Demo Recording & Playback

Open the totalchaos gamedata folder.

Make a .bat file named DemoRecord & paste:
*gzdoom -iwad doom.wad -file totalchaos.pk3 -warp 1 -record demofilename*

Make a .bat file named DemoPlayback & paste:
*gzdoom -iwad doom.wad -file totalchaos.pk3 -playdemo demofilename*
(or use the in-game console and type *playdemo demofilename*)

Alternatively, use Shift+F10 or Shift+RMB and click "Open command window here" and paste the commands in cmd.
For Powershell, it will ask to use ".\" before the commands.

Notes about recording:
• Demo recording doesn't end until the game closes/shutsdown. When a run is finished close the game and re-open using the command or .bat file.
• The ESC menu or other settings menus won't pause the game while demo recording. The Pause Break key will pause the game and show up in the demo.

=========================================================================

Ideal demo filenaming (similar to DSDArchive's)
The demo filename should be labeled with:
• Game version (tc,tcr,tcdc,tcdcr)
• Category (bad end/good end/ng+)
• No major skips (if applicable)
• Time (MMSS or HMMSS)

Example filenames with No Major Skips:
tc-?-nms-Time
tcr-?-nms-Time
tcdc-?-nms-Time
tcdcr-?-nms-Time

Replace ? with b=Bad Ending, g=Good Ending, n=New Game+
(except tcr doesn't have ng+ so 'tcr-n-Time' & 'tcr-n-nms-Time' would be invalid.)

Include a .txt with the same filename as the demo's with more information such as:
Player: name
Date: YYYY-MM-DD
Iwad: doom.wad
File: totalchaos.pk3
Game: TC 1.0/TC Retro 1.0/TCDC 1.32/TCDC Retro 1.33
Map: All Chapters
Category: Bad Ending/Good Ending/New Game+ (with No Major Skips; if applicable)
Sourceport: GZDoom g3.6.0
Time: MM:SS
