[hlds] Record to specific directory
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 Christoffer Pedersen Adm.

Re: [hlds] Record to specific directory
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 :) On 13/03/2010 5:21 PM, Christoffer Pedersen wrote: Hi there Im trying to make my source tv recording to a specific directory through a alias.

Re: [hlds] Record to specific directory
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
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. 2010/3/13 Mark Gunnett mgunnett4...@gmail.com Of course there is.
