How to use BattleRecorder
All battlefield 2 servers have BFrecorder enabled.
How to download recorded rounds (all players)
(supporting members)
Here are some controls while watching the battle and ways to convert the recorded battle as an avi. (courtesy of PlanetBattlefield http://www.planetbattlefield.com/bf2/game/bfrecorder/) Quote:

Re: How to use BattleRecorder
When I try this it doesn't work as described above. It looks for the demo file in some subset of folders, not in the "Demos" folder that I created.
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2>demo.cmd +c demo0 mydemocam ERROR: mods\bf2\Demos\demo0.bf2demo does not exist So I put it where it was looking for it. I got the camera file created, but then when going to render, it locks up trying to load the map, It never lets me select an encoder (never saw that popup box). Is there some better way to make movie files? I'd like to make some movie files from some battlerecorder files. Any ideas? Last edited by JMJ; 08-28-2005 at 06:57 PM. |

To see the popup you need to ALT-TAB to your desktop and mimimise any programs ontop of the desktop. I could not find it either the first time but it apeared underneath the programs. Only problem I got was that my mouse pointer won't work in the popup, so I have to select the setting with the arrow-keys and TAB. BTW when you want to use slowmotions in your video you have to select this while recording it to disk. The program does not use any slowmo's or speedups you created while recording you cam-movements. All in all I don't really like the BR, the biggest problem I have with it is that you can't skip part of the recording, so you have to record the complete camerasession (up to the part you would like to use). Then render everything to disk and THEN cut the part you like with an video-editor...........Oh my, have you ever tried to edit a 2Gb file??? So SARC's idea about Fraps is not that bad. Hope this helps you.

Re: How to use BattleRecorder
When I go to the Community tab, theres a few files listed, but none from TG
I tried downloading these but it said "Could not find host" or something like that The same files are there everytime, none new are added.

Re: How to use BattleRecorder
you have to download them pretty soon after the game is completed because servers will remove them as they take a lot of space

Re: How to use BattleRecorder
So if I have a battlecorder file I can send it to someone else?

Re: How to use BattleRecorder
The server has a script that "rotates" out the older recordings. You can configure how many to keep. I think the default is 30. To get a feel for the size, you can browse MA's demo collection here:
http://matureasskickers.net/MISC/bf2demos/ You don't find 64-player demos because the recorder CPU cost gets exponentionally higher with more players and the server lags too much when 64 players are present.

Yes. The demos are under "My Documents\Battlefield 2\Profiles\Default\Demos" Remove it, copy it or do whatever you like with it. There is no way of sending them ingame if thats what you mean? Use AIM, Messenger, File sharing, email, hosting or anything else you can think of to get the file to the other person. |
