Hatless Update Demo Fix

So everyone hates how Valve again broke demos.
This time they renamed some entities and that screwed everything up. This plugin will restore the old names.
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?l54ex5tzv017037
Put the TF2DemoFix.dll in your Team Fortress 2/tf/addons folder.
In your console write plugin_load addons/TF2DemoFix.dll
It’ll say something about insecure mode, you’ll have to restart tf2 when you’re done with the old demos. If it refuses to load due to missing signature add -insecure to your launch params (don’t forget to remove after you’re done with the demos).
Source code is included.
Q: I get an error message when I load it!
A: Post error message.
Q: It crashes!
A: Uhm idk.
Q: Ingame voice doesn’t work!
A: sv_use_steam_voice 0
Q: Doesn’t work with my demo!
A: Paste console log after you try to play the demo.
Q: I don’t get any console log!
A: con_filter_enable 0
Q: This is a DLL file, I don’t trust you!
A: Don’t use it.

It works! Great job, pal.
Nice work. Thanks.
Maybe one thing should know – this probably won’t work with the pldx tool since that has different launch options entirely so if you want to record/capture with the plugin then you might need a movie HUD such as;

edit:
Ignore that, put con_filter_enable 0 in the console and then it should work with the PLDX tool. You don’t need to put -insecure in your launch options btw so ignore what I said above this.

Absolutely great job !
Strange, this appears on the console for me
“No valid signature found for c:programassteamsteamappsvaskituhmaiateam fortress 2tfaddonsTF2DemoFix.dll
Unable to load plugin “addons/TF2DemoFix.dll””
and it won’t load any demo.

Try restarting TF2 and loading it as the very first thing you do.
If that doesn’t work add -insecure to the launch params of tf2. (don’t forget to remove when you want to play on servers again).
my Problem is:
My old Demos are working but the ones i Downloaded from other people wont work in PLDX.
dont forget -insecure to load unsigned plugins
( but you cant connect to a lot of servers i guess so just remove -insecure)
I have -insecure in my Launch Options and it works cuz I cant join Servers on TF2 and in TF2 itself all old Demos are working but in PLDX just my old demos are working and the ones I Downloaded from other people are not working.
I know really strange ^^

Follow this part of the Q&A:

A: Paste console log after you try to play the demo.Q: I don’t get any console log!
A: con_filter_enable 0
Like I said in Tf2 everything works and in PLDX I get the error which showed up before this Fix when trying to play an old Demo:

Are you sure the plugin loaded correctly when using pldx?
Because the error you get should really be fixed by the plugin :/
