[hlds] Record to specific directory

2010-03-13 Thread Christoffer Pedersen
Hi there

Im trying to make my source tv recording to a specific directory  
through a alias. I have succeeded with recording directly from the  
command itself with:

tv_record /path/to/demo/test.dem

It worked, and the demo got recorded to the folder with the name  
test.dem. I want to use this as an alias, as my customers shouldn't  
write all that stuff. I simply want them to write record filename  
and make it record it to /path/to/demo/filename.dem . I have  
therefore tried to make an alias which says:

alias record tv_record /path/to/demo/

I then tried to do record test.dem, but it recorded to /path/to/ 
demo/.dem (without any filename). How can i make the alias include the  
filename?

Best regards

Only thing I can think of is seeing if the srcds console has some sort 
of scripting (as in, seta var value, inc var e.t.c).

Otherwise I'm sure there's a server-side SM plugin that does what you 
want :)

Re: [hlds] Record to specific directory

2010-03-13 Thread Mark Gunnett
Of course there is. It was actually written in response to an ex-clan member
of mine's request for a plugin that would auto-record when 2 or more players
were in the server, and record to a specific directory. It also uses the
auto-record format for naming the demos. We use it on all our public servers
to record what goes on. What? Someone hacking... SourceTV demo FTW. But this
is beside the point. A plugin has to be configured client side for a GSP.
Well I mean the GSP can do it for the client, but then you have to worry
about the client tweaking where the demo goes.

Re: [hlds] Record to specific directory

2010-03-13 Thread Kaspars
I actually had a similar request a loong time ago... I'm on linux,
tho. Using the tv_autorecord 1. Due to the security measurements I don't
allow to write to orangebox/tf directory, therefore it is a requirement to
write demos to a specific directory. I'm not sure what valve is cooking so
long, because it's just a simple cvar to record demos to a specific
directory. Anyways, I did a little research and found out that you can just
change (in hex mode) string auto- to demo/ inside the engine file and
all the demos will be recorded to the orangebox/tf/demo directory. The
prefix auto will be dropped from the demo name, but that's not a big deal
compared to the benefit. You can use perl to change the string: perl -pi -e
's/auto-/demo\//' engine_i486.so however I'm not sure about the windows, but
it should be similar.
