TF vs Vup RD CW

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.

Watch it

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.

TF_vs_Vup_RD_CW.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 14,383 server packets, 50,679 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

This is the 3rd map in Team Fusion's OGL match with VuP in late 1999.
The map is Raindance, I start off as fatty on the flag and do a little O and switch back.
I get an awesome shot around the 13:00 mark, where I'm flying into our base to suit up, and fire an impulse disc at Cobra stealing our flag on the flagstand, and when I got into the base i saw the message saying it hit ;)  

The 2nd map in this series was IR, which VuP won (1-0 i think).  I do not have a demo as the server was super unstable and I had to join via IP so it was not feasible for me to be concerned with it.  I wish I had it cuz I'd love to post a demo where people can see VuP "pulling a VuP"  and turtling up on IR.

I posted this one especially for noodles =)  he was pissin' flame that day.
