Title: DEMOS not displaying list of players
Post by: HITMAN on February 07, 2009, 09:47:22 AM
Lately, I've been making a lot of demos but whenever the player list (or the player's score) is shown, it appears distorted and jumbled. There would be missing players or multiple copies of someone's name in the list during the demo playback. Not sure if this is a bug or a setting that I need to be adjusted.

Where is my name in this screenshot?!?

Try turning g_synchronusClients on and off again befor recording, e.g. /bind o "toggle g_synchronusClients;wait 3;toggle g_synchronusClients;record"

Tried it out. After recording, I played back and an error occured: (Unknown Event: 66) :-O

what does the g_synchronusClients do exactly?

Do you use a mod for doing playback?

Event 66 is EV_PROXIMITY_MINE_STICK (if I counted correctly)

It could also explain the scoreboard

im using the BASEOA mod and recording from the same MOD. I'm guessing this doesnt happen to anyone else; Everyone else's demo show a working scoreboard?

This is a demo of myself. i think its fine when you demo someone else via spectating; Normally, when you are fragged, the board appears. In my demos, the board appears but with either multiple copies of the  same name or just no names at all. Its the strangest thing :-/
