The Green Herring Posted September 27, 2007 So I started to record a PrBoom-plus TAS demo on a PWAD. Slowdown, automated Strafe50, Strafe50 on turns. Peachy-keen, right? I end up wanting to do a part over again. The first attempt was recorded with these command line arguments: glboom-plus.exe -iwad doom2.wad -file <Doom II PWAD> -skill 4 -warp 01 -complevel 2 -record <firstdemo> For the second attempt, I specified these command line arguments: glboom-plus.exe -iwad doom2.wad -file <Doom II PWAD> -skill 4 -warp 01 -complevel 2 -recordfrom <firstdemo> <seconddemo> And what do I get? "INCOMPATIBLE SAVEGAME!!! WADS EXPECTED: C:\DOOM\PRBOOM-PLUS\DOOM.WAD C:\DOOM\PRBOOM-PLUS\DOOM.GWA $$$ALL_IN_ONE_LUMP$$$.WAD $$$ALL_IN_ONE_LUMP$$$.GWA ARE YOU SURE?" All this, even though I specified DOOM2.WAD as my IWAD. What am I supposed to do? 0 Share this post Link to post
RamboBones Posted September 27, 2007 If your doing recordfrom then you shouldn't have -warp or -skill included as they don't make sense when your recording from another demo. Aside from that it may not like -complevel 2, I'm not sure but it's worth trying a different compatibility mode. 0 Share this post Link to post

I didn't notice the command line argument was different for PrBoom+. Thank you so much for the clarification! :) Be sure to watch Miscellaneous Demos for my first TAS soon. EDIT: Got the newest version, too. Had 2.4.8.1 before. 0 Share this post Link to post
entryway Posted September 27, 2007 Be sure to watch Miscellaneous Demos for my first TAS soon Lower your sensitivity twice if you use slowmo. Permanently watch your unfinished demo on normal speed and without "smooth demo playback" to avoid jerky movements in other compatible ports and vanilla 0 Share this post Link to post
