I want to capture some demo’s into avi and it walways worked prefect

i use this command : startmovie name TGA 30

It worked perfect till now , now suddenly all my TGA screens that are created from the demo are just black screens. ( while it supposed to be ingame screenshots to make the avi )

I tryed other demo’s , also demo’s i have captured before and they all come out as black screens…

does anyone have a solution for this ?

help ? :/

Hey dats!

just do

host_framerate 30
startmovie omgipwnnubz

or maybe you changed some driver settings etc?

Exoronic

tryed it and still black screens :/

set mat_queue_mode back to -1. You’ll need to set this probably everytime you goto the desired tick on the demo, then execute the record command.

Exoronic

its always on -1 here , i change it every game manually to 2.

anyone else an idea ? :/

i’d say use fraps instead of startmovie command. less strain on your pc aswell.

fraps is fresh fail.
Give me a PC which can handle 1280×720, 16xAF & 4x AA, and record that in GOOD quality with FRAPS…

and i’ll offer XXX complaisances to that person :O

I change it manually too, but when you watch back a demo it changes it. Even when you goto a new tick it will revert it back to “2” I had this exact same problem when I started using the “2” command. Btw does it seem to record it really fast?, because this is what happens when I forget to turn it back to “-1” If it’s not this then I got no idea.

waebi you should use my pc then.
could record that at 30 fps. just don’t turn on vsync.

and at more than 30fps? :P FIX, STABLE fps?

i dont have a hamster powered PC (7900gtx mobile), but i prefer that way…

and yes i’ve experienced it ingame a few times, when i tried to take a deathcam screenshot (jpeg/tga doesnt matter there) and the resulting image was black…
