Serious Q4 issues. O.o

[Krazy_K]

Am having a big issue with quake 4. When I recently tried to download a demo, I saved it into my documents, but when I went to extract it to the Q4 base file, quake 4 was no where in my files list for some odd reason. I had to put the cd in to get it to show up in the files which is weird. So then after putting the cd in I tried to extract the files to the q4 base, and it asked me for a password saying that the file was password protected. So then i just tried to extract the files somewhere else and just drag the files into q4 base and then it asked me if i wanted to copy this file on the disc. I don't know wtf to do, and am asking to make sure if this is right or not so I don't fuck the game disc up.

confusing question

i assume your moving the extracted files to
idSoftware\Quake 4\q4base\demos

you can't fuck up the game and if you do just re-install

By what you've said, the compressed demo you downloaded might be password protected.

idSoftware\Quake 4\q4base\demos

There is no "demos" file in my q4 base file. Theres just 3 files that say FRA, ITA, and ESP. Have no idea what they are.

By what you've said, the compressed demo you downloaded might be password protected

Well it's not just demos, its levels too. And if theyre password protected then how am I supposed to download them?

[jester!]

You have to create the demos folder in your baseq4 folder.

Ok well I tried it and it gave me an error message saying "Windows could not support this CD-R format. Please try another disc."

OMFG sorry guys I just found out what I was doing wrong. Sorry :icon32: But while I'm here whats the cmd to play demos?

recordNetDemo = record

stopNetDemo = stop recording

playNetDemo filename = play back your demo
