Title: Replay (under advanced in Setup)
Post by: Hollister Man on Fri 12/12/2003 04:40:57
I searched the old posts and the tutorial, and it IS possible that I missed something, but...

[glow=red, 1, 1] What is this supposed to do? [/glow] Replay, that is...

Is it designed to record actions and then replay them?  If so, how does it work?

Yeah, recording the actions. Use Alt-R to start recording.

EDIT: press again to stop recording. Then you can play the recorded file via specifying it in the AGS setup menu.

The feature is unofficial though.

~Cheers

Yep - it's unofficial because it is still buggy and the playback can get out of sync after a while (it tended to work for about 5-10 minutes then mess up).

It was originally designed to allow live walkthroughs of games, but in its current state it's only really good for demonstrating bugs or recording short pieces of your gameplay.

Thanks.  Actually, I was mainly asking for info, not because I needed it.  It just happens that in the game I am working on, it is a convenient explanation for a a particular plot occurrance.  (If I said more, I'd have to kill you 8) )
