Quake3World

I am having trouble play q4max demos. When i load up the demo the map screen comes up, then after it is finished loading it goes right to the main screen. I get this error in the console. "Failed to spawn entity with classname 'player_ui_anims' of type 'idPlayer'." Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong?

You usually get that if you're trying to load a none q4max demo (vanilla or x-battle) in q4max, or vice-versa. Might even be that the demo was recorded on an older version of q4max which, IIRC aren't compatible.

EDIT: Just tried playing a q4max 0.5 demo on the new leaked version and I get the same error.

Use demo_enforcefs 1 until Raven fixes the demo system's tendancy to trip on anything that sticks from the ground
Of course this means you need the old paks from whichever mod you're using, in that mod's directory.
And the maps - required paks are listed in the demos in case you're missing something but don't know what that is.

(this applies to recording/playing back demos with any mod)

by the wtch this is happening on demos i have recorded. yes i am using recordnetdemo. this is weird...
