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.

Readme — elenex_E5-KBD_IR.txt (from the archive itself)
This is from about a month ago I guess. Definitely
the most intense map I've ever played. I do alright,
messed up one or two runs but for the most part it
went well.

Warning: there's a LOT of talk in this because of
the OT intermissions, and I get a little off track
at points in the stalemates, and in the 2nd OT we
just decided to skip the stalemate and all, so just
restarted on a 3rd OT.

This is a fun demo IMO, shows quite a bit of downtime
for me, but when we do get a run going it works quite
well. Made a few mistakes, but I felt I made up for
them in the long run. Enjoy.
