abuse-vs-i$-sim-shag-hof-ogl

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.

abuse-vs-i$-sim-hof.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 24,748 server packets, 54,436 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

This demo pretty much sucked. But I was asked to upload it, The ending is pretty sweet tho. (We win with 1.7 secs left. Pretty insane.) Also you'll see the inventory screen pops up on me, tho I wasnt near a RIS and my invo key is bound to home so I did not accidently hit it. Enjoy the end.
