Source recorder in Half-Life 1 source

Yesterday I tried to use the demo recorder in Half-Life 1 Source. The recording went just well, but when I try to open the demo in any way, including demoui, the game just freezes, and stops working. Is this an issue with the rest of you or just me?

Try getting a different source recorder. Don’t know what else to tell you. Sorry!

:facepalm:

Source recorder is included with Half Life 1 Source, so I can’t switch it.:fffuuu:

Maybe, but you can use different programs instead. Anyway, have you tried testing it within other source games? Is it just Half Life, or is it a problem with all of them.

Works for me, but I’ve got the non-steam version of hls…

You can download different ones.

Wait, wait wait!
Are you using HL: Source, or the original Half-life 1 (goldsource engine)? I think that might make helping you easier. AFAIK, the goldsource demo recorder is very buggy, I’ve had odd things happen while watching demos with it.

[noparse]I’ve heard of the problem before.
Apparently it works if you play it back from HL:S deathmatch.[/noparse]
