dwas Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Hi. My first post. Why isn't there (or is it?) any way to have a complete recording of an entire battle and replay it in CMBB/CMBO? I think this would be such a cool feature. It ought to be possible to "save" a game in its finished form for posting/uploading so we can watch battles after they have been played, just like the movies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What your requesting is not available, why, I'm not sure. It has been requested many times and keeps getting shot down or ignored. I'm sure someone will step up and explain it. Welcome, and yes it would be cool. KC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 I think this is addressed in the newbie FAQ. If not, it most certainly should. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 You Guys are so right. War is hell and there'd be nothing like watching the whole thing just like reel to reel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 hi dwas, this is the forum & you're welcome to it. my first post was the same question as yours & i got the same answer. what i still don't understand is, the game looks like it produces a file/could produce a file to run the movie from. therefore why can't we have a folder with the current files in? then the engine could just go through them all. hhhenyway, it's not going to be addressed soon but Battlefront (the developers) are re-writting the engine from the ground up & i think that this feature will be in it. search for CMX2 feature request threads to see everything else on the wish list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 Shorthand answer, repeated often by BFC. Game engine wasn't designed for it. Can't be done, can't be added. I'm sure there's some tech-head out there that knows how to record the contents of their computer screen to video in real-time. Then one would rewind and edit. Not exactly an elegant solution and I haven't heard of anyone doing it yet.. [ May 09, 2003, 03:36 PM: Message edited by: MikeyD ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
