StormCyko public BS 0628

A Tribes 1 client demo — the server’s own packet stream as one player recorded it. The match record below was decoded out of that stream. Anything read off the filename instead is in its own box, and says so.

This plays the recording with the actual Tribes engine, compiled to WebAssembly — the same playDemo() path the game itself uses. The engine is about 7 MB; it then streams just the game data this recording touches from the archive, as it touches it. Every piece is cached and shared across the site, so a second demo on the same map costs almost nothing. Nothing is fetched until you press play.

StormCyko_public_BS_0628.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 12,634 server packets, 44,187 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

WARNING: The following demo contains near constant lag, please view with caution. StormCyko recomends viewing this demo with a strong stomach.
---------------------------------------

This is a demo of myself playing offense in a public server at BroadSide. Throughout the demo I mainly attacked the main entrance of the enemy base, 'nade-launcher blazing, mines dropping.
I actually capped the first flag of the game with my 550ms+ ping ;)
I attacked the enemy base by skiing in that little dent in the hill between the two bases. Towards the end of the demo I began to stuff up alot, this was mostly due to unexpected lag spikes while skiing.
I think I did fairly well with the lag I was getting ;)

It also shows 4 enemys raping me on the middle hill, some shot leading (lagged) and some guy sniping me in mid-air.

PS: I live in very remote town in Australia, I use the only ISP in my town. It sucks majorly, if you have a friend who owns a Cable company or has a significant job in Telstra, feel free to let them improve the internet services in my town :(
