What is HLTV?
Half-Life TV offers the ability to have an unlimited number of spectators watching online games.Or you can even record for future.
How to Record?
HLTV demo files are like normal recorded games in Half-Life, but you can
choose any view point, view mode or player to chase during replay. To play
back a HLTV demo, a HLTV proxy is not needed. Just start Half-Life and type in console “playdemo ” or “viewdemo demoname>” (viewdemo offers more options during playback like fast forward/backward, pause & slowmotion). To record a HLTV demo, connect the proxy to a game server and type in console:
>record
The demo files will
be saved in the current Mod directory, e.g. \cstrike. All demo files have a
special naming convention –.dem, including the
given name, date/time and map name. Demo files record the same data as send
to spectator clients. That means also, the demo file records the game with
the same delay as used for spectators. To verify, that a demo file is
recorded use the “status” command. The recording may be stopped with
“stoprecording”.
