    You should be able from the community tab provided you played that round.

    What error message do you get ?

    The error says:

    <Failed to find the file on the server>

    I would load up a screen shot, but the forum denies me the right to post URLs.

    Re: Can't Download Battlerecorder demo

    At what time did the round end ?

    Can you download other BR files from yesterday (the one before, the one after) ?

    Did the server crash after that round ?

    Yes I can download other files.

    No the server did not crash.

    No the round did not end early.

    It was a Al Barah round some time around 2AM last night.

    speaking of bfr files... i had a really good time a few nites ago and dl'd the bfr file. I'd like to share it with the squad I was in. How do i give them all access to it without giving away the supporting members access area.

    The demos tend to get mixed up. Download anything remotely similar, none of the files will be labelled correctly in my experience


    If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have obviously failed to plan properly.

    Little different question:
    I dl'd the BR file from the archives here on TG.
    How am I able to watch this file now. Where do I have to copy it into?
    Thx

    I figured it out.

    See, I figured the first one on the list would be the most recent game I played (which was the one I wanted to download). Unfortunately, BC lists them in reverse order, making the most recent game the last one on the list.

    Strange. The game demo I select to download is not the one I get. Then it disappears from the menu.

    I am looking for an Al Barash ending around 2AM on May 30th.

    Re: Can't Download Battlerecorder demo

    Just a FYI...

    All players can download BFR files through the community tab. This tab lists all games that you played in where BFR was enabled.

    All supporting members can download all files directly from the server, even those they did not play in.

    Also, the server only retains a fixed amount of files. These usually last two days before they are deleted. If you try to download a file through the community tab and it says file not found, this is probably why.
