Zdoom recording demos

Recommended Posts

So I'm aware zdoom isn't the preferred way of recording demos, but since it works, I would rather do it this way right now. I'm doing this with a batch file I made and the problem is that it records my movements but when I play back the demo it shows Doom 2, not the pwad I'm playing.

 

Here's the batch file text:

zdoom -iwad doom2.wad -file ask1am.wad -record 0demofile -skill 3

 

Please help me figure this out. I have Doom 2 and ask1am in the same directory as zdoom.

I'm guessing the demo file doesn't record what WADs it was recorded with. Vanilla demos don't. Are you specifying both the -iwad and the -file when playing it back?

Use:

zdoom -iwad doom2.wad -file ask1am.wad -playdemo 0demofile

Of course not. You need to load the map along with the demo. If using drag&drop you need to drag both, then it should work
