and then all of the tactics.

The idea of a replayer is that basically you need a program that stores everything a player inputs into the game.

Then it loads up the game and reproduces the player inputs and the game should play out exactly the same. I know someone made a 3rd party replayer for TA , but that was 1997 technology(simplar coding) and these were semi-pro Programmers who also made TA Spring.

yes, its just a vid from a single person. yeah, if everyone took, that's awesome, but you have to also know, that single vid can go beyond 200mb (which is very good ratio for what it offers), which means, it's alsmot a gb and over for a single game besides, not everyone have a machine capable of recording without lag, and I can still store them if you want lol, but not everyone wants to use much bandwidth to view them all.

I'm thinking to turn it into steamable media at the least, so people don't need to download the whole freaking 200mb or so to start watching. and this needs like 180kb/s of bandwidth, and while some people can achieve that from japan, some can't, so i don't know what's best though right now.
