HOW do you make a Timedemo?

[sandman_aus]

Hia, can someone tell me how to make a timedemo to bench COD4 before I install my new 9600GT? I've searched this site & with google, to no avail. I found mention of it in a FPS tips thread here, but it assumes you know how..

Help much appreciated.;)

This should work, I think you mean a timedemo in COD4 yes? Well, here are the commands.


Recording a demo

Whilst in game, you can pull up your console and type /record demoname

You will see a little counter at bottom left of your screen showing you the recording kbs counting up.

To stop recording, open console again and type /stoprecord

A much easier way to do this is to add the following code to your config_mp.cfg file found in your player profile folder.

Playing back a recorded demo

Unfortunately, the guys at IW haven't made a good job of developing this function in CoD4

Recorded demos are stored in "C:Program FilesActivisionCall of Duty 4 - Modern Warfaremaindemos" folder

However, you will need to cut/paste your demos from this folder and paste them into:

"C:Program FilesActivisionCall of Duty 4 - Modern WarfareModsModWarfaredemos"

If the demos folder doesn't exist, simply create it.

With that done, run cod4 multiplayer and select 'Mods' then 'Modwarefare'

Open up console and type /demo demoname

This will play your recorded demo
