q4replay - Demo Player **0.4.1**

Post by funktion »

q4replay is a Quake4 demo player that I have programmed myself and wanted to extend its use to the general public. If your tired of manually typing in commands in the console to playback demos or renaming demos with rediculous long names, then this is the solution you've been waiting for.

Website:: http://q4replay.quoster.com/
Download:: http://web.syr.edu/~dmriti/q4replay/q4r ... -setup.exe
ScreenShot:: http://web.syr.edu/~dmriti/q4replay/q4replay.jpg

Version 0.4.1 is out. NOTE: If you had any problems with q4replay, just re-download the file, it has been hotfixed!

Enjoy.

Looks nice and simple, to bad the windows update just fucked up on me. :icon26:

EDIT: Nice little app. Ran my q4max demos nice. Funny, this and seismovision can handle it, but I cant for the life of me get demos to run with just q4. :icon25:

Version 0.3 released

- Switched over to the Python platform for the project. Allows freedom (free as in beer) from the .NET framework which seemed to plague many users.
- User Interface updated.
- Added a status bar to let the user know what is going on instead of pop-up messageboxs.
- Removed the "Locate Q4 directory" dialog for first time use.
- Added Playback controls option to the settings, which allows users to Pause, Resume, Slow Down, and Speed up demos while viewing them. (See Playback Controls section for more details)
- Cleaned up alot of code to make the program more efficient.

Excellent work, mines not working though.

Is it possible to rename demos without starting Quake?

Does recording the demo slow down your computer like it does in Doom 3?

You mean rename the a q4 demo file name?

ex: funktion_duel.netdemo -> funktion_sucks.netdemo ?

Version 0.4.1 released

- q4replay now automatically detects your Quake4 directory, no more locating it yourself.
- Added a feature to allow users to double click on .NETDEMO files and q4replay will automatically load the .NETDEMO (works with .NETDEMOS in .ZIP/.RAR files)
- Added a feature (PK4 Check) to allow users to check if they have the necessary files to view a demo and lists the files.
- Added a feature (.cfg Extract 'Thanks to Stas "Unreal" Starkov <stas_@mail.rb.ru>') which allows users to view all the players/server configurations from a netdemo.
- Added a custom mod input to the 'Mod Selection'. Users can now load demos in a mod of their choice.
- Added a feature so if a user loads a q4max/battle .NETDEMO, q4replay will automatically recognize it and select the proper mod automatically.
- Added a program installer (NSIS) so you don't have to unzip q4replay or create shortcuts. The installer makes life easier.
- Updated the User Interface to be a little more roomy and fixed some display bugs.
- Fixed a bug where a user didn't have "Your-Quake4-install/q4base/demos" directory, thus preventing demo views.

If your getting a dos screen flash, i'm gonna bet you have your Q4 install on a drive not named C: thus the bat file isn't able to locate the proper directory.

This issue is being taken care of and is being hotfixed at this moment.

**UPDATE: Issues have been HOTFIXED.

Just wanted to say nice job on this. It seems to be pretty solid and user-friendly at this point. :icon14:
