Making demos into movies

[DreaM]

Is it possible and if yes how?

[NiGGaZ]

what do u mean 'demos'?

While viewing the demo, record with an external program :)

[blooddog_90]

A demo is a recorded counterstrike match. You can replay it like a video ingame!

Recording with an external program uses often much ram-memory ... so this is the best method:

 

Open your demo file. (ex.: viewdemo greatmatch.dem)

Go to the scene you want to see.

Type into console: startmovie <name> <fps>

 

Example:

startmovie massownage 26

 

... this will create a series of bmp files in your cstrike folder which are named "massownage...".

- exactly 26 of them -> per second! (minimum for movies is 26)

 

Then you should download a video tool, which can handle bmp->avi(mpg or what ever).

Known tools:

VideoMach - Link

Bmp2Avi - Link

 

 

... hope I could help you =)

Thank'ya bloodd but you say that programs take a lot of ram memory but the pictures of a 2 min movie were around 5 GB ram :D

@Hax0r

There is a Solution called "Line Out record". Mayn programs can handle the record of wave sounds.

Just record this sounds once

 

@DreaM

Ahhww... yes. Now I notice ... I forgot something to tell XD..

 

You have to use Codecs when converting bmp->avi. Just use x264 or something like that. Guys you knwo all thos trash :D - xVid DivX x284(H.264)

 

But DreaM was my post helpful? Better said: How do you make your movies now :D ?
