ievscore

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.

IEvsCore.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 26,323 server packets, 85,054 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

Readme — readme.txt (from the archive itself)
This is a demo of the Core playing Imperial Elite on September 8, 1999, 
from the viewpoint of flagger old_skul. We played Iceridge on Diamond Sword, 
and Snowblind on Diamond Sword.

This demo demonstrates IE's prowess on offense and defense a bit, 
but also is a strong recommendation for a good connection :) This 
demo should seal my fate to never be invited to join another tribe...
these dudes make it obvious that they're from another planet.

Enjoy,
