I’ve successfully done slowmo captures from STV-demoes with host_framerate and host_timescale. However, whenever I go slow motion in any of my (or others’) POV-demoes, the movement gets jagged. Models bounce, and the whole sporadically screen jumps.

I’ve tried tinkering with interp, timescale, framerate. -But nothing seems to bite.
The problem is visible both when playing the demo, when recording, and playing back the recorded footage.

Anyone had similar problems, with fixes?

umm…did you tried with sv_cheats 1?
host_timescale needs sv cheats

if you do the slow-mo with the gui? use the %-bar

tesco: No, I dont use the gui, as it doesnt make a difference during actual recording. But, for the record, the jaggedy movements are still present if I playback with less % in the gui.

Skyride: Great suggestion. Unfortunately it didnt make a difference. Neither during normal launch, nor with the pldx movie tool launch.

EDIT: I came across this thread: http://www.gotfrag.com/tf2/forums/thread/421262/
Can it really be that its WIN7 screwing it over? i mean, the problem only occurs for POVs and not STV-demos

Same problem applies for Vista I’m afraid Torden :[

I too, have had no problems with STV demos, and some POV demos work flawlessly, but other POV demos absolutely refuse to playback smoothly (when recording at high fps).

I think it’s a packetloss issue which is recorded by the POV demo, whereas STV demos do not have any packetloss (or do they?).
