@sittingduck

We need a .dm71 file, released under GPLv2 license, done with "vanilla" (stock, base...) OA 0.8.8.

Then, what do you think?

Should I do another one, in the graphic-heavy map of the first demo, but as spectator like in the third?
Or do you think one of these three demos could already be ok and end up in 0.8.8?

Fromhell, you are the leader... what would you like?

Something like that last demo would work just fine. Lots of action, basic map, not too long.
It could just be bots.

Hi! I've done a fourth demo. Again, it is GPLv2 ("copying" file included). What do you think about it?

About demos, a question:
- Settings g_synchronousclients 1 before recording a demo allows DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Timedemo#Recording_a_best-quality_demo]to record a "better quality" one. But while playing a demo? I noticed that if you have synchronousclients enabled when playing a demo, "s n c" letters appear inside the "lagometer", and they do not appear if I play the same demo with synchronousclients disabled. Any info about that?

Another question: why does here they say to set g_synchronousclients 1, then record, then g_synchronousclients 0 and then stoprecord? :-/ In practice, to begin recording with it enabled, and then to continue recording with it disabled. Is sounds strange to me...

g_synchronousclients 1 will will let you record a smoother demo.
It is not required for playback.

I think I read somewhere that this "setting it back to 0" trick doesn't work since even if it was set to 1 when starting the record. Probably can't cumulate the advantages.

Are you referring to the sentence DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Timedemo#Recording_a_best-quality_demo]here?
