Hi there, need some help
« on: January 23, 2013, 11:53:24 AM »
Hey everyone, My apologizes if I posted this in the wrong section

I have never demo recorded before, I heard there was a good guide/guides on how to get started messing around with demo record from scratch, I have the latest City of heroes from scratch, and know where to get Codewalkers "Icon"

Can anyone give me some useful links on how to get started with this?

Thank you :D
Awaiting the day I can return to my childhood-created hero :)

Yes, you're definitely in the wrong section. I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with the threads to properly answer your query but I think it's likely you can find everything you're looking for here:

Happy demo recording.

Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder

Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive

What Arachnion said.

I will add, however, that at this point, without a live game, you can mostly only Demo Edit and not actually Demo Record.

This basically means you'll be spending a lot of time text editing and using math to plot positional coordinates.

I'd also recommend downloading ALL THE MOVs as they are indispensable for identifying what each MOV command does.
